Background

anastomosis leak still being a handicap in colorectal surgery. Bowel mechanical preparation and oral antibiotics are not a practice recommended in many clinical practice guides. The aim is to analyse the decrease in frequency and severity of postoperative complications, mainly related to anastomotic leak, after the establishment of a bundle.

Methods

Single-center, before-after study. A bundle was implemented to reduce anastomotic leaks and their consequences. The Bundle group were matched to Pre-bundle group by propensity score matching. Mechanical bowel preparation, oral and intravenous antibiotics, inflammatory markers measure and early diagnosis algorithm were included at the bundle.

Results

The bundle group shown fewer complications, especially in Clavien Dindós Grade IV complications (2.3% vs. 6.2% p < 0.01), as well as a lower rate of anastomotic leakage (15.5% vs. 2.2% p < 0.01). A significant decrease in reinterventions, less intensive unit care admissions, a shorter hospital stay and fewer readmissions were also observed. In multivariate analysis, the application of a bundle was an anastomotic leakage protective factor (OR 0.121, p > 0.05)

Conclusions

The implementation of our bundle in colorectal surgery which include oral antibiotics, mechanical bowel preparation and inflammatory markers, significantly reduces morbidity adjusted to severity of complications, the anastomotic leakage rate, hospital stay and readmissions.

Published: February 2023

Intramedullary fixation is currently used to stabilize intertrochanteric fractures. Surgical reduction of the medial arch cortex is crucial to achieve stabilization of the internal fixation system, however, it is challenging to perform. To ensure anatomical reduction, we developed a novel surgical technique to assist in achieving accurate and convenient reduction. In this technique, right-angle forceps were used to pry and reset medial arch cortex fragmentsviaa mini-helical blade incision. Noteworthily, all patients who underwent this technique achieved anatomical reduction with reduced operation times and bleeding. Our article illustrates intraoperative reduction techniques and summarizes tips and tricks that may be beneficial and educative for orthopedists.

Published: February 2023

In recent years, therapy dogs in medical and assisted living facilities have become popular in Japan, and the demand for such dogs has increased. However, some owners have their dogs take this test, which evaluates the dog’s talent, without understanding what is required of the test. The system needs to teach owners in an understandable way whether their dog is suitable to become a therapy dog so that the owners can determine if their dog is ready to be tested. Therefore, we suggest that easy at-home testing is likely to encourage dog owners to apply for their dog to take the aptitude test. If more dogs take the test, more therapy dogs can be born. The purpose of this study was to identify the personality traits of therapy dogs that pass the aptitude test by using the Canine Behavior Assessment and Research Questionnaire (C-BARQ). The C-BARQ was administered to dogs that previously passed the aptitude test for therapy training at the Hokkaido Volunteer Dog Association, assessing their behavioural displays. A factor analysis was conducted for each questionnaire item, and a total of 98 items were analyzed. Data were collected from the results of 110 dogs encompassing 30 dog breeds, with the most common breeds including Labrador Retrievers, Golden Retrievers, and Toy Poodles. Factor analysis revealed that 14 extracted factors should be evaluated. Given these personality traits and the fact that breed and age did not influence aptitude, we believe that a variety of dogs have the potential to become therapy dogs.

Published: February 2023

A single-slope greenhouse (SSG) is the general name of a kind of agricultural greenhouse facility widely used in China. Microclimate studies for SSGs in Weifang, Shandong Province, are relatively scarce. This paper mainly discusses the test data of nine SSGs including temperature, humidity, solar global radiation intensity, CO2 concentration, wind speed, and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) trend. Moreover, the conservation of quality method is used to estimate the ventilation volume and humidity growth after opening the top vent in the greenhouse. Through the analysis in this paper, for local SSGs, the internal environmental change has commonality but its internal environment is still influenced by many factors, such as plant planting density, internal cover, plant growth height, and vent opening time. In addition, the method in this paper can provide a quantitative tool for calculating and controlling humidity for researchers and greenhouse workers and provide a basis for greenhouse ventilation strategies.

