Background:

Few cases of pediatric traumatic intracranial aneurysms (pTICAs) in the posterior circulation involving the basilar artery (BA) following severe head trauma have been reported. Here, we describe a pediatric case of traumatic BA pseudoaneurysm accompanied by bilateral traumatic internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis following blunt head trauma.

Case Description:

A 16-year-old boy presented to our emergency department after being hit by a car. The patient was initially diagnosed with multiple skull base fractures underlying traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage and left acute epidural hematoma. Seven days following emergency craniectomy, magnetic resonance imaging revealed bilateral ICA stenosis, BA stenosis, and BA pseudoaneurysm. We decided to perform coil embolization, resulting in body filling and a volume embolization ratio of 15.7%. Twenty-eight days after coil embolization, digital subtraction angiography revealed aneurysmal rupture. We performed repeated coil embolization, resulting in body filling and a volume embolization ratio of 20.9%.

Conclusion:

We reported a pediatric case of traumatic BA pseudoaneurysm accompanied by bilateral traumatic ICA stenosis following a severe head injury treated with repeated coil embolization. Considering the risk of further brain injury due to high incidence of rupture, early vascular survey and appropriate treatment may be the most important prognostic factors in pTICAs.

Published: June 2023

Background:

The third ventricle colloid cyst (CC) is a benign growth usually located in the third ventricle and can cause various neurological symptoms, including sudden death. Modern surgical interventions may still result in a wide range of complications and cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is among them.

Case Description:

A 38-year-old female with an existing diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypothyroidism and a 6-month history of headaches, blurred vision, and vomiting presented to our clinic 3 days after the headaches became excessively severe. Neurological examination on admission revealed bilateral papilledema without any associated focal neurological deficits. Brain computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the presence of a third ventricle CC and associated non-communicating hydrocephalus involving the lateral ventricles. As a result, the patient underwent emergency bilateral external ventricular drainage (EVD) insertion followed by a third ventricular CC excision under neuronavigation through a right frontal craniotomy. Twelve days postoperatively, the patient developed further headaches followed by a generalized tonic-clonic seizure that led to no postictal neurological deficits. Nonetheless, computed tomography venography of the brain revealed extensive thrombosis of the superior sagittal sinus, inferior sagittal sinus, right sigmoid sinus, and right internal jugular vein. A newly diagnosed CVT was treated with intravenous heparin. The patient was discharged with warfarin, which was discontinued after 12 months. Ten years after her illness, she remained stable and free from any neurological deficits but still suffered from chronic mild headaches.

Conclusion:

A preoperative venous study should be performed in all cases to gain a better understanding of the venous anatomy. We advocate meticulous microsurgical techniques to protect the venous system surrounding the foramen of Monro and reduce the amount of retraction during surgery.
Intramedullary histoplasmosis of the thoracic cord as an isolated lesion: A rare case report and literature review
Authors: Piovesan Eduardo Cattapan , Silva Werner Petry , Mallmann Adroaldo Baseggio , Guiroy Alfredo José , Carazzo Charles André
Published: June 2023

Background:

Disseminated histoplasmosis involving the central nervous system occurs in 5–10% of cases. However, intramedullary spinal cord lesions are extremely rare. Here, 45-year-old female with a T8–9 intramedullary lesion did well following surgical extirpation.

Case Description:

For 2 weeks, a 45-year-old female experienced progressive lower back pain, paresthesias, and paraparesis. The magnetic resonance imaging showed an intramedullary expansive lesion at the T8–T9 level that markedly enhanced with contrast. Surgery, consisting of T8–T10 laminectomies performed using neuronavigation, an operating microscope, and intraoperative monitoring, revealed a well-demarcated lesion that proved to be a focus of histoplasmosis; it was readily completely excised.

