Bio Polymers to Save Human Health and Environment: Chitin and Lignin
Authors: Morganti PierFrancesco
Published: January 2023

The actual human ecosystems are producing a high quantity of plastic waste that represents a tough problem to be solved. Thus the need of operating and living by the circular green economy using food and agro-forestry by-products, such as nano-sized chitin and lignin, to make innovative biodegradable products and packagings at zero waste. These natural polymers may be used, for example, to make smart tissues which, copying the Extra Cellular Matrix (ECM)' structure, result effective and safe, for medical and cosmetic use, also because packaged into biodegradable containers. This new way to produce and consume will be useful to stop plastic waste and pollution invading land and oceans, safe guarding the natural raw materials and the Earth' biodiversity for the incoming generations.

Authors: Staykova Jeni , Dimitrova Juliya , Titopoulou Maria
Published: January 2023

The problems related to the environmental pollution caused by anthropogenic activity are particularly significant worldwide. The aim of the study is the quality of the atmospheric air in the region of Stara Zagora, Kazanluk Municipality and Galabovo Municipality and the morbidity of the population. The data are provided by RHI (Regional Health Inspectorate), RHIF (Regional Health Insurance Fund) and MI (Medical Institutions) Stara Zagora for a two-year period 2017-2018. Documentary, statistical and sociological methods are applied. For the period 2017-2018, in Stara Zagora, Ruzhena and Galabovo are reported excessive concentrations of PM10 (fine dust particles). There is an increase in the number of respiratory diseases with the highest relative share of acute bronchitis and pneumonia, especially in children. In order to reduce atmospheric air pollution and the health consequences for the population, it is necessary to carry out architectural and technological measures in the harmful productions of enterprises by installing modern purification facilities. Infrastructural measures such as improving the road surface and using ring roads are also needed.
Non-Ventilatory Co-Factors of Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury
Authors: Thornton DO Lauren , Marini MD John J
Published: January 2023

Numerous experimental studies demonstrate key aspects of mechanical ventilation which initiate or exacerbate acute lung injury, characterized by proteinaceous edema, inflammation, and hemorrhage. The great majority of these investigations into Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury (VILI) have focused on the characteristics of mechanical ventilation directly regulated by the clinician, including the individual tidal cycle-tidal volume, inspiratory flow rate, driving Pressure and End-Expiratory airway Pressure (PEEP).
Assessment of Factor V Gene G1691A Mutation (Factor V Leiden) among Chronic Hepatitis C Patients with Thrombocytopenia
Authors: Khedr Ahmed , Barakat Ahmed B , Salama Mohamed S
Published: January 2023

Background: Factor V plays a crucial role in the coagulation process. Factor V Leiden (FVL) is considered a mutant form of factor V, which may contribute to blood vessel thrombosis. Also, Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection may exert some coagulation changes leading to Portal Vein Thrombosis (PVT). Thrombocytopenia in patients with chronic HCV infection constitutes a major challenge. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the incidence of FVL (factor V gene G1691A mutation) and its influence on coagulation among HCV chronically infected patients suffering from thrombocytopenia. Besides, it was designed to demonstrate the association of chronic HCV infection with coagulation disturbances in such patients. Methods: This study was conducted on blood samples of a total of 54 subjects (33 HCV chronically infected patients and 21 healthy controls). HCV chronically infected patients with thrombocytopenia (Platelet Count [PLC] below 150 thousand/microliter) were selected. Prothrombin Time (PT) and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPPT) were previously determined as coagulation parameters. Protein C and protein S antigens were determined by ELISA as coagulation-regulating (anticoagulants) parameters. All samples were investigated for the presence of FVL by real-time PCR. Results: PLC, PT, and protein C antigen showed highly significant differences (p < 0.001) between controls (group 1) and HCV chronically infected patients (group 2). Likewise, a highly significant change (p = 0.006) was achieved for the protein S antigen. A non-significant change was detected for the incidence of FVL with a heterozygous pattern between controls (group 1) and HCV chronically infected patients (group 2). Additionally, non-significant changes were detected for all of the investigated coagulation and coagulation-regulating (anticoagulants) parameters between control subjects with negative FVL (subgroup 1) and others with positive FVL (subgroup 2). Similarly, non-significant changes for such parameters were recoded for HCV chronically infected patients with negative FVL (subgroup 3) and others with positive FVL (subgroup 4). Conclusion: Chronic HCV infection in the presence of thrombocytopenia is associated with coagulation disturbances. The incidence of FVL with its heterozygous pattern is unaffected by chronic HCV infection, and no association is shown with worsening of coagulation in chronic hepatitis C patients suffering from thrombocytopenia.