Published: February 2023

As significant physical carriers of hydraulic science and technology, water cultural heritage (WCH) structures might exert positive effects on the economy, society, and environment. However, it is challenging to develop a scientific conservation plan due to the lack of comprehensive cognition and value assessment criteria for the vast majority of WCH structures. In this study, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and geographic information systems (GIS) were introduced to develop a multidimensional evaluation system for WCH in Beijing based on the suitability perspective. This approach proposes a strategy covering macro, meso, and micro levels based on three aspects: heritage value, spatial distribution, and environmental resistance. The findings indicated that there are significant differences in values among the nine heritage categories, and royal gardens and rivers were suggested for greater emphasis on protection. Besides, the distribution of WCH structures is clustered, which can be categorized into four distinct agglomerative zones. Most of the heritage sites are found on built-up land with low elevation and gentle slopes, resulting in high environmental suitability. Lastly, we proposed a framework for conservation with “one centre, two wings, one area, and a multi-node” to facilitate the development of effective policies by decision-makers.
GFI-Net: Global Feature Interaction Network for Monocular Depth Estimation
Authors: Zhang Cong , Xu Ke , Ma Yanxin , Wan Jianwei
Published: February 2023

Monocular depth estimation techniques are used to recover the distance from the target to the camera plane in an image scene. However, there are still several problems, such as insufficient estimation accuracy, the inaccurate localization of details, and depth discontinuity in planes parallel to the camera plane. To solve these problems, we propose the Global Feature Interaction Network (GFI-Net), which aims to utilize geometric features, such as object locations and vanishing points, on a global scale. In order to capture the interactive information of the width, height, and channel of the feature graph and expand the global information in the network, we designed a global interactive attention mechanism. The global interactive attention mechanism reduces the loss of pixel information and improves the performance of depth estimation. Furthermore, the encoder uses the Transformer to reduce coding losses and improve the accuracy of depth estimation. Finally, a local–global feature fusion module is designed to improve the depth map’s representation of detailed areas. The experimental results on the NYU-Depth-v2 dataset and the KITTI dataset showed that our model achieved state-of-the-art performance with full detail recovery and depth continuation on the same plane.

Published: February 2023

A nuclear power plant is a complex coupling system, which features multi-physics coupling between reactor physics and thermal-hydraulics in the reactor core, as well as the multi-circuit coupling between the primary circuit and the secondary circuit by the shared steam generator (SG). Especially in the pebble-bed modular HTR nuclear power plant, different nuclear steam supply modules are further coupled together through the shared main steam pipes and the related equipment in the secondary circuit, since the special configuration of multiple reactor modules connects to a steam turbine. The JFNK (Jacobian-Free Newton–Krylov) method provides a promising coupling framework to solve the whole HTR nuclear power plant problem, due to its excellent convergence rate and strong robustness. In this work, the JFNK method was modified and applied to the steady-state calculation of the HTR secondary circuit, which plays an important role in simultaneous solutions for the whole HTR nuclear power plant. The main components in the secondary circuit included SG, steam turbine, condenser, feed pump, high/low-pressure heat exchanger, deaerator, as well as the extraction steam from the steam turbine. The results showed that the JFNK method can effectively solve the steady state issue of the HTR secondary circuit. Moreover, the JFNK method could converge well within a wide range of initial values, indicating its strong robustness.

Authors: Vlachos Omiros , Papaioannou Athanasios G.
Published: February 2023

The main aim of this study was to investigate the construct validity of a new MUltidimensional MOtivational Climate questionnaire in Physical Education (PE) at the Situational level of generality (MUMOC-PES), capturing four dimensions of empowering (autonomy support, task-involvement, relatedness support, structure) and three dimensions of disempowering (controlling, relatedness thwarting, ego-involvement) climate. Nine hundred and fifty-six adolescent students completed the new measure alongside measures of mastery and performance approach/avoidance climate and satisfaction. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the construct validity of the MUMOC-PES. Student satisfaction in PE corresponded positively to empowering and negatively to disempowering climate dimensions. Controlling for age, gender and within-class individual differences in perceived empowering and disempowering dimensions, class average scores on perceived empowering climate had significant effects on student satisfaction, implying predictive validity for the MUMOC-PES. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) suggested that perceived autonomy support and relatedness thwarting had direct positive and negative effects on satisfaction respectively. Moreover, effects of perceived structure and thwarting relationships on satisfaction were mediated through a mastery climate construct capturing the linkage between perception and mastery goal. The results are discussed in relation to existing measures and literature on motivational climate and the future use of MUMOC-PES in research and PE teachers’ training.

