University Aspirational Pathways for Metropolitan and Regional Students
Authors: Vernon Lynette Anne , Watson Stuart , Taggart Andrew
Published: December 2022

Young people in low socioeconomic (SES) regions, including regional and rural areas of Australia, aspire to attend university after high school at a comparable rate to young people in higher SES regions. However, without concrete opportunities to support and develop their aspirations, students in regional areas are unable to internalize the goals of a university education. Therefore, university participation rates are lower for regional than metropolitan students. This study examines the roles of aspiration and expectation to attend university for regional and metropolitan high school students living in a low-SES region of Western Australia, where a four-year university aspiration project was implemented. Specifically, the directionality of the development of university desire and expectation is tested using data collected over 18 months within a cross-lagged modeling framework. Differences within the region are explored using multiple group analysis, comparing the model of a regional sample with the model of propensity-score matched metropolitan sample. The results demonstrate that for metropolitan students within the region, higher early university desire feeds higher university expectations, which, in turn, crystalise subsequent university desires. For regional students, however, the cross-lagged effects were not demonstrated, suggesting other neighbourhood factors, beyond familiarity with university pathways, remain for when low-SES students live further from a major city. These findings suggest that within the same low-SES region, there is variation in how the culture and neighborhood factors interact to determine the efficacy of university participation widening programs. Addressing logistic factors that restrict access to university may further reduce the participation gap.
Education and Equity in Rural China: A critical introduction for the rural education field.
Authors: Roberts Philip , Hannum Emily
Published: December 2022

The aim of this paper is to introduce issues pertinent to rural education in China to the rural education field and encourage the field to engage with scholarship on this topic. While there is a significant international body of work on the educational concerns of rural China in the comparative education literature, there is no such attention in the rural education field (outside of China, of course).  A search of the two main international rural education academic journals, the Australian-based â€˜Australian and International Journal of Rural Educationâ€™ (including its predecessor Education in Rural Australia), and the USA-based â€˜Journal of Research in Rural Educationâ€™ show no articles dealing with rural education in China. A search of the EBSCO database confirms this lack of attention. Yet, the field of rural education (å†œæ‘æ•™è‚², Nongcun Jiaoyu) in China is well-established and very active.
The Post-Schooling Transitions of Remote Indigenous Secondary School Graduates: A Systematic Scoping Review of Support Strategies
Authors: Rutherford Katrina , McCalman Janya , Bainbridge Roxanne
Published: December 2022

School completion has been hailed by many as the â€˜holy grailâ€™ of Indigenous education, and 42% remote-living Indigenous students now attain year 12 completion each year. But for a range of complex reasons, only 60% of these graduates translate this achievement into further engagement in study, training or employment. This systematic literature review examined the evidence for strategies that support the post-schooling transitions of these students. Adhering to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework, it examinedthe scope and quality of the existing evidence and appliedqualitative meta-synthesis to elucidate the conditions that enable or hinder, and strategies that support post-schooling transitions. Findings suggested that lower rates of post-schooling study or employment uptake are influenced by: historical misalignment of education approaches with community values and aspirations; limited opportunities in remote communities; and other socio-economic factors. Strategies were found to bemost effective when cross-sectoral education/employment and community partnerships were formed, and remote communities were integralin the planning and implementation process. Strategies to improve transitions included: embedding Indigenous and Western knowledge systems in education, task-based learning, explicitly addressing studentsâ€™ language needs, providing immersion experiences such as in universities, and mentoring programs to widen studentsâ€™ aspirations. However, the evidence-base remains weak and further research is needed to understand the impact of strategies on studentsâ€™ aspirations and their immediate and long-term post-schooling transitions.