Drug addiction is a serious social, economic, and health issue that
persists worldwide. However, the efforts and certain measures
taken to curb this problem seem to be counterproductive. The high
addiction relapse rates and rising number of addiction cases show the
requirement for proper treatment. In general, a variety of evidencebased treatment interventions for drug addiction are available.
However, the gap between the availability of evidence-based therapies
and their limited implementation in practice has yet to be bridged. As
recommended by previous studies, psychotherapy (‘Talk therapy’),
pharmacotherapy (medication-assisted treatment), alone or in
combination, can be used to treat drug addiction, with the capability
of resolving the high relapse rate. This article provides an overview
of the evidence for, and clinical application of, psychotherapeutic
approaches used in the treatment of Substance Use Disorders (SUD).
Given the scope of the literature, this review will focus on the
psychotherapeutic approaches used in the treatment of illicit drug use
disorders, including addictive pharmaceutics, while excluding legal
drugs like alcohol and nicotine. Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy
(CBT), Contingency Management interventions (CM), Community
reinforcement approach, Motivational enhancement therapy, 12-step
facilitation therapy, family therapy, and Multisystem Therapy (MST)
are some of the most prevalent evidence-based psychotherapeutic
approaches currently in practice. Evidence suggests that the
combination of different psychotherapies with other treatment
interventions is expected to improve treatment outcomes.

Antecedentes En Panamá, durante los primeros cinco meses de pandemia, se reportaron 65,256 casos y 1,421 fallecimientos por COVID-19. Los tratamientos utilizados en pacientes hospitalizados durante este periodo fueron variando en la medida que surgía evidencia científica. Metodología Presentamos un estudio multicéntrico observacional, descriptivo, de corte transversal y retrospectivo de la terapéutica administrada en pacientes hospitalizados con COVID-19 en siete centros estatales de la República de Panamá, entre el 1 de marzo al 31 de julio de 2020. Se analizó el resultado de recuperado o fallecido en relación al uso de hidroxicloroquina, heparinas y esteroides. Resultados Se revisaron 837 expedientes. 60.7% pacientes eran hombres y la mediana de edad fue 53.6 años. Los tratamientos más utilizados fueron heparinas 84.7%, esteroides sistémicos 76.5%, azitromicina 65.5% e hidroxicloroquina en 41.1%. La frecuencia de uso de oxigenoterapia fue de cánula nasal 73,2%, máscara facial con reservorio 39%, cánula de alto flujo 8.9%, ventilación mecánica no invasiva 11.1% y ventilación invasiva en el 15.3%. Los esteroides mostraron mayor tasa de recuperación (OR 1.72 [1.16-2.54).
Conclusiones El reto de abordar una nueva enfermedad, sin tratamiento conocido, con evolución y desenlace variable, llevó a la comunidad médica a utilizar medicamentos empíricos con potencial terapéutico incierto. Destacamos que desde muy temprano se administró esteroides sistémicos, heparinas y tocilizumab; actualmente con beneficios para pacientes con requerimientos de hospitalización. Además, se empleó técnicas de oxigenación, como la cánula de alto flujo y ventilación mecánica no invasiva, con dudosa efectividad; pero que hoy ya tienen un rol estudiado en la falla respiratoria por COVID-19.

