Background: Understanding the adaptative changes in bone shapes among animals involves studying bone morphology. We examined adult hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius)forelimb bones at the anatomy laboratory of Patuakhali Science and Technology University, Bangladesh. Samples were collected from Rangpur Recreation Park and Zoo between September 2021 and July 2022.
Methods: Bones were processed by removing mud and boiled with water. Subsequently, hydrogen peroxide was used for one and a half hours to remove any remaining muscular tissues from the bones. Following this, the bones were air-dried under sunlight for a month. Measurements of key parameters including length, height, width, circumference, and weight were obtained using calibrated instruments, thereby ensuring precision.
Results:The scapula displayed a pronounced and elongated spine – the spina scapulae – that demarcated the lateral surface into two distinct fossae: the supraspinous fossa and the infraspinous fossa. The distal expansion of the spine, known as the acromion process, consisted of the fused hamate process and suprahamate process. The head of humerus was round and featured two undivided tubercles: the greater or major and the lesser tubercle. On the medial surface, a small and shallow radial fossa was observed, while on the opposite side, a large and deep olecranon fossa was present. The proximal surface of the radius head exhibited concave fovea capitis radii, which articulated with the lateral condyle of the humerus. The shaft of the radius was slightly expanded in the cranio-caudal direction. Similarly, the shaft of the ulnahad a somewhat triangular shape, resembling the shape of the radius shaft. Medially, it had a convex facet that articulated with the radius, and cranially, the interosseous space between the radius and ulna was longer than the caudal view.
Conclusions: The unique anatomical features and morphometric measurements of the forelimb bones in hippos can be beneficial for identification, radiographic interpretation, and forensic investigation. Furthermore, this study provides essential guidelines and insights for understanding appropriate anatomical parameters.

KLİMENT YEFREMOVİÇ VOROŞİLOV’UN GÖZÜNDEN 1939 YILI SSCB ORDUSU: PERSONEL, ASKERİ EĞİTİM VE ASKERİ HAVACILIK
Authors: CAN Aykut
Published: August 2023

Bu makale, Kliment Yefremoviç Voroşilov’un, 10-21 Mart 1939 tarihinde gerçekleştirilen Komünist Parti 18. Kongresi’nde, 1934’ten 1939’a kadar Sovyet Sosyalist Cumhuriyetler Birliği (SSCB) ordusunda yapılan reformlar, ordunun o günkü durumu, askeri havacılığı ve askeri eğitimine dair görüş ve Voroşilov’un 1934-1939 yılları arasına dair mukayeselerini ihtiva eden konuşması; bu konuşmaya dair Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Moskova Büyükelçiliği tarafından yapılmış tafsilatın, Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Hariciye Vekaleti ve Erkan-ı Harbiyesi’ne bildirilmesini gösteren arşiv belgesi ile ilgilidir.

Çalışmada, arşiv belgesiyle Voroşilov’un kongredeki konuşmasının birbiriyle olan ilişkisi incelenmiştir. Ayrıca Moskova’daki büyükelçiliğin bu konuşmayı Türkiye’ye çok hızlı bir şekilde bildirmesine dikkat çekilmiştir. Konuşmanın ilgili kısımlarının Türkçe’ye tercümesi yapılarak, Voroşilov’un konuşmasının içerisindeki Sovyet askeri havacılığına dair öne çıkan hususlar konuyla ilgilenen araştırmacıların istifadesine sunulmuştur. Bu çalışma aynı zamanda II. Dünya Savaşı öncesi atmosferin Sovyetlerce nasıl göründüğünü de üst düzey bir Sovyet askerinin gözünden ortaya koymaktadır.

Arşiv belgesinde Voroşilov’un sadece askeri havacılığa dair bir konuşma yaptığı belirtilse de yapılan incelemede belgede belirtildiğinin aksine Voroşilov’un, sadece havacılık ile kısıtlı bir konuşma yapmadığı; ordu-siyaset ilişkisinden çeşitli diğer konularla beraber özellikle Sovyet ordusunun 1939’daki personel ve teçhizatının sayısı ve niteliği, personelin özlük, sosyal ve mali hakları ile askeri okul ve eğitimlerin 1934’e göre kıyaslamasına kadar geniş kapsamlı bir konuşma yaptığı tespit edilmiştir.

