Critical Discourse Analysis on Climate Change: Analyzing Hollywood Film "How to Blow Up a Pipeline"
Authors: Zahid Ayesha , Kunwal Farwa , Ali Muhammad
Published: November 2023

To analyze Climate Change (CC) in films, this study uses Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to examine the film "How to Blow Up a Pipeline". It is based on the book "How to Blow Up a Pipeline: Learning to Fight in a World on Fire" by Andreas Malm, suggesting violent approaches to address CC. Based on Van Dijk’s concept of CDA, the study examines the use of vocabulary and pragmatic contexts by focusing on lexical choices, rhetorical devices, syntax, intertextuality, the identities and goals of the filmmakers, the intended audience, and the socio-cultural and historical contexts that influence audience understanding. The analysis is conducted across the film's three acts. Findings reveal the portrayal of violence as a means to draw attention to the urgency of CC. Filmmakers do not explicitly endorse such actions but the film intends to spark conversation on the violent actions.
Use of Emojis and Stickers for Online Interaction Facilitation: A Gender-Based Semiotic Discourse Analysis
Authors: Sadia Hina , Hussain Muhammad Sabboor
Published: November 2023

Modern technology has revolutionized our methods of communication. Emojis and stickers are the newest advancements that transcend linguistic barriers and act as a universal language. This research paper applies a social semiotic framework to investigate the functions of emojis and stickers in digital discourse. Utilizing a mixed method approach, data has been collected through a web-based questionnaire from 137 participants and semi-structured interviews taken from 10 selected participants. The study aims to explore the central role of emojis and stickers in promoting positive online interaction and identify how their usage facilitates both genders while potentially differing interpretations. The findings suggest that emojis and stickers aid in expressing emotions, clarifying messages, and improving mood during conversations. Furthermore, the study reveals that users utilize emoticons strategically and functionally for various purposes beyond emotional expression. The study concludes that emojis and stickers serve as a global language and are vital in managing interrelations and message comprehension in online communication.

Published: November 2023

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of reconstruction and orbital volume on the reduction of proptosis in patients undergoing resection for spheno-orbital meningiomas. Additionally, potential predictors of optimal proptosis reduction after surgery were evaluated.

METHODS

Patients with spheno-orbital meningiomas who underwent resection at the authors’ institution between 2005 and 2020 were evaluated retrospectively. The exophthalmos index (EI) was measured on pre- and postoperative imaging to quantify proptosis and calculate the primary outcome measure of proptosis reduction. Patients were excluded if they had no preoperative proptosis (i.e., EI < 1.1), prior resection, or insufficient imaging available for analysis. Clinical and surgical characteristics were collected, including sex, extent of resection, WHO grade, and rigid orbital reconstruction, and assessed as predictors of greater proptosis reduction. Additionally, orbital volumes of the affected and contralateral orbits were measured to correlate postoperative orbital volumes with proptosis reduction.

RESULTS

Thirty-three patients, with a mean age of 53 years, met inclusion criteria. The majority of the patients were female (23, 69.7%), and most tumors were classified as WHO grade 1 (29, 87.9%). Six patients (18.2%) underwent rigid orbital reconstruction. The mean EI across all patients decreased from 1.36 ± 0.18 to 1.19 ± 0.15 (p < 0.001). Patients who underwent reconstruction had on average a 76.4% greater reduction in the EI (p = 0.036) and a 9.1 times higher odds of achieving a normal EI (< 1.1) compared with those who did not receive reconstruction (OR 9.1, p = 0.025). Additionally, patients without residual hyperostotic bone compressing the orbit had a 2.16 times greater reduction in EI (p = 0.039). A linear relationship between orbital volume ratios (affected/unaffected orbit) and proptosis reduction was observed (p = 0.029, r = 0.529), including at ratios > 1.0. This suggests that greater orbital volumes postoperatively correlated with greater reductions in proptosis.

CONCLUSIONS

Three factors were identified that optimize proptosis correction. First, all abnormal bone compressing the orbital contents must be removed completely. Second, rigid orbital reconstruction leads to improved proptosis correction, possibly by preventing frontal lobe and dural reconstruction from descending onto the compressed orbit. Third, aiming for an orbital volume slightly larger than the contralateral normal side leads to improved proptosis correction.

Published: November 2023

OBJECTIVE

The authors designed a low-profile device for reliable ventricular access and prospectively studied its safety, efficacy, and accuracy at a large academic center.

METHODS

A novel device for ventricular entry, the Device for Intraventricular Entry (DIVE) guide, was designed and created by the first and senior authors. Fifty patients undergoing external ventricular drainage (EVD) or shunt placement were prospectively enrolled for DIVE-assisted catheter placement at a single academic center. The primary outcome was the catheter tip location on postprocedural CT. Secondary outcomes included number of catheter passes, clinically significant hemorrhages, and procedure-related infections.

RESULTS

Fifty patients were enrolled. Indications included subarachnoid hemorrhage, intraventricular hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, hydrocephalus, pseudotumor, and postsurgical wound drainage. In total, 76% (38/50) of patients underwent right-sided placement and 24% (12/50) underwent left-sided placement. All 100% (50/50) of patients had successful cannulation with an average of 1.06 passes. Postprocedural head CT confirmed ipsilateral frontal horn or third ventricle placement (Kakarla grade 1) in 92% (46/50) of patients and placement in the contralateral lateral ventricle in 8% (4/50) (Kakarla grade 2). There were no clinically significant track hemorrhages or procedural infections.