La cirugía laparoscópica por puerto único es un concepto que refleja la expansión que están sufriendo las técnicas mínimamente invasivas en los últimos años. Pese a ser un estímulo para todo laparoscopista, su implantación es hoy por hoy una asignatura pendiente en la mayoría de los hospitales. Nuestro objetivo es reflexionar sobre la laparoscopia a través de incisión única a la luz de nuestra casuística.
Hemos realizado un estudio descriptivo observacional retrospectivo de pacientes intervenidos en nuestro centro mediante laparoscopia a través de incisión única
Desde 2012, se han realizado en nuestro hospital, 215 laparoscopias por puerto único de las cuales 175 son apendicectomías, 37 hemicolectomías derechas, 2 colecistectomías y 1 eventroplastia con buenos resultados clínicos y estéticos.
La laparoscopia por incisión única supone un paso más en el perfeccionamiento de la cirugía mínimamente invasiva y debe suponer un reto y un empeño para el cirujano su expansión e implantación.
Untreated Atypical Left Femoral Shaft Fracture: A Case Report of Its Complication
Authors: Aouad Dany , Azar Nagham , Daher Mohammad , Dib Nabil , El Rassi Georges
Published: January 2023

Background: Bisphosphonate therapy is used to manage osteoporosis and decrease the risk of vertebral and hip fractures. These drugs act by suppressing osteoclast activity by inducing the inhibition of bone resorption and increasing bone mineral density. It has been shown that long-term use of bisphosphonate is correlated to a higher incidence of atypical femoral fractures.
Case report: This is a case report of an 81-year-old female, on bisphosphonate therapy for 12 years and with chronic left thigh pain for two and a half years who developed an incomplete atypical left femur fracture. What’s special about this case is that the fracture was ignored and then progressed after three months into a complete displaced spiral fracture that required surgical fixation.
Conclusion: The benefits of bisphosphonate treatment in preventing osteoporotic fractures outweigh the risk of the occurrence of these atypical fractures. Orthopedic surgeons as well as primary care physicians must keep atypical fractures in their differential diagnosis in patients presenting with prodromal symptoms and who are on long-term bisphosphonate therapy

BACKGROUND: Leprosy or Hansen’s disease is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae (M. leprae) bacilli which results in chronic infections in humans that affect the peripheral nerves, skin, and other organs such as the eyes, mucous membranes, bones, and testicles. Leprosy has a variety of clinical presentations, depending on the cell-mediated immunity of the host. Leprosy is classified by the World Health Organization (WHO) as paucibacillary type (PB) and multibacillary type (MB) depending on the number of lesions. This multicenter study aims to provide representation of leprosy types and its epidemiology in Indonesia.
AIM: The purpose of this study is to find out the epidemiology according to the leprosy type in 13 teaching hospitals in Indonesia between 2018 and 2020.
METHODS: This is a descriptive study with cross-sectional design. All patients with the diagnosis of PB or MB type of leprosy who underwent Multidrug Therapy (MDT) treatment between 2018 and 2020 were included in this study. Data collection was carried out by tracing medical records data in 13 teaching hospitals in Indonesia.
RESULTS: A total of 2129 leprosy patients were included in this study. There were 232 cases (10.8%) of PB leprosy and 1897 cases (89.1%) of MB leprosy. The average age of the patients is 38.7 years (SD ± 16.2 years). Males are more affected by leprosy (n = 1,441; 67.7%) compared to female (n = 688; 32.3%).
CONCLUSION: Leprosy remains as a national health problem. The increasing cases of MB leprosy in Indonesia are caused by several factors including the lack of knowledge about leprosy, the delay in diagnosis of leprosy, and the stigma of leprosy within the community; therefore, it becomes a challenge to eliminate leprosy in Indonesia.
EntailClass: A Classification Approach to EntailSum and End-to-End Document Extraction, Identification, and Evaluation
Authors: Balaji Purvaja , Merker Helena , Gupta Amar
Published: January 2023

The novelty of zero-shot text classification can address the fundamental challenge of the lack of labeled training data. With the current plethora of multidisciplinary, unstandardized text data, scalable classification models favor unsupervised methods over their supervised counterparts. Overall, the aim is to automate the labelling of each sentence in an input document consisting of section titles and section text. We propose an end-to-end pipeline that includes a document parser, a text classification model called EntailClass, and finally an evaluator to determine balanced accuracy. The suggested pipeline employs a zero-shot approach to classify text within any desired set of aspects. Moreover, text sentences are paired with their section titles and chronological order is maintained within sentences of the same aspect. The proposed automated, three-step pipeline represents a step towards solving the challenge of text classification without the need for an individual dataset for each aspect. It also offers the potential for seamless integration into existing workflows. This zero-shot, generalizable pipeline has achieved 87.2% accuracy and outperformed other state-of-the-art models when applied to supervisory documents.
Behavioral and Psychophysiological Measures of Engagement During Dynamic Diﬃculty Adjustment in Immersive Virtual Reality
Authors: Caldas Oscar I , Mauledoux Mauricio , Aviles Oscar F , Rodriguez Guerrero Carlos
Published: January 2023

