Re-education as Ethnocide. Beyond the Nazi Concept of “Umvolkung”
Authors:   Masaryk University, Faculty of Arts, Institut of History, Brno, Czech Republic, Němec Jiří
Published: November 2021

The paper deals with re-education as one of the hidden symbols of modernity using the example of National Socialist nationality politics. It analyses a theoretical concept behind the National Socialist ethnic and racial policy in East Central Europe, especially in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. It presents the concept of Umvolkung as a theoretical basis on which it was possible to think of a significant part of the Czech population that met the racist criteria of the National Socialists, that it was originally the German population who lost its national identity during the centuries. The concept should also help to develop a strategy to re-educate the people of the Protectorate, and in the long run it should eventually lead to ethnocide, i. e. to disintegrate or directly destroy the Czech collective national identity. One of the key figures in shaping the concept was the young Nazi scholar Hans Joachim Beyer (1908–1971), who came to the Protectorate on the advice of the Deputy Reich Protector Reinhard Heydrich and headed the most politically influenced Science Foundation in Czech Lands (Reinhard Heydrich Foundation for Scientific Research in Prague). In order to justify the future National Socialist Germanization policy, Beyer developed a new theory of the origins of the Czech people in collaboration with the anthropologist K. V. Müller.

Personal and Social Trust in Contemporary Poland in the Light of Empirical Research
Authors: Stala Józef
Published: November 2021

The importance of trust for the development of an individual, social relations and for the development of societies has been emphasised by social, psychological and educational theorists. Personal and social trust towards people is to a great extent bound with emotional involvement. People who are close to one another, especially relatives or friends assume that they act on similar principles. Such assumptions about personal relations make people more open, generous and optimistic. Social trust is gained in the course of various daily, professional and social experiences. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to demonstrates personal and social trust on the basis of the results of the surveys conducted by CBOS (Public Opinion Research Centre in Poland).
Psychology of the complainants
Authors: Tománek Pavol , Knošková Eliška , Drgová Jaroslava , Knošková Monika
Published: November 2021

The article deals with the personal handling of complaints by participants in court proceedings (in rare cases it also includes those citizens who do not have such legal status as the public). The aim is to define, analyze and describe the personal characteristics of the complainants, to specify what inspires, motivates and leads them to communicate the complaint in person, directly in interaction with the court manager, and court staff by this atypical procedure before, during and after court proceedings, in addition to a written complaint. The management of complaints and the case law of complaints are based in particular on the provisions of § 62 et seq. Act no. 757/2004 Coll. on courts as amended (exceptionally also from Act No. 9/2010 Coll. on complaints as amended). On the one hand, it is a description of the basic characteristics of the applicants’ mental state, communication, behavior and conduct, and on the other hand, it is also a ­description/study of the managerial activity of the court employees. The article clarifies the peculiarity of the above-mentioned method used to settle the parties in dispute before the courts, but outside the court proceedings one finds that the complainants are absent from the social, health and legal counseling service provided by state or private sectors before the sitting. These areas are to some extent, eventually more or less covered by courts of the Slovak Republic by personally accepting and addressing the complainants. The public is generally unaware of this, but the professionals consider/understand this activity as a protopype (basis) of family court formation or a return to classical counseling from the beginning of the 21st century.

Ius patronatus as viewed by Edward Rittner
Authors: Kantor Robert
Published: November 2021

Patronage can be defined as a group of privileges and duties granted by ecclesiastical authorities to the faithful who founded a church, chapel or benefice and to those who acquired this right from them. This is how Prof. Edward Rittner, the Rector of the University of Lviv, understood this concept. This article, entitled “Ius patronatus as viewed by Edward Rittner”, presents the notion of patronage itself, as well as related issues, such as: the ways of patronage acquisition, the possibilities of patronage transfer, the content of ius patroantus and finally the ways of patronage expiration. This article is based on Prof. Rittner’s lecture contained in his textbook “Prawo kościelne katolickie” (in English: Catholic Ecclesiastical Law), volume I, fourth edition from Lviv dated 1912.
Impact of urban water bodies on the structure of open public spaces
Authors: Kurochkina Valentina , Khlebnikov Sergey , Melnikova Margarita , Smetanin Ivan
Published: November 2021

