Development of a Personalized Mobile Mental Health Intervention for Workplace Cyberbullying Among Health Practitioners: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Study
Authors: Kim Yun Jin , Qian Linchao , Aslam Muhammad Shahzad
Published: November 2020

Background

Workplace cyberbullying harms the psychological and social functioning of professionals working in an organization and may decrease the productivity and efficiency of daily life tasks. A recent study on trainee doctors across 8 different United Kingdom National Health Service trusts found health issues and job dissatisfaction in people who have experienced workplace cyberbullying. This disabling effect is even more noticeable in low-socioeconomic communities within low-income countries. In Malaysia, there is a need to create a personalized mobile mental health intervention program for health care professionals. These programs should be directed to prevent and decrease psychosocial issues and enhance coordination among health care professionals to solve health issues in the community.

Objective

Our main objective is to study the pre-effects and posteffects of the Personalized Mobile Mental Health Intervention (PMMH-I) for workplace cyberbullying in public and private hospitals in Malaysia.

Methods

A hospital-based multimethod multi-analytic evidential approach is proposed, involving social and psychological health informatics. The project has been subdivided into 3 stages, starting with Phase 1, a prevalence study, followed by exploratory studies. Phase 2 consists of a quasi-experimental design, whereas the development of a prototype and their testing will be proposed in Phase 3. Each stage includes the use of quantitative and qualitative methods (mixed-method program), using SPSS (version 26.0; IBM Corp) and Stata (version 16.1; StataCorp) as tools for quantitative research, and NVivo (version 1.0; QSR International) and Atlas.ti (version 9.0.16; ATLAS.ti Scientific Software Development GmbH) for qualitative research.

Results

The results of this study will determine the pre- and posteffectiveness of an integrated PMMH-I for health care professionals. The prototype system platform will be developed and implemented in a public and private hospital. Results from Phase 1 will be published in 2021, followed by the implementation of Phase 2 in subsequent years.

Conclusions

This study will provide evidence and guidance regarding the implementation of a personalized mobile mental health intervention for health care professionals into routine public and private hospitals to enhance communication and resolve conflicts.

Comparing Effectiveness Between a Mobile App Program and Traditional Cognitive Behavior Therapy in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Evaluation Study
Authors: Hwang Hyunchan , Bae Sujin , Hong Ji Sun , Han Doug Hyun
Published: November 2020

Background

This study proposes a digital program for the treatment of mental illness that could increase motivation and improve learning outcomes for patients. Several studies have already applied this method by using an exposure and response prevention–inspired serious game to treat patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

Objective

We hypothesized that a mobile cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) program would be as effective in treating OCD as traditional offline CBT. In addition, the treatment efficacy in response to mobile CBT for OCD might be associated with increased brain activity within the cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical (CSTC) tract.

Methods

The digital CBT treatment program for OCD, OCfree, consists of 6 education sessions, 10 quests, and 7 casual games. Information was gathered from 27 patients with OCD (15 offline CBT and 12 OCfree CBT). During the 6-week intervention period, changes in clinical symptoms and brain function activity were analyzed.

Results

There was no significant difference in the change in OCD symptoms and depressive symptoms between the two groups. However, the OCfree group showed greater improvement in anxiety symptoms compared to the offline CBT group. Both offline CBT and OCfree CBT increased the functional connectivity within the CSTC tract in all patients with OCD. However, CBT using OCfree showed greater changes in brain connectivity within the thalamus and insula, compared to offline CBT.

Conclusions

OCfree, an OCD treatment app program, was effective in the treatment of drug-naïve patients with OCD. The treatment effects of OCfree are associated with increased brain connectivity within the CSTC tract. Multisensory stimulation by education, quests, and games in OCfree increases the activity within the thalamus and insula in patients with OCD.
Effects of Health Messages on Public Perception of E-cigarettes: An Experimental Study (Preprint)
Authors: Zhu Shu-Hong , Wong Shiushing , Gamst Anthony C. , Sun Jessica , Zhuang Yue-Lin , Wang Jijiang , Jiang Yuan
Published: November 2020

BACKGROUND

Health authorities across nations differ markedly on their position regarding electronic cigarettes. For example, the Royal College of Physicians in the United Kingdom promoted e-cigarettes as a harm-reduction alternative to cigarettes, whereas the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned against the use of e-cigarettes.

OBJECTIVE

This study tests the effects of these different policy messages on the public’s perception of e-cigarettes.