Dynamically Diﬃculty Adjustment (DDA) has been widely used to preserve engagement in serious and entertaining games, reach better learning, and enhance user performance. A variety of studies suggests that in DDA, task performance (score) rises until hitting a plateau associated with the skill level. However, the sense of engagement is individual and context-dependent, and the eﬀect of DDA on other engagement indicators for immersive virtual environments is still unclear. This study measured objective indicators of engagement while study subjects played an immersive virtual game with DDA to ﬁnd evidence of dynamic response, similar to game performance. Participants were demanded to perform repetitive upper-limb motions while recording the following indicators: Response Latency as perceptive engagement (elapsed time after sensory stimulus), Exercise Intensity as motion engagement (hand velocity), and psychophysiological responses as emotional engagement (Heart Rate, Skin Conductance, and Respiratory Rate). In addition, 30 features were extracted from the signals to evaluate their variations between time windows. Results indicate that response latency, vertical hand velocity, and heart rate showed signiﬁcant changes over time during DDA and grew until hitting a plateau, i.e., at the subject's maximum performance. Moreover, some of the features extracted from the signals showed signiﬁcant diﬀerences between time windows, and having strong correlation with the mean of score: max Latency, min velocity on the Y-axis, and mean heart rate, which suggest a promising application for evaluating changes in engagement between diﬀerent experimental conditions in VR.

À partir d’une enquête de terrain au long cours, cet article reconstitue les conditions globales, nationales et micro-sociales de formation du mouvement LGBT tunisien. Il montre que les militant.es sont fortement consommateurs et consommatrices de biens culturels mondialisés et sont inséré.es dans des réseaux transnationaux, mais que les produits de la globalisation sont filtrés et interprétés par leur passé incorporé. Par ailleurs contribution à une sociologie de la révolution, l’article met en évidence les manières dont celle-ci a formé et transformé différemment les individus selon leur place dans les rapports de sexe et de génération. En réinterrogeant les travaux sur les sexualités, l’article renouvelle enfin le regard habituellement porté sur les instances de socialisation familiale, qui, loin d’inculquer uniformément la conformation aux normes de genre et de sexualité, ont pu fournir aux futur.es militant.es des modèles de résistance à ces normes.
Enjeu(x) du droit. Réflexion, à partir du cas du Maroc, sur la place du droit dans la société et dans les sciences sociales
Authors: Mouaqit Mohammed
Published: January 2023

La place du droit dans les sciences sociales est minimisée. Appartenant au domaine du formel et du formalisme, il ne constitue pas une entrée pour l’intelligence du social ou une instance de détermination de la réalité. Dimension constitutive de la réalité sociale et politique, il n’est pas considéré, en tant que cadre de normativité, comme contribuant par ses propres enjeux au façonnement de la réalité sociale. La réflexion au cœur de cette contribution a pour objectif de reconnaître au droit et à la normativité leur part dans la fabrique de la réalité. L’enjeu du droit s’évalue à sa part dans la (re)configuration du système sociopolitique, dans sa fonction d’instance de reconnaissance sociale, et dans sa fonction d’instance de production de sens. La réflexion est menée à partir du cas du droit au Maroc.
Contester les finances publiques en justice, mais de quel droit ? Une comparaison de mobilisations citoyennes en France et Espagne
Authors: Bailly Jessy
Published: January 2023

À partir d’une comparaison des actions en justice de collectifs d’audit citoyen de la dette en France et en Espagne, cet article propose de réfléchir aux agencements que des citoyens sont susceptibles d’opérer entre finances publiques et droit. Plus particulièrement, il s’agit de voir comment de tels collectifs ont été amenés à contester certaines décisions liées aux finances publiques en justice, en l’absence, vis-à-vis de certains décideurs, d’interactions susceptibles de faire émerger une véritable délibération sur les modalités de financement des politiques publiques. En revenant de manière comparative sur les parcours judiciaires et les rapports au droit des auditeurs-citoyens, il s’agit de mettre en valeur les difficultés à consacrer une critique des usages des finances publiques par le medium des arènes judiciaires.
La désignation des hauts magistrats entre indépendance et politisation : la Cour suprême de justice équatorienne (1979-2017)
Authors: Herrera Miguel
Published: January 2023