Currently, most cities situated next to rivers are facing the problem of near-water depressive spaces formation. Most frequently, coastal territories that were previously used for agricultural and industrial needs become depressive spaces. After the loss of their purpose, these facilities cease to be operated, which leads to a negative environmental impact on the environment and to its gradual degradation.
The article contains the results of the study of depressive territory of the Chermyanka river section (Moscow city), in which the authors took part. The section of the river is located in the North-Eastern Administrative District of Moscow in the municipal districts of Bibirevo and Otradnoye.
Based on the results of the reconnaissance survey and sociological research, the main problems of the studied depressive territory were identified. Based on the analysis of successful domestic and foreign projects on the revitalization of depressive near-water spaces, the ways of solving these problems and the development of the degraded territory are proposed. The article describes in detail the option of reorganization of the considered depressive territory, developed by the authors. The option of zoning of the river territory into green and open public spaces is justified, including an assessment of the morphometric indicators of the river, biological, sociological and landscape characteristics. The functional content of public spaces aimed at meeting the needs of various social and age groups, and communications that allow combining open public and green spaces into a holistic recreational complex are described.
The new public space should perform not only a recreational function, but also a communication one. It will allow linking the Bibirevo and Otradnoye districts by a pedestrian route and will provide free movement between the banks of the river.
Analysis of seepage control system improvement in an earthen dam
Authors: Shirazi Mohammad Gharehzadeh , Rashid Ahmad Safuan Bin A , Ganiyu Abideen Adekunle
Published: November 2021

This paper concerns the adequacy of utilising a chimney drain, horizontal filter and cutoff wall in reducing seepage through an earthen dam. To this end, anti-seepage systems comprising a chimney drain, a horizontal filter and a cutoff wall were investigated. Variations of lengths, angles and locations of these features were studied. The amount of seepage was determined using SEEP/W software. The results indicated that by expanding the vertical chimney drain and the horizontal filter from the embankment toe to half or three-quarters of the downstream slope, the seepage flow from the dam body and its foundation will decrease. On the contrary, when the horizontal filter's length is extended to more than three-quarters of the dam's downstream slope, the amount of seepage flow that may pass through the dam's cross-section rapidly increases. Additionally, it was observed that seepage from the earthen dam and its foundation reduced by increasing the cutoff depth. Finally, with respect to the minimum factor of safety for the downstream slope, obtained using SLOPE/W software, a suitable model for seepage control within the body and foundation of the dam was found to be the hybrid model introduced at the end of this study.
COVİD-19 İLE MÜCADELEDE DAVRANIŞSAL KAMU POLİTİKASI ARACI OLARAK DİNİN YERİ
Authors: KILIÇ Esra
Published: November 2021

Aralık 2019 itibariyle dünyanın büyük bir kısmını etkisi altına alan COVID-19’un çok ciddi sosyal, ekonomik ve psikolojik etkileri bulunmaktadır. Devletler ve uluslararası kuruluşlar COVID-19 ile mücadelede paternalistik politikaların yanı sıra davranışsal kamu politikalarına başvurmaktadır. Davranışsal iktisatçılara göre birey davranışları ahlaki norm ve değer yargılarının etkisi altında bulunmaktadır. Birey davranışlarının ahlaki norm kaynaklarından biri de dindir. Buradan hareketle; çalışmanın temel amacı, “Din COVID-19 ile mücadelede davranışsal kamu politikası aracı olarak kullanılabilir mi?” sorusunun yanıtlanmasıdır. Çalışma literatür değerlendirmesine dayanmaktadır. Neticede; dinin arzu edilen davranışa yönelik mesaj vermede toplum tarafından güven duyulan kişinin seçilmesi, tetikleme, sosyal norm ve akranları aracılığıyla ikna etme gibi dürtme yöntemlerine entegre edilerek COVID-19’la mücadelede davranışsal kamu politikası aracı olarak kullanılabileceği önerilmektedir. Ancak bu noktada; kişilerin dini liderlere ve kuruluşlara yönelik güven düzeyi, toplumun dindarlık düzeyi, toplumun genelinin COVID-19 önlemlerine uymak için hangi araçlarla motive edilebileceğinin ve bunun farklı gruplar için nasıl çeşitlendirilebileceği faktörlerinin de belirleyici olacağı düşünülmektedir.
Arrival times of P waves and upper mantle structure
Authors: Tryggvason Eysteinn
Published: November 2021