Conclusion:

Surgery is the gold standard for treating spinal cord compression attributed to intramedullary histoplasmosis unresponsive to medical management.
Percutaneous high cervical spinal cord stimulation for refractory trigeminal neuralgia
Authors: Edelbach Brandon Michael , Lopez-Gonzalez Miguel Angel
Published: June 2023

Background:

Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a debilitating pain that affects the dermatomes associated with the trigeminal nerve (V1, V2, and V3). Unfortunately, many medical treatments and surgical procedures fail to sufficiently modulate the pain associated with this condition.

Case Description:

This study presents two extreme cases of refractory TN (RTN) that progressed to atypical facial pain and describes successful mitigation of the neuralgia of said cases by percutaneous implantation of upper cervical spinal cord stimulation (SCS). The SCS was designed to target the descending spinal trigeminal tract.

Conclusion:

Together, these cases collaborate with the limited literature and further delineate the use and potential advantages of SCS in the treatment of RTN.

Purpose. The aim of the work was to evaluate by fundus microperimetry the functional results of using the technology «temporal inverted VPM flap» in surgery of idiopathic macular ruptures. Material and methods. 95 patients 3 months after successful surgery of end-to-end idiopathic macular rupture (IMR) using the «temporal inverted VPM flap» technology, functional studies were performed on the MAIA microperimeter (Centervue) in the «Expert test» mode with the determination of the fixation point and its fixation stability, retina sensitivity by 3 standard radii (small, medium and large) and in the temporal and nasal areas of the macula. Results. The fixation point in 89 (93,7 %) eyes shifted to the center of the fovea and became stable in 84 (88.4 %) patients. For a small radius, the sensitivity of the retina increased from 17.9 ± 3.21 to 21.1 ± 2.81 (p < 0.05) dB, for an average radius from 20.1 ± 3.11 to 26.1 ± 2.66 (p < 0.05) dB, for a large radius from 20.2 ± 2.97 to 26.9 ± 2.47 (p < 0.05) dB. The sensitivity of the retina in the temporal half of the macula was lower than in the nasal (22.4 ± 2.41 and 25.9 ± 2.37 dB, respectively, p < 0.05). The corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) increased from 0.07 ± 0.04 to 0.34 ± 0.17 (p < 0.05). Conclusion. Fundus microperimetry is an objective method of functional effectiveness of IMR surgery. The surgical technology «temporal inverted ILM flap» provides more complete preservation of the retina in the projection of the papillomacular bundle, rapid and maximally complete restoration of the sensitivity of the macular area in the postoperative period.

Published: June 2023

Purpose. To study the results of phacoemulsification (PE) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) depending on the anterior-posterior axis (APA) and eye refraction. Material and methods. The study involved 57 patients (57 eyes) with insulin-dependent compensated or subcompensated DM (type II). All the patients underwent PE with IOL implantation. According to the nature of refraction, the patients were divided into 3 groups: group 1 — 16 patients (16 eyes) with moderate and high myopia, group 2 — 18 people (18 eyes) with hypermetropia, group 3 — 23 patients (23 eyes) with emmetropia. Distribution of the patients according to the length of the anterior-posterior axis (APA): with moderate myopia and APA from 25.01 to 26.5 mm (7), high myopia and APA above 26.51 mm (9), with emmetropia and APA from 22.2 to 23.8 mm (23) and APA less than 22.2 mm — hypermetropics (18). Results. VA in the early and late postoperative period in patients with DM and myopic refraction after PE was higher than in patients with hypermetropia and emmetropia. Visual acuity of 0.5 and higher was observed at discharge in 75.0 % of patients with myopia (and changes in the retina in the form of diabetic retinopathy were much less frequent) than in patients with hypermetropia (50.0 %) and emmetropia (52.2 %), and in long-term follow-up in 73.3 %, 37.5 % and 36.8 %, respectively. Destabilization of diabetic retinopathy with the transition to the next stage was observed twice less often in patients with myopia (13.3 %) than in patients with hypermetropia and emmetropia (25 % and 26.3 %, respectively). Conclusion. Visual outcomes after cataract surgery in diabetic patients are strongly affected by refraction and the axial length of the eyeball. At discharge visual acuity of 0.5 and higher was observed in 75.0 % of myopic patients, 50.0 % of hypermetropics and 52.2 % of emmetropic patients; and over 3 years of follow-up — in 73.3 %, 37.5 % and 36.8 % respectively. At hospital discharge diabetic retinopathy in myopic patients was observed 4.3 times less frequently than in patients with emmetropia and hypermetropia, and its destabilization with the transition to the next stage after 3 years of postoperative follow-up was twice less often: in 13.3 % vs. 25 % and 26.3 %, respectively.

