Na busca por caminhos para o seu desenvolvimento e sustentabilidade os seres humanos se organizaram em grupamentos de diversos níveis de complexidade, fazendo surgir comunidades (com estruturas mais simples e relacionadas à afetividade) e sociedades (pautadas por mecanismos legais estruturados como leis e contratos). Neste campo, considerando a tradição e a cultura dos povos, foram se esculpindo as comunidades tradicionais. A delimitação conceitual de povos e comunidades tradicionais e a convergência entre este tema com a promoção do desenvolvimento sustentável foi muito fortalecido no Brasil após a promulgação da Constituição Federal de 1988 e no seu desdobramento legislações que buscam regular as relações e os conflitos de interesse entre atores sociais diversos. Dentre os diversos temas e termos tratados nas últimas décadas, a aplicação do termo “território” na interlocução com comunidades tradicionais tem exigido bons debates teóricos e muitos estudos sobre a relação do homem com a natureza. Este artigo trata do diálogo teórico sobre este novo campo, com o intuito de ajudar na estruturação científica e prática da aplicação do termo “território”.

Published: November 2016

El proyecto de investigación GlobalCOM (CSO2013-46997-R) tiene como finalidad atender a la evolución del grado de transparencia en la comunicación pública digital local. Para ello, se evalúan 41 indicadores que atienden al grado de desarrollo del sistema de rendición de cuentas en los sitios web de ayuntamientos de toda España. La hipótesis de partida postula que las webs de los ayuntamientos españoles manifiestan importantes deficiencias a la hora de dar cuenta de la gestión que realizan sus gobiernos. Ello afecta al papel que estas entidades juegan como fuentes informativas para los medios de comunicación y la ciudadanía, dificultando el debate público y generando desconfianza.
Esta comunicación presenta los resultados de la primera oleada de datos, procedentes de 33 municipios de más de 10.000 habitantes en Castilla-La Mancha, durante el primer cuatrimestre del año 2015. Los resultados confirman la hipótesis para la muestra analizada.

was nebulized on Nebulizer OMRON NEU-17 and flows to the
burner tube with the different carrier gas flow rate. At the same time, LPG gas burners and
combustion air was passed through the inner and outer annular burner. The solid combustion
products was inhaled by exchauster and filtered by using a particle filter. The solid particles
obtained was analyzed by XRD, SEM, and BET. The results of XRD analysis showed that the
smaller the carrier gas flow rate the greater intensity of radiation so that it gained the better
crystallinity. The results of SEM and BET analysis showed that the mostly of the particles were
nano-sized. So the smaller the carrier gas flow rate, the smaller diameter is formed and the
larger the specific surface area.

Abstract: The use of corn cobs as the biomass feedstock offers promising possibilities for
renewable energy production. Corn cobs can be converted into oil by thermochemical
liquefaction in the supercritical ethanol. The aims of this research were to find the optimal
temperature which produce the maximum yield of oil and the contained substances in the oil. In
this research, 5 gram dry corn cob powder was put into 81 ml autoclave in addition of 0.25 gr
sodium carbonate and 75 ml ethanol as solvent. After nitrogen was blown into autoclave, it was
heated in the tube furnace until it reaches 75 minutes and maintained with the various
temperature.The liquid product was distilled to separate oil and volatile matter, meanwhile the
solid product was dried for 24 hours. The solid product was extracted with n-hexane to remove
glucose. The composititions of oil was analyzed by using GC-MS. The experimental result
showed that the maximum yield was 47.10 % when heating time 75 minute. The oil mostly
contained esters from C-20 to lower. The main compound was hexadecanoic acid ethyl ester by
37.10 % weight and other consist of alkyl esters, phenols, alkanes, etc.