Centrés autour de la question de l’« indépendance », des travaux en science politique sur la justice en Amérique latine ont affiché une préoccupation récurrente pour identifier les conditions institutionnelles qui la sous-tendent. Or, au-delà de ses conceptualisations théoriques, l’indépendance est aussi une catégorie indigène, ou encore un construit qui participe à la légitimation des modes d’organisation et de fonctionnement de la justice et de son rapport au politique. À partir du cas de l’Équateur et des désignations des hauts magistrats, cet article explore comment différentes configurations institutionnelles s’appuient sur des représentations propres de l’indépendance judiciaire. Sa définition est donc mouvante et dépend de la solidité des accords politiques qui sous-tendent ces configurations.
Qu’est-ce qu’un budget sincère ? Les lois de finances entre juridicisation et politisation
Authors: Lépinay Thomas
Published: January 2023

Au prisme de la sociologie du droit et à travers une approche processuelle, cet article interroge le principe constitutionnel de « sincérité budgétaire », ordinairement présenté par la doctrine comme incertain et ineffectif. Il analyse les mobilisations en faveur de ce principe depuis les années 1990 et les luttes pour sa définition, entre simple respect du droit à l’information du Parlement et instrument plus formalisé de discipline budgétaire. Il examine les divers effets produits par l’existence de cette ressource mobilisable qu’est la règle de droit, en soulignant les retraductions politiques et médiatiques dont il fait l’objet. Ce faisant, il donne à voir l’évolution des rapports de force à l’œuvre dans l’élaboration des lois de finances et met au jour une tension entre juridicisation et politisation des textes financiers.
L’écriture des plans locaux d’urbanisme par les urbanistes et les avocats : nouvelle expression de l’externalisation en matière juridique
Authors: Sulpice Oriane
Published: January 2023

Cet article met en lumière l’externalisation, par les communes supports de station de ski, de la rédaction de leurs plans locaux d’urbanisme à des cabinets d’urbanisme et d’avocats. En effet, dans le cadre de la judiciarisation de ces documents, la conduite des politiques d’urbanisme demande aux collectivités une maîtrise juridique chevronnée. Ainsi, le risque contentieux crée un marché de l’insécurité juridique, où les urbanistes et les avocats font valoir leur expertise juridique. Ils bénéficient d’un « capital contentieux » qui leur permet de maîtriser le risque judiciaire en fournissant un service à forte intensité de connaissances, renforcé par leur vision globale des enjeux de l’urbanisme. Ils jouent alors plusieurs rôles auprès des communes entre accompagnement, contrôle et diffusion de pratiques légales et illégales.

Interactions interculturelles, épanouissement psychologique au travail et comportements de citoyenneté organisationnelle interpersonnelle : rôle médiateur de l’intelligence culturelle
Authors: Mokounkolo René , Ceschiutti Alexandrine , Coillot Hélène , Fouquereau Evelyne , Gillet Nicolas , Chevalier Séverine
Published: January 2023

Considérant les enjeux de la mondialisation de l’économie, cette étude analyse le rôle de l’intelligence culturelle dans la relation entre, d’une part les interactions interculturelles et, d’autre part, l’épanouissement psychologique au travail et les comportements de citoyenneté organisationnelle interpersonnelle. Trois cent trente-cinq salariés tout venant ont rempli un questionnaire auto-administré. Les résultats issus des analyses par équations structurelles confirment que l’intelligence culturelle médiatise totalement les effets des interactions interculturelles sur l’épanouissement psychologique au travail et les comportements de citoyenneté organisationnelle interpersonnelle. Ils suggèrent que les interactions interculturelles favorisent le développement de l’intelligence culturelle qui, à son tour, contribue positivement à l’épanouissement psychologique au travail et aux comportements de citoyenneté organisationnelle interpersonnelle. L’intelligence culturelle peut ainsi être considérée comme une contributrice centrale pour favoriser la santé psychologique au travail en contexte multiculturel. Les contributions de l’étude à la recherche et la promotion de la santé psychologique en contexte de travail multiculturel, ainsi que ses limites et ses perspectives sont discutées.
Discrimination liée à l’âge et burnout : des effets différenciés selon l’âge à travers la perspective temporelle future professionnelle
Authors: Desmette Donatienne , Villotti Patrizia
Published: January 2023

