Background. Increased body mass index (BMI) is one of the main factors affecting the restoration of urine retention and erectile function after a robot-assisted prostatectomy (RARP).
Purpose. To determine the extent to which increased BMI affects functional results after robot-assisted prostatectomy.
Materials and Methods. From 2017 to 2023, a prospective study was conducted at the National Medical and Surgical Center named after N.I. Pirogov to determine the effect of increased BMI on the restoration of functional outcomes after a robot-assisted prostatectomy. The number of the patients included in the study was 100 people, divided into 2 groups equally. Group 1 had patients with increased BMI (≥30). Group 2 included patients with normal BMI. The quality of life of patients in both groups was determined using the IPSS (International Prostate Symptom Score) and IIEF-5 (International Index of Erectile Function) questionnaires. For the reliability of the study, all patients underwent RARP performed by one surgeon using the same technique with bilateral preservation of the neurovascular bundles of the pancreas.
Results. In order to determine the presence and severity of erectile dysfunction during the pre-treatment examination before the RARP, the IIEF-5 questionnaire was used. The final result in patients of group 1 averaged 17±3 points [14; 20], and in group 2 the same index was 22±2 points [20; 24]. After the expiration of the dynamic follow-up period, all patients re-completed the IIEF-5 questionnaire. Also during the study, the International Conference on Incontinence Questionnaire — Short Form (ICIQ — SF) was used to determine the patients’ quality of life dependent on “urination disorder”. In the postoperative period, the patients in group 1 had the final score of 10±3 [7; 13] points, and in group 2, the same indicator was 4±1 [3; 5] points.
Conclusion. Increased BMI is a predisposing factor for urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction (ED) in the postoperative period after RARP.

Authors: Tseng Wei-Chih , Liao Chao-Yaug , Chassagne Luc , Cagneau Barthélemy
Published: December 2024

Extrusion-based bioprinting (EBB) is an efficient, simple, and cost-effective bioprinting technique. However, because of the high complexity of biomaterial inks, a trial-and-error approach is typically required for determining the optimal printing parameter configurations. Thus, the quality and reproducibility of printed scaffolds remain a concern. In this study, we integrated flow sensing into the EBB and replaced conventional fixed-value printing parameters by capturing the time-series data of all printing parameters to enhance the monitoring of the printing process. To improve the EBB adaptability, we conducted experiments with three biomaterial inks with distinct properties under various parameter configurations to achieve ink-insensitive linewidth prediction through the construction and assessment of deep learning models. Additionally, two explainable artificial intelligence methods were used to analyze the decision-making process of the deep learning model. This analysis not only enhanced model reliability but also identified key features in printing parameters and time-series data. These results can be used to improve the efficiency and quality of the EBB processes by using various biomaterial inks.

Authors: - Jyotsna Singh
Published: December 2024

Hindu jurisprudence, deeply rooted in the ancient principles of Dharma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha, represents a rich legal and philosophical tradition that has evolved over millennia. This paper explores the foundational texts—Shruti, Smriti, and other commentaries—that have guided Hindu law, emphasizing their continued relevance in modern legal systems. Central to Hindu jurisprudence is the ethical concept of Dharma, ensuring societal harmony and justice. Complementing this are Artha, which governs economic policies; Kama, regulating personal desires; and Moksha, the ultimate spiritual goal.
The study highlights the enduring influence of these principles on contemporary Indian law, from family laws under the Hindu Marriage Act and Hindu Succession Act to broader secular laws emphasizing equality and social justice. It also examines the reformist contributions of Swami Dayananda Saraswati and Swami Vivekananda, who synthesized Vedic ideals with modern values, advancing gender equality and social justice. Concepts like Sarva Dharma Sambhav and Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam are analyzed as reflections of Hindu pluralism and their role in shaping a constitutional ethos that promotes inclusivity.
This paper underscores how Hindu jurisprudence has adapted to modern challenges while preserving its ethical core, offering insights into its potential to guide global legal and moral discourse in an increasingly interconnected world.

Polycystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD) is an extremely common endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age. It is associated with hormonal imbalances, leading to menstrual irregularities, infertility, and metabolic complications. Early detection and appropriate management of Poly Cystic Ovarian Disease can help prevent long-term health consequences such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and infertility. This study attempted to measure the effectiveness of a Video-Assisted Teaching Program on knowledge related to early identification and management of PCOD among young adults at Sanjay Gandhi College of Nursing, Bangalore. A pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design was used for the study. Simple random sampling was used, and a total of 50 young adults were selected. The knowledge questionnaire was structured and had comprehensive information regarding the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and management strategies of Poly Cystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD). Data were collected before and after administering the Video Assisted Teaching Program. The results of the pre-test revealed that 94% of the participants had inadequate knowledge with a mean score of 6.34 (31.7%). After the intervention, the post-test results had a significant improvement in knowledge, with 44% achieving adequate knowledge and a mean score of 15.3 (76.5%). Statistical analysis using a paired t-test indicated that the Video Assisted Teaching Program was highly effective, with a t-value of 2.42, significant at p < 0.05. In addition, significant associations were found between the pre-test knowledge scores and selected socio-demographic variables, such as year of study, socio-economic status, and parental education. The results indicate that video-assisted teaching is an effective educational tool to raise the awareness and understanding of Poly Cystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD) among young adults. The study emphasizes the need for incorporating innovative educational strategies like VATP into nursing curricula to improve reproductive health literacy and empower individuals to adopt preventive and management measures effectively. Future studies could explore similar interventions on larger, more diverse populations.

This study investigates the incorporation of nylon and coir fibres in concrete to improve its performance for hospital building design. Nylon fibres were added at 0.5%, 0.75%, and 1% by volume, demonstrating notable improvements in tensile strength and reduced crack formation, particularly at the 0.75% dosage. This enhancement is crucial for meeting the structural integrity and durability requirements of healthcare facilities, where safety and resilience are paramount.
Coir fibres were introduced at 1%, 2%, and 3%, effectively increasing the ductility and energy absorption characteristics of the concrete. The optimal performance was observed at the 2% dosage, which not only contributed to better structural performance but also promoted sustainability through the use of natural fibres. Overall, the synergistic effects of both nylon and coir fibres in concrete demonstrate their potential to significantly enhance the mechanical
properties and longevity of materials used in the construction of hospitals, supporting the need for innovative and durable building solutions in healthcare environments.

With the ongoing changes and disruptions rampant within the industry, it is imperative to study the factors and reassess their practical viability in real-life situations, fostering leadership resilience and adaptability during times of change and uncertainty within an organization. Through an extensive literature review, essential factors for senior and middle-level leadership have been identified and developed in the paper.

Literature in the field of resilience suggests numerous variables that characterize it, such as positive self-esteem, coping skills, sense of coherence, optimism, hardiness, strong social resources, self-efficacy, adaptability, risk-taking, low fear of failure, perseverance, determination, and a high tolerance for uncertainty. Researchers like Bonanno (2004), Carver (1998), Masten (2005), O’Leary (1998), Patterson et al. (2002), and Ungar (2004) have cited these variables.

From the literature review, it is evident that the majority of research papers focus on factors essential for leadership in organizations to navigate uncertain times and challenges. Factors that cultivate a resilient environment have been identified. However, there is a notable scarcity of real-life case studies supporting these claims. Xiao and Cao (2017) found in their research that while past studies discussed about the various concepts and measurement pertaining to organizational resilience, however they strongly felt that there is a dearth of integrative constructs and empirical research due to the unpredictable nature of crises and uncertainty, along with a lack of samples.

Thus, there is an opportunity to enrich the existing body of knowledge by substantiating past researchers' and social scientists' assertions regarding the effect of various factors on organizational resilience and styles of leadership during uncertain times with real-life examples.

The objective of this research paper is to study all the factors or constructs contributing to organizational resilience and leadership adaptability from the literature review and to substantiate them with a real-life case illustrating how an organization managed its business during change and uncertainty.