Purpose. To analyze the prevalence of glaucoma in Bashkortostan depending on the stage of the disease, gender and settlement features of the respondents. Material and methods. 5899 individuals (including glaucoma by optic nerve head morphology changes — 5458) took part in this population-based analytical cross-sectional study; of them 3400 rural and 2499 urban people. The study procedure involved the evaluation of 683 criteria for each person, 293 of them related to the respondents’ questionnaire answers and general somatic examination, 355 referred to ophthalmic examination and 35 to laboratory tests. For glaucoma detection we applied the classification of Jonas J.B. et al. (1988), based on optic nerve head morphology changes. Eye exams included measuring BCVA and uncorrected visual acuity, autorefractometry, bimicroscopy, A-scans (axial length, depth of anterior chamber, lens thickness), non-contact tonometry tests, ophthalmoscopy, corneal kertotopography, fundus photography, static perimetry, OCT. Results. Glaucoma was detected in 561 out of 10 961 examined eyes (5458 people). Its prevalence in age groups was significantly different. The highest prevalence was noted in group of 85–89 years (24.2 %) and it significantly exceeded the rates in other age groups (1.4–12.7 %). Stage I glaucoma was detected in 58.1 %, Stage II in 20.1 %. Stage III in 11.4 %. Stage IV — 8.2 % and Stage V in 2.1 %. The prevalence of glaucoma in the Southern Urals among 40+ made up 5.2 % (open-angle glaucoma — 3.8 %, angle-closure glaucoma — 1.5 %), with a predominance among men and a significant (2.2-fold) prevalence among urban people. In total, the index of glaucoma prevalence was 1.5-fold higher than the average world index (3.5 %), there was a tendency to its increase with age. The highest correlation of glaucoma is associated with such factors as increased IOP, age, city residence and elongated axial length. Conclusion. The relatively high prevalence of glaucoma in the Ural region (5.3 %), which was revealed during the population-based study, may indicate not only the impact of hereditary or cultural factor on glaucoma development, but also some features and problems of ophthalmic care provision in this region. The question demands further investigation and taking certain measures. It is natural that the results obtained are of great importance for the development of glaucoma monitoring and the improvement of pathology prevention in the region. Keywords: glaucoma, epidemiological characteristcs

Interlayer separation by laser-induced functionalized graphene for photoluminescence enhancement of graphene/MoS2 heterostructures
Authors: Cao Qing , Hu Yalei , Hußmann Marleen , Eigler Siegfried
Published: June 2023

Tuning the optoelectronic properties of monolayer MoS2 (1L-MoS2) is highly desired for optoelectronic applications, such as molecular sensors. Stable structures that can be reproducibly fabricated are essential for this, and the mechanism leading to the optical properties can thus be well understood. Here, we demonstrate that the photoluminescence (PL) of 1L-MoS2 can be modulated by photochemically functionalized graphene (F-G), which is covalently modified by phenyl-groups. The materials and molecules, respectively, combined in a heterostructure are graphene, phenyl-groups, and 1L-MoS2. Here we show that the layer-sequence results in a significant difference in PL enhancement. MoS2 supported by F-G (F-G/MoS2) has a 5-fold PL enhancement. More importantly, MoS2 shows only a 1.8 times PL enhancement if stacked underneath F-G (MoS2/F-G). Accordingly, the results indicate that the Schottky barrier and van der Waals interaction between the graphene basal plane and MoS2 interface are dramatically weakened with the enlarged interlayer distance in F-G/MoS2. Consequently, the PL enhancement becomes reduced with the thermal de- functionalization of F-G. Due to the different PL properties induced by layer sequence, we conclude that the phenyl-groups must be considered as a separate molecular component. Thus, the F-G/MoS2 heterostructures bring us new ideas and have potential applications in optoelectronic devices.
Restore high-resolution NMR spectra from inhomogeneous magnetic fields using neural network
Authors: Xiao Xiongjie , Wang Qianqian , Zhang Xu , Jiang Bin , Liu Maili
Published: June 2023

