Treatment of Shoulder Osteoarthritis With Intact Rotator Cuff and Severe Glenoid Retroversion
Authors: Wright Melissa A. , Smith Matthew J. , Roach Christopher J.
Published: April 2024

The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons has developed an Appropriate Use Criteria (AUC) for Treatment of Shoulder Osteoarthritis with Intact Rotator Cuff and Severe Glenoid Retroversion. Evidence-based information, in conjunction with the clinical expertise of physicians, was used to develop the criteria to determine the appropriateness of various treatments of shoulder osteoarthritis with intact rotator cuff and severe glenoid retroversion. The AUC for Treatment of Shoulder Osteoarthritis with Intact Rotator Cuff and Severe Glenoid Retroversion were derived by identifying scenarios evident during the clinical decision-making process on this topic. These scenarios relied on definitions and general assumptions, mutually agreed upon by the writing panel during scenario development. These definitions and assumptions were necessary to provide consistency in the interpretation of the clinical scenarios among experts rating the scenarios and readers using the final criteria. Writing panel members of this AUC developed patient scenarios using these guiding principles: comprehensive (covers a wide range of patients), mutually exclusive (no overlap between patient scenarios/indications), homogeneous (final ratings should result in equal application in each of the patient scenarios), and manageable (number of total rating items [ie, number of patient scenarios × number of treatments] should be practical for the rating panel). The target number of total rating items was <1,500. This means that not all patient indications and treatments can be assessed using AUC. A total of 240 patient scenarios and five treatments were developed by the writing panel, a group of clinicians who are specialists in this AUC topic. Next, a separate, multidisciplinary, rating panel (made up of specialists and non-specialists) rated the appropriateness of treatment of each patient scenario using a nine-point scale to designate a treatment as “appropriate” (median rating, 7 to 9), “may be appropriate” (median rating, 4 to 6), or “rarely appropriate” (median rating, 1 to 3).

Authors: Chaudhry Faran , Morgan Samuel , Kruse Colin , Wolfstadt Jesse , Ekhtiari Seper
Published: April 2024

Purpose:

Depression is a notable contributor to suboptimal outcomes after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). We conducted a systematic review of comparative studies to review the available evidence of interventions that affected depression scores and/or outcomes for patients undergoing TJA.

Methods:

EMBASE, Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, and Scopus were reviewed systematically from inception until November 15, 2022. Studies that were relevant for this review included comparative studies between patients who received an intervention within 3 months before or after their primary total hip or knee arthroplasty procedure. The interventions included a wide range of modalities, which were grouped into psychotherapy, enhanced perioperative support, and pharmacotherapy. Other interventions included physiotherapy techniques with a psychological focus, art/music-based therapy, occupational therapy support, and educational interventions. Meta-analysis was conducted for psychotherapy and enhanced support.

Results:

The final systematic review consisted of 28 relevant studies, most of which were randomized controlled trials. A total of 3,702 patients, with a mean age of 66 years, were considered, of whom 59% were female. Most of the studies reported a notable reduction in depressive symptoms and/or scores based on the interventions being analyzed. At 3 months postoperatively, psychotherapy and enhanced support both resulted in markedly better depression and function scores compared with control subjects, with psychotherapy additionally improving pain scores.

Conclusions:

Overall, a wide range of interventions aimed at psychological optimization of patients undergoing TJA can improve depressive symptoms, pain, and function, even in the absence of a formal diagnosis of depression. Specifically, cognitive-based psychotherapy and enhanced perioperative support had the best evidence. Routine pharmacotherapy plays a limited role, if any, in the care of TJA. Additional efforts to develop pragmatic, evidence-based, and reproducible interventions are warranted to continue to optimize outcomes in TJA patients.

Published: April 2024

The study analyzed the performance of insurance companies and the insurance stock price movement in Nigeria using Fama’s model of efficient market approach. Lack of information about insurance stock prices movement can influence investor’s decision making on insurance stock investments. An ex post facto research design was employed in the study. The research covers the activities of 19 insurance companies that are listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange as at December 31, 2022. The data sample of the study comprises of daily stock prices data of 19 listed insurance companies for the period January 4, 2022 December 30, 2022. Fama-French three factor coefficient estimates obtained from quantile regression was used to test the hypothesis. The results revealed that there is a significant relationship between the insurance stock price movement and the performance of insurance companies in Nigeria, and that such relationship is negative. Recommendations were that there should be perfect information about stock market forces of demand and supply because if there is information asymmetry through which borrowers (securities issuers) know more about the risks than the lenders to (securities purchasers), the market participants may be reluctant to trade with insurance stocks, whose characteristics and behaviour under varying economic conditions are not well known. Also, it is important for the regulator in formulating policies that encourage diversification of investments among others.

Authors: Pejčić Ana V , Stefanović Srdjan M , Milosavljević Miloš N , Janjić Vladimir S , Folić Marko M , Folić Nevena D , Milosavljević Jovana Z
Published: April 2024

BACKGROUND

Women with a history of serious psychotic disorders are at increased risk of disease relapse during pregnancy. Long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotics have been widely used to improve adherence and prevent relapse in patients with various severe psychotic disorders, but there is a lack of high-quality data from previous research on the safety of LAI antipsychotics during pregnancy.

AIM

To summarize relevant data on maternal, pregnancy, neonatal, and developmental outcomes from published cases of LAI antipsychotic use in pregnancy.