Authors: Ashraf M. , Shahzad S. Muhammad , Akhtar N. , Imtiaz M. , Ali A.
Published: November 2016

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) plants were grown with saline–sodic water (SSW) by treating with potassium (K @ 100 and 200 mg K2O kg−1 soil) and farm yard manure (FYM @ 5 and 10% of soil, w/w). Irrigation with untreated SSW caused soil salinization/sodification, leading to an increase in electrical conductivity (EC) of 165% and sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) 100% with the subsequent increase of 736% in shoot Na+, a decrease of 52% in shoot K+ and 94% in shoot K+:Na+ratio compared to canal water. SSW also decreased physiological activities: 31% relative water content (RWC), 34% membrane stability index (MSI), 51% protein, 33% chlorophyll and 58% photosynthetic rate compared to canal water. Integrated application of K and FYM, at higher level, decreased soil EC by 54% and SAR 43%, and shoot Na+ 57% with a corresponding improvement in soil organic matter 166%, shoot K+ 360%, shoot K+:Na+ratio 987%, RWC 34%, MSI 37%, protein 60%, photosynthetic rate 102%, superoxide dismutase 92%, peroxidase 78% and catalase 52% compared to SSW without K and/or FYM. In conclusion, exogenous application of K and FYM could be a promising approach to use brackish water in agriculture on a sustainable basis.

Authors: Zahedi Mir Mahdi , Mohamad Ghasemi Somayeh
Published: November 2016

A facilitated bulk liquid membrane transport approach is studied for Mg(II) extraction from seawater and reversed osmosis brine simulated media using 18-Crown-6 and dibenzo (DB)-18-Crown-6. The work is based on investigating the experimental parameters affecting the transport efficiency, such as pH of feed and receiving phase, type of membrane solvent, temperature, type and concentration of the carrier, and stripping solution conditions. The transported amount of magnesium ions from feed phase (Mg(II) = 0.059 M, NaCl = 0.01 M, pH = 3.3) across a chloroform membrane (18C6 = 0.001 M) into the receiving phase (SCN− 0.1 M pH 3) was found to be %97 (±0.7) after 2.5 hr. The selectivity of the method was evaluated by performing competitive transport experiments on the mixtures containing Ca2+, Na+, K+, and Mg2+ ions.

Published: November 2016

Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TO) is a rare chronic disease of the airways characterized by the growth of cartilage and/or bone tissue in the submucosal layer of the trachea and large bronchi with varying degrees of their lumen narrowing. In a significant percentage of cases diagnosis is made only posthumously due to the late onset of clinical manifestations and the considerable complexity of life-time diagnostics.The objective of the research was to conduct the clinical observation of OT.Materials and methods. A patient Sh., 49 years of age, was admitted to the department of differential diagnostics of regional clinical pulmonology center to determine the cause of prolonged cough and bronchial obstruction syndrome. Only fiber-optic bronchoscopy (FBS) was the only informative method of examination. On the mucous membrane of the trachea and right main bronchus the dense white protuberance was found. The biopsy material was taken. Histological examination revealed areas of calcified cartilage located in subepithelial layer. Results. Taking into account the reasearch data, the TO was suspected. The disease has a benign course for many years and is asymptomatic at initial stages. However, deformation and narrowing of the lumen of the trachea and the large bronchi with epithelial atrophy causes a disturbance of phlegm discharge. This promotes the development of infectious and inflammatory processes in the lung tissue. Patients complain of cough, hemoptysis, shortness of breath, chest pain. X-ray examination of the lungs may detect the infiltrative changes. The indicators of lung function are normal or correspond to the type of obstructive disorders. CT radiograph and virtual bronchoscopy determine the deformation and narrowing of the trachea and the large bronchi due to the elements of cartilage and bone tissue. Definitive diagnosis is possible only according to the results of FBS and histological examination.Conclusions. Awareness on such rare pathology as TO is essential, especially in patients with chronic cough. In case of absence of specific clinical and radiographic changes, the computed tomography of the chest and FBS with for histological examination sampling should be performed to confirm the diagnosis.