METHODS

Participants (N=20,055) were sampled from an online panel with members from 19 major Chinese cities, and were randomized into three groups.
Group 1 received brief messaging on e-cigarettes equivalent to the UK position, Group 2 received messaging equivalent to the US position, and Group 3 served as a control.Harm of cigarettes and e-cigarettes were rated on a 1–10 scale. Cigarettes smokers were asked if they intended to use e-cigarettes in a future quit attempt.

RESULTS

The group exposed to the US message rated e-cigarettes as significantly more risky than the control group, 5.87 (95%CI, 5.81-5.93) vs. 5.49 (5.43-5.55). The UK message group had a similar rating to the control, 5.42 (5.36-5.48). A lower percent of smokers in the US message group, 53.9% (51.8-56.0), intended to use e-cigarettes in future attempts to quit smoking than the control group, 60.1% (58.0-62.2), which was similar to that of the UK message group, 60.3% (58.3-62.4).

CONCLUSIONS

Messages from health authorities that cast e-cigarettes chiefly in a negative light could significantly increase the perceived risks of e-cigarettes and decrease smokers’ intentions to use e-cigarettes to quit smoking. In addressing the risk of e-cigarettes, policymakers should consider the net effect of a policy so as to maximize its potential to save lives.
The Impact of Electronic Health Record–Based Simulation During Intern Boot Camp: Interventional Study (Preprint)
Authors: Miller Matthew E , Scholl Gretchen , Corby Sky , Mohan Vishnu , Gold Jeffrey A
Published: November 2020

BACKGROUND

Accurate data retrieval is an essential part of patient care in the intensive care unit (ICU). The electronic health record (EHR) is the primary method for data storage and data review. We previously reported that residents participating in EHR-based simulations have varied and nonstandard approaches to finding data in the ICU, with subsequent errors in recognizing patient safety issues. We hypothesized that a novel EHR simulation-based training exercise would decrease EHR use variability among intervention interns, irrespective of prior EHR experience.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to understand the impact of a novel, short, high-fidelity, simulation-based EHR learning activity on the intern data gathering workflow and satisfaction.

METHODS

A total of 72 internal medicine interns across the 2018 and 2019 academic years underwent a dedicated EHR training session as part of a week-long boot camp early in their training. We collected data on previous EHR and ICU experience for all subjects. Training consisted of 1 hour of guided review of a high-fidelity, simulated ICU patient chart focusing on best navigation practices for data retrieval. Specifically, the activity focused on using high- and low-yield data visualization screens determined by expert consensus. The intervention group interns then had 20 minutes to review a new simulated patient chart before the group review. EHR screen navigation was captured using screen recording software and compared with data from existing ICU residents performing the same task on the same medical charts (N=62). Learners were surveyed immediately and 6 months after the activity to assess satisfaction and preferred EHR screen use.

RESULTS

Participants found the activity useful and enjoyable immediately and after 6 months. Intervention interns used more individual screens than reference residents (18 vs 20; P=.008), but the total number of screens used was the same (35 vs 38; P=.30). Significantly more intervention interns used the 10 most common screens (73% vs 45%; P=.001). Intervention interns used high-yield screens more often and low-yield screens less often than the reference residents, which are persistent on self-report 6 months later.

CONCLUSIONS

A short, high-fidelity, simulation-based learning activity focused on provider-specific data gathering was found to be enjoyable and to modify navigation patterns persistently. This suggests that workflow-specific simulation-based EHR training throughout training is of educational benefit to residents.

UNSTRUCTURED

We feel that the current COVID-19 crisis has created great uncertainty and anxiety among medical students. With medical school classes initially being conducted on the web and the approaching season of “the Match” (a uniform system by which residency candidates and residency programs in the United States simultaneously “match” with the aid of a computer algorithm to fill first-year and second-year postgraduate training positions accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education), the situation did not seem to be improving. The National Resident Matching Program made an official announcement on May 26, 2020, that candidates would not be required to take or pass the United States Medical Licensing Examination Step 2 Clinical Skills (CS) examination to participate in the Match. On January 26, 2021, formal discontinuation of Step 2 CS was announced; for this reason, we have provided our perspective of possible alternative solutions to the Step 2 CS examination. A successful alternative model can be implemented in future residency match seasons as well.