Makalenin temel kaynaklarını, Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Dışişleri Bakanlığı, Türk Diplomatik Arşivinde tespit ettiğimiz ve Moskova Büyükelçisi Zekai Apaydın imzalı “Sovyet askerî tayyareciliği hakkında Voroşilof’un nutkunda münderiç malumatı tenvire medar olacak tafsilatı aşağıda arzediyorum” cümlesiyle başlayan 21 Mart 1939 tarihli belge ve Komünist Parti 18. Kongresi’nde yapılmış tüm konuşmaların yayınlandığı, 1939 senesinde Moskova’da, Sovyetlerin yabancı dilde yayın merkezi olan Foreign Languages Publishing House tarafından İngilizce basılan The Land Of Socialism Today and Tomorrow adlı kitap teşkil etmiştir

Beden dili iletişimin en ilkel ve hala en güncel biçimidir. İnsanlar, bilinçli veya bilinçsiz bir şekilde bedenleri ile başkalarına çeşitli mesajlar verirler. Sözel olmayan bu davranışlar insan ilişkilerinde büyük önem taşır. Sözlü iletişimi destekleyen bazen de yerine geçen beden dili, iletişim ortamlarında bir rehber, bir pusula gibi yön gösterici bir niteliğe sahiptir.

İletişimin en önemli detaylarından olan beden dili ve sözsüz iletişim unsurları akademik yazın alanında dikkat çeken konulardan biridir. Yalnızca iletişim bilimleri değil sosyal bilimler alanında, psikoloji, sosyoloji, sağlık bilimleri, eğitim bilimleri, beden eğitimi, ilahiyat, iktisat gibi pek çok bilim dalı, insanın bedeni aracılığıyla verdiği mesajların bireysel, toplumsal ve mesleki etkilerini araştırmaktadır. Yapılan çalışmalar, bilimsel zenginliği artırmakla beraber bahsi edilen kavramın sınırlarını da genişletmektedir.

Benthic macrofauna under extremes
Authors:   , Zhou Zhengquan
Published: August 2023

Extreme weather events are increasing in intensity, duration, and frequency, and threatening tidal flat ecosystems due to global climate change. Benthic macrofauna plays essential roles in biogeomorphic feedback as ecosystem engineers, yet they are prone to extreme environmental fluctuations in storms and drying tidal regimes. Moreover, modern globalization has accelerated the invasion of introduced species, which compete with native species for natural resources. Therefore, studying how benthic macrofauna responds to climate-change-induced extreme weather events may convey an essential message on short-term equilibrium and the long-term development of tidal flat ecosystems.
A mesocosm system was designed and customized in the lab to mimic the heatwaves with contrasting magnitudes and durations on tidal flats. Simulated heatwaves were imposed on the model bioturbator species Cerastoderma edule living in different micro-topographies and sediment types, to study the response of bioturbation activities under thermal stress (Chapters 2 & 3). Besides individual-level response, an in-situ experiment was applied to study the effects of repeated storm events on benthic community structure, using a raking treatment to mimic storm-induced sediment disturbance (Chapter 4). Moreover, the effects of compound extreme weather events on species shift were studied by imposing different salinity settings and heatwave profiles on the native C. edule and an introduced bivalve Ruditapes philippinarum (Chapters 5).
Macrobenthos' response on the individual level is categorized into the “fight, flight, or freeze” framework. Bioturbators increase metabolic rates to “fight” against the thermal stress and maintain optimal physiological conditions (Chapters 2); they burrowed deeper during low tide to escape from (“flight”) the thermal stress, thereby causing more sediment mixings (Chapters 2 & 3); they reduce activity and metabolism (“freeze”) to maintain basic physiological functions under acute extreme stress or long-term intermediate stress (Chapter 5). On the community level, internal environmental stress can select species with specific biological traits, while species with unfitting traits decrease in abundance (Chapter 4). Moreover, compound extreme weather events may create “disturbance-driven establishing windows” that benefit the introduced species to overtake native species (Chapter 5).
Wearable wireless continuous vital signs monitoring on the general ward
Authors:   , Leenen Jobbe Pierre Lucien
Published: August 2023

