Peak angular momentum of pirouettes by a university-level contemporary dance cohort
Authors: Talbot Jessica , Quin Edel , Hudson Penny
Published: July 2024

Turning movements are an important movement to master in many dance styles. For advanced or professional dancers, the pirouette (completing one or more turns with a specific stylistic form) is difficult to master and increasing the revolutions heightens difficulty further. The purpose of this study was to investigate peak angular momentum generation (PAM) of completing single- and attempting triple-revolution pirouettes for contemporary dance students. Adaptations made by dancers whilst rotating and imbalances within the centre of mass over the base of support were identified. Ethical approval was received. Seven female university-level contemporary dance students completed five successful single-revolution pirouettes en dehors (PeDh) and attempting to complete five successful triple-revolution PeDh whilst being recorded using a three-dimensional VICON motion capture system. PAM and torso lean (TL) and a two-dimensional foot vector (FV) were then calculated using a six degree of freedom model (Visual3D). A one-way ANOVA (P < 0.05) compared mean variance between single-, double-, and triple-revolution pirouettes. Significant effects were determined for all variables in each pirouette condition. A Tukey post-hoc test (P < 0.05) determined overall significant differences between PAM (F2, 37 = 15.8, ⍵² = 0.426), TL (F2, 37 = 3.4, ⍵² = 0.108), and FV (F2, 30 = 4.9, ⍵² = 0.192) for the midpoint turn of each pirouette condition. Independent samples T-Tests (𝛼 < 0.05) were conducted to compare PAM (t11 = 1.8, d = 1.026), TL (t11 = 0.1, d = 0.030), and FV (t6 = 0.6, d = 0.433) between successful and unsuccessful double pirouettes, with no differences reported. This test was repeated for successful and unsuccessful triple pirouettes. Again, no differences were observed for PAM (t15 = −2.2, d = −1.093), TL (t15 = −1.6, d = −0.802), and FV (t15 = −1.3, d = −0.648). This study concluded that PAM increased as the number of pirouette revolutions increased. Furthermore, a minimum threshold for PAM was calculated to produce successful double (0.597 kg·ms2⎺¹) and triple (0.637 kg·ms2⎺¹) pirouettes. Observations from the pirouette trials and FV data illustrated that dancers ‘hop’ when an imbalance is sensed, in an attempt to regain balance and continue pirouette revolutions. However, this method predominately produced unsuccessful pirouettes as the initial PAM was not achieved. This research can be applied to dance coaching as it provides an initial insight into mechanisms to support successful pirouette technique.

Teknik Kuleshov Effect dalam Editing Film Fiksi Pendek Wahyu (Revelation)
Authors: Ramadhani Adnan , Haryanto Dwi , Suharijadi Didik
Published: July 2024

The term "mairil" generally describes an act of affection between fellow students. However, sometimes it also refers to junior students who have white, attractive, adorable physical characteristics, a face that looks like a baby face. Senior students often choose them as mairil partners. Meanwhile, the term "nyempet" is used to describe the sexual act of intercourse between male students. Generally, this is done by senior students towards their maiden partners. Mairil and nchempet behavior in the Islamic boarding school environment is the basic issue that the author will describe in this audio visual work. This film is constructed as a film with a suspense drama genre
Wahyu's behavior is the basis for the creator to use the Kuleshov effect technique with the concept of visual storytelling. Another reason why this technique is applied is to present the point of view of the character Cholis who also plays an important role in the continuity of the story
The artistic work process in making the film Wahyu (Revelation) begins with observation, development or developing story ideas, pre-production stages, production stages and post-production stages.
The Kuleshov effect technique in image editing focuses on the audience's perception of a character's reaction to something they see, and this technique can be applied by juxtaposing a character's expression shot with a POV shot. The creator as editor was able to apply this technique in the film Wahyu (Revelation) in scene 5, and scene 15to build the audience's perception of a character's reaction to an event