Education and change in rural areas in the 1990s: Chicken Little was not wrong
Authors: Mason Robb , Randell Shirley
Published: December 2022

The economic and social conditions of rural Victoria are changing. The concepts and practices that have supported the work of the Country Education Project (CEP) in rural Victoria have to change accordingly. The paper looks at the changes impacting upon rural Australia and examines in particular the subject of disadvantage. Disadvantage is a concept that in practice is drawn from a period of stability and relative affluence. Present circumstances may well require a different interpretation, one more in accord with lifelong educational principles. The policy development of the CEP is then analysed and challenges and issues for that organisation outlined.
Accessible Stories within Mediascapes
Authors: Greco Gian Maria , Rizzo Alessandra , Spinzi Cinzia
Published: December 2022

This article presents the first steps in the investigation of the potential for digital storytelling and digital museums to be used as instruments for access, as enablers of epistemic and poietic agency. Digital storytelling and migration museums are used as a case study to explore in what ways digital storytelling impacts meaning-making processes performed by migrants, allowing them to become active creators and disseminators of their own experiences. Through the combination of corpus linguistics, systemic functional linguistics, and lexical semantic analysis, an ad-hoc comparable corpus of migrant narratives in English and in Italian was cross-examined in order to scrutinise the conceptual categories activated in these stories. The mixed-methods analysis led to the identification of the most common lexico-semantic features forming the knowledge frames of the experiential world of migrants. Results show that each national narrative makes use of its own grammar and lexico-semantic domains, a set of semantic and syntactic patterns associated with the production of stories of migration within the context of transmedia textual subtypes. These domains are strategic, as they give access to marginalised stories within digital museum settings.
Lay summary
Adopting the perspective of accessibility studies, digital storytelling is interpreted as a series of instruments for access, as an enabler of epistemic and poietic agency. That is, digital storytelling empowers people to express their voice and become active creators and disseminators of their own experiences.
In order to investigate the potential of digital storytelling as a tool for access, we created a comparable corpus made of migrant narratives in English and in Italian spread across museum platforms. Then we  cross-examined the corpus through a combination of quantitative and qualitative methodologies in order to examine the conceptual categories activated in these stories. More specifically, we analysed and identified which linguistic strategies have been employed by the storytellers to inform the audience, what knowledge frames have been adopted to tell their experiences and expectations, and what similarities or differences exist among stories told by migrants who have settled down in different parts of the world.
Showing that each national narrative makes use of its own semantic and syntactic patterns, our results support the idea of digital storytelling as an access enabler and digital museums as novel environments which jointly empower people with the tools and conditions to take a proactive role.

Cahiliye Arapları bir portreyi, olay ya da nesneyi başarılı bir şekilde lafız ve anlama sığdırmada üstün bir merhaleye ulaşmışlardı. Öyle ki Cahiliye dönemi şairi, uzun pasajlarla anlatılacak ya da tasvir edilecek herhangi bir temayı anlamı yoğun, lafzı öz birkaç beyitle ifade edebilmekteydi. Ancak Arapların sahip oldukları ve çoğu yerde gurur vesilesi olarak gördükleri beyan ve belagat tasavvurları, Kur’an’ın nüzulüyle beraber vahiy dilinin mu‘cîz/erişilmez üslubu sayesinde farklı bir aşamaya evrilir. Farklı ölçeklerdeki meydan okumalara rağmen erişilmez olan kelâm-ı ilâhî’ye karşı koyan ya da benzerini getirmeye çalışan kimse çıkmaz. Arapları derinden etkileyen ve belagat yetilerini yeniden şekillendiren bu i‘câz olgusu hakkında I./VII. asırda doğrudan bir çalışma yapılmaz. Ancak cem ve tedvin çalışmalarının ağırlık kazandığı süreçte ilimlerin teşekkül etmesi, beraberinde “Kur’an’ı mu‘ciz kılan husus ne olmuştur?” sorusunu gündeme getirir. Bu soru kaçınılmaz bir şekilde Kur’an’ın geldiği dönemin Araplarının beyan ve belagat seviyelerini incelemeye tabi tutan bir dizi çalışmayı tetikler. Zira Kur’an’ın i‘câzı, dönemin Arapçasının üstünlüğünü pekiştiren en önemli hadisedir. Söz konusu üstünlüğün saptanabilmesi ise tabii olarak ilgili dönemin edebî ürünlerinin tetkikini gerektirir. Bu farkındalıktan hareketle erken dönemden itibaren bir yandan Kur’an’ın hususi özelliklerini irdelemeyi esas alan tefsir ve i‘câz çalışmaları, diğer yandan ise Cahiliye dönemi şiirlerinin karakteristik özelliklerini belirlemeye ve anlamaya çalışan şiir eleştirisi eserleri telif edilir. Câhiz’in (öl. 255/869) belagat ve şiire dair konulara yer verdiği el-Beyân ve’t-tebyîn’i, Abdülkâhir el-Cürcânî’nin (öl. 471/1078-79) şiir eleştirisi ile i‘câzı tam anlamıyla iç içe işlediği Delâ’ilü’l-i‘câz’ı ve şiir eleştirisi meselelerini belagate konu olan kavramlarla ele aldığı Esrârü’l-belâga’sı bu tür eserlere örnek verilebilir.
Mezhepler Arası Mukayeseli Olarak İslam Hukukunda Mehir
Authors: AKSOY Muhammed Mehdi
Published: December 2022