Patients on general wards are at risk of complications, often associated with deviations in vital signs. Unfortunately, the currently used manual method of intermittently measuring vital signs is not optimal, potentially leading to late recognition and treatment of complications, and sometimes with serious consequences such as intensive care admissions and even death. A possible solution may be wearable, wireless sensors that can continuously monitor vital signs (CMVS), but large-scale evaluation and successful implementation have not yet been described.
This thesis aimed to gain a deeper understanding of the essential elements of CMVS, the crucial aspects of the implementation process, and the potential benefits of such systems for patient care, all with an emphasis on the nurse's perspective, as a prelude to further development and future implementations.
The findings highlight the complexity of implementing CMVS on general wards and underline the need for further development and studies to assess actual clinical value and cost-effectiveness. Due to the current early stage of technology development, implementation remains a serious challenge. Nurses have an essential role in the successful deployment of CMVF on regular wards and are key to their success.
Wearable continuous vital signs monitoring technology is expected to mature further in the coming years, enabling continuous monitoring of all relevant vital signs, enabling software to integrate seamlessly with hospital IT systems and providing personalised clinical decision support. If properly implemented, such evolving systems promise to significantly improve the future quality, safety and efficiency of patient care, both inside and also outside the hospital.

Published: August 2023

This research reviews YouTube content creators who take advantage of interactions with foreigners on the OmeTV platform in Indonesia. Researchers focus on the production and distribution of foreign and local content through the phenomenon of casual conversation as a form of capitalization. Previous researchers had the limitation that social media studies were subject to commodification (Fuchs, 2014b, 2019). In this study, researchers consider that content creators play an important role in commodifying content because YouTube is a channel that facilitates the formation of popularity. This assumption is based on the argument that playlabor is voluntary while seeking pleasure in the social media space (Fuchs, 2014a). This text revived media production by linking it to cultural studies (Hesmondhalgh & Toynbee, 2008). This research aims to explain how content creators as well as OmeTV players commodify foreign and local content to gain economic benefits. Researchers used the method of content analysis and phenomenology. Content analysis aims to identify forms of content, while phenomenology is to explain the process of commodification and production relations between the OmeTV and YouTube platforms. The results of this study reveal that the commodification of foreign and local content with the seduction genre has become popular content that benefits YouTubers. In reproducing content, OmeTV players prepare verbal and nonverbal seduction communication strategies

REFORMULASI SISTEM PERENCANAAN PEMBANGUNAN NASIONAL DENGAN MODEL GBHN SEBAGAI HALUAN NEGARA
Authors: Setiawan Otto Trengginas
Published: August 2023

The change in the status of the MPR from the highest state institution to a state institution has eliminated the role of the MPR in setting outlines for state policy. Reformation does provide a political spirit and a new perspective as reflected in the amendments to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, but the resulting impact is the loss of the continuity between the government and regional governments, and at every change of President. This is reflected in the vision, mission, and work program of the elected President (which is further formulated as the National RPJM / RPJMN) which turns out that in several ways (regarding the material and direction of program achievement) it is different from the vision, mission and work program of the Regional Head (Governor, Regent and Mayor) are elected, and there is no legal consequence whatsoever, because there is no single norm that regulates it. The method used in this paper is a political research method that departs from an analysis of political ideas, political institutions, political attitudes and behavior, as well as policy decision makers and political networks. The purpose of this research is to find out what form of law is most appropriate forbringing back GBHN in the Indonesian constitutional system, which institution is most appropriate for producing the GBHN, and through what kind of mechanism is the most appropriate. Therefore, the results of the analysis in this paper are to ensure the continuity of development in Indonesia today, urging the need to re-attend the State Policy Guidelines in the form of MPR Decrees produced by the MPR through the amendment mechanism of the 1945 NRI Constitution.

Political communication is a crucial element that must exist among political actors because political communication can build the image of political actors in the eyes of society. Moreover, the presidential election in Indonesia will take place in about two years. Various issues regarding who will become the candidate pair in the 2024 Presidential Election have been frequently discussed by the media and the public. Various names of political figures are predicted to run for office in 2024. Various responses and public opinion regarding political actors also varied. Some voluntarily supported and some even openly disapproved of the issue of the intended political actor nominating himself in the 2024 presidential election. One example of such a political actor is Anies Baswedan. Anies himself is an example of a political actor who often uses social media to convey his political communications. Social media was chosen because it is the most accessible platform for two-way communication. Therefore, here we will analyze Anies Baswedan's style of political communication on social media and public opinion given by the public.