The paper presents the results of geochemical studies of Lower Cretaceous deposits, including transitional layers from the Upper Jurassic, it is aimed at their evaluation as a possible source of petroleum hydrocarbons. The rocks of transitional layers between the Golchikha and Shuratov Formations have relatively high Сorg contents (1.3–3.7% per rock), type II and II/III kerogen prone to generation of liquid hydrocarbons, and catagenetic maturity corresponding to the beginning of the main zone of oil window (the beginning of the MK1 2 gradation). Biomarkers in aliphatic fractions of bitumoids indicate predominantly aquatic sources of matter – phytoplankton and bacterial communities, and suboxidizing conditions of accumulation and burial of initial organic matter of rocks. In the overlying mudstones of the Shuratov Formation the content of organic matter is below or at the level of bulk earth values (<0.9% per rock), kerogen corresponds to type III, formed mainly due to higher terrestrial vegetation and capable of generating gaseous hydrocarbons, catagenesis of organic matter corresponds to maturity stages from MK1 1 to MK1 2.

Published: July 2024

Baitul Mal wat Tamwil (BMT) plays an important role in collecting and managing funds, as well as channeling them to mikor business actors with the principles of justice that are free from usury. However, it was found that members' interest in investment products in cooperatives is still relatively low. This study aims to analyze the intention of BMT members to invest in mudharabah muqayyadah savings by using the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB). The sampling method uses cluster random sampling by distributing online questionnaires to all investors in muqayyadah mudharabah deposits whose BMTs are registered with Aksyindo. Data from 191 respondents were analyzed by using SmartPLS 3.2.9 Structural Equation Modeling. This research was found that all intention determinant variables in TPB namely attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control have positive and significant effects on the intention to invest in muqayyadah mudharabah savings, while other observed variables, namely knowledge, religious factors, risk and return, and sharia compliance have positive and significant effects on attitudes in investing in muqayyadah mudharabah savings. Based on the findings of this study, it is concluded that the BMT needs to improve the factors that influence the intention to invest in muqayyadah mudharabah savings in order to overcome the problem of low interest in investing in muqayyadah mudharabah savings. This study can be a consideration for regulators and practitioners to design effective strategies in developing the Islamic financial industry, especially BMTs that are developing in Indonesia.

Published: July 2024

The sudden shift to remote learning during the Covid-19 pandemic has brought much distress to teachers. Since the teachers are considered as the major force that facilitates the learning process, their well-being should be given importance. The study used a survey research design to determine the level of distress among private school teachers in San Pablo City, Philippines, using the Covid-19 Peritraumatic Distress Index (CPDI). It also analyzed the sources of distress and examined the different coping strategies the teachers are using to mitigate the distress related to remote learning. Results show that the majority of the respondents are experiencing distress, with most having mild-moderate distress, followed by severe distress. Preparation of learning materials, internet connectivity problems, limited teacher-student interaction, assessment of student's learning, tracking student's progress, inconducive working environment, and inadequate technical skills were identified as sources of distress. Most respondents prefer coping strategies that would promote their overall wellness and those activities that avoid the source of distress. These findings have implications for school owners and administrators, policymakers, and curriculum developers in addressing the needs of teachers by providing programs that would help them cope with the distress related to remote learning.

Feed is one of the important components of aquaculture. The higher the feed price, it is necessary to look for alternative materials for feed ingredients. One of the alternative feed ingredients that can be used is rice bran. In certain seasons, rice bran production decreases. One of the ingredients that can be used as a substitute for rice bran is nipa leaves. This study aims to determine the effect of using nipa leaves meal to replace rice bran in feed formulations and to examine the best percentage of nipa leaves meal on the growth and survival of striped catfish. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) which consisted of 5 treatments (P) with three replications, namely P0 (0% nipa leaves meal: 20% rice bran), P1 (5% nipa leaves meal: 15% rice bran), P2 (10% nipa leaves meal: 10% rice bran), P3 (15% nipa leaves meal: 5% rice bran), and P4 (20% nipa leaves meal: 0% rice bran). The size of fish used in this study was 4±0.5 cm with a sticking density of 1 fish/L. The rearing of the study was 42 days. Research results show that using nipa leaves meal as a substitute for rice bran with different significantly affects the growth of absolute weight, absolute length, feed efficiency, and protein efficiency ratio. Research results show that the P4 treatment with a percentage of 20% nipa leaves meal: 0% rice bran is the best result with absolute weight growth (2.70 g), absolute length growth (3.35 cm), feed efficiency (85.88%), the protein efficiency ratio (2.66%), and survival (100%). Water quality obtained during rearing is temperature 25.2–31.2oC, pH 6.9–8.7, and dissolved oxygen (DO) 5–6.1 mg/L.