Aim: To isolate and identyfy keratinophilic fungi from soil samples excavated excavation area within the ancient city of Stratonikeia, Turkey and determination of their enzyme potentials. Stratonikeia, a city in the interior of Caria, located at Eskihisar Village, in the Yatagan district of Mugla province of Turkey. Methodology: Keratin bating technique was applied for isolating of dermatophytes and keratinophilic fungi. Fungal isolate were identified by phenotyping and genotyping methods. Screening of protease, keratinase, cellulose, lipase and cutinase enzyme was carried at solid medium. Results: Non-dermatophyte species, viz., Aspergillus fumigatus, Engyodontium album, Chrysosporium keratinophilum, Lecanicillium lecani and Purpureocillium lilacinum were identified. Protease, keratinase and cellulase were determined at moderate and high levels, while lipase and cutinase were not recorded. Interpretation: Non-dermatophyte strains having high keratinase, cellulase and protease activities are not only involved in pathogenesis, but also have a great ecological significance due to keratin degrading potential.

Published: November 2020

Aim: The present experiment was undertaken to compare digestive, metabolic, antioxidant enzyme activities and immuno-biochemical responses in Labeo rohita fingerlings to some commonly used phytogenic feed additives. Methodology: Eleven experimental diets were prepared by supplementing fennel, coriander, cumin, fenugreek seed, turmeric, black pepper, peeled ginger, bay leaf, peeled onion bulb or peeled garlic clove meal at 1% inclusion level along with a control diet. Four hundred and ninety-five fingerlings (average weight 6.45±0.01 g) were distributed randomly in eleven experimental groups in triplicates with a stocking density of 15 fish per tank (400 l of water). Results: Turmeric, garlic or ginger meals appeared to be more effective than onion, fenugreek, cumin, coriander, fennel, black pepper and bay leaf meals for enhancing digestive, metabolic, antioxidant enzyme activities and innate immune functions. The physio-metabolic effects of phytogenic feed additives tested in Labeo rohita fingerlings were in the order of turmeric > garlic > ginger > onion > fenugreek > cumin > coriander > fennel > black pepper > bay leaf meal. Interpretation: The enhanced digestive and metabolic enzyme activities, antioxidant function, glucose homeostasis and improved innate immune function through modulation of the haemato-biochemical profile of Labeo rohita due to feeding of specific functional compounds present in turmeric, ginger and garlic meals compare to other phytogenic additives.

Published: November 2020

Aim: Lack of location specific information on nutrition requirement and planting geometry needs of Bt cotton hybrids is creating confusion among farmers. Growing Bt hybrids with traditional knowledge or to try different combinations of nutrition and planting geometries is often non-remunerative. Therefore, studies were initiated to find out the optimum combination of planting geometry and nutritional level for better yield to be advocated among farmers. Methodology: A field experiment comprising of 4 planting geometries (PG1 :67.5 cm x 60 cm, PG2: 67.5 cm x 75 cm, PG3:100 cm x 45 cm and PG4: 100 cm x 60 cm) in main and 3 nutrient levels {NL1 :150:30:50:25 (N: P :K :Zn in kg ha-1), NL2:150:40:20:24 and NL3 :175:60:60:25} in sub plots of split plot design was conducted during 2016 and 2017 at Faridkot. Results: Among planting geometries, PG3 (3303 kg ha-1) recorded the highest seed cotton yield (SCY), while PG4 (2728 kg ha-1) recorded least despite highest bolls per plant. Though nutrition levels varied non-significantly for SCY, yet NL2 exhibited better fertilizer use efficiency (FUE), i.e., 13.64, indicative of its advantages over NL1 (11.93) and NL3 (9.77). Interpretation: Thus, based on the present study a PG of 67.5x75 cm and NL of 150:40:20:24 ( N: P :K :Zn in kg ha-1) is recommended. Productivity indices as well as economic parameters elucidate that nutrition rates could be further reduced by 86 kg ha-1 (i.e., 25:20:40:1 kg of N, P, K and Zn) which amount to 33 $ ha-1 from what farmers (NL3) are applying, without any yield loss. Present findings can reduce fertilizer cost and could save 0.13 million ton of fertilizer in ~1.54 million ha of north India alone.