La discrimination liée à l’âge est un facteur de risque susceptible de conduire au burnout, en particulier chez les travailleurs âgés (Volpone & Avery, 2013). Cependant, peu d’études se sont attachées à examiner les processus explicatifs des effets de la discrimination liée à l’âge sur le burnout. Cette recherche analyse les effets de la discrimination liée à l’âge sur le burnout à travers la perspective temporelle future au travail (Zacher & Frese, 2009), selon l’âge des travailleurs. Une étude cross-sectionnelle par questionnaire en ligne a été menée auprès de 231 travailleurs tout venants. Les résultats mettent en évidence que la discrimination liée à l’âge est positivement associée au burnout chez les travailleurs âgés mais pas chez les travailleurs jeunes, à travers la réduction de leur perspective temporelle future professionnelle. Il apparaît en outre que les travailleurs d’âge médian sont également affectés par la discrimination liée à l’âge via la réduction de leur perspective temporelle future, posant la question des effets de la menace identitaire liée à l’appartenance future stigmatisée. Enfin, les résultats contribuent aux études récentes utilisant le Burnout Assement Tool (BAT, Schaufeli et al., 2020) comme outil de mesure du burnout. Des pistes de recommandation sont proposées pour lutter contre la discrimination liée à l’âge et prévenir le burnout.
Relationship between CTLA4, TNF-α and PTPN22 gene polymorphism and the serum levels of antithyroglobulin and antiperoxidase antibodies in autoimmune thyroiditis
Authors: Rahimova Rena

Autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) is a chronic inflammatory that involves hyperactivation of the immune system against the thyroid gland, recognizing it as "nonself”. The aim of this research was to identify the relationships between genetic polymorphism in CTLA4, TNF-α and PTPN22 genes and the manifestation of AIT and levels of antithyroglobulin antibody (anti-TG Ab) and thyroid peroxidase antibody (anti-TPO Ab). The study was conducted during 2014–2020 and included 64 men and 106 women aged between 18 and 64 years with AIT. The control group consisted of 65 people (26 men, 39 women, aged between 20 and 65 years) without any thyroid pathologies or other autoimmune diseases. For molecular genetic analysis, real-time quantitative RT-PCR was used with fluorescently labeled FAM probes on a detection system CFX96 (BioRad). The results demonstrated that patients with the GG genotype and the G allele of the +49A/G polymorphism in the CTLA4 gene have significantly higher titers of anti-TG Ab. High titers of anti-TG Ab were detected in 22.4% of patients with the GG genotype (p = 0.005, χ2 = 7.86, OR = 0.237, 95% CI = 0.088–0.635), and in 55.6% of patients with the G allele (p = 0.0012, χ2 = 10.43, OR = 0.360, 95%, СI = 0.192–0.674). At the same time, the A allele of the +49A/G polymorphism is significantly more common in patients with normal anti-TG Ab values—in 68.1% of individuals (p = 0.0012, χ2 = 10.43, OR= 2.78, 95%, CI = 1.484–5.207). The results of the study indicate the prognostic significance of the G allele and the GG genotype of the +49A/G polymorphism of the CTLA4 gene predicting the probability of occurrence of anti-TG and anti-TPO antibodies.

The text emphasizes the need to study the historical Roman constitution, as an integral part of the comprehensive analysis of the sources of the ideological apparatus of the contemporary constitutional democratic state. The authors remind us of the methodological instruction from T. Mommsen’s Staatsrecht that the said studies are not only a unique direction towards understanding SPQR constitutionalism and its legate, but also constitute an approach that enables conclusions regarding results that are not temporally and substantively limited, nor are they – “so much as narrowly legalistic as it is often thought”. Thanks to the choice of an open and broad approach of modern constitutional legal analysis, which is guided by the thought: the constitution is culture (P. Haberle), the continuity and vitality of new knowledge about the old topics of government and freedom, property and owner, wealth and poverty, class and classless society is strengthened as unchanging constants of the constitutional system of the contemporary state and society.