Published: July 2024

The cultivation of vaname shrimp produces waste with a high nutrient content. This waste can be used as fertilizer in microalgae culture like Sprulina platensis. However, the N / P ratio in shrimp culture waste is low, namely 5.5: 1, while the need for growth of blue-green algae ranges from 10:1 - 16:1. Therefore, it is necessary to regulate the N: P ratio in shrimp culture waste to match the needs of S. platensis. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of different N / P ratios on shrimp culture waste fertilizer on the growth of S. plantesis. This study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) which was divided into 6 treatments with 3 replications, as P0: Walne fertilizer (N / P ratio 17: 1), P1: shrimp culture waste fertilizer enriched with urea (N / P ratio 5,5: 1), P2 with N/P ratio of 10.5: 1, P3 with N/P ratio of 15.5: 1, P4 with N/P ratio of 20.5: 1 and P5 with N/P ratio 25.5: 1. The parameters observed were density and growth rate of S. platensis and water quality namely: temperature, salinity, and pH. The data obtained were processed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and continued with Duncan's multiple range test. The results of this study indicate that the application of shrimp culture waste fertilizer with different N/P ratios affect the population and growth rate of S. platensis. Shrimp culture waste fertilizer with a N: P ratio of 15.5: 1 (P3) is the best treatment for the growth of S. platensis because it produces the highest population and growth rate compared to the other treatments.

Diabetes mellitus is a significant threat to society and even results in death. The content of soybeans that can lower blood glucose levels are protein, isoflavones, fiber, and a low glycemic index. Moringa leaves contain antioxidants such as flavonoids, vitamin A, E, C, and selenium, which help lower blood glucose levels. However, it is unknown whether combining soy milk with boiled moringa leaves is also beneficial in reducing blood sugar levels. This study aimed to determine how combining soy milk and boiled moringa leaves affects blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Posbindu Puskesmas Nusa Indah. Bengkulu city in 2023. The design used in this study is a pre-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test design. Fifteen pre-elderly samples aged 45 to 59 years with blood sugar levels of 140 to 199 mg/dL were randomly selected as intervention targets in this study. The treatment combined 200 ml of soy milk with 150 mL of Moringa leaf decoction, and then 350 mL of soymilk was produced. The intervention was given twice daily, as much as 175 mL for seven days. Data analysis using the Paired T-test showed that there was a significant relationship between intervention and the sugar level of type 2 diabetes mellitus (p < 0.001). There was a substantial decrease in blood glucose levels after administering the soymilk intervention with Moringa leaf decoction after seven days of intervention with p < 0.001. This combination product can be used as a functional food ingredient as an alternative for lowering blood glucose levels.