İslam Hukukuna göre sahih nikâh akdi neticesinde taraflar açısından birtakım hak ve yükümlülükler meydana gelmektedir. Bunlardan biri, kadının elde ettiği, buna bağlı olarak da erkeğin karşılamakla yükümlü olduğu mehirdir. Kitap, Sünnet ve icmâ ile sabit olan mehir, İslam hukukçuları tarafından delillere dayalı bakış açıları çerçevesinde özellikle hüküm ve mahiyet itibariyle farklı şekillerde değerlendirilmiştir. Hüküm cihetiyle bazı fakihler mehri nikâh akdinin rüknü, bazıları nikâh akdi neticesinde kendiliğinden meydana gelen bir hak olarak kabul etmişlerdir. Mahiyet yönüyle ise bazı hukukçular mehri nikâh akdinin bedeli, bazıları kadın için takdir edilmiş bir armağan olarak addetmişlerdir. Çalışmada, karşılaştırmalı bir biçimde İslam hukukçularının mehir hakkındaki görüşlerinin ele alınması amaçlanmıştır. Bu bağlamda daha çok klasik eserlerden yararlanılarak dört mezhebin mehre dair görüşleri tespit edilmiş ve yer yer delillerine temas edilmek suretiyle başlıklar halinde sunulmuştur. Mehir ile ilgili konuları bütüncül şekilde mukayeseli olarak içermesi hasebiyle çalışmanın alana önemli bir katkı sunacağı düşünülmektedir.
Accessibility and Health Facility Factors Influencing Maternal and Fetal Outcomes among Mothers Referred with Obstetric Emergencies in Baringo County Referral Hospital, Kabarnet, Kenya
Authors: Kandie Phylis
Published: December 2022

Purpose: To determine the accessibility to a health facility and health facility factors influencing maternal and fetal outcomes among mothers referred with obstetric emergencies in Baringo County referral Hospital.

Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study which employed a mixed method approach of data collection was adopted. Simple Random technique was used in selecting 284 respondents into the study. The study population also included nurses, gynaecologist and medical officers who were purposively sampled. Qualitative data collection was analysed through content analysis while descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analysed quantitative data. 

Findings: results show that mothers who are accompanied by nurse are 4.3 times more likely to have complications than those accompanied by relatives (AOR:4.3;95% CI:1.2-16.1;p=0.03). Moreover, mothers who were coming from distant health facilities were 70% less likely to have experience complications than those who live closer to the referral hospital (AOR: 0.3; 95%CI: 0.1-1.1; p=0.07). Neonates whose mothers received treatment within 30 min (OR: 0.5; 95% CI: 0.3 – 0.8; p = 0.005) were 50% less likely to have had abnormal outcome. In contrast, the risk of abnormal outcome was higher for neonates whose mothers received treatment before referral (OR: 2.3; 95% CI: 1.4 – 3.8; p = 0. 001) suggesting possible delay in providing treatment as a possible cause of deteriorating condition of the foetus. Mothers who stated that nurses listened and explained things (3.9%) or those seen within less than 30 minutes to be attended to (p = 0.3) experienced complications. On the other hand, the odds of complications increased where the main reason for referral was lack of expertise and equipments at the referring health facility (p = 0.09) though the result was not statistically significant.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: This study has identified accessibility and health facility factors influencing the obstetric emergencies in a marginalized county. The study will provide insight to policy maker’s hence evident-based interventions will be made. No literature review has been published on this topic at the study site therefore, this study will form a basis for other researchers.