High-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful analytical tool with wide application. However, the conventional shim technique may not guarantee the homogeneity of the magnetic field when the experimental conditions are unfavorable. In this study, we proposed a data post-processing method called Restore High-resolution Unet (RH-Unet), which uses a convolutional neural network to restore distorted NMR spectra that have been acquired in inhomogeneous magnetic fields. The method generates feature-label pairs from singlet peak regions and ideal Lorentzian line shape and trains a RH-Unet model to map low resolution spectra to high resolution spectra. The method was applied to different samples, and showed superior performance than the REFDCON method incorporated in Bruker Topspin software. The proposed method provides a simple and fast way to obtain high resolution NMR spectra in inhomogeneous fields, which can facilitate the application of NMR spectroscopy in various fields.

Published: June 2023

GCPII also known as Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA), is overexpressed in prostate cancer (PCa) cells and provide a biomarker for tumor targeting PSMA receptor. The development of lysine-urea-glutamate pharmacophore based inhibitors targeting PSMA for theranostics applications led to PSMA11 and PSMA617. In PSMA11, this pharmacophore is attached via aminohexanoic acid (Ahx) spacer to a chelator while in PSMA617 the pharmacophore is connecting with the linker 2-naphthyl-L-Ala, trans-4-(aminomethyl)cyclohexanecarboxylic acid and then to chelator. Here, we synthesized: (a) a squaramide analog of lysine-urea-glutamic acid; (b) two new building blocks for PSMA theranostics in which lysine-urea-glutamic acid was attached with two (i) phenyl alanine residues and (ii) amino hexanoic acid residues. Induced fit docking explored the binding profile of the new molecules. Biological experiments will provide data on the significance of the new molecules.
University cultural activity: evaluation necessity
Authors: Bakirov Vil
Published: June 2023

The article analyzes the problems of evaluation of cultural activity of modern classical universities. It is emphasized that in the postmodern world this activity requires a triune symbiosis of science, education and culture, which should mutually enrich each other, i.e. it is proved that a new paradigm of university life is needed. The example of the activity of V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University demonstrates how the desire of a modern university to be not only a center of knowledge and professional education, but also a center of active creative cultural practices is manifested. It is noted that such practices are very diverse, that they differ in their focus, objectives and forms of work. It turns out that due to such diversity there is a need to subordinate these practices to the main goal and determine an integrated assessment of their effectiveness, development and improvement. It is demonstrated that the latest model of evaluation as an interactive, communicative, self-corrected process of evaluating the classical university cultural activities is best suited for the development of the university as a cultural hub. This model is described as contributing to a deeper and more systematic understanding and development of such activities. In this sense, evaluation is seen not so much as a tool for evaluating activities, but as a tool for its development and improvement in changing conditions, i.e. in emergent social contexts. It is argued that in the evaluationary process, in addition to communication, research methods to study and analyze the opinions, positions, proposals, critiques of all actors and beneficiaries of the cultural project should be actively used. As such, sociological surveys, expert assessments, focused group interviews are provided, which provide valuable information about the real state of the project, its strengths and weaknesses, current issues. Conclusions about the status of evaluation in modern educational practices are formulated. Potential directions of further researches of evaluative practices in educational contexts are described.
Propaganda and Counter Propaganda in the Digital Society: Institutionalisation 2.0?
Authors: Rushchenko Ihor
Published: June 2023