CONCLUSIONS

This single-center prospective study investigated the safety and efficacy of DIVE-assisted ventricular access. In total, 100% of procedures had successful ventricular cannulation, with 92% achieving Kakarla grade 1, with an average of 1.06 passes without any clinical complications.

Published: November 2023

OBJECTIVE

Recently, the transradial (TR) approach has become a common alternative because of its safety profile and increased patient satisfaction compared with the transfemoral (TF) route. Both routes are associated with their respective associated costs, and differences typically emerge on the basis of patient anatomy, operator expertise, and occurrence of complications. The authors’ objective was to compare the overall costs of diagnostic cerebral angiography via both routes and to shed light on the individual equipment costs of each route.

METHODS

This retrospective single-center study of 926 elective diagnostic angiograms was performed between December 2019 and March 2022.

RESULTS

The study comprised of 314 and 612 angiograms performed through the TF and TR routes, respectively. A significantly greater proportion of female patients were included in the TF cohort (79.3% vs 67.8%, p < 0.001), and most other demographic characteristics and baseline modified Rankin Scale scores were comparable between cohorts. The overall cost of patients utilizing the TR route was comparable to that of the TF route (mean ± SD $12,591.80 ± $19,128.00 vs $12,789.50 ± 18,424.00, p = 0.88). However, the median cost of catheters was significantly higher in TR group ($55.20 vs $12.40, p = 0.03), while the median costs of closure devices ($87.00 vs $20.20 p < 0.001) and sheaths ($44.60 ± 11.3 vs $41.10 ± 3.10, p < 0.001) were significantly higher in the TF group.

CONCLUSIONS

Overall, the authors’ study showed that the TR approach can be a less expensive option for patients undergoing diagnostic cerebral angiography, especially if complications occur. Future studies may corroborate these findings and potentially lead to the adoption of TR as a low-cost, efficient, gold-standard technique for cerebral angiography.

OBJECTIVE

Postoperative C5 palsy (C5P) is a known complication in cervical spine surgery. However, its exact pathophysiology is unclear. The authors aimed to provide a review of the current understanding of C5P by performing a comprehensive, systematic review of the existing literature and conducting a critical appraisal of existing evidence to determine the risk factors of C5P.

METHODS

A systematic search of PubMed/MEDLINE (January 1, 2019, to July 2, 2021), EMBASE (inception to July 2, 2021), and Cochrane (inception to July 2, 2021) databases was conducted. Preestablished criteria were used to evaluate studies for inclusion. Studies that adjusted for one or more of the following factors were considered: preoperative foraminal diameter (FD) at C4/5, posterior spinal cord shift at C4/5, preoperative anterior-posterior diameter (APD) at C4/5, preoperative spinal cord rotation, and change in C2–7 Cobb angle. Studies were rated as good, fair, or poor based on the Quality in Prognosis Studies (QUIPS) tool. Random effects meta-analyses were done using methods outlined by Cochrane methodologists for pooling of prognostic studies. Overall quality (strength) of evidence was based on Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) methods for prognostic studies. The protocol for this review was published on the PROSPERO (CRD264358) website.

RESULTS

Of 303 potentially relevant citations of studies, 12 met the inclusion criteria set a priori. These works provide moderate-quality evidence that preoperative FD substantially increases the odds of C5P in patients undergoing posterior cervical surgery. Pooled estimates across 7 studies in which various surgical approaches were used indicate that the odds of C5P approximately triple for each millimeter decrease in preoperative FD (OR 3.05, 95% CI 2.07–4.49). Preoperative APD increases the odds of C5P, but the confidence is low. Across 3 studies, each using different surgical approaches, each millimeter decrease in preoperative APD was associated with a more than 2-fold increased odds of C5P (pooled OR 2.51, 95% CI 1.69–3.73). Confidence that there is an association with postoperative C5P and posterior spinal cord shift, change in sagittal Cobb angle, and preoperative spinal cord rotation is very low.

CONCLUSIONS

The exact pathophysiological process resulting in postoperative C5P remains an enigma but there is a clear association with foraminal stenosis, especially when performing posterior procedures. C5P is also related to decreased APD but the association is less clear. The overall quality (strength) of evidence provided by the current literature is low to very low for most factors.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this study was to evaluate the 24-month durability of pain relief, function, quality of life, and safety outcomes for patients with nonsurgical refractory back pain (NSRBP) treated with high-frequency spinal cord stimulation (SCS) within a large, national, multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT).

METHODS

Following the completion of an RCT comparing high-frequency SCS plus CMM with CMM alone for the treatment of NSRBP, patients gave additional consent for a follow-up extension to 24 months. Presented is the cohort analysis of all patients treated with high-frequency SCS following the optional crossover at 6 months. The outcomes assessed to 24 months included responder rate of ≥ 50% pain relief measured according to the visual analog scale [VAS]), disability (Oswestry Disability Index [ODI]), quality of life (EQ-5D 5-level [EQ-5D-5L]), opioid reduction.

RESULTS

Of the 125 patients who received a permanent implant, 121 completed the 12-month follow-up, 101 gave additional consent for extended follow-up, and 98 completed the 24-month follow-up. At 24 months after implantation, the mean back pain VAS score was reduced by 73% and the responder rate was 82%. ODI and EQ-5D-5L both improved by at least double the minimal clinically important difference for each measure. No unexpected adverse events were observed, and the rates of serious adverse events (3.4%) and device explantations (4.8%) were low.

CONCLUSIONS

The addition of high-frequency SCS to CMM in patients with NSRBP offers profound improvements at 24 months in pain, function, quality of life, and reduced opioid use. This study provides much-needed evidence to inform current clinical practice for managing patients with NSRBP.