Published: February 2023

The composition of volatile components of cordierite from the Muzkol metamorphic complex was studied using shock destruction with pyrolysis-free gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) with simultaneous IR and Raman spectroscopy. Applying the GC-MS procedure, the component relative concentrations (rel.%) and composition of different zones of cordierite crystals were determined. It was found that the substantially magnesian cordierite was formed with a predominantly aqueous-carbonic acid fluid (from 57.06 to 67.88 rel.% H2O, from 24.29 to 32.95 rel.% CO2). From the center towards the crystal periphery, the molar fraction of carbon dioxide (CO2/(H2O + CO2)) decreases from 0.36 to 0.26, whereas the alkane/alkene ratio increases from 0.80 to 0.88. At least 11 homologous series of organic compounds among the identified volatile components, in addition to water and carbon dioxide, were determined, including oxygen-free aliphatic and cyclic hydrocarbons (paraffins, olefins, cyclic alkanes and alkenes, arenes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)), as well as oxygen-containing (alcohols, esters, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids) and heterocyclic (furans, dioxanes) organic compounds.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the progressive neurological disorders and the main cause of dementia all over the world. The multifactorial nature of Alzheimer’s disease is a reason for the lack of effective drugs as well as a basis for the development of new structural leads. In addition, the appalling side effects such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, muscle cramps, and headaches associated with the marketed treatment modalities and many failed clinical trials significantly limit the use of drugs and alarm for a detailed understanding of disease heterogeneity and the development of preventive and multifaceted remedial approach desperately. With this motivation, we herein report a diverse series of piperidinyl-quinoline acylhydrazone therapeutics as selective as well as potent inhibitors of cholinesterase enzymes. Ultrasound-assisted conjugation of 6/8-methyl-2-(piperidin-1-yl)quinoline-3-carbaldehydes (4a,b) and (un)substituted aromatic acid hydrazides (7a-m) provided facile access to target compounds (8a-m and 9a-j) in 4–6 min in excellent yields. The structures were fully established using spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR, 1H- and 13C NMR, and purity was estimated using elemental analysis. The synthesized compounds were investigated for their cholinesterase inhibitory potential. In vitro enzymatic studies revealed potent and selective inhibitors of AChE and BuChE. Compound 8c showed remarkable results and emerged as a lead candidate for the inhibition of AChE with an IC50 value of 5.3 ± 0.51 µM. The inhibitory strength of the optimal compound was 3-fold higher compared to neostigmine (IC50 = 16.3 ± 1.12 µM). Compound 8g exhibited the highest potency and inhibited the BuChE selectively with an IC50 value of 1.31 ± 0.05 µM. Several compounds, such as 8a-c, also displayed dual inhibitory strength, and acquired data were superior to the standard drugs. In vitro results were further supported by molecular docking analysis, where potent compounds revealed various important interactions with the key amino acid residues in the active site of both enzymes. Molecular dynamics simulation data, as well as physicochemical properties of the lead compounds, supported the identified class of hybrid compounds as a promising avenue for the discovery and development of new molecules for multifactorial diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Published: February 2023

Two new aluminium hydrido complexes were synthesized by reacting AlH3 with the enaminone ligand N-(4,4,4-trifluorobut-1-en-3-on)-6,6,6-trifluoroethylamine (HTFB-TFEA) in different molar ratios to obtain mono- and di-hydrido-aluminium enaminonates. Both air and moisture sensitive compounds could be purified via sublimation under reduced pressure. The spectroscopic analysis and structural motif of the monohydrido compound [H-Al(TFB-TBA)2] (3) showed a monomeric 5-coordinated Al(III) centre bearing two chelating enaminone units and a terminal hydride ligand. However, the dihydrido compound exhibited a rapid C-H bond activation and C-C bond formation in the resulting compound [(Al-TFB-TBA)-HCH2] (4a), which was confirmed by single crystal structural data. The intramolecular hydride shift involving the migration of a hydride ligand from aluminium centre to the alkenyl carbon of the enaminone ligand was probed and verified by multi-nuclear spectral studies (1H,1H NOESY, 13C, 19F, and 27Al NMR).
Recent Advances of Polyphenol Oxidases in Plants
Authors: Zhang Song
Published: February 2023