Published: November 2016

The objective of the research was to study the ECG phenomena in patients with post-infarction left ventricular aneurysm (PLVA) depending on the treatment approach.Materials and methods. We analyzed results of 24-hour ECG monitoring of 238 patients with PLVA. The main group was divided into 3 subgroups depending on the treatment approach: patients who were treated with optimal background therapy (OBT), percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. All patients underwent 24-hours standard ECG monitoring.Results. Our research showed that 50.0% of patients of the first group had tachycardia. AV-junction conduction problems often were observed in those persons (PQ interval was 179.7±8.4 ms, which was significantly higher than in the control group, 149.3±5.4 ms, р<0.05). The longest QT interval was also stated for the first group, 532.4±27.3 ms, which was significantly longer than the average values of the control group (438.7±24.6 ms) and the second group (460.2±20.5 ms) respectively, р<0.05. Revascularization procedures (in the second and third groups) allowed achieving heart rate (HR) control in 66.1% and 62.5% of patients respectively. Complete right bundle branch block (CRBBB) was the most frequent phenomenon of patients of the third group (47.9%), which was significantly higher than in the patients of the first and control groups. We also detected a high frequency of supraventricular ectopic complexes in patients of the first and the third groups. A percentage of ventricular ectopic beats was the highest in the third group (17.7%).Conclusions. Patients with PLVA tended to have tachycardia, but the use of LV revascularization procedures allowed improvement of heart rate control. The patients were also characterized by a high percentage of impulse conduction in the atria, “AV-junction” and His bundle branches and the use of LV revascularization procedures did not improve the mentioned phenomena, and increased the risk of ectopic complexes in some cases (after CABG).Patients with PLVA had significantly prolonged “QT-interval” and therefore (along with the frequent disorders of repolarization) increased risk of sudden death. However, the use of LV revascularization (PCI) reduced it significantly.

MULTIPLE DAMAGE OF THE TIBIAL POLYETHYLENE INSERT IN KNEE JOINT PROSTHESIS (CAN EXCELLENT POSTOPERATIVE OUTCOME BE THE CAUSE OF FRACTURE OF THE TIBIAL INSERT?) CASE REPORT AND LITERATURE REVIEW
Authors: Song E. , Eshnazarov K. , Asilova S. , Seon J.
Published: November 2016

Despite improvements in prosthesis technology and use of high-quality materials in recent years, the number of revisions related to implant failures (4.7%) remains high. Several phenomena were reported in literature as reasons for dislocation and fracture of tibial insert in mobile bearing prosthesis: incorrect positioning of components, discrepancy of extension and flexion balancing or ligament weakness. However, in our cases neither of these causes were observed. The authors consider that bio-physiological and biomechanical aspects of total knee arthroplasty and knee joint prosthesis should be thoroughly studied and implemented into the clinical practice. In the described cases, multiple damage of the insert due to flexion instability and “twist-hyperflexion” in overweight patients is perceived as the reason for failures.
ARTHROSCOPIC METHOD OF THE RADIAL HEAD FRACTURE OSTEOSYNTHESIS (СASE REPORT)
Authors: Kuznetsov I. A. , Salikhov M. R. , Shulepov D. A.
Published: November 2016

Radial head fractures constitute about 3% of all fractures and 30% within the group of elbow joint injuries. Conventional open surgical treatment is accompanied by an extensive soft tissue incision and sometimes by capsule release for adequate visualization. Arthroscopic methods feature relatively insignificant soft tissue trauma, allow to reduce pain syndrome in postoperative period and to accelerate rehabilitation. Besides, arthroscopy improves surgical view in cases of intraarticular fractures and facilitates a better anatomical reduction of articular surface. The authors demonstrate a clinical case of a patient with closed fractures of radial head and ulna coronoid process with displacement of left elbow joint fragments where arthroscopic surgery provided for good anatomical and functional results.