Published: November 2020

Background: The incidence of allergic diseases has been rising in the
last decades. The interplay between genetic and environmental factors
underlined these complex diseases. Data concerning natural history and
risk factors associated with allergic diseases in developing Asian
countries are limited. Methods: A population-based birth cohort study
was conducted in Bangkok, Thailand. Perinatal and postnatal factors were
prospectively collected by questionnaires. Sensitization was identified
by skin prick test. Food allergy (FA) was confirmed by oral food
challenge. Results: A total of 369 mother-children pairs were enrolled
and follow-up until the age of 30 months. The cumulative incidence of
allergic diseases was 46.2%. High family income significantly increased
risk of atopic dermatitis (AD) and ever-wheezing. Maternal history of
allergic diseases and exclusive breastfeeding longer than six months
significantly increased risk of FA. Antibiotics use in infants
significantly associated with FA, ever-wheezing and rhinitis. Infants
with FA had a 6.5-fold increased risk of AD while infants with AD had an
8.5-fold increased risk of FA. AR had a 3.5-fold increased risk in
developing ever-wheezing. One-third of the subjects had aeroallergen
sensitization. Conclusion: Prevalence of allergic diseases in developing
Asian country was considerably high. AD and FA were the most prevalent
allergic diseases during the first years of life. Meanwhile, the
prevalence of wheezing and rhinitis subsequently increased over time.
High sensitization rate to aeroallergens was found in the first two
years of life. Maternal atopy, high family income, early life exposure
to antibiotics and prolonged breast-feeding increased risk of allergic
diseases in our cohort.

Published: November 2020

Endophytes are microbes found within tissues of plants in various types
of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, including those habitats with
ionizing radiation. Our study investigates the differences in
composition of bacterial and fungal endophytes associated with the
halophytic plant Kalidium schrenkianum and the effects of geochemical
factors and radiation (at low, medium, high level and control) on the
community structure of endophytic bacteria and fungi. The bacterial
class Actinobacteria and the fungal class Dothideomycetes predominated
the endophytic communities of K. schrenkianum. Aboveground parts had
higher fungal diversity while belowground parts had higher bacterial
diversity. Soil pH, total nitrogen, and organic matter showed
significant effects on the diversity of root endophytes. Radiation had
no significant effect on the abundance of different bacterial classes.
Sordariomycetes predominated the root fungal microbiota under high
radiation intensity. Differences in the endophytic communities between
aboveground and belowground parts were more than that between the
radiation levels. No significant differences were found in the
aboveground bacterial communities among the radiation levels. Radiation
showed a significant effect on the fungal co-occurrence networks.
Negative correlations were found between endophytic bacteria and fungi
in the plant. The genetic diversity of both endophytic bacteria and
fungi was higher in radioactive environments. Our findings suggest that
the endophytes associated with aboveground and belowground parts of K.
schrenkianum follow different mechanisms for community assembly and
different paradigms in stress response.

Published: November 2020

Background/Aim. Lung cancer is one of the most com-mon cancer types worldwide. More than 70% of patients are diagnosed with lung cancer in the advanced stages of the disease, with limited therapeutic options based on cytological and histopathological material. The value of cytology in diagnosing and subtyping non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is very important for modern personalized therapies. The aim of this study was to find out the concordance between cytological and histopathological diagnosis of NSCLC and the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and the positive and negative predictive value of cytology in diagnosing lung cancer. Methods. A two-year retrospective study included 169 patients with cytological diagnosis of NSCLC, who, at the same time, had small biopsy and surgical specimens for histopathological diagnoses confirmation that were compared with cytological one. Histopathological diagnosis on surgical specimens was the golden standard for evaluation concordance to the cytological diagnosis of NSCLC and evaluation accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, and the positive and negative prognostic value of cytology as a diagnostic method for detecting lung cancer. Results. This study included 129 (76.3%) male and 40 (23.7%) female patients, aged between 39 and 83, with the average of 62.53 ? 7.6. There was no statistically significant difference between the ages of different genders (p = 0.207). The most frequent diagnosis among cytological diagnoses was NSCLC in 99 (58.58%) patients. Concordance between cytological and histopathological diagnoses of surgical specimens was 61.48%. There was no statistically significant difference between cytological diagnoses and histopathological diagnoses of small biopsies specimens (p = 0.856). The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative prognostic value, and accuracy of cytology as a diagnostic method of lung cancer were 94.98%, 98.60%, 95.72%, 98.35%, and 97.71%, respectively. Conclusion. Cytological diagnosis of NSCLC is accurate, with high sensitivity, specificity, and benefits for patients. Most patients are diagnosed with advanced cancer when there is no surgical therapy option, and the only available diagnostic material is a small biopsy sampled during bronchoscopy.