The article highlights the trend of reinstitutionalisation of propaganda and counter propaganda after a brief historical era of international hiatus in the 1990s when the propaganda-related institutions were dismantled in many countries worldwide. The latter trend is exemplified by a number of processes, including the phenomenon of the Russian propaganda that has evolved after Putin took office, and the emergence of the strategic communications offices in Europe starting from 2015. The revival of propaganda 2.0 is a result of the hybrid wars that have engulfed leading countries worldwide. Propaganda is a systematic effort to manipulate other people’s beliefs and spread chaos. Although the current propaganda aims resemble the ones used during the Cold War, the new tech abilities have enhanced its tactics. While the Internet, digitalization and social media platforms offer new opportunities for secret services and relevant experts, the phenomenon of “open consсiousness” allows an average consumer to be unwillingly affected by the messages that contain propaganda. It is argued that counter-propaganda tools should factor in media literacy efforts and building resilience among the general population to withstand disinformation messages. A number of organizations focused at countering propaganda has been created as a means of an institutional solution. Following a watershed moment in Ukraine two relevant organizations were established in 2021: Centre for Countering Disinformation (as part of the National Security and Defense Council) and Centre of Strategic Communications and Information Security (as part of the Ministry of Culture and Information Politics). These organizations aim at carrying out relevant work in line with their EU counterparts.
Transformation of Sociology: Necessity and Perspectives
Authors: Bakirov Vil
Published: June 2023

The article analyzes the relevance, factors and prospects of the transformation of modern sociological science. It is noted that digital technologies significantly change the fundamental foundations of social interaction, most everyday social practices, structures and conflicts. This poses a number of serious challenges to sociology as a science. It is emphasized that it is time to think deeply not only about the problem of transformation of what sociology studies, but also about the transformation of sociology itself as a specific intellectual practice. Attention is focused on the need for sociological analysis and interpretation of large-scale and long-term social processes, changes in the traditional way of sociology's participation in the formation of state social policy and the implementation of social reforms. Endogenous factors hindering the leadership of sociological science in the modern public intellectual discourse are identified, namely: fragmentation of sociology, its division into a huge number of directions, particular, local thematizations; lack of research attention of sociologists to the fundamental problems of social life; modern sociology does not form an agenda for public intellectual discourse and scientific research, does not define the problematic field of research and interpretation both at the microsocial level and at the level of societal and global phenomena; it is not socially engaged, does not engage in dialogic interaction with various groups of the public, does not help them to realize their values, interests and problems, to fight for their solution; sociologists do not show activity in related research areas (for example, such as social communications, public relations, advertising, marketing, political consulting, conflict studies), do not use for this a rich arsenal of sociological theoretical concepts, quantitative and qualitative methods; despite the mediatization of social life, sociology is not sufficiently media-based, it is extremely weakly present in the media space. A conclusion is formulated about the need to transform sociological thinking and sociological imagination, the need for serious changes in the educational programs of professional training of students, in particular their practical component, the search for new formats of professional communication.
Volunteering Under Institutional and Structural Change: Genesis and Agent Influences
Authors: Bevzenko Lubov , Zlobina Olena
Published: June 2023

The genesis of volunteering as a source of social agency in conditions of social tension and crisis situations shifts research attention from considering volunteering as an activity that supports the work of official structures, to considering it as a self-sufficient activity in solving urgent problems facing society in situations of social instability and institutional instability. As a research perspective, the complexity paradigm is chosen, which offers a view of social processes through the prism of nonlinear system dynamics. The basis of the conceptual framework of the study - the allocation of the two mechanisms of social change – organizational and self-organizational. The processes of social self-organization reveal themselves in the crisis moments of the life of society through the activities of powerful volunteer communities, which become agents of change due to their emergence. The characteristics of such a volunteer community are their attractiveness, procedurality and specific hierarchy, which has a leadership basis. The genesis of the community of volunteers is viewed in the context of socio-structural changes. Using the example of the interaction of volunteers with the communities of internally displaced persons and combatants, it is shown that the communities of donors and recipients are interconnected in their own development. The features of the dynamics of volunteering agency in crisis conditions are determined, which depend on the ratio of self-organizing and organizational mechanisms at different stages of crisis situations. Since the beginning of the crisis, self-organizing structures have been active independent agents, however, as the institutional component strengthens, the initiative to restore public order is gradually shifting to organizational structures and the role of agency in self-organizing structures decreases. A decrease in the energy potential of a volunteering agency is associated with internal restructuring and adaptation of communities that arose at the time of the crisis and were the main recipients of assistance. However, this potential can recover quickly against the background of new challenges (eg pandemic) and unwillingness to respond to the situation by the organizational structures.
Influence of the Coronavirus Pandemic on the Development of Higher Education: Expert Opinion
Authors: Kyslova Olga , Aharkov Marko
Published: June 2023