This study identifies the factors that prevent women in Indonesia from achieving elected office in the provincial level in Indonesia. The results showed that lack of access to financial resources, internal party politics, and women's marital status can be barriers to women achieving elected office. However, access to social and political networks that provide women with key resources, belonging to the dominant religion in your region, and age lead women to greater political success. These findings are based on the interpretation of statistical correlations and content analysis results from in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. The aim of this research is to provide evidence-based findings and recommendations, which can be used to increase the electability of women political candidates in elections.
Bovine heat stress management: current amelioration approaches and the case for a novel mitogenomic strategy
Authors: Scerri Tiarna Macey , Lomax Sabrina , Clark Cameron Edward Fisher
Published: August 2023

An expansive body of literature is dedicated to addressing the multi-faceted issue of bovine heat stress. This review firstly evaluated existing knowledge about the acute bovine heat stress response. Despite these papers being comprehensive, minor research gaps and biases somewhat limit their applicability. Categorising current management strategies under either a ‘reactive’ or ‘preventative’ approach, the review also evaluated the utility of strategies within each approach. Strategies that achieve individualised symptom detection and treatment were found to be the most practically effective reactive strategies. Genotypes that functionally increase the stability of proteins involved in the heat stress response and therefore increase an animal’s capacity for heat tolerance were identified as being among the most promising preventative strategies. Both approaches are generally limited by significant implementation costs for farmers and a lack of literature comparison between strategies for the best management outcome. A strong case is provided for further investigation into the role of mitochondrial genotypes for improved cattle heat tolerance. Overall, the review provides a balanced assessment of progress within heat stress scholarship and tenders a novel perspective that will inform further original work.
Automatic mechanistic inference from large families of Boolean models generated by Monte Carlo tree search
Authors: Glazer Bryan J. , Lifferth Jonathan T. , Lopez Carlos F.
Published: August 2023

Many important processes in biology, such as signaling and gene regulation, can be described using logic models. These logic models are typically built to behaviorally emulate experimentally observed phenotypes, which are assumed to be steady states of a biological system. Most models are built by hand and therefore researchers are only able to consider one or perhaps a few potential mechanisms. We present a method to automatically synthesize Boolean logic models with a specified set of steady states. Our method, called MC-Boomer, is based on Monte Carlo Tree Search an efficient, parallel search method using reinforcement learning. Our approach enables users to constrain the model search space using prior knowledge or biochemical interaction databases, thus leading to generation of biologically plausible mechanistic hypotheses. Our approach can generate very large numbers of data-consistent models. To help develop mechanistic insight from these models, we developed analytical tools for multi-model inference and model selection. These tools reveal the key sets of interactions that govern the behavior of the models. We demonstrate that MC-Boomer works well at reconstructing randomly generated models. Then, using single time point measurements and reasonable biological constraints, our method generates hundreds of thousands of candidate models that match experimentally validated in-vivo behaviors of the Drosophila segment polarity network. Finally we outline how our multi-model analysis procedures elucidate potentially novel biological mechanisms and provide opportunities for model-driven experimental validation.

The emergence of carbapenemase-producing Acinetobacter spp. has been widely reported and become a global threat. However, carbapenem-resistant A. johnsonii strains are relatively rare and without comprehensive genetic structure analysis, especially for isolates collected from human specimen. Here, one A. johnsonii AYTCM strain, co-producing NDM-1, OXA-58, and PER-1 enzymes, was isolated from sputum in China in 2018. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed that it was resistant to meropenem, imipenem, ceftazidime, ciprofloxacin, and cefoperazone/sulbactam. Whole-genome sequencing and bioinformatic analysis revealed that it possessed 11 plasmids. blaOXA-58 and blaPER-1 genes were located in the pAYTCM-1 plasmid. Especially, a complex class 1 integron consisted of a 5′ conserved segment (5′ CS) and 3′ CS, which was found to carry sul1, arr-3, qnrVC6, and blaPER-1 cassettes. Moreover, the blaNDM-1 gene was located in 41,087 conjugative plasmids and was quite stable even after 70 passages under antibiotics-free conditions. In addition, six prophage regions were identified. Tracking of closely related plasmids in the public database showed that pAYTCM-1 was similar to pXBB1-9, pOXA23_010062, pOXA58_010030, and pAcsw19-2 plasmids, which were collected from the strains of sewage in China. Concerning the pAYTCM-3 plasmids, results showed that strains were collected from different sources and their hosts were isolated from various countries, such as China, USA, Japan, Brazil, and Mexico, suggesting that a wide spread occurred all over the world. In conclusion, early surveillance is warranted to avoid the extensive spread of this high-risk clone in the healthcare setting.