Residuals of arrival times of P waves, as given in the International Seismological Summary for Kiruna, Sweden, Reykjavik, Iceland, and Scoresbysund, Greenland, were studied in order to detect upper mantle anomalies. The Kiruna arrivals were systematically too early, with a mean residual of −1.4 seconds, while the mean Reykjavik residual was +1.3 seconds. The difference in mean residual was 2.7 seconds with a standard error of about 0.5 second. The mean residual at Scoresbysund was −0.4 second.

It is assumed that there is a depth D below which the mantle is homogeneous. The difference in mean residuals at the stations is assumed to be caused by different wave velocities at depths less than D in the vicinities of the stations. If it is assumed that the P-wave velocity in the upper mantle is constant down to a depth D below each station, this depth can be computed. This velocity is known from other data to be 8.36 km/sec below Kiruna and 7.4 km./sec. below Reykjavik. If only earthquakes at distances from 20° to 39° were used, D is determined to be 246 ± 36 km. (standard error). Earthquakes at distances 40° to 59° give D = 177 ± 25 km., at distances 60° to 79° give D = 234 ± 14 km., and at distances 80° to 99° give D = 281 ± 20 km. The most probable value of D is thus about 240 km. below the earth's surface, with a standard error of about 40 km. In the vicinity of Scoresbysund the upper mantle velocity is found to be about 8.0 km./sec., using the same assumption.
A Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Model of the Action of Hypomethylating Agents in Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukaemia
Authors: Jackson Robert , Radivoyevitch Tomas
Published: November 2021

Chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML) is a disease that borders between a myelodyplastic syndrome (MDS) and myeloproliferative neoplasia (MPN). It is a progressive condition: about 20% of CMML patients progress to secondary acute myeloid leukaemia (sAML), which has a very poor prognosis. In all cases, normal bone marrow function is compromised with resulting depletion of circulating erythrocytes and platelets. We modelled the dynamics of CMML at two levels: a cytokinetic model was developed that describes bone marrow cell population dynamics for multiple cell lineages, and changes in DNA mutational status that occur in MDS and CMML. This model, in conjunction with pharmacokinetic (PK) models for cytotoxic drugs and hypomethylating agents, was used to study the pharmacodynamics (PD) of these drugs. For the subset of CMML with loss of activity of TET2, our models suggest that TET2 activators may restore normal DNA methylation with a resulting antileukaemic effect. Mouse and human data were used to place bounds on the parameters of our model. Our modelling suggests that both hypomethylation and cytotoxic effects contribute to the antileukaemic activity of decitabine.
Clinical and Pathologic features of North American/Caribbean Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL), the Brooklyn, NY experience
Authors: Sun Yi , Guillamot Maria , Dolgalev Igor , Aifantis Iannis , Axiotis Constantine
Published: November 2021

Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is a rare, highly aggressive, T-cell malignancy caused by human T-cell leukemia/lymphoma virus type 1(HTLV-1) infection.1 It is estimated that there are at least 5-10 million HTLV-1 carriers worldwide. Most of the HTLV-1 infection is thought to be acquired from mother-to-child transmission through breastfeeding. Sexual transmission and blood transfusion are other means of infection. Only a small number (2-5%) of HTLV-1 infected patients develop ATLL, usually after a long latency period (30-50 years after infection), suggesting additional genetic and epigenetic events are required for HTLV-1 infected cells to transform to ATLL. 2-3ATLL is endemic in certain regions where HTLV-1 infection is prevalent, including southwestern Japan, the Caribbean basin, areas of South America and tropical Africa.4 ATLL is rare in North America and the majority of the patients are immigrants from Caribbean basin, and rarely, of US-born African Americans. Studies have shown that HTLV-1 infection is prevalent in the black, predominantly Caribbean population of central Brooklyn, NY and that ATLL is endemic in this community. 5-7 Here we review the clinical and pathologic features of Caribbean ATLL and present our findings in a cohort of ATLL from central Brooklyn, NY. Our data suggest that Caribbean ATLL is not only clinically but also molecularly distinct from Japanese ATLL. Epigenetically targeted therapy may be a potential effective adjunct therapy in treatment of ATLL.
Impact of inhaled oxygen on reactive oxygen species production and oxidative damage during spontaneous ventilation in a murine model of acute renal ischemia and reperfusion
Authors: Kimlinger Melissa , Mace Eric , Harris Raymond , Zhang Ming-Zhi , Barajas Matthew , Hernandez Antonio , Billings Frederic
Published: November 2021

Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects 10% of patients following major surgery and is independently associated with extra-renal organ injury, development of chronic kidney disease, and death. Perioperative renal ischemia and reperfusion (IR) contributes to AKI by, in part, increasing production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and leading to oxidative damage. Variations in inhaled oxygen may mediate some aspects of IR injury by affecting tissue oxygenation, ROS production, and oxidative damage. We tested the hypothesis that provision of air (normoxia) compared to 100% oxygen (hyperoxia) during murine renal IR affects renal ROS production and oxidative damage. Methods: We administered 100% oxygen or air to 8-9 week-old FVB/N mice and performed dorsal unilateral nephrectomy with contralateral renal ischemia/reperfusion surgery while mice spontaneously ventilated. We subjected mice to 30 minutes of ischemia and 30 minutes of reperfusion prior to sacrifice. We obtained an arterial blood gas (ABG) by performing sternotomy and left cardiac puncture. We stained the kidney with pimonidazole, a marker of tissue hypoxia; 4-HNE, a marker of ROS-production; and measured F 2 -isoprostanes in homogenized tissue to quantify oxidative damage. Results: Hyperoxia during IR increased arterial oxygen content compared to normoxia, but both groups of mice were hypoventilating at the time of ABG sampling. Renal tissue hypoxia following reperfusion was similar in both treatment groups. ROS production was similar in the cortex of mice (3.8% area in hyperoxia vs. 3.1% in normoxia, P=0.19) but increased in the medulla of hyperoxia-treated animals (6.3% area in hyperoxia vs. 4.5% in nomoxia, P=0.02). Renal F 2 -isoprostanes were similar in treatment groups (2.2 pg/mg kidney in hyperoxia vs. 2.1 pg/mg in normoxia, P=0.40). Conclusions: Hyperoxia during spontaneous ventilation in murine renal IR did not appear to affect renal hypoxia following reperfusion, but hyperoxia increased medullary ROS production compared to normoxia.
El cuidado de sí y la figura del Pedagogo
Authors: Pérez Sánchez Yolotzin
Published: November 2021

El cuidado de sí como noción recuperada de la antigüedad griega se planteó como interés principal para estudiar las prácticas del pedagogo, sin embargo, estudiar el cuidado de sí comprende otras dos nociones importantes, la epimeleia heautou (inquietud de sí) y la tekhne tou biou (arte de vivir). Así que para remitir a ellas, se siguió un estudio teórico y metodológico del trabajo de Michel Foucault, refiriendo a la última parte de sus investigaciones, donde se puede encontrar un interés fascinante por el cuidado de sí y la constitución ética del sujeto. 

El objeto de la investigación es la práctica de cuidado de sí en las prácticas del pedagogo, lo que posibilitó primero, comprender el cuidado de sí a partir de la subjetividad y la relación sujeto-verdad; segundo, comprender y vincular la ética y estética de la existencia a partir de la tekhne tou biou, el gobierno de sí y la parrhesía; y, por último, estudiar y tener un primer acercamiento a la genealogía del pedagogo.