Published: November 2020

Introduction. The arm replantation is an extremely rare and challenging procedure. The recognized risk is myoglobinuria and, consenquently, ischemia reperfusion-induced renal failure. Case report. We presented two patients aged 24 and 46 years who were admitted after traumatic arm amputation. Ischemia time was six and two hours, respectively. Postoperative intensive care treatment with assisted ventilation, sedation, and obtaining sufficient urine output prevented myoglobin-induced renal injury. In the case where ischemia time was shorter, there was only one delayed reconstruction of skin defects after fasciotomy, but in the case where ischemia lasted longer, the patient had two secondary look procedures with acceptable definitive results. Conclusion. Arm replantation is a safe procedure even in cases with longer ischemia time. Postoperative control of urine output, correction of acidosis, and preventing myoglobin-induced tubular injury are crucial for stable postoperative recovery and.
Optimized and Robust Design of Tires Based on Numerical Simulation
Authors: Kaliske Michael , Serafinska Aleksandra , Zopf Christoph
Published: November 2020

This publication presents a numerical approach for analyzing tires based on multiobjective optimization, with particular consideration of uncertainties. Within the optimization, which uses evolutionary algorithms, the evaluation of a three-dimensional, finite element tire model at steady-state rolling is performed. To obtain a reliable and high-quality design, data uncertainty caused, e.g., by variation in production conditions of the tire components, as well as incomplete information concerning loading, have to be considered. Among several design goals, this study looked at durability as an example. An improvement is achieved by the consideration of two objective functions: one focusing on reducing wear, and the other on providing resistance to fatigue. In addition, the proposed optimization measures robustness implicitly. A tire model is regarded as robust when large variations of the uncertain influencing factors mentioned, e.g., loading or material properties, lead to only minor variations in uncertain structural responses, e.g., strains, stresses, or contact pressures. To improve the numerical efficiency of the proposed design approach, a response-surface approximation, based on artificial neural networks, is applied.
ARTICLE-BY-ARTICLE COMMENTARY TO THE ARBITRATION PROCEDURE CODE OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION (CHAPTER 28.1)
Authors: RAZDYAKONOV E.S. , TARASOV I.N.
Published: November 2020

This article is the author’s text of the article-by-article commentary to the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, which has not been previously published in the legal literature. It takes into account the latest changes in procedural legislation, including on the delimitation of jurisdiction over corporate disputes between arbitration courts and courts of general jurisdiction, conciliation in corporate disputes and their arbitrability, notifying participants in a corporate dispute about litigation in such a dispute and determining the procedural status of participants in a corporate dispute. The authors from the standpoint of the modern doctrine of the civil law process interpret the articles of Chapter 28.1 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, which regulate the consideration of cases by arbitration courts on corporate disputes. The content of the commented norms is revealed in their relationship with other norms of the APC RF, provisions of other federal laws and current legal positions of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation. The allocation by the legislator of the procedure for considering corporate disputes in a separate chapter of the APC of the Russian Federation is due to the nature of the disputed material legal relations and the task of considering such cases using procedural features that make it possible to better ensure the observance and protection of the rights and legitimate interests of participants in a corporate dispute. These procedural features are established by the legislator in terms of determining the competence of arbitration courts to consider corporate disputes, requirements for a statement of claim (statement) in a corporate dispute, providing access to information about a corporate dispute, conciliation in a corporate dispute, application of interim measures, time limits for performing certain procedural actions, including time limits for appealing judicial acts, composition of court costs, grounds for imposition and amounts of court fines. These features are disclosed by the authors during commenting on the relevant provisions of the law.

Authors: MUSTAȚĂ Gabriel
Published: November 2020

Alvin Plantinga’s Reformed Epistemology. Alvin Plantinga is a well-known defender of Reformed epistemology. The main thesis of the Reformed epistemology argues that faith in God is rational and justified without the aid of arguments or evidence. In this paper, we intend to describe Alvin Plantinga’s perspective, more precisely, the A / C model (Aquinas / Calvin) proposed by him, in which faith in God is innate and does not need arguments or evidence, and then to analyze the objections on this model, in order to determine whether faith in God can be considered basic.
“THE JEWISH QUESTION” IN THE PAGES OF CONTIMPORANUL
Authors: FAUR Emilia
Published: November 2020