Osmanlı bürokrasisinde önemli görevler üstlenen devlet adamlarının bir kısmı, ilmî ve edebî yönleriyle temayüz etmişlerdir. Bunlardan biri de Osmanlı coğrafyasının birçok merkezinde mutasarrıflıklarda bulunmuş olan Beratlı Mahmud Mahir Bey’dir. Son devir Osmanlı bürokratlarından olan Mahmud Mahir Bey, Millî Mücadele Dönemi’nde Çanakkale, Sakarya, Afyon gibi jeopolitik merkezlerde mutasarrıflık yapmıştır. Anadolu’nun kurtuluş mücadelesinde padişaha bağlı kalmayı tercih eden Mahmud Mahir Bey, cumhuriyetin ilanından sonra Millî Mücadele aleyhtarı olması hasebiyle 150’likler listesine alınarak sürgün edilmiştir. On beş yıl sonra çıkarılan af yasasıyla itibarları iade edilen yüzelliliklerden bir kısmı yurda dönmüş ancak Mahmut Mahir Bey’in akıbeti meçhul kalmıştır. Beratlı Mahmud Mahir Bey’in edebiyat tarihlerinde ismi zikredilmeyen ve bu çalışmanın ana konusunu oluşturan Terennüm adlı küçük çaplı manzum bir eseri bulunmaktadır. Bu eserin dikkat çekici yönü hem şekil hem de muhteva olarak, Tanzimat sonrası yenileşme dönemiyle klasik dinî şiir geleneğimizin özelliklerini bir arada barındırmasıdır. Eserin ağırlık noktasını, batı kaynaklı fikir hareketleri neticesinde düşünce ve edebiyat dünyamızda görülmeye başlanan pozitivist zihniyete karşı, tabiata ve kâinata hayret penceresinden bakılarak Allah’ın varlığının ve yüceliğinin şiir diliyle delillendirilmesi oluşturmaktadır. Eser üzerinde yaptığımız bu çalışma dört bölümden oluşmaktadır. Giriş bölümünde Tanzimat şiirinde yaşanan zihnî dönüşümlere değinilecek, ilk bölümde yazarın biyografisi genel hatlarıyla ortaya konulacak, ikinci bölümde eserin şekil, muhteva, dil ve üslup özellikleri incelenerek güçlü ve zayıf yönleri tespit edilmeye çalışılacaktır. Son bölümde ise eserin metni çevriyazıyla sunulacaktır.

Authors: Kara Gormus Suna , Cardakoz Tulay , Toker Kamil
Published: July 2024

Objectives and Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of dexmedetomidine infusion dosage adjustment strategies guided by BIS and RSS on total consumption in patients undergoing infraumbilical surgeries under spinal anesthesia.Materials and Method: Eighty patients aged between 18-70 years, classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I and II, who underwent orthopaedic, urological, and plastic surgery under spinal anesthesia were included. Patients received spinal anesthesia in the lateral position through the L3-4 interval using a median approach. Following the observation of free flow of cerebrospinal fluid, spinal anesthesia was induced with 10 mg (2 ml of 5% hyperbaric bupivacaine) bupivacaine and 25 µg of intrathecal fentanyl. When the sensory block reached the T10 level, all patients were administered a dexmedetomidine loading dose of 1 µg/kg IV over 10 min for sedation, and the maintenance drug infusion dose was titrated to maintain BIS values between 60-80 in the first group and RSS at 3-4 in the second group. Throughout the surgery, hemodynamic variables (heart rate and blood pressure), respiratory parameters (respiratory rate), SpO2, sedation scores (BIS and RSS), and drug infusion doses and perioperative complications were recorded. Drug infusion was stopped 5 min before the end of surgery, and the duration of surgery, anesthesia, and total drug consumption were recorded. Statistical analyses were performed, and a p-value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: Desired sedation was achieved by dexmedetomidine administration. A decrease in BIS values and an increase in RSS were observed with the loading dose. In both groups, the heart rate and systolic and diastolic blood pressures were significantly lower at all measurement times than the control values. There was no significant difference in the mean blood pressure between groups B and R (p>0.05). The average blood pressure for B group was 92 ± 14.12 mmHg, while the average blood pressure for R group was 90 ± 12.73 mmHg. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of dexmedetomidine infusion doses required to achieve the desired sedation and total drug consumption 110 ± 20 (µg) in B group and 111 ± 22 µg in R group (p>0.05).Conclusions: Dexmedetomidine provides a targeted level of sedation in patients undergoing spinal anesthesia without causing significant respiratory depression. Monitoring sedation depth using the BIS did not change the total drug consumption.