Objective

Spontaneous isolated abdominal aortic dissection (SIAAD) is a rare aortic emergency and not yet fully understood. This study aims to report the characteristics and treatments of 31 patients with SIAAD in the past 12 years.

Methods

A total of 31 consecutive patients with SIAAD between 2010 and 2022 were included. The clinical manifestations, treatment strategies, and outcomes were reviewed. Following the SVS/STS reporting standard, we compared the clinical characteristics with different locations of primary entry, or different numbers of dissected zones. Furthermore, we compared the effects of surgical and conservative therapies on the outcome during the follow-up.

Results

Among the 31 patients with SIAAD, 16 (51.6%) were in the acute phase on admission. The primary entry of SIAAD was mainly located in Zone 9 (67.7%). Most patient presented with dissection involving 1 or 2 aortic zones (61.3%). In addition, 35.5% and 64.5% of SIAADs involved the visceral and iliac arteries, respectively. Compared with asymptomatic SIAADs, the symptomatic ones had longer dissection lengths (P = 0.008) and tended to involve iliac artery more frequently (P = 0.098). There were differences in the number of dissected aortic zones (P = 0.005) among patients with primary entry located in Zone 5 (Supraceliac aorta), Zone 6–8 (Paravisceral aorta) and Zone 9 (Infrarenal aorta). The involvement of visceral artery (P = 0.039) and iliac artery (P = 0.006) was significantly different between the subgroups of SIAAD involving one, two, and three or more aortic zones. The cumulative incidence of adverse false lumen progression events was significantly lower (P = 0.000) and the rate of false lumen thrombogenesis or disappearance was higher in patients receiving surgery (P = 0.001). The cumulative all-cause mortality was 9.7% at 1-year, and 19.7% at 5-year, with no significant difference between surgical and conservative therapies.

Conclusions

Clinical features of SIAAD vary depending on the location of the primary entry and the number of dissected aortic zones. Although surgery was not associated with a lower all-cause mortality compared with conservative therapy, it was associated with a lower incidence of adverse false lumen progression and a higher rate of aortic remodeling.

Authors: Ayati Aryan , Toofaninejad Neda , Hosseinsabet Ali , Mohammadi Fatemeh , Hosseini Kaveh
Published: August 2023

Background

Ruptured sinus of Valsalva (RSOV) is a rare pathology, and current data regarding its symptoms, anatomy, associated pathologies, and appropriate therapeutic approaches are scarce. Transcatheter closure (TCC) has been performed in multiple cases; however, the information on its success rate and complications is limited.

Methods

Two independent reviewers performed an advanced search based on inclusion criteria on Scopus, PubMed, and Embase from January 1985 through July 2022. The main search terms were “Sinus of Valsalva”, “Rupture/Aneurysm”, and “Transcatheter/Catheter/Device”.

Results

Totally, 1,017 relevant articles from the 3 databases were retrieved. After the final review and appraisal, 94 articles describing 407 patients who underwent the TCC of RSOV were included. Males comprised 65% of the studied patients, and the average age was 34.5 years. The total success rate of TCC was 95.6%. Forty-nine patients (12%) developed complications, the most significant of which were sustained residual shunts in 7 patients (1.7%), substantial new onset or progression of aortic insufficiency in 6 (1.5%), and RSOV recurrence in 6 (1.5%). Post-interventional mortality was reported in only 2 patients (0.5%).

Conclusions

The present study is the first systematic review of available data regarding the TCC of RSOV principally comprising case series and case reports. Although TCC seems a good option, precise patient selection is mandatory.

Published: August 2023

Background

The accurate etiology of mitral valve aneurysm (MVA) formation is not completely understood, and the most effective management approach for this condition remains controversial.

Methods

We retrospectively analyzed 20 MVA patients who underwent either surgical interventions or conservative follow-ups at the Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University between 2017 and 2021. We examined their clinical, echocardiographic, and surgical records and tracked their long-term outcomes.