Interpreting living urban-industrial heritage: The Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham
Authors: Rifaioğlu Mert Nezih
Published: December 2022

In light of the studies related to the theory of interpretation of cultural heritage sites, the holistic interpretation approach of heritage areas has developed, and a new interpretation culture has emerged. It includes new approaches, local and regional interpretation strategies, new policies and comprehensive analysis and evaluations. The new interpretation culture is important not only to produce interpretation themes, but also to the transfer and sustainability of the values of heritage sites that need to be preserved to the society. In this context, studies are being brought up in order to find the most appropriate ways to understand and transfer living urban heritage sites; tangible and intangible values, existing or non-existent urban structures, ongoing or non-existent social and cultural practices, used or ongoing structures and all cultural and historical layers of areas.  Beyond the current interpretation studies carried out for the heritage sites, it is important to develop interpretation strategies including the historical importance of the areas for living urban heritage sites and therefore complex cultural heritage areas, the connections to the places, cultural and social relations networks, urban memory, and the spirit of the place. For this purpose, the study focuses primarily on the critical viewpoint of theoretical content of the interpretation of cultural heritage sites. In the light of theoretical and practical knowledge, the research then concentrates on key themes and discussions on heritage interpretation in the UK. Accordingly, the research discusses the interpretation strategies in the Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham which is the one of the most influential areas by means of historical urban-industrial heritage site.

Published: December 2022

Objetivos: Describir las características epidemiológicas de alteraciones cromosómicas y malformaciones congénitas en Cochabamba.
Métodos: Se incluyeron 166 pacientes con sospecha de alteración cromosómica, de hospitales de Cochabamba. Se realizó individualmente la anamnesis, exploración física, y prueba de cariotipo en muestra de sangre periférica.
Resultados: De los 166 pacientes, 79 (48 %) tenían cariotipo sin alteración, y 87 (52 %) tenían alguna anomalía cromosómica. La alteración más frecuente fue Síndrome de Down (34 %), siguiendo Síndrome de Turner (11 %), Síndrome de Edwards (2 %), trisomía 22 (1 %), Klinefelter (1 %), Deleciones (2 %) o cromosoma marcador 5 (1 %). La distribución de pacientes entre 0 y 1 año con dismorfia congénita fue: 10% de recién nacidos hasta 7 días, 20 % neonatos entre 8 y 28 días, y 70 % de lactantes menores y mayores desde 28 días a un año. Dentro este grupo confirmamos alteración cromosómica en 43 pacientes (62 %) y en 26 (38%) cariotipo sin alteración. La edad promedio de los padres de niños con Sd. de Down, fue mayor a 40 años y para los otros síndromes fue menor a 30 años.
Conclusiones: Las cromosomopatías más frecuentes fueron el Sd. de Down, Sd. de Turner y Sd. de Edwards. La mayor parte de los cariotipos fueron con alteración completa o libre en los diferentes Síndromes. La edad de la madre y del padre y el número de abortos parecen ser un factor de riesgo para el Síndrome de Down, y para el Síndrome de Turner.