The article examines the opinion of international experts on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the transformation of the higher education sector. Analyzed the data presented in publications that were posted on the international news resource University World News from 1st of March to 15th of October 2020 in the "coronavirus crises" section. It is noted that the most discussed topic is the strategy for the future development of higher education (26% of the analyzed texts were devoted to strategic issues). Attention is focused on the fact that the pandemic revealed that the concept of direct learning is not adapted to crisis situations like the COVID-19 pandemic (despite its undoubted advantages) when teachers and students do not have the opportunity to communicate directly in the classroom. It is emphasized that, despite the variability of experts' opinions on the future for the development of higher education in a global context there are significantly fewer negative assessments than could be expected: 33% of experts positively assess the changes in higher education initiated by the pandemic, suggest considering the pandemic crisis as a catalyst that accelerates solving existing problems, in particular the need to form a new vision of the strategic development of the education sector taking into account the future advantages of distance and online forms of education. The topic of financing turned out to be the most painful. Most experts negatively assess the prospects associated with a significant decrease in public funding without which it is difficult for universities to survive not only in the crisis conditions of the pandemic but also in the post-covid future. Insufficient funding has led to the reduction amount of teachers which will subsequently harm the entire system of higher education because it is the teachers who must fill the courses built in the format of augmented learning with content, develop an appropriate pedagogical design and accompany students in the educational process.
Post-military transit of the identity of ATO/OOS participants: factor conditioning
Authors: Romanenko Polina
Published: June 2023

n transit of the identity of Ukrainian participants in hostilities in the area of anti-terrorist operation/ united forces operation. Emphasis is placed on the peculiarities of transit and the factors influencing its karakter, given the analytical categories of phenomenological constructivism of P. Berger and T. Lukman, as well as the theory of A. Schutz. Particular attention is paid to the sociological conceptualization of the phenomenon of military identity of ATO / UFO participants. The content of the concepts “post-military identity transit” and “military identity” and the ratio of the respective phenomena are analyzed.
Based on the analysis and rethinking of the ideas of A. Schutz, P. Berger and T. Lukman, as well as the identification of key factors and actors influencing the post-military identity transit of ATO / OOS participants, the phenomena of military identity and military-to-civilian transit of identity are conceptualized.
It is emphasized that the military identity is constructed in the process of communication between the participants of the interaction. It is noted that specific practices acquired as a result of participation in hostilities appear in the life of the ATO / OOS participant as hidden knowledge that is reproduced outside the military environment and becomes an effective way of constructing reality.
Such groups of ATO / OOS participants as citizens who have chosen military service as a profession have been singled out; mobilized to the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) or the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) (6 waves of mobilization during 2014-2015); as well as volunteers who participated in battalions and other armed formations that are not part of the active army of Ukraine. The thesis is that military-to-civilian transit of the identity of the representatives of these groups will differ due to different experience of recruitment to the Armed Forces or other armed formations of Ukraine, differences in the conditions of stay in the combat area and so on.
The key factors influencing the post-military transit of the identity of combatants, constructing and reconstructing the military identity, namely: contrast of everyday life in the war zone and everyday life of peace, return to comfort, superior attitude of ATO / OOS participants to civilians, orientations, differences in perceptions of conflict, family and military fraternity. It is emphasized that the theoretical provisions, generalizations and conclusions presented in the paper, as well as the author’s hypotheses can be used in further scientific and practical studies of this and related topics, as well as for developing state programs of social integration of combatants into peaceful life