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) is present in most higher plants, but also in animals and fungi. PPO in plants had been summarized several years ago. However, recent advances in studies of PPO in plants are lacking. This review concludes new researches on PPO distribution, structure, molecular weights, optimal temperature, pH, and substrates. And, the transformation of PPO from latent to active state was also discussed. This state shift is a vital reason for elevating PPO activity, but the activation mechanism in plants has not been elucidated. PPO has an important role in plant stress resistance and physiological metabolism. However, the enzymatic browning reaction induced by PPO is a major problem in the production, processing, and storage of fruits and vegetables. Meanwhile, we summarized various new methods that had been invented to decrease enzymatic browning by inhibiting PPO activity. In addition, our manuscript included information on several important biological functions and the transcriptional regulation of PPO in plants. Furthermore, we also prospect some future research areas of PPO and hope they will be useful for future research in plants.

Published: February 2023

The solution enthalpy of 15-crown-5 and 18-crown-6 ethers in the mixture of formamide (F) and water (W) was measured at four temperatures: 293.15 K, 298.15 K, 303.15 K, 308.15 K. The standard molar enthalpy of solution, ΔsolHo, depends on the size of cyclic ethers molecules and the temperature. With increasing temperature, the values of ΔsolHo become less negative. The values of the standard partial molar heat capacity Cp,2o of cyclic ethers at 298.15 K have been calculated. The Cp,2o=f(xW) curve shape indicates the hydrophobic hydration process of cyclic ethers in the range of a high-water content in the mixture with formamide. The enthalpic effect of preferential solvation of cyclic ethers was calculated and the effect of temperature on the preferential solvation process was discussed. The process of complex formation between 18C6 molecules and formamide molecules is observed. The cyclic ethers molecules are preferentially solvated by formamide molecules. The mole fraction of formamide in the solvation sphere of cyclic ethers has been calculated.

Today, the process of digitisation of everyday life pervades all aspects and areas in which human beings move and realise their interests. The political sphere is no exception and is also influenced by technological innovation. Over the last decade, the development of Web 2.0 has meant that cyberspace, albeit through electronic means, has taken on the characteristics of a physical place in the guise of social platforms. Currently, the continued proliferation of social networks is reviving numerous debates and latent issues that are still unresolved. Against this backdrop, research has been undertaken to understand the different aspects and the many meanings of this new dimension across different fields of research. In fact, the work will initially focus on the role they possess in society and the possible negative declinations resulting from disinformation and will then come to a legal overview in terms of European regulations, with reference to the protection of privacy and personal data following the enactment of EU Regulation 679/2016. The objective of this study is to provide a sociological and legal framework for the ethics of artificial intelligence and legal regulation in Europe. This study aims to promote a scientific and political discussion to improve understanding of the pervasiveness of social networks and related legal implications. Additionally, this study seeks to offer a perspective that leads to ethical and sustainable solutions.

Published: February 2023

Sustainable technological innovation is a key factor for companies seeking competitive advantage. Against the backdrop of the Sino-US trade war, the US government has been severely impeding Chinese enterprises’ technological innovation with its trade policies. Consequently, how to ensure the sustainability of technological innovation is a huge challenge for Chinese enterprises. In the Chinese context of a relationship-based society, network relationships have been instrumental in the process of technological innovation. This study constructs a theoretical model, with market dynamics as the moderator, exploring the impact of three dimensions of network relationships (network relationship selection, network relationship maintenance, and network relationship utilization) on sustainable technological innovation via an empirical analysis of 208 Chinese technology companies. The results of this study indicate that network relationship selection, network relationship maintenance, and network relationship utilization have a positive effect on sustainable technological innovation. Furthermore, the moderating effect of market dynamics on the association between network relationships and sustainable technological innovation is also confirmed. This study contributes to resource-based theory and dynamic capability theory by demonstrating how network relationships influence sustainable technological innovation in varying market dynamics. This study provides a better understanding of the role of network relationships in sustainable technological innovation and suggests that managers should pay attention to the selection, maintenance, and utilization of network relationships in order to achieve sustainable technological innovation. Additionally, managers should also consider market dynamics when making decisions related to network relationships, as they can have a significant impact on sustainable technological innovation.