The paper discusses the explicitly stated understanding of legal science as it appears in compulsory course textbooks on positive law subjects at the Faculty of Law, University of Zagreb. The first part of the paper describes the research problem and posits the corresponding hypotheses, states the research aims, describes the method of qualitative content analysis, and elaborates on the content units used (themes, categories and subcategories). The second part establishes the textbooks which contain an explicit determination of a branch of legal science that they belong to, or legal science in general, and the extent to which they contain it. Furthermore, it establishes how the subject matter, objectives and methods of legal science are defined in the textbooks and whether the textbooks include interdisciplinarity as a part of legal research. The third part determines the predominant understanding of the subject matter, objectives and methods of legal science and the predominant understanding of interdisciplinarity of legal research in the analyzed course textbooks. The conclusion contains a discussion of research results, determines the extent to which the hypotheses are confirmed and highlights the possible avenues of further empirical and theoretical research on (Croatian) legal science. The research results demonstrate that the analyzed textbooks mostly contain at least an elementary determination of legal science, but differ greatly with respect to the placement, extent, and way of its elaboration. Furthermore, according to the predominant understanding, the subject matter of legal science are general legal norms. Its objectives are to describe the law, systematize it and to recommend more appropriate legislative solutions and ways of interpreting and applying it, while its methods are the dogmatic method, the comparative method, and the sociological method. Objectives and methods are mostly just mentioned, without being described and explained. Finally, less than a half of the textbooks mention that legal research includes some level of interdisciplinarity, while the predominant understanding is that interdisciplinarity consists primarily in using insights from other scientific disciplines.

In this paper, the author analyses the question of the application of the curule aediles rules on immovables, in line with the Ulpian’s quote of Labeo from D. 21,1,1pr. The first part of the paper contains an analysis of Labeo’s claim quoted by Ulpian, followed by a scrutiny of its importance in the incorporation of aediles’ actions into the actio empti, and a study of the sources that bring into relation aediles and the sale of immovable. The next part consists of a discussion on the immovables described as pestilens (pestilential, infected, unhealthy) and of an analysis of the sources that indicate the application of the actio redhibitoria on such sale. In the conclusion, the author presents arguments in support of the interpretation that the debate on the application of the rules of the edicts of the curule aediles to the sale of immovables existed in classical law and thus the mixing of actio redhibitoria and actio empti had occurred as early as during the time of Diocletian.

U 2020. godini obilježili smo petnaestu godišnjicu od donošenja Zakona o obveznim odnosima (ZOO) – stožernog propisa hrvatskog privatnog prava u čijem su nastanku značajnu ulogu imali prijašnje jugoslavensko obvezno pravo, međunarodni instrumenti, poredbeno-pravni utjecaji iz romansko-germanskog pravnog kruga i pravna stečevina Europske unije (EU). Ova važna obljetnica u hrvatskoj pravničkoj zajednici najavljena je međunarodnom znanstvenom konferencijom Zagreb International Conference on the Law of Obligations u prosincu 2019. g. , a jedan od njezinih vrijednih doprinosa poredbenopravnom izučavanju hrvatskog obveznog prava je nedavno objavljena monografija Hrvatsko obvezno pravo u poredbenopravnom kontekstu: Petnaest godina Zakona o obveznim odnosima. Knjiga je objavljena u listopadu 2022. u izdanju Ekonomskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu, a uredili su je doc. dr. sc. Ivan Tot i prof. dr. sc. Zvonimir Slakoper s Katedre za pravo Ekonomskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Riječ je o prvoj u nizu knjiga iz nakladničkog niza “Hrvatsko obvezno pravo u poredbenopravnom kontekstu“ koji je pokrenut s ciljem sustavne i kontinuirane obradbe tema iz hrvatskog i poredbenog obveznog prava. Na gotovo 800 stranica teksta podijeljenog u pet dijelova i 18 poglavlja – popraćenog predgovorom, detaljnim sadržajem, tablicama kratica, pokrata, skraćenica citirane literature te kazalima odredaba ZOO-a, ostalih izvora i pojmova – autori su obradili niz obveznopravnih tema.