Authors: YENİ Mustafa
Published: December 2022

Bilindiği gibi Birinci Dünya Savaşı, beraberinde topyekûn harp kavramı da getirmiştir. Topyekûn harp ile birlikte, muharip devletler yalnızca askeri kaynakların başarılı olmaya yetmediğini anlayınca sivillerin desteğine de ihtiyaç duymuşlardır. Devletler, sivillerin ellerindeki kaynaklara ve bizzat sivillerin kendisine ulaşmak için de onların düşüncelerini ve dolayısıyla davranışlarını değiştirecek girişimlerde bulunmuşlardır. Bundan dolayı sivillerin nezdinde etkili olacak “propaganda” faaliyetlerine başlanmıştır. Muharip devletler, sadece kendi vatandaşlarına değil, düşmanlarının veya tarafsız ülkelerin halklarına karşı da propaganda faaliyetleri yürütmüşlerdir. Dünyada yaşanan bu değişimden Osmanlı Devleti de tabii olarak etkilenmiştir. İşte bu çalışmada Osmanlı Devleti’nin propaganda anlayışları ve profesyonel propaganda çağındaki faaliyetleri incelenecek, bu faaliyetler için oluşturulan kurumlar mercek altına alınacaktır. Ayrıca çalışmada, Osmanlı Devleti’nin özellikle tarafsız Avrupa ülkelerindeki propaganda faaliyetleri ele alınacaktır. Bunun yanında, düşman ülkelerin topraklarında yapılmak istenilen propagandalar hakkında bilgi verilecek ve bu faaliyetler esnasında ortaya çıkan sorunlar açıklanacaktır. Yine propaganda faaliyetleri kapsamında, Osmanlı Devleti’nin savaştaki müttefikleriyle olan ilişkileri de incelenecektir. Böylece Osmanlı Devleti’nin son derece etkisiz olduğu düşünülen coğrafyalardaki propaganda faaliyetlerinin özü anlaşılmaya çalışılacaktır.
Effect of Acupressure on Labour Pain during First Stage of Labour among Primi Mothers in a Selected Hospital of Delhi
Authors: Sebastian Martina K
Published: December 2022

The study aimed to assess the degree of pain during labour in experimental and control groups before and after intervention and to compare the pain score during labour between the experimental and control groups after intervention. This experimental pre-test and post-test control group study was conducted on 60 primi mothers (30 each in experimental and control group) in Swami Dayanand Hospital, Delhi. The mean post-test pain score of control group (8.23) was higher than mean pre-test pain score (7.13) with a mean difference of 1.1 and standard deviation of 2.22. The obtained t-value (3.98) was higher than the t-value of 2.04 at df (29) at 0.05 level of significance. The mean post-test pain score in experimental group was 6.17 and mean post-test pain score of control group was 8.23 with a mean difference of 2.06 and standard deviation of 1.10. The t-value computed at 2.41 was more than the t-value of 2.00 at df (58) at 0.05 level of significance. The results indicate that Acupressure at point Li4 was effective in reducing the pain in experimental group. The findings suggest that the non-pharmacological method of pain relief measure like acupressure at point Li4 was effective in reducing labour pain in experimental group and in the control group it was found that pain was increasing as no intervention was done.
Forest Fire Disaster Risk Analysis using Sentinel 2 and Landsat Images Case Study: Al-Qoubaiyat and Tyre regions, Lebanon
Authors: ISSA Mohamed , ABBOUD Mohammad
Published: December 2022

Fires are considered a threat to the world with all its components and sectors. Recently, it is noticeable an increase in these fires that hit many countries, especially in Lebanon which is considered a country, rich in forests. A forest fire can be naturally caused by either global warming or high temperature. On the other hand, it may be caused by man-made via factories and glass waste. Fires cause great damage to the environment and may lead to human death. Unfortunately, the fire that broke out in AL-Qoubaiyat and Tyre in Lebanon, have been witnessed and caused great damage to the environment, human losses, etc. In this study, a study of fire risk management for those two study areas, will be analyzed using two types of data (Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2) for AL-Qoubaiyat case study, whereas it will be between (Landsat-7 and Sentinel-2) for the Tyre case study. The Analysis will be done by using the Normalized Burn Ration (NBR), Differenced Normalized Burn Ration (NBR) along with all type of required atmospheric corrections. According to our study, it was found advisable to monitor fire risk management using Sentinel-2 L2A data since the atmospheric correction is already performed on it but for L1C data the Sen2Cor python must be used to apply atmospheric correction. Furthermore, the Sentinel-2 L2A data analysis gave more precise results than Landsat-8 by about 2% in Sour case study and 5.7 % in AL-Qoubaiyat case study. Hoping that this method will help in tracking fires, disaster risk reduction, and help in classifying burn severity accompanied with calculating the area corresponding to each class.