Authors: Grigore D. R.
Published: February 2023

We consider the general framework of perturbative quantum field theory for the pure Yang–Mills model. We give a more precise version of the Wick theorem using Hopf algebra notations for chronological products and not for Feynman graphs. Next, we prove that the Wick expansion property can be preserved for all cases in order n=2. However, gauge invariance is broken for chronological products of Wick submonomials.

Published: February 2023

Following reports of the first human SARS-CoV2 infection in December 2019 from Wuhan Province, China, there was such rapid spread that by March 2021, the World Health Organization (WHO) had declared a pandemic. Over 6.5 million people have died from this infection worldwide, although this is most likely an underestimate. Until vaccines became available, mortality and severe morbidity were costly in terms of life lost as well as the cost of supporting the severely and acutely ill. Vaccination changed the landscape, and following worldwide adoption, life has gradually been returning to normal. The speed of production of the vaccines was unprecedented and undoubtedly ushered in a new era in the science of fighting infections. The developed vaccines were on the already known platforms for vaccine delivery: inactivated virus, virus vector, virus-like particles (VLP) subunit, DNA and mRNA. The mRNA platform was used for the first time to deliver vaccines to humans. An understanding of these platforms and the pros and cons of each are important for clinicians who are often challenged by the recipients on the advantages and risks of these vaccines. These vaccines have so far and reassuringly been shown to be safe in reproduction (with no effect on gametes) and pregnancy (not associated with congenital malformations). However, safety remains paramount and continuing vigilance is critical, especially against rare fatal complications such as vaccine-induced thrombocytopenia and myocarditis. Finally, the waning immunity months after vaccination means repeated immunisation is likely to be ongoing, but just how often and how many such revaccinations should be recommended remains uncertain. Research into other vaccines and alternate delivery methods should continue as this infection is likely to be around for a long time.

Breast milk is a perfect food both in quality and quantity. Many factors affect exclusive breast feeding, one of which is the lack of maximum milk production. Post partum mothers must have the enthusiasm to give exclusive breast feeding to their babies. With proper breast feeding management, maximum results will be obtained. The purpose of this study was to determine the difference in the amount of breast milk production between the BOM method (Breast Care, Oxytocin Massage, Mermaid Technique) and Breast Care for post partum mothers in the Work Area of the Takeran Health Center. The type of research is Quasi Experiment with Post Test Only Control Group Design. The population is all pregnant women in the work area of the Takeran Health Center whose expected delivery day is in March-April 2022 as many as 32 pregnant women. All affordable populations were sampled. The independent variable is BOM and Breast Care and the dependent variable is breast milk production. Data analysis used the Mann Whitney statistical test with a significance level of p <0.05. In the experimental group using the BOM method, there were 13 respondents (81.3%) whose breast milk production was smooth and 3 respondents (18.7%) whose milk production was not, while in the control group using the Breast Care method 14 respondents ( 87.5%)whose milk production is not smooth and 2 respondents (12.5%)whose milk production is smooth. The results of the Mann Whitney test obtained a significance value of 0.000 < = 0.05. The conclusion of the study is that there is a difference in the amount of milk producti n between the BOM method and breast care. The BOM method can be used as an alternative to non-pharmacological therapy to increase breast milk production in post partum mothers so that it can increase the success of exclusive breast feeding.