Mađarska izdavačka kuća Central European Academic Publishing iz Miskolca objavila je 2022. godine monografiju pod nazivom "Lectures on East Central European Legal History". Urednik monografije je Pál Sáry, predstojnik Katedre za rimsko pravo te ravnatelj Instituta za pravnu povijest i pravnu teoriju Pravnog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Miškolcu u Mađarskoj. Monografija je namijenjena ponajprije doktorandima pravnih studija koji bi uz pomoć predmetnog djela, u vidu udžbenika, stvorili širu perspektivu i bolje razumijevanje pravnog sustava. Također, monografija može poslužiti i studentima dodiplomskog studija kao i široj pravničkoj profesiji jer je poznavanje povijesnog razvoja pojedinih pravnih sustava i instituta vjerodostojan temelj njihova razumijevanja u suvremenosti.

BACKGROUND:

The aim of this study was to perform a bibliometric analysis to assess the number of articles published by Iranian researchers in the field of hand and microsurgery over the last four decades.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

An online search was conducted using 685 keywords in the abstract/title sections of articles, including carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist fractures, nerve injury and repair, skin flap and graft in the hand, congenital disorders in the hand and forearm, tumor in the hand and wrist, and infection in the hand and wrist. From February 1976 to May 2021, EndNote software version 8.1 was used to search articles in PubMed and Scopus databases. Articles in which at least one of the authors was affiliated with Iran were chosen. The name of the original institution, field of study, total number of publications, type of study, collaboration rate of Iranian hand surgeons for each year, and annual sharing of Iranian articles in journals with the highest cite scores in the field of hand and microsurgery were all examined in the present study.

RESULTS:

The total number of publications in the field of hand and microsurgery was 632 (an average of 11 papers per year). Most of the Iranian hand and microsurgery papers were from the capital city, Tehran (38.09%). There was an increasing trend in the number of publications over the years, most which were about carpal tunnel syndrome (21.5%), tendon (9.8%), and nerve (9.6%). In total, 59.6% were descriptive articles, whereas the proportion of clinical trials was relatively small (22.3%).

CONCLUSIONS:

Iranian hand microsurgeons have continued to increase their scientific output in hand microsurgery and related fields over the last 40 years. The quality of Iranian hand microsurgeons’ scientific output, both within and outside their discipline, has greatly improved; however, they still have a long way to go before becoming a hub of science.

LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:

IV, retrospective study without control group.
Agreement for diagnosis of depression and anxiety between self-assessment with e-questionnaire and psychiatric telephone interview among post-COVID-19 patients
Authors: Mazhari Shahrzad , Sabahi Abdolreza , Gilanipour Hoda , Keshvardoost Sareh
Published: January 2023

BACKGROUND:

Psychological disorders, such as depression and anxiety, are common among individuals who have experienced coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19); however, diagnosis may be challenging and subjected to invalidity. This study aimed to examine agreement between online self-assessment and psychiatric telephone interview among COVID-19 survivors.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

This cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out from March to June 2021 in Afzalipour Hospital, Kerman, Iran. The inpatients confirmed with COVID-19 were contacted within the first week after discharge and were asked to fill the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HADS) and socio-demography questionnaire. They were later interviewed using Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A). Agreement between the data extracted from self-report and telephone interview was analyzed using Cohen's kappa coefficient, sensitivity, and specificity.

RESULTS:

Out of 200 post-COVID patients, 60 participants completed all assessments. Prevalence of depression was observed to be 88% via telephone interview and 45% via self-assessment. Moreover, 83% of the participants were diagnosed with anxiety according to the telephone interview, in comparison to 31% diagnosed with anxiety using self-report questionnaire. The agreement between online self-assessment and telephone interview for depression and anxiety was not significant (κ = 0.08 and κ = 0.1, respectively).

CONCLUSION:

The discordance between online self-report and clinician's assessment via phone contact interview indicates that using self-report evaluations is not sufficient as the single assessment tool for mental health monitoring and reflects the need to employ multiple assessments for diagnosis of psychiatric problems in pandemics.