The Jewish Question in the Pages of Contimporanul. It is my interest to investigate how one of the Romanian leading interwar avant-garde magazines, Contimporanul (1922-1932), tackled the Jewish question. In this respect, I will consider the various standpoints the contributors took on the matter, presenting it in all its facets and complexity, as both a political and a cultural phenomenon. The analysis of the numerous articles covering the Jewish question, its causes and consequences, is meant to illustrate the sensibility Contimporanul demonstrates in regard to the Jewish question. Finally, I will conclude that, as in all matters covered, the magazines’ ideological position is democratic – For its contributors’ main claim is that the young Romanian state should prove itself to be united, modern, democratic based on the principles of integration and plurality, and not a nation-state based on ethnic and religious discrimination.

Regulation of the Activities of Pilots and Pilot Societies in Pre-revolutionary Russia
Authors: Koval V. N.
Published: November 2020

INTRODUCTION. The article analyzes the content of the main legislative acts regulating the activities of pilots and pilot societies in pre-revolutionary Russia. The relevance of the research is provided by the lack of knowledge in domestic science of the specifics of legal regulation of the pilot service in the Russian state in the pre-revolutionary  period.

MATERIALS AND METHODS. Th main sources of the research were normative documents, first of all, legislative acts of national significance, dedicated to commercial navigation and published in The Complete Collection of Laws of the Russian Empire and Code of Laws of the Russian Empire, which regulated the issues of financial security and social status of pilots in the Russian Empire, their responsibility. The methodology consists of the principles used in legal research, as well as general scientific and special methods of legal research (comparative legal, system, formal legal methods, historical and legal analysis).

RESEARCH RESULTS. The Russian experience of regulatory regulation of pilotage is studied: The Maritime Regulations of 1722, the Regulations on Sea Pilots of 1890, the Charter of the Society of Saint Petersburg Pilots of 1896 and other legal acts of this period are considered. The specifics of legal regulation of the pilot service in pre-revolutionary Russia are established.

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS. It is noted that the regulation of pilot companies as one of the trade unions was carried out under the control of the state. It is stated that the legislation of the Russian Empire, which determines the status of a pilot in the period of the XVIII–XIX century, was, in comparison with the legislation of European States, secondary and in many respects lagging behind the latter. The author focuses on how the structural organization of the pilot service and its legal status changed with the development of legislation.

O objetivo desta revisão integrativa é analisar a utilização do Maslach Burnout Inventory - Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS) em pesquisas brasileiras sobre a Síndrome de Burnout em profissionais de saúde. Foi realizada, em maio de 2019, busca sistemática nas bases de dados BVS Enfermagem, Index Psicologia, LILACS, MedLine e na SciELO com a combinação dos descritores “esgotamento profissional”, “pessoal de saúde” e “Síndrome de Burnout” no título, resumo e assunto dos artigos. Buscaram-se textos em inglês, português e espanhol, publicados entre 2013 e 2019 e com amostra de profissionais de saúde. De 1.614 artigos, 31 compuseram a amostra desta revisão. Verificou-se uma diversidade de denominações das dimensões da síndrome, nas escalas tipo Likert adotadas, nos métodos de classificação das pontuações das subescalas e de rastreamento da síndrome. Concluiu-se que o MBI-HSS tem sido empregado de distintas formas para analisar a síndrome de Burnout em profissionais de saúde, assim, essa falta de padronização pode gerar confusão entre os pesquisadores e dificultar a comparação entre os resultados das pesquisas.

Due to the shortage of organs for transplantation, different surgical alternatives have been developed, as split liver transplantation (SLT) and living-donor liver transplantation. In classical SLT, the liver of a cadaveric donor is divided and two allografts are obtained, one corresponding to segments 2-3 and the other to segments 1, 4–8. In order to produce two grafts from one liver for two adult recipients, splitting of the liver can create a right graft including segments 5–8 and a left graft with segments 1–4. Splitting of the liver can be performed during procurement (in situ) or on the bench (ex situ). The aim of our study is to describe the first case of in situ full-right full-left split liver transplantation, with focus on donor and recipient surgery.