Published: December 2022

The taxonomy and distribution of dragonflies of the genus Heliogomphus from the Western Ghats of southern India are discussed. A morphological study of fresh male specimens from the field, as well as holotypes and lectotypes from repositories was undertaken. Contradictiing statements in scientific literature, we found that the markings on the occiput and thorax are not dependable features in distinguishing sympatric Heliogomphus promelas (Selys, 1873) and H. kalarensis Fraser, 1934. The structure of the epiprocts and the male genitalia were key features for differentiating them. Heliogomphus pruinans, Fraser, 1922 is removed from the synonymy of H. promelas and is synonymized with H. kalarensis instead based on the analysis of the structure of its epiproct. In accordance with the provisions of ICZN Article 23.9.1.2, in suppression of the unused senior synonym, the taxon name H. kalarensis is retained as a nomen protectum. Heliogomphus unifasciatus is treated as nomen nudum. Taxonomic notes and updated distribution summaries of the two species from the Western Ghats with an identification key to the males are provided. Heliogomphus kalarensis is redescribed from fresh field-collected specimens, including details of the male genitalia and anal appendages. Fieldwork in the Western Ghats revealed that H. kalarensis is the most common of the two Heliogomphus species in Kerala state. The published records of H. promelas and H. kalarensis from this region need to be revisited in light of the facts presented here.

Arterial hypertension and chronic kidney disease are mutually interconnected. Uncontrolled arterial hypertension along with diabetes is one of the two most common causes of end-stage chronic kidney disease. On the other hand, chronic kidney disease, as well as renal artery stenosis, results in the development of arterial hypertension. Hypertensive crisis with target-organ damage, also known as a hypertensive emergency, is a serious arterial hypertension complication which is however becoming less frequent. It requires urgent parenteral antihypertensive treatment adjusted to the values of arterial hypertension and accompanying clinical signs. Damage can manifest on numerous organ systems primarily eyes, brain, cardiovascular system, and the kidneys. This is a case report of a patient who presented with hypertensive crisis and kidney damage and was eventually diagnosed with abdominal aortic dissection expanding into the renal arteries, but without typical clinical presentation of stabbing pain. MSCT aortography, despite the risk of progression of renal damage due to the effect of contrast agent, allowed us to set definitive diagnosis and clarify the aetiology of kidney damage and resistant arterial hypertension.

Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion is an endocrinological disorder which occurs when there is an evidence of continued antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion in the absence of an appropriate osmotic volume stimulus. Most commonly it is caused by different types of cancer or medications (eg. diuretics, antidepressants, antipsychotics...). Secondary adrenal insufficiency is caused by the insufficient adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion and cortisol production. In the hypocortisolism, the inhibitory mechanism on ADH secretion vanishes causing increased ADH secretion and leading to SIADH-like state. Both conditions, SIADH and hypocortisolism, manifest in euvolemic hyponatremia, however, its cause can be misdiagnosed and result in an inadequate treatment and potentially fatal outcome. Our case is about fifty-seven-year-old male patient who was treated with chemoradiotherapy for hematological malignancy of the oropharynx and who presented with severe hyponatremia se-veral times that almost ended fatally. Considering his malignant disease, patient was diagnosed with SIADH as a cause of hypona-tremia and was treated with hypertonic saline fluids and fluid intake restriction. However, after having suffered Covid-19 infection the patient was given glucocorticoids according to the protocol at the time. The sodium levels finally corrected, and the secondary adrenal insufficiency has been declared as the real cause of hyponatremia. SIADH is often thought to be the cause of hyponatremia in patients with malignant disease. However, SIADH represents a diagnosis of exclusion. Before making a final diagnosis, thyroid and secondary adrenal insufficiency must be ruled out. Moreover, secondary adrenal insufficiency imitates SIADH and results in euvolemic hyponatremia but the management and potential outcomes of these two conditions differ significantly. In patients who have been previously treated for malignancies with the treatment options that increase the risk of adrenal insufficiency (chemotherapy, neck or skull base radiotherapy, immunotherapy), adrenal reserve must be evaluated. If introduced, the glucocorticoid therapy should be carefully deescalated in these patients because of the risk of previously unrecognized adrenal insufficiency. This especially applies to conditions that include glucocorticoid therapy in the treatment protocol, such as Covid-19 infection.