Authors: Satıcı Muhammed Halit , Tutar Mahmut Sami
Published: July 2024

Aim: People can learn new skills, explore content related to their interests, and get to know different cultures through YouTube videos. It is important to be conscious when using platforms such as YouTube and to take care to obtain information from verified and reliable sources. Students especially watch medical videos on YouTube, which can improve their medical knowledge. Our aim in this study is to evaluate the educational content and quality of paravertebral block videos on YouTube.Materials and Method: Videos were recorded by typing the term 'paravertebral block ultrasound' into the YouTube search engine. In filtering, sorting was done according to the number of views. 100 videos on the first 5 pages were watched and evaluated. To evaluate the videos on YouTube, we used two different surveys, evaluating the educational content of the videos (Survey 1) and evaluating the quality of the videos (Survey 2).Results: Our study revealed that only a third of paravertebral block education videos met relevant criteria, with just (33) 18.2% demonstrating both good educational quality and preparation. There was a positive correlation between the video educational quality score and all parameters, with significant differences found for “video duration” and “video preparation quality score” (r=0.506, p=0.003, and r=0.84, p<0.001, respectively). Similarly, the video preparation quality score showed a positive correlation with all parameters, with significant differences found for “number of video likes” and “video duration” (r=0.373, p=0.033, and r=0.413, p=0.017, respectively).Conclusions: Paravertebral block videos on YouTube are inadequate in terms of educational and preparation quality. According to our analysis, we do not recommend using YouTube videos for educational purposes.
Anaphylaxis following unfractionated heparin administration: How safe is this drug in the treatment of thromboembolism?
Authors: Öncü Kıvanç , İlyas Yasir
Published: July 2024

Heparin, a naturally occurring polysaccharide belonging to the glycosaminoglycans (GAG) family, is ubiquitously found in mast cells. Unfractionated heparin is the least processed form of natural GAG, purified from animal tissue. In a 67-year-old female patient diagnosed with hypertension and asthma, who suffered a femoral fracture due to a fall, intravenous heparin sodium was administered for thromboembolic treatment in the postoperative period following closed reduction. Subsequently, respiratory distress, loss of consciousness, and cardiac arrest occured following profound hypotension. The patient, whose clinical findings were evaluated as anaphylaxis, was successfully resuscitated with prompt intervention. Despite immune-mediated reactions and Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia (HIT) being commonly encountered side effects in clinical practice, it is crucial for all healthcare professionals to recognize that widely used anticoagulant agents such as heparin sodium can lead to fatal complications.

The northern coast of Peru has a desert-like climate. Since precipitation is so scarce, convective rainfall events have a major impact. However, little is known about these events, and their prediction is complex. To date, anomalous convective activity has mainly been associated with warm sea surface temperature anomalies near the Peruvian coast. However, a more comprehensive analysis of atmospheric variables could shed light on how these precipitation events are triggered. To address this need, this study presents a new diagnostic index of precipitation using logistic regression. Satellite radar data are used as predictands, and ERA5 reanalysis parameters are used as predictors. The new index includes the mixing ratio and divergence at different levels (950, 700, and 250 hPa) and the Gálvez-Davison Index. This combination yields a logistic regression equation that ultimately takes the form of a new index, which we call RAMI (Rivas, Anderson-Frey, McMurdie Index). The RAMI is useful for diagnosing rainfall on the northern coast of Peru and could be useful for forecasting in this region, which is devoid of surface radars or other severe weather instruments.
An Examination of the Socio-Economic Representation of American Women in Ottoman Women's Periodicals
Authors: Keleş Yıldız Sema
Published: July 2024

Articles published in the Ottoman press about other countries are of great significance in describing the perspective of the Ottoman society towards the outside world. These articles, which may sometimes be only unbiased news articles or sometimes statements of positive or negative criticism, were employed as a model to shed light on numerous questions about women in the Ottoman Empire. Articles published in newspapers and journals for women shed light not only on the Ottoman Women's Movement but also on women's movements in other parts of the world and offer evaluations of these issues from an Ottoman perspective. In this context, these publications portray women's achievements and/or attempted achievements worldwide in social, cultural, economic, and political spheres, while comparatively discussing what the position of Ottoman women was or should have been from different perspectives of the period. In this study, through selected articles on the socio-economic status of American women in Hanımlara Mahsus Gazete, Kadınlar Dünyası, Siyanet, Bilgi Yurdu Işığı, Türk Kadını and Genç Kadın magazines published at different intervals between 1895 and 1921, it is examined how and for what purposes the American woman model for the Ottoman woman were handled in the context of Ottoman women's rights, with a special emphasis on working life. These articles were analyzed through document review and discourse analysis methods.