Congenital biliary duct cysts are rare and are defined as cystic dilatations of the biliary tree in any of its portions. Cystic duct cysts are more uncommon. Their etiology remains uncertain and they should be resected due to the possible development of malignancy. We report the case of a female patient with a diagnosis of dilation of the cystic duct that was treated with laparoscopic surgery

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) effectively treats both obesity and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Unfortunately, some patients finally present for bariatric surgery have previously undergone Nissen fundoplication due to GERD. Conversion to EYGB after Nissen fundoplication is safe and effective, but is associated with greater morbidity and longer operative time and hospital stay. A 50-year-old female patient with a body mass index (BMI) of 40.4 kg/m2 was evaluated for bariatric surgery. She had a history laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication seven years before. We report a case of laparoscopic take-down of Nissen fundoplication and conversion to RYGB. A previous fundoplication is not a contraindication for laparoscopic RYGB. These procedures should be performed by well-trained surgeons and laparoscopic approach should be the method of choice.

Background: Gallbladder cancer is characterized by poor prognosis and late diagnosis. Objective: The aim of our study is to describe the epidemiological variables of gallbladder cancer at our centre and to compare them with data from the worldwide literature. Material and methods: Patients undergoing cholecystectomy between January 1, 2006, and December 31, 2015. The following variables were analyzed: sex, age, male to female ratio, reason for cholecystectomy, urgent or scheduled. In case of gallbladder cancer, sex, age, histopathology, cell differentiation, gallbladder layer invasion, lymphovascular, cystic lymph node, adjacent tissues and liver invasion; and cancer staging according to Nevin staging system and the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC). Results: Ninety-two gallbladder neoplasms were found, representing 1.26% of all cholecystectomies. Mean age of patients with gallbladder cancer was 57.9 years (range, 22-88 years) of whom 69.5% (n=64) were women, with the same female to men ratio of 2:1 described for cholecystectomy. The histopathology of the 92 gallbladder cancers corresponded to adenocarcinoma, 93.4% (n= 86); squamous cell carcinoma, 4.4% (n= 4); and undifferentiated malignancy with elements of epithelial and mesenchymal origin, 2.2% (n= 2). There were two cases of adenocarcinoma with squamous metaplasia, two mucinous carcinomas, one papillary adenocarcinoma and one case of antral-type and intestinal metaplasia. Sixty tumors (65.4%) were moderately differentiated; 12 (13%) well differentiated; 11 (11.9%) poorly differentiated; and 4 (4.3%) were undifferentiated. In 5 cases (5.4%) the type of differentiation was not described. Conclusion: In gallbladder cancer diagnosed after a cholecystectomy, it is more frequent in the female sex, with adenocarcinoma being the most common histological type. Interestingly, the number of young patients with gallbladder cancer is noteworthy.

Background: Soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare mesenchymal tumors with several histologic subtypes and different clinical patterns. Objective: The aim of this study was to describe the clinical and pathological characteristics and surgical outcomes of a series of patients with STS. Material and methods: The clinical records of 2403 undergoing surgery between October 2014 and April 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Twenty-two patients (0.91%) presented STS. Results: Mean age was 52 years (range: 19-92) and 13 (59%) were women. The tumors were located in the lower extremities in 12 cases, head and neck in five, trunk in three and upper extremities in two. Fourteen cases (63.6%) were high-grade tumors. Pleomorphic sarcoma was the most common histologic type (32%) followed by synovial sarcoma (18%), liposarcoma (14%), and other types (36%). All the tumors were completely resected and five patients (35.7%) required amputation, four in the lower extremity and on in the upper extremity. Different reconstructive procedures were performed accor- ding to tumor size and location, including three free flaps. Those patients with high-grade sarcomas or with positive margins received postoperative radiotherapy. After a mean follow-up of 16 months, six patients presented local recurrences and four patients had synchronous metastatic disease in the lungs; all these patients had high-grade tumors. Overall survival was 86.4%. Conclusion: STS are rare and invasive neoplasms, widely distributed, requiring aggressive and occa- sionally complex surgical procedures. It is necessary to consider adjuvant treatments in selected cases and to maintain regular follow-up due to the high rate of recurrences and distant metastases.

Published: November 2020

Amyand’s hernia is defined as an inguinal hernia containing the vermiform appendix1,2. This rare condition, with an incidence between 0.13% and 1.7%, is diagnosed during surgery, as the preoperative diagnosis is exceptional. Few cases of intraoperative diagnosis have been described in the literature. The diagnosis should be suspected in cases of incarcerated hernias so as to order the specific tests. The surgical management includes appendectomy or appendix reduction to the abdominal cavity associated to mesh repair or primary hernia repair without mesh.