OZONIOTHERAPY
Authors: Carolina Alcântara de Oliveira Érika , Rech Feldmann Cristina
Published: December 2022

In recent years there has been a significant increase in the demand for aesthetic procedures aimed at Orofacial Harmonization, attracting both men and women. An integral component of facial rejuvenation is the restoration of an aesthetic neck contour. To treat this, the localized fat accumulation is removed through the aesthetic procedure of liposuction surgery, leading to an improvement in the facial contour. Fat removal is done using cannulas. Small incisions are made in the skin, where the cannulas will be introduced and will aspirate the localized fats through negative pressure. Liposuction, as with any surgical procedure, can have complications. Fibrosis is one of the main ones, being a direct consequence of post-injury repair. A complementary therapeutic procedure integrated with surgical practices and bringing several benefits is ozone therapy, a technique that uses ozone gas as a therapeutic agent. Due to the fact that ozone has been correlated with numerous benefits for the treatment of conditions, the present work aims to correlate the clinical experience of its application in the submental region, to improve the condition of fibrosis intercurrence in patients who underwent lipoplasty surgery. There was a significant improvement in the patient’s fibrosis, however, further studies are still needed on the subject, in order to allow well-defined and safe parameters of use.

Objective: To highlight association of coronary artery disease on angiograms and high altitude-related ECG abnormalities that is thought to be ischemic in origin.

Place and Duration of Study: This was a cross sectional study done in Armed Force Institute of Cardiology/National Institute of Heart Disease from Oct 2016 to Oct 2021.

Methodology: This was a cross sectional study done in AFIC/NIHD from Oct 2016–Oct 2021 (5years). A total of 103 patients at a range of 9000 to 22000 feet in altitude, with new ECG changes were selected via consecutive sampling. Data was analyzed by SPSS version-23. Descriptive statistics were run to present categorical data in frequencies and percentages. Chi-square and Fisher Exact Test was applied to find the association between study variables at 95% CI and 5% margin of error (α= 5%).

Results: The data was collected from a total of 103 respondents, mean age (years) of the respondents was 30.57±6.27, and mean duration of stay (days) at high altitude was 64.8±68.3 (Table-I). ECG changes that were recorded were: T-wave inversion in anterior leads (V1, V2, V3) were reported in n=33(32%), T- wave inversion in Inferior leads (II, III, aVF) in 21(20.3%), T-wave inversion in lateral leads (V3-V6) 10(9.7%). Normal Ejection fraction was observed in 97% of the study participants while only 3% had mild left ventricular systolic impairment. Angiographic findings were found to be normal in n=92 (89.30%), minor coronary artery disease (CAD) in n=9 (8.70%), muscle bridge in LAD in n=2 (1.90%). Our results also showed that amongst other final diagnosis, of note were vasovagal syncope (n=5; 4.8%), pulmonary embolism (n=5; 4.8%) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (n=3; 2.9%).

Conclusion: Our work leads us to the conclusion that ECG abnormalities at high altitude do not indicate coronary artery disease since they do not reflect a delay in electrical conduction or ischemia. These patients should be treated separately based on their high altitude disease symptoms (HAI).
A Case of Extensive Myocardial Calcification
Authors: Yusuf Rizwan , Balqees Nayab , Hussain Sajjad
Published: December 2022

Aortic valve and mitral annular calcification are commonly seen in elderly patients with chronic kidney disease and/ or altered calcium hemostasis. Extensive myocardial calcification is rare. We present a case of an elderly female who presented with sepsis and heart failure on a clinical background of chronic kidney disease and showed extensive myocardial calcification on multi-modality imaging, leading to severe impairment in systolic and diastolic function with restrictive physiology.

Conclusion: Myocardial calcification is an under diagnosed entity that leads to considerable morbidity and mortality. Modern imaging methods allow a prompt diagnosis but a high index of suspicion has to be maintained for accurate detection of medical condition.