Published: November 2016

We have analyzed the results of 32 TKA of 32 patients after fractures of the proximal tibia, which were operated in the period from 2011 to 2014. We have used intramedullary stems for tibial component in 28% of cases, CCK implants in 15.6% of cases, metal augments for bone defects in 25%, in 59.4% of cases autologous bone, cementation for minor defects was performed in 68.8% of patients. 12 of 32 (37.5%) operations were performed under the control of computer navigation (Orthopilot). Average KOOS score one year after the operation in subscales was as follows: "pain" - 86.1 (69,4-97,2), "daily physical activity" - 80,8 (57,4-92,6), "symptoms and stiffness "- 67,8 (57,1-85,7)," physical activity in sports"- 30,0 (5,0-70,0)," quality of life "- 50.0 (37,5- 81.3). The average ROM after the operation was as follows: flexion 100 degrees (90-120), extension 0 degrees (0-5), which corresponds to good and excellent results. There was only one case (3.1%) of septic instability, requiring a two-stage revisional surgery by articulating spacer. All the patients after surgery had a significant improvement of joint function and reduction of pain. However, these patients are at risk for postoperative complications and require a special approach when performing arthroplasty. Treatment outcomes are due to the restoration of axial and rotational alignment, normalization of the joint line by the use of augments, elimination of instability in the joint by application of CCK implants.

Purpose – to evaluate effect of protein extracted from lengthened skeletal muscles on callus formation in dogs after tibia lengthening using Ilizarov method.Materials and methods. The authors studied properties of distraction callus formation in three groups of dogs after tibia lengthening by Ilizarov method. In the first group (n = 10) distraction was achieved at a rate of 1 mm in four stages during 28 days. In the second (n = 4) and third (n = 4) groups distraction was done at a rate of 1.5 mm in 6 stages per day within 20 days. Mean lengthening value in all groups amounted to 14,64±0,67% of the overall segment length. At the 10th day of distraction the authors introduced to animals of the second group into anterior tibial and gastrocnemius muscles of the lengthened segment at callus level the extract of sarcoplasmic proteins in amount of 1.5ml based on 1 mg of lyophilizate per 1 kg of body weight (protein concentration in injectate amounted to 30±2 gr/l). Animals in the third group received natural saline solution in the same manner. Extract consisted of lyophilized sarcoplasmic proteins harvested from anterior tibial muscle of animal at 14th day of lengthening by Ilizarov method (rate of 1 mm per day in 4 stages). Extraction was performed according to patented method (Russian Federation patent for invention №2476234) by consecutive muscle proteins sedimentation in KCl solutions of varied ionic strength. The lyophilizate was sterilized after obtaining and dissolved in normal saline solution prior to introduction.Results. Radiographic signs of anatomically solid callus in the first group were observed in the average at 33±1 day of fixation; in the second group – at 24±2 day; in the third group – at 39±3. Difference in mean values of fixation in animals of second group as compared to first and third groups was significant (р = 0,04). After extract introduction the animals of the second group demonstrated a greater growth of γ-globulins and α2-globulins fraction volumes.Conclusion. Skeletal muscles of limb segment lengthened by Ilizarov method produce specific factors that impact the process of distraction osteogenesis.

This paper aims to analyze some linkages between revolution, public sphere, and transnational activism through social media in the Middle East. A revolution in Tunisia in 2011 became an international issue aft er the revolution spreaded to other states in the region. Aft er Tunisia, protest movements began to ignite in Egypt, Libya, Yemen,and Jordania. This wave of revolution comes into a public discourse: what causes this movement? How coulda revolution in one country inspire another revolution in another country? To answer these questions, weanalyze the role of social media as a “bridge” to connect activists in the Middle East to make a revolution. Weconclude that transnational activism was formed by routine and massive reports from media which explainedwhat hadhappened in the Middle East during the revolution. The reports were followed by a spread of the ideaof democracy and civil rights through social media. As a consequence, revolution took place in several othercountries whose socio-cultural tradition are similar to that of Tunisia.