Para pensar al pedagogo junto al cuidado de sí, se sugirió un modo de subjetivación distinto, es decir, un modo distinto de relacionarse con la regla y la norma, remitiendo a su práctica desde su objeto de interés y deseo: el cuidado de los otros. Bajo este entendido, la práctica del educador, entendida desde la antigüedad griega, y la práctica pedagógica se muestran paralelas, no obstante, en esta última se desarrollan una serie de técnicas y ejercicios que lo sitúan y lo constituyen de otro modo, un modo que ni aquí ni en ningún otro lugar debe prescribirse, pues al tratarse de la tekhne tou biou, no hay reglas impuestas ni códigos a los que sujetarse rigurosa y obligatoriamente para constituirse como sujetos estéticos.

3x + 1 Problem: Iterative Operations Neither Cause Loops nor Diverge to Infinity
Authors: Jiang Li
Published: November 2021

The 3x+1 problem is a problem of continuous iteration for integers. According to the basic theorem of arithmetic and the way of iteration, we derive a general formula for continuous iteration for odd integers. Through this formula, we can construct a loop iteration equation and obtain the result of the equation: the equation has only one positive integer solution. In addition, this general formula can be converted into a linear indeterminate equation. The process of solving this equation shows that the relationship between the iteration result and the odd number being iterated is linear. Extending this result to all positive even numbers, we get the answer to the 3x + 1 question.
An Investigation of Surface Stress on the Fracture Mechanics Behavior of Classical and Phase-Separating Planar Electrodes
Authors: Mahmoudy Seyed Ali , Haftbaradaran Hamed
Published: November 2021

Although lithium-ion batteries have extensively been used in various applications because of their high energy capacity, fracture and failure, the by-products of large strains and stresses caused by fast charging and discharging need yet to be addressed. The size effects on the mechanical behavior of the nano-sized structures are significant; however, the classical elasticity theory may not consider such effects. On the other hand, surface stress theory, as a robust and potential theory, is suitable in considering size effects in nano-scale structures. Therefore, in this paper, in order to involve the surface stress effects on the fracture behavior of Li-ion batteries, the following steps are taken. Firstly, a phase-field model is used to determine the evolution of the concentration profile. Subsequently, the stress distribution is obtained by using the surface stress theory combined with chemical equations for a planar electrode. Afterward, by using the weight function method for an edge crack in the plate, the stress intensity factor is derived for all time steps and possible crack lengths during the process. It is found that with increasing phase boundary thickness parameter or decreasing phase-separation phenomenon, the surface mechanics parameters become more influential. Furthermore, in the presence of positive surface stress, the diffusion-induced stress distribution decreases, which in turn reduces the stress intensity factor. In addition, in this paper, the two states of surface stress are compared either for elastic or total strain. Concerning stresses and concentrations, the results indicate a big difference at the beginning of the deintercalation process showing, in particular, 2% for stresses, but the differences diminish gradually.
Neurogenic Inflammation: One of the Participants of Migraine and the Contribution of Translational Research
Authors: Spekker Eleonóra , Tanaka Masaru , Szabó Ágnes , Vécsei László
Published: November 2021

Migraine is a primary headache disorder characterized by unilateral throbbing, pulsing headache, which lasts for hours to days, and the pain can interfere with daily activities. It exhibits various symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light, sound, and odors and physical activity consistently contributes to worsening pain. Despite the intensive research, little is still known about the pathomechanism of migraine. It is widely accepted that migraine involves activation and sensitization of the trigeminovascular system. It leads to the release of several pro-inflammatory neuropeptides and neurotransmitters and causes a cascade of inflammatory tissue responses including vasodilation, plasma extravasation secondary to capillary leakage, edema, and mast cell degranulation. Convincing evidence obtained in rodent models suggests that neurogenic inflammation is assumed to contribute to the development of a migraine attack. Chemical stimulation of the dura mater triggers activation and sensitization of the trigeminal system and causes numerous molecular and behavioral changes; therefore, this is a relevant animal model of acute migraine.