Objective: To assess the myocardial viability on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging compared with single photon emission computed tomography scan in patients with coronary artery disease.

Study Design: This study was cross sectional study.

Place and Duration of Study: Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Nuclear Medicine Departments of a Tertiary Cardiac Care Center of Rawalpindi Pakistan, from Dec 2021 to May 2022.

Methodology: This study was cross sectional study conducted from December 2021 to May 2022 at Cardiac Magnetic resonance imaging and Nuclear Medicine departments of a Tertiary Cardiac Care Center of Rawalpindi Pakistan. Thirty patients (n=30) with coronary artery disease were selected using non-probability consecutive sampling technique to determine the viable myocardium using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scan. Patients with left ventricular dysfunction having ejection fraction equal to or less than forty-five percent and coronary artery disease were included.

Results: Using 20 segment models, the mean number of viable segments in SPECT scan and CMR were 16.6±3.18 and 15.47±3.84, respectively while the non-viable segments were 3.4±3.1 and 5.17±4.6, respectively. There was statically little difference in results of Single-photon Emission Computerized Tomography and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging to determine viable myocardium (p<0.05).

Conclusion: Assessment of myocardial viability has keen role in diagnostic and prognostic work up of coronary artery disease patients who are candidates of revascularization. Stunned and hibernating myocardium are two states oreversible myocardial dysfunction.....

Objective: To determine frequency of diastolic dysfunction in asymptomatic type 2 diabetic patients by employing twodimensional (2D) echocardiography as a measurement method.

Study Design: It was an Analytical Cross sectional study.

Place and Duration of Study: Rawalpindi Institute of Cardiology, Rawalpindi Pakistan, from Jul 2021 to Nov 2021

Methodology: Patients, already diagnosed as diabetics for more than 5 years and on dietary control or on medications,presenting to the outpatient department of the hospital were enrolled. They were subjected to a 2D echocardiography in left lateral position. We excluded patients with valvular heart disease, ischemia, congestive heart failure, cardiomyopathy of any aetiology, renal failure, pulmonary illness, anemia, hemoglobinopathies, prior myocardial infarctions in any region, smokers,and hypertension. Diastolic dysfunction was evaluated as per the guidelines of American society of Echocardiography.

Results: Overall (n=150) patients were calculated with reference to 11% prevalence of LVDD by sample size calculator, being the part of study who were fulfilling the inclusion criteria. There were 102(68.0%) male and 48(32.0%) female patients; mean age was 45.02±6.07 years. Mean duration of diabetes mellitus in years was 6.93±2.53 with ranges from 5 to 16 years. Patients on oral hypoglycemic were 121(80.7%), on insulin were 5(3.3%), on dietary control were 12(8%) and on mixed treatment were 12(8%). There were 58 (38.7%) patients who had diastolic dysfunction present on echocardiogram. Effect modifiers of durationof diabetes (p=0.2) did not show significant association; however, Age (p=0.001) and Gender (p=0.038) significantly associated with Diastolic Dysfunction.

Conclusions: One of the simple and noninvasive approaches to diagnose diastolic dysfunction is doing 2D echocardiography which can identify large percentage of diabetic subjects having pre-clinical diastolic dysfunction. Thus, by on time detection we can initiate treatment and retard the progression of diastolic dysfunction.

Recent increase in deployment of trans-catheter devices such as septal or ductal occluding coils and devices has been a possible risk factor for infective endocarditis, predominantly in the initial post deployment period before endothelialization has ensued. Though a long-term study of trans-catheter Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) closure revealed no cases of Infective Endocarditis, some case reports of endocarditis in trans-catheter device closure of ASD, VSD and Patent ductus arteriosus(PDA) advocate that residual defect after device occlusion may be a factor in the risk for Infective Endocarditis. We herein describe the case of a 9-month-old female patient who underwent device closure for peri-membranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) and developed fungal infective endocarditis in early post occlusion period which was confirmed on blood culture. Despite treatment with appropriate antifungal as per sensitivity, clinical condition of the patient deteriorated and it was decided to manage her with surgical explanation of device and closure of defect.