therapy (with a complex of vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, and B12) on motor
nerve recovery after femoral nerve injury. Our study was conducted on an
experimental animal model of femoral nerve injury in rats. All animals used
in the experiment were subjected to the same set of analyses. A behavior test
was used for the assessment of motor function recovery. Body weight was
measured and electromyography was performed in order to assess recovery of
quadriceps muscle. Samples of muscles and nerves were used for counting
nuclei and determining nuclear density. The results of this study showed
enhanced functional recovery, including improved walking, a decreased level
of muscle atrophy and better electromyography recovery after administration
of vitamin B complex. Further, after 14 days of treatment with the vitamin B
complex nuclear nerve and muscle density was significantly lowered. In
conclusion, using a model of femoral nerve injury we demonstrated that the
application of vitamin B complex improved recovery of motor nerve in rats.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of thermal cycling on the flexural properties and simulated wear of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) resin composites.

Methods: The six CAD/CAM resin composites used in this study were 1) Lava Ultimate CAD/CAM Restorative (LU); 2) Paradigm MZ100 (PM); 3) CERASMART (CS); 4) Shofu Block HC (SB); 5) KATANA AVENCIA Block (KA); and 6) VITA ENAMIC (VE). Specimens were divided randomly into two groups, one of which was stored in distilled water for 24 hours, and the other of which was subjected to 10,000 thermal cycles. For each material, 15 specimens from each group were used to determine the flexural strength and modulus according to ISO 6872, and 20 specimens from each group were used to examine wear using a localized wear simulation model. The test materials were subjected to a wear challenge of 400,000 cycles in a Leinfelder-Suzuki device (Alabama machine). The materials were placed in custom-cylinder stainless steel fixtures, and simulated localized wear was generated using a stainless steel ball bearing (r=2.387 mm) antagonist in a water slurry of polymethyl methacrylate beads. Simulated wear was determined using a noncontact profilometer (Proscan 2100) with Proscan and AnSur 3D software.

Results: The two-way analysis of variance of flexural properties and simulated wear of CAD/CAM resin composites revealed that material type and thermal cycling had a significant influence (p<0.05), but there was no significant interaction (p>0.05) between the two factors. The flexural properties and maximum depth of wear facets of CAD/CAM resin composite were different (p<0.05) depending on the material, and their values were influenced (p>0.05) by thermal cycling, except in the case of VE. The volume losses in wear facets on LU, PM, and SB after 10,000 thermal cycles were significantly higher (p<0.05) than those after 24 hours of water storage, unlike CS, KA, and VE.

Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that the flexural properties and simulated wear of CAD/CAM resin composites are different depending on the material. In addition, the flexural properties and simulated wear of CAD/CAM resin composites are influenced by thermal cycling.
Quantifying Range-of-Motion Changes Across 4 Simulated Measurements of the Glenohumeral Joint Posterior Capsule: An Exploratory Cadaver Study
Authors: Dashottar Amitabh , Borstad John
Published: October 2016

Study Design

Repeated-measures controlled laboratory cadaveric study.

Background

There is a lack of information about the most sensitive measure of glenohumeral joint posterior capsule length. Although maximum strains on the glenohumeral joint posterior capsule are observed in measurements combining glenohumeral joint flexion and internal rotation (IR), the range-of-motion (ROM) change after experimental contracture has never been compared across commonly used posterior capsular measurements.

Objectives

To evaluate the IR ROM change across 4 glenohumeral joint posterior capsule measurements after experimental capsule shrinkage using radiofrequency thermal energy.

Methods

Repeated measures of ROM across 4 test positions were compared after progressive experimental contracture of the posterior capsule in 12 cadaver shoulders. The ROM data were collected with a 3-D motion-capture device and evaluated using repeated-measures analysis of variance.