The upper extremities limitation represents one of the essential functional impairments in patients with cervical spinal cord injury. Electromechanics assisted devices and robots are increasingly used in neurorehabilitation to help functional improvement in patients with neurological diseases. This review aimed to systematically report the evidence-based, state-of-art on clinical applications and robotic-assisted arm training (RAT) in motor and functional recovery in subjects affected by cervical spinal cord injury. The present study has been carried out within the framework of the Italian Consensus Conference on "Rehabilitation assisted by robotic and electromechanical devices for persons with disability of neurological origin" (CICERONE). PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) databases were systematically searched from inception to September 2021. The 10-item PEDro scale assessed the study quality for the RCT and the AMSTAR-2 for the systematic review. Two different authors rated the studies included in this review. If consensus was not achieved after discussion, a third reviewer was interrogated. The 5-item Oxford CEBM scale was used to rate the level of evidence. A total of 11 studies were included. The selected studies were: two systematic reviews, two RCTs, one parallel-group controlled trial, one longitudinal intervention study and five case series. One RCT was scored as a high-quality study, while the systematic review was of low quality. RAT was reported as feasible and safe. Initial positive effects of RAT were found for arm function and quality of movement in addition to conventional therapy. The high clinical heterogeneity of treatment programs and the variety of robot devices could severely affect the generalizability of the study results; therefore, future studies are warranted to standardize the type of intervention and evaluate the role of robotic-assisted training in subjects affected by cervical spinal cord injury.

During planetary exploration mission operations, one of the key responsibilities of the instrument teams to determine data viability for subsequent analysis. During the 2019 CanMoon Lunar Sample Return Analogue Mission, the Lead Raman Specialist manually examined each spectra to provide quality assurance/validation. This non-trivial process requires years of experience to complete accurately. With the proven efficacy of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) in classification tasks, and the increased use of automation and control loops on planetary space platforms for navigation and science targeting, an opportunity presents itself to approach this validation problem utilising CNNs. We present the Generalised Raman Validation Network (GRaVN), an neural network focused specifically on extracting the generalised structure of Raman spectra for quality assurance/validation. This work demonstrates the viability of utilising a CNN network in validation activities for Raman spectroscopy. Utilising only two hidden layers, a configuration was developed that provided good levels of accuracy on a manually curated dataset. This indicates that such a system could be useful as part of an autonomous control loop during planetary exploration activities.
What Determines the Parameters of a Propagating Streamer: A Comparison of Outputs of the Streamer Parameter Model and of Hydrodynamic Simulations
Authors: Lehtinen Nikolai G. , Marskar Robert
Published: November 2021

Electric streamer discharges (streamers) in air are a very important stage of lightning, taking place before formation of the leader discharge, and with which an electric discharge starts from conducting objects which enhance the background elecric field, such as airplanes. Despite years of research, it is still not well understood what mechanism determines the values of streamer parameters, such as its radius and propagation velocity. The Streamer Parameter Model (SPM) is aimed to understand this mechanism, as well as to provide a way to efficiently calculate streamer parameters. Previously, we demonstrated that SPM results compared well with a limited set of experimental data. In this Brief Report, we compare SPM predictions to the published hydrodynamic simulation (HDS) results.

PSD-95 (Dlg4) is an ionotropic glutamate receptor scaffolding protein essential in synapse stability and neurotransmission. PSD-95 levels are reduced during aging and in neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington’s disease (HD), and it is believed to contribute to synaptic dysfunction and behavioral deficits. However, the mechanism responsible for PSD-95 dysregulation under these conditions is unknown. The Heat Shock transcription Factor 1 (HSF1), canonically known for its role in protein homeostasis, is also depleted in both aging and HD. Synaptic protein levels, including PSD-95, are influenced by alterations in HSF1 levels and activity, but the direct regulatory relationship between PSD-95 and HSF1 has yet to be determined. Here, we showed that HSF1 chronic or acute depletion in cell lines and mice decreased PSD-95 expression. Furthermore, HSF1(+/-) mice had reduced PSD-95 synaptic puncta that paralleled a loss in thalamo-striatal excitatory synapses, an important circuit disrupted early in HD. We demonstrated that HSF1 binds to regulatory elements present in the PSD-95 gene and directly regulates PSD-95 expression. HSF1 DNA-binding on the PSD-95 gene was disrupted in an age-dependent manner in WT mice and worsened in HD cells and mice, leading to reduced PSD-95 levels. These results demonstrate a direct role of HSF1 in synaptic gene regulation that has important implications in synapse maintenance in basal and pathological conditions.
Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Fasciotomy in Lumbar Paraspinal Compartment Syndrome
Authors: Kim Daniel C. , Padhye Kedar , Schwender Eric , Shafa Eiman
Published: November 2021