Published: February 2023

Malnutrition in toddlers is known to cause disturbances for growth and development. The impact on poor mental development and school achievement and disorders. Conventional tools are often used to predict this risk. On the other hand, the classification of nutritional disorders using the Composite Index of Anthropometric Failure (CIAF) can predict this risk better. The CIAF method is an anthropometric index that combines the three indices of weight/age, height/age, and weight/height to determine the nutritional status of toddlers. Based on Riskesdas data in 2018, the prevalence of stunting under five in Indonesia reaches 30.8% or around 7 million children under five suffer from stunting. This situation is greater than the maximum stunting prevalence limit set by WHO, which is 20%. The prevalence of stunting under five in the Province of the Bangka Belitung Islands is 23.37% where the highest cases occur in West Bangka Regency. However, West Bangka Regency in particular and the Province of the Bangka Belitung Islands in general have not classified malnutrition that occurs based on CIAF. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of undernutrition and the factors that influence it in West Bangka. This study aims to determine the prevalence of undernutrition based on the Composite Index of Anthropometric Failure (CIAF) and the factors that influence it. This research is a descriptive analytic study with a cross sectional design which was conducted for 10 (ten) months in West Bangka Regency. A sample of 155 toddlers was taken by using multistage random sampling technique. The instruments used include a questionnaire about the characteristics, characteristics of parents, and family economy. The measurement tools used to assess nutritional status are in the form of calibrated digital weight and height scales. The results show that 48.4% or almost half of the respondents experience growth and development failure. Most failure to thrive was in the stunting and underweight category (21.3%) and the least was in the wasting only category (1.3%). Type, age of the child, mother's age, mother's education and household income are not variables that affect the nutritional status of children. Further research is needed with a wider scope of variables so that it can be found what are the factors that influence the occurrence of malnutrition

الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على أشرف خلق الله سيدنا محمد 6  وعلى آله الطيبين الطاهرين وأصحابه ومن تبعهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين .

وبعد :

فإن شعراء بني القبطرنة بالإضافة إلى كونهم وزراء في الدولة الأندلسية فإن شعرهم يمثل نموذج الشعر الأندلسي في عصر الطوائف. تضمنت هذه الدراسة وصف القدرة البلاغية العالية في التصوير والإبداع لدى هؤلاء ، وتأثرهم البالغ بالطبيعة والحياة التي كانوا يعيشونها. وقد تبين من خلال الأمثلة الشعرية إنها كانت تصدر عن تجارب حقيقية مروا بها في حياتهم. بالإضافة إلى ذلك تم دراسة الجانب الفني لشعرهم من خلال الاستعارة والتشبيه والكناية ، وتبين إن معظم شعرهم جاء سهلاً واضحاً لا غرابة فيه و لا تعقيد. حقق هؤلاء الشعراء قدرًا ملحوظًا من العمق في المعنى والبراعة في التصوير, فصوروا الخواطر النفسية والتأملات الفكرية بحكمة مما يُعد مجالا للإبداع في الشعر الأندلسي. عالج شعراء بني القبطرنة مختلف الموضوعات والأغراض الشعرية, وإن تميزت بعض الأغراض باهتمام أكثر من غيرها كالمدح والرثاء ، كما إنهم عالجوا طبيعة الحياة السياسية والتغيّرات الاجتماعية في الأندلس. ومن الجدير بالذكر أن شعر هؤلاء لم يتم تناوله في الدراسات الحديثة ولم يحظى كثيرا باهتمام الباحثين على المستوى الاكاديمي.

Authors: Shah Rachit , Zalawadiya Aditi , Patel Hitesh , Patel Bhargav
Published: February 2023

Introduction: An ideal induction agent for general anesthesia should have hemodynamic stability, minimal respiratory
side effect and rapid recovery. Presently etomidate and propofol are popular rapid acting inducing agents. Material
and methods: After obtaining informed written consent from patients this prospective, randomized, double blind
study was conducted in 100 patients of ASA grade 3 and 4 posted for elective surgeries under general anaesthesia. They
were divided into two groups of 50 in each group based on random number as group A and group B. The patients in
Group A given Inj. Propofol and the patients in Group B received Inj. Etomidate. Parameters such as heart rate, systolic
blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure and spo2 were monitored continuously and recorded.
Incidence and degree of pain of myoclonic movements were recorded. Demographic variables such as age Result: ,
gender, weight and ASA grade were comparable no significant difference existed between both the groups.Baseline
mean heart rate, mean systolic blood pressure and mean diastolic blood pressure were comparable in both the Groups.
(P>0.05)Significant (P<0.05) fall in mean systolic blood pressure, mean diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure
was observed immediately after induction, at 2, 5, 10 minutes up to 30 minutes in group A (propofol) compare to group B
(etomidate). After then no significant difference seen in mean systolic pressure, mean diastolic pressure and mean
arterial pressure. Etomidate was found ideal for its hemodynamic stability when compared to Propofol Conclusion:
along with less incidence of pain on injection, the only drawback being high incidence of myoclonus elderly patient
INCIDENCE, INDICATION AND OUTCOME OF EMERGENCY PERIPARTUM HYSTERECTOMIES IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL

Published: February 2023

BACKGROUND: Emergency peripartum hysterectomy is the life-saving procedure to control a life-threatening
haemorrhage performed at the moment or within 24 hrs of delivery (caesarean or vaginal). It is linked to a substantial
percentage of maternal morbidity and mortality.AIM:To estimate the incidence,indication,and outcome of emergency
peripartum hysterectomy over a 1-year period in a tertiary care hospital and the leading cause of the increased no of
hysterectomies in the defined time interval. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is a prospective study done in SMGS
HOSPITAL, JAMMU, a tertiary care hospital. This study included all women who underwent emergency peripartum
hysterectomy over a span of 1 year (August 1,2021,to July 31,2022).Detailed review including previous obstetric history,
details of index pregnancy, an indication of peripartum hysterectomy, outcome, and infant morbidity was taken into
account. RESULTS: During the course of the research, there were 33 women who had undergone peripartum
hysterectomy. The incidence rate was 1.8 cases per 1000 births. The predominant indications were placenta accreta
(69%),Atonic PPH (Postpartum haemorrhage) (18%),and uterine rupture (9%).Emergency peripartum hysterectomies
were more prevalent after caesarean section (73%) than vaginal births (27%).Previous caesarean,multiparity,any past
uterine surgeries, and older age were risk factors. 48% of women needed intensive care postoperatively.The common
maternal complications were bladder injury (intraop) (12%), febrile morbidity (18%), disseminated intravascular
coagulation (DIC) (8%),acute kidney injury (AKI) (9%),and wound infection (10%).There were 2 maternal deaths (6%)
following emergency peripartum hysterectomy. The patient's condition was taken into consideration while deciding
whether a complete or partial hysterectomy would be best.CONCLUSIONS: Abnormal placentation,placenta accreta,
has surpassed uterine atony as the leading cause of emergency hysterectomy during the perinatal period in recent
years. The primary reason for this is the growing popularity of caesarean sections. Peripartum hysterectomies for
diagnosed cases of placenta accreta with antenatal anticipation of the risk factors,a multidisciplinary approach and ICU
backup had better outcomes with less morbidity.An important factor influencing the maternal outcome was the timing of
the decision to perform a peripartum hysterectomy which is neither too early nor too late
A STUDY OF PATTERN OF MENSTRUAL PROBLEMS IN ADOLESCENT GIRLS IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL
Authors: V. Swarajya Lakshmi A. , Sandya Rani M.
Published: February 2023

Introduction: Many adolescent girls with menstrual disturbances never present to their family doctor or gynaecologist
due to embarrassment about discussing menstruation and fear of disease.This may lead to delayed presentation.The
objective of the current study was to evaluate the socio-demographic aspects of adolescent girls having menstrual
problems as well as type of menstrual problems and its management.Materials and Methods:This retrospective study
was carried out at the department of obstetrics and gynaecology of tertiary care teaching hospital from June2022 to
Nov2022. Head Results: Total of 184 adolescent girls visited our hospital with menstrual problems. Amongst them
117(63.5%) belonged to the late adolescent group, 176(96.6%) were residing at urban areas, 93(50.54%) were from
middle socio-economic class and 164(89.13%) were unmarried. Dysmenorrhoea, menstrual irregularities and
amenorrhoea were present in 49(26.63%), 99(53.8%) and 23(12.5%) respectively. Patients were managed either
medical and/or surgical management along with proper counselling. Conclusion: Majority of the adolescent girls in
our study were anaemic.Hence,prevention and management of anaemia along with health education regarding normal
physiology, various menstrual problems and importance of nutrition is necessary. In India attempts and success to
develop adolescent friendly health services in public and private systems have met with partial success. Hence,
counselling and management of menstrual problems in adolescents needs to be provided in existing health and medical
care services.