Authors: Abboud Joseph A. , Fares Mohamad Y. , Khan Adam Z. , Williams Gerald R.
Published: July 2024

Case:

A 71-year-old female patient presented with severe glenoid bone loss and deformity after 2 subsequent failed arthroplasty procedures because of baseplate failures. The patients then underwent a conversion from reverse shoulder arthroplasty to hemiarthroplasty, while using a distal radius allograft to augment the deformed glenoid. At the 2-year follow-up, the patient reported minimal pain and satisfactory outcomes.

Conclusion:

This case presents the distal radius as a potentially useful allograft option for augmenting severe glenoid bone loss in the setting of revision shoulder arthroplasty.
Al-Ittijāh al-Kalāmīy Inda Ḥasan Ḥanafi: Dirāsah Taḥlīliyyah Naqdiyyah fī Ḍaui al-‘Aqīdah al-Islāmiyyah

This study is inspired by the fact that Muslims have historically lived following the spirit and syari'ah of Islam. However, with the growth of human thinking patterns and frameworks, it is not surprising that there is still a negative influence through the war of intellectual invasion, whether from outside or from within Islam. Many societal problems, including those of politics and economics, as well as justice and freedom, do not have solutions according to Hassan Hanafi. He is a contemporary Egyptian figure who aims to revive new steps in modern Islamic culture. This research is included in the category of theological research, and it seeks to investigate Hassan Hanafi's main concepts and thoughts regarding his Kalam Science, as well as the patterns that influence it. In this study, the author uses three research methodologies: descriptive, analytical, and critical methods. Beginning with the author's exposition of Hassan Hanafi's beliefs in his writings, then observing Kalam's thoughts from his works, criticizing them in light of Mutakallim's and other Muslim philosophers' perspectives on ‘Aqīdah Islāmiyyah. According to this study, Hassan Hanafi has made changes ancient Islamic theology to support religious reforms and create people's rights. The Reformation's goal is to place humans at the centre of life, to shift from theocentric to anthropocentric, and from the hereafter to the world orientation, and to advocate for liberation theology that seeks to raise the rights of downtrodden people. Thus, it becomes very evident that Hassan Hanafi's approach to understanding ancient Islamic theology is extremely impacted by the legacy of Western thought and is therefore not in agreement with the ‘Aqīdah Islāmiyyah, which still upholds the naṣ of the Qur'an rather than prioritizing rationality.
Kolonialisme Vis a Vis Nasionalisme Perspektif Hadis
Authors: Majid M. Kharis , Noorhidayati Salamah
Published: July 2024

The words colonialism, imperialism and feudalism are conditioned by nature and attitude rather than tyranny. This is in stark contrast to Islam as a religion that strongly rejects actions that afflict others. This paper aims to find out, how the anticolonialism movement in Islam through nationalism is instilled with a ḥadīts perspective. In this article, the author uses an analytical descriptive method, namely by exposing ḥadīts related to colonialism and nationalism as a counterpoint, then explaining them by analyzing existing ḥadīts. So it can find nationalism in Islam as an anti-colonialism movement. The result of this paper is that in Islam there are two interesting concepts in the rejection of this movement, namely the concept of nationalism and the concept of jihad. Nationalism as a reinforcement of the nation's self-identity will give rise to a fanatical attitude towards the country which will certainly reject colonialism. Meanwhile, jihad in Islam is related to Muslim attitudes towards tyranny carried out by the colonials.

Published: July 2024

Background: Kara Tepe Registration and Identification Camp on Lesvos Island in Greece is a controlled access facility with people in various stages of the asylum procedure housed in tents, rub halls and containers in poor living conditions for prolonged periods of time. However, data are lacking on psychosocial vulnerabilities and experiences of these populations, particularly the growing number of single women residing in these settings.We aimed to explore psychosocial needs among this incamped population.
Methods: We did a retrospective cross-sectional chart review of socio-demographic and psychosocial vulnerabilities of all migrants (>18 years of age) who were detained in Kara Tepe between 1st February 2021 and 31st January 2023. Data were extracted from the Knack Online Database used by INTERSOS HELLAS.
Results: 701 individuals were referred to the clinic for psychosocial work, over a 2 year follow-up period, of which 165 subsequently received psychological support after initial health assessments. The majority (92.0%) of the cohort were women who were single, most from Afghanistan, Somalia, Congo, and Syria, with a range of medical and social vulnerabilities. 19.8% of the population had been subjected to gender-based violence including in their country of origin, during the migration route to Lesvos, or while on the island of Lesvos. The most common GBV incident reported was rape (48.9%) followed by physical assault (23.7%) and non-penetrative sexual assault (21.5%). 7% of the population presented with suicidal, or self-harming, behaviour, of which 26.2% had attempted suicide.
Conclusion: This study highlights for the first time the stark range of vulnerabilities experienced by predominantly single women in camp settings in Greece.