Case:

Lumbar paraspinal compartment syndrome (LPCS) is a rare but potentially catastrophic pathology caused by increased intracompartmental pressures leading to potential ischemic necrosis of muscle, local denervation, and complications of rhabdomyolysis. A combination of unique clinical history and examination findings, laboratory findings, and radiologic imaging help in diagnosis.

Conclusion:

Early detection and intervention with minimally invasive percutaneous fasciotomy can minimize local soft tissue trauma while providing extensive fascial release with good clinical outcomes. Radiographic follow-up in this case suggests that the muscle at risk in LPCS can be spared with early surgical intervention.
Congenital Pseudarthrosis of the Tibia Associated With Cleidocranial Dysostosis
Authors: McClure Philip K. , Franzone Jeanne M. , Herzenberg John E.
Published: November 2021

Case:

We describe a case of 2 individually rare diseases existing comorbidly in the form of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) coincident with cleidocranial dysostosis and provide a review of the literature, including the sole preexisting documented coincidence.

Conclusion:

Understanding, treatment, and surgical protocol of CPT have changed considerably since this comorbidity was last reported. Updates include synostosis, periosteal grafting, the use of bone morphogenetic protein, and bisphosphonates. Our case varies from the previous in associated disorder and family history. The relationship between CBFA1 and RUNX2 genes may hold the key, but further study is needed.
Tension Hydrothorax After Attempted Arthroscopic Fixation of Greater Tuberosity Fracture in a Trauma Patient
Authors: Diltz Zachary R. , Baessler Aaron M. , Brolin Tyler J.
Published: November 2021

Case:

We report the case of a 27-year-old man who presented after a 30-foot fall with a hemopneumothorax, multiple rib fractures, and left shoulder dislocation with greater tuberosity fracture. During attempted arthroscopic repair, the patient developed pulseless electrical activity arrest as the result of intraoperative tension hydrothorax. We hypothesize that this was caused by a traumatic soft-tissue communication to his shoulder joint from the apex of his lung.

Conclusion:

To our knowledge, this is a unique and unreported complication of shoulder arthroscopy and should increase awareness about possibly delaying surgery in the setting of significant soft-tissue trauma.

El estudio dio origen a este trabajo tuvo como objetivo validar la escala clima organizacional en servidores administrativos de una universidad pública. El estudio es de tipo instrumental para valorar las propiedades psicométricas de la escala. Los participantes fueron 624 servidores administrativos de la universidad pública. Se elaboró el instrumento tomando como referencia otros instrumentos validados sobre el clima organizacional y se usaron indicadores de validez de contenido —cinco jueces expertos con la fórmula de la V de Aiken—. Además, se realizó el análisis factorial confirmatorio de primer y de segundo orden, y para el análisis de consistencia interna se utilizó el coeficiente de omega factorial. Los resultados muestran índices adecuados de validez de contenido para 75 ítems, mientras que el análisis factorial confirmatorio de primer orden mostró parámetros de ajuste apropiados luego de redefinir la escala para las tres dimensiones y los cincuenta ítems. El análisis de segundo orden no mostró adecuados indicadores de bondad de ajuste. Se analizaron las dimensiones como no correlacionadas —ortogonales—, de manera que se encontraron cargas factoriales altas en las tres dimensiones. Finalmente, la escala mostró una alta consistencia interna. Se concluye que la escala cuenta con una estructura factorial tridimensional e indicadores de validez y confiabilidad aceptables para la medición del clima organizacional.