Results

Overall, ROM decreased after experimental capsular contracture. There was a significant interaction effect between test and condition (F = 4.26, P = .01). Two of the 4 tests, those that combined humeral flexion and IR, detected significant reductions in the ROM following experimental capsular contracture.

Conclusion

Greater ROM change was observed in tests combining flexion and IR of the glenohumeral joint after experimental posterior capsular contracture. These tests appear more responsive to capsular-length change. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2016;46(12):1080–1085. Epub 29 Oct 2016. doi:10.2519/jospt.2016.6440
Patients With Insertional Achilles Tendinopathy Exhibit Differences in Ankle Biomechanics as Opposed to Strength and Range of Motion
Authors: Chimenti Ruth L. , Flemister A. Samuel , Tome Joshua , McMahon James M. , Houck Jeff R.
Published: October 2016

Study Design

Controlled laboratory study; cross-sectional.

Background

Little is known about ankle range of motion (ROM) and strength among patients with insertional Achilles tendinopathy (IAT) and whether limited ankle ROM and plantar flexor weakness impact IAT symptom severity.

Objectives

The purposes of the study were (1) to examine whether participants with IAT exhibit limited non–weight-bearing dorsiflexion ROM, reduced plantar flexor strength, and/or altered ankle biomechanics during stair ascent; and (2) to determine which impairments are associated with symptom severity.

Methods

Participants included 20 patients with unilateral IAT (mean ± SD age, 59 ± 8 years; 55% female) and 20 individuals without tendinopathy (age, 58.2 ± 8.5 years; 55% female). A dynamometer was used to measure non–weight-bearing ROM and isometric plantar flexor strength. Three-dimensional motion analysis was used to quantify ankle biomechanics during stair ascent. End-range dorsiflexion was quantified as the percentage of non–weight-bearing dorsiflexion used during stair ascent. Group differences were compared using 2-way and 1-way analyses of variance. Pearson correlations were used to test for associations among dependent variables and symptom severity.

Results

Groups differed in ankle biomechanics, but not non–weight-bearing ROM or strength. During stair ascent, the IAT group used greater end-range dorsiflexion (P = .03), less plantar flexion (P = .02), and lower peak ankle plantar flexor power (P = .01) than the control group. Higher end-range dorsiflexion and lower ankle power during stair ascent were associated with greater symptom severity (P<.05).

Conclusion

Patients with IAT do not experience restrictions in non–weight-bearing dorsiflexion ROM or isometric plantar flexor strength. However, altered ankle biomechanics during stair ascent were linked with greater symptom severity and likely contribute to decreased function. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2016;46(12):1051–1060.

Effects of Age on Strength and Morphology of Toe Flexor Muscles
Authors: Mickle Karen J. , Angin Salih , Crofts Gillian , Nester Christopher J.
Published: October 2016

Study Design

Descriptive, cross-sectional.

Background

Age-related muscle atrophy is common in lower-limb muscles. We therefore speculated that foot muscles may also diminish with age. However, there is a paucity of literature characterizing foot muscle strength and morphology, and any relationship between these 2, in older people.

Objective

To compare the strength and size of the toe flexor muscles of older adults relative to their younger counterparts.

Methods

Seventeen young adults with a normal foot type were matched by sex and body mass index to 17 older adults with a normal foot type, from an available sample of 41 younger (18 to 50 years of age) and 44 older (60 or more years of age) adults. Among the matched groups (n = 34), muscle thickness and cross-sectional area for 5 intrinsic and 2 extrinsic toe flexor muscles were obtained using ultrasound. Toe strength was assessed using a pressure platform. Differences in toe flexor strength and muscle size between the young and older matched groups were determined using analysis of covariance (controlling for height). Correlations between strength and size of the toe flexor muscles of the pooled group (n = 34) were also calculated.