Introduction:
Most Rheumatic heart disease patients present with advanced disease and complications, pulmonary hypertension being one of the main complications. The presence of pulmonary hypertension is independently associated with increased pre-operative and perioperative morbidity and mortality in RHD patients. There are only few studies that showed the magnitude of pulmonary hypertension in RHD patients. This study was done to know the magnitude and predictors of PH in RHD patients so that early identification and intervention can be done for those at risk to develop PH.
Methods
An institution-based retrospective study was conducted by reviewing medical records of patients at adult echocardiographic unit from September, 2018 to September, 2023. Systolic PAP > 35mmHg using 2D echocardiography was used to diagnose pulmonary hypertension. Bi-variable logistic regression analysis followed by multivariable logistic regression analysis was done using SPSS statistics 25. P value < 0.05 and 95% CI was used to determine significant association.
Result
A total of 230 RHD patients were included during the study period between September 2018 and September 2023. Most patients were young below the age of 35 years (68.3%) with median age of 28 years and interquartile range of 21 to 38 years. Among the study participants 72.2% were females and 67% of them were rural residents. PH prevalence among RHD patients was found to be 77.4% (95% CI: 71.4%, 82.6%). Most patients (51.3%) had severe PH (≥ 60mmHg), whereas Mild PH (36–44mmHg) was 7.4% and moderate PH (45-59mmHg) was 18.7%. PH was found to have significant association with severe MS (AOR = 5.31, 95%CI: 1.87, 15.06), moderate to severe MR (AOR = 2.68, 95% CI: 1.05, 6.84), NYHA functional class III and IV (AOR = 2.60, 95% CI: 1.01, 6.68) and Diuretics use (AOR = 4.43, 95% CI: 1.33, 14.70).
Conclusion
The prevalence of PH among rheumatic heart disease patients in this study was high. Moderate to severe MR, severe MS, NYHA class III and IV, and diuretics use were significantly associated with PH. Expanding surgical intervention to address this patients is needed to decrease PH prevalence and morbidity and mortality associated with it.
When Clotting Falters: Vitamin K Deficiency in Short Gut Syndrome
Authors: Barber Richard Blake , Singh Nidhi V.
Published: July 2024

Background
The loss of a portion of the small intestine, whether from surgical resections and/or congenital anatomical abnormalities, can result in short gut syndrome. The syndrome can lead to malnutrition and deficiencies in vitamins and minerals, including a vitamin K deficiency caused by impaired fat absorption due to ileum resection. Vitamin K deficiency presenting as severe coagulopathy in a patient with short gut syndrome can lead to devastating consequences if not properly managed in the emergency department.
Case Presentation:
A 13-year-old male with a complex medical history, including short gut syndrome due to multiple intestinal resections, presented to the emergency department with altered mental status and a report of gastrointestinal bleeding. On arrival, the patient was tachycardic, tachypneic, with evidence of poor perfusion concerning for septic shock vs hemorrhagic shock. He was given many blood products for severe coagulopathy and required multiple fluid boluses and vasopressors for decompensated shock. He was then admitted to the intensive care unit for further management. After receiving octreotide and vitamin K, he was able to be weaned off vasopressor support and discharged on fat-soluble vitamin supplementation.
Conclusion
Vitamin K deficiency can cause significant coagulopathy in patients with short gut syndrome. Understanding this physiologic consequence of short gut syndrome can help facilitate early identification and management of a potentially life-threatening complication to improve patient outcomes.