Results

Of the 20 patients, 12 were diagnosed with MVA using transthoracic echocardiography, seven required additional transesophageal echocardiography for a more definitive diagnosis, and one child was diagnosed during surgery. In all these patients, the MVAs were detected in the anterior mitral leaflet. We found that 15 patients (75%) were associated with infective endocarditis (IE), whereas the remaining patients were associated with bicuspid aortic valve and moderate aortic regurgitation (AR) and mild aortic stenosis (5%), congenital heart disease (5%), elderly calcified valvular disease (5%), mitral valve prolapse (5%), and unknown reasons (5%). Of the 17 patients who underwent hospital surgical interventions, two died due to severe cardiac events. The remaining 15 patients had successful surgeries and were followed up for an average of 13.0 ± 1.8 months. We observed an improvement in their New York Heart Association functional class and mitral regurgitation and AR degrees (P-value < 0.001). During follow-up, only one infant had an increased left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and left ventricular end-systolic diameter, whereas the remaining 14 patients had decreased values (P < 0.001). In addition, none of the three conservatively managed patients experienced disease progression during the 7–24 months of follow-up.

Conclusions

We recommend using echocardiography as a highly sensitive method for MVA diagnosis. Although most cases are associated with IE or AR, certain cases still require further study to determine their causes. A prompt diagnosis of MVA in patients using echocardiography can aid in its timely management.
Motion events in English textbooks: a cross-linguistic analysis of Path
Authors: Banaruee Hassan , Khatin-Zadeh Omid , Farsani Danyal
Published: August 2023

Understanding how motion events are encoded and retrieved across languages has significant implications for language teaching, learning, and cognitive linguistics. However, there is hardly any research in this area comparing the motion-related lexical patterning of English textbooks. To this end, this research was conducted to fill this gap. Primarily, we investigated the motion-related patterns in three textbooks taught in countries with different language classes according to motion typology. They were verb-framed (Turkish), satellite-framed (Australian English), and equipollently-framed (Persian). Three novels in each source language were analyzed to discover the effect of these languages on the development of teaching materials. This provided the research with deep insights into Talmy’s categorization. The results from the corpus displayed a weak modification of English in EFL textbooks in Iran and Turkey that might have stemmed from their source language cognitive styles. The results also indicated that the degree of emphasis onPathwas close in these three languages, which demands a revisit of Talmy’s classification.
Using organoids to investigate human endometrial receptivity

Published: August 2023

The human endometrium is only receptive to an implanting blastocyst in the mid-secretory phase of each menstrual cycle. Such time-dependent alterations in function require intricate interplay of various factors, largely coordinated by estrogen and progesterone. Abnormal endometrial receptivity is thought to contribute to two-thirds of the implantation failure in humans and therefore significantly hindering IVF success. Despite the incontrovertible importance of endometrial receptivity in implantation, the precise mechanisms involved in the regulation of endometrial receptivity remain poorly defined. This is mainly due to a lack of proper in vitro models that recapitulate the in vivo environment of the receptive human endometrium. Organoids were recently established from human endometrium with promising features to better mimic the receptive phase. Endometrial organoids show long-term expandability and the capability to preserve the structural and functional characteristics of the endometrial tissue of origin. This three-dimensional model maintains a good responsiveness to steroid hormones in vitro and replicates key morphological features of the receptive endometrium in vivo, including pinopodes and pseudostratified epithelium. Here, we review the current findings of endometrial organoid studies that have been focused on investigating endometrial receptivity and place an emphasis on methods to further refine and improve this model.

Purpose

We aimed to evaluate the risk factors and develop a prognostic nomogram of long-term low vision after diabetic vitrectomy.

Methods

This retrospective study included 186 patients (250 eyes) that underwent primary vitrectomy for proliferative diabetic retinopathy with a minimum follow-up period of one year. Patients were assigned to the training cohort (200 eyes) or validation cohort (50 eyes) at a 4:1 ratio randomly. Based on a cutoff value of 0.3 in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measurement, the training cohort was separated into groups with or without low vision. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed on preoperative systemic and ocular characteristics to develop a risk prediction model and nomogram. The calibration curve and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) were used to evaluate the calibration and discrimination of the model. The nomogram was internally validated using the bootstrapping method, and it was further verified in an external cohort.

Results

Four independent risk factors were selected by stepwise forward regression, including tractional retinal detachment (β=1.443, OR=4.235, P<0.001), symptom duration ≥6 months (β=0.954, OR=2.595, P=0.004), preoperative BCVA measurement (β=0.540, OR=1.716, P=0.033), and hypertension (β=0.645, OR=1.905, P=0.044). AUC values of 0.764 (95% CI: 0.699-0.829) in the training cohort and 0.755 (95% CI: 0.619-0.891) in the validation cohort indicated the good predictive ability of the model.

Conclusion

The prognostic nomogram established in this study is useful for predicting long-term low vision after diabetic vitrectomy.