Results

Toe strength and the thickness and cross-sectional area of most foot muscles were significantly reduced in the older adults (P<.05). Hallux and toe flexor strength values were strongly correlated with the size of the intrinsic toe flexor muscles.

Conclusion

The smaller foot muscles appear to be affected by sarcopenia in older adults. This could contribute to reduced toe flexion force production and may affect the ability of older people to walk safely. Interventions aimed at reversing foot muscle atrophy in older people require further investigation. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2016;46(12):1065–1070. Epub 29 Oct 2016. doi:10.2519/jospt.2016.6597
Chiari-related hydrocephalus: assessment of clinical risk factors in a cohort of 297 consecutive patients
Authors: Guan Jian , Riva-Cambrin Jay , Brockmeyer Douglas L.
Published: November 2016

OBJECTIVE

Patients treated for Chiari I malformation (CM-I) with posterior fossa decompression (PFD) may occasionally and unpredictably develop postoperative hydrocephalus. The clinical risk factors predictive of this type of Chiari-related hydrocephalus (CRH) are unknown. The authors' objective was to evaluate their experience to identify risk factors that may predict which of these patients undergoing PFD will develop CRH after surgery.

METHODS

The authors performed a retrospective clinical chart review of all patients who underwent PFD surgery and duraplasty for CM-I at the Primary Children's Hospital in Utah from June 1, 2005, through May 31, 2015. Patients were dichotomized based on the need for long-term CSF diversion after PFD. Analysis included both univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses.

RESULTS

The authors identified 297 decompressive surgeries over the period of the study, 22 of which required long-term postoperative CSF diversion. On multivariable analysis, age < 6 years old (OR 3.342, 95% CI 1.282–8.713), higher intraoperative blood loss (OR 1.003, 95% CI 1.001–1.006), and the presence of a fourth ventricular web (OR 3.752, 95% CI 1.306–10.783) were significantly associated with the need for long-term CSF diversion after decompressive surgery.

CONCLUSIONS

Younger patients, those with extensive intraoperative blood loss, and those found during surgery to have a fourth ventricular web were at higher risk for the development of CRH. Clinicians should be alert to evidence of CRH in this patient population after PFD surgery.
Anatomical configurations associated with posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus among premature infants with intraventricular hemorrhage
Authors: Tully Hannah M. , Wenger Tara L. , Kukull Walter A. , Doherty Dan , Dobyns William B.
Published: November 2016

OBJECTIVE

Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a complication of prematurity often associated with ventricular dilation, which may resolve over time or progress to posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH). This study investigated anatomical factors that could predispose infants with IVH to PHH.

METHODS

The authors analyzed a cohort of premature infants diagnosed with Grade III or IV IVH between 2004 and 2014. Using existing ultrasound and MR images, the CSF obstruction pattern, skull shape, and brain/skull ratios were determined, comparing children with PHH to those with resolved ventricular dilation (RVD), and comparing both groups to a set of healthy controls.

RESULTS

Among 110 premature infants with Grade III or IV IVH, 65 (59%) developed PHH. Infants with PHH had more severe ventricular dilation compared with those with RVD, although ranges overlapped. Intraventricular CSF obstruction was observed in 36 (86%) of 42 infants with PHH and 0 (0%) of 18 with RVD (p < 0.001). The distribution of skull shapes in infants with PHH was similar to those with RVD, although markedly different from controls. No significant differences in supratentorial brain/skull ratio were observed; however, the mean infratentorial brain/skull ratio of infants with PHH was 5% greater (more crowded) than controls (p = 0.006), whereas the mean infratentorial brain/skull ratio of infants with RVD was 8% smaller (less crowded) than controls (p = 0.004).

CONCLUSIONS

Among premature infants with IVH, intraventricular obstruction and infratentorial crowding are strongly associated with PHH, further underscoring the need for brain MRI in surgical planning. Prospective studies are required to determine which factors are cause and which are consequence, and which can be used to predict the need for surgical intervention.