METHODS

A literature search was performed through November 11, 2023, using three online databases: PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science. Case reports or case series that reported information about the outcomes of pregnancy in women who used LAI antipsychotics at any point in pregnancy, with available full texts, were included. Descriptive statistics, narrative summation, and tabulation of the extracted data were performed.

RESULTS

A total of 19 publications satisfied the inclusion criteria: 3 case series, 15 case reports, and 1 conference abstract. They reported the outcomes of LAI antipsychotic use in 74 women and 77 pregnancies. The use of second-generation LAI antipsychotics was reported in the majority (n = 47; 61.0%) of pregnancies. First-generation LAI antipsychotics were administered during 30 pregnancies (39.0%). Most of the women (approximately 64%) had either satisfactory control of symptoms or no information about relapse, while approximately 12% of them had developed gestational diabetes mellitus. A minority of cases reported adverse outcomes such as stillbirth, spontaneous abortion, preterm birth, low birth weight, congenital anomalies, and neurological manifestations in newborns. However, there were no reports of negative long-term developmental outcomes.

CONCLUSION

Currently available data seem reassuring, but further well-designed studies are required to properly evaluate the risks and benefits of LAI antipsychotic use during pregnancy.

Investigating the Relationship Between ESG Performance and Market Capitalization
Authors:   Master in Business Administration Mittal School Business  LOVELY PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY PHAGWARA, PUNJAB, Kanwar, Namrata
Published: April 2024

This study investigates the potential connection between a company's environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and its market capitalization within the Indian context. Utilizing a scatter plot analysis of a large dataset encompassing 693 companies, the research revealed a weak negative trend between ESG combined score and market capitalization. However, the significant dispersion of data points across the plot suggested a more complex relationship. The analysis acknowledged the limitations of scatter plots, particularly their inability to account for the influence of other factors on market valuation. Factors such as company size, financial performance, industry affiliation, and economic conditions might be playing a significant role. Additionally, the observed data dispersion hinted at potential market mispricing, where companies with strong ESG practices might be undervalued by investors, and industry-specific effects, where the impact of ESG on market value could be stronger in certain sectors. To gain a deeper understanding of this intricate relationship, future research directions were identified. These included analysing correlations between individual ESG subcomponents and market capitalization to identify specific areas with a stronger association. Segmenting the data by industry could reveal industry-specific effects. Furthermore, employing regression analysis can offer a more robust understanding of the relative influence of various factors on market valuation. Finally, a long-term perspective might be necessary to capture potential delayed effects of ESG practices on market value. By addressing these limitations and exploring these avenues, future research can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the interplay between ESG performance and market valuation in the Indian market.

Authors: Pawar Harsh
Published: April 2024

Firstly, the abstract delves into the diverse array of bypass techniques employed by adversaries, ranging from traditional methods such as password cracking and privilege escalation to more advanced tactics like file less malware and code injection. Understanding these tactics is crucial for defenders to anticipate and counteract potential threats effectively. Secondly, the abstract highlights the limitations of singular security measures and advocates for the adoption of multilayer security strategies. By implementing a combination of preventive, detective, and corrective controls, organizations can create multiple barriers for attackers, making it significantly more challenging to compromise Windows systems. These layers may include network firewalls, intrusion detection systems, endpoint protection software, and user training programs. Moreover, the abstract emphasizes the importance of proactive security measures, such as regular software updates, vulnerability assessments, and penetration testing, to identify and address potential weaknesses before they can be exploited by attackers. Additionally, the abstract discusses the significance of user education and awareness in mitigating common attack vectors, such as phishing and social engineering.

A System of IoT Devices to Prevent the Underloading And Overloading of Railway Wagons
Authors:   Assistant Professor, Dept. of Electrical Engineering, AVCOE, Sangamner, Maharashtra, India, Pathak Prof. Anilkumar
Published: April 2024

Coal transportation poses substantial obstacles for corporations such as Coal India Limited (CIL), including concerns with route selection, rehandling, precise weighing, demurrage costs, and underloading fines. CIL's failure to adopt optimal transportation routes has resulted in needless costs. Coal rehandling at depots has proven expensive, and there are disparities in coal transportation rates. The lack of weighbridges makes accurate weighing difficult, resulting in probable pilferage. Demurrage costs have been a financial hardship, and railway carriages underloaded have resulted in fines. To address these challenges, the proposed IoT solution seeks to reduce financial losses, improve operational efficiency, increase accountability, ensure regulatory compliance, provide real-time monitoring, automate alerts and penalties, improve communication, improve data security, provide multilingual support, and, ultimately, increase revenue. This idea aims to change coal transportation by increasing efficiency, transparency, and cost-effectiveness for CIL and the government. However, it incurs initial expenses and complications associated with IoT deployment, maintenance, and regulatory compliance. Keywords: CIL, IOT, efficiency, pilferage.

Por tal motivo, el estudio actual se centra en la conexión entre ambas variables en esta población.

Objetivo: El objetivo de la presente investigación es determinar la relación entre la desregulación emocional y la autoeficacia en adolescentes.

Métodos: El estudio posee un enfoque cuantitativo con un diseño de investigación no experimental, nivel correlacional y corte transversal. Se contó con la participación de adolescentes que cursaban entre noveno y tercero de bachillerato de instituciones educativas públicas y privadas.

Resultados: Se determinó que existe una correlación negativa entre la desregulación emocional y la autoeficacia.

Conclusiones: La muestra presenta altos puntajes en regulación emocional y una alta autoeficacia; en cuanto a la diferencia por sexo en la variable de desregulación emocional se determinó que las mujeres tienen mayor dificultad en la regulación emocional. Además, se determinó que a mayor desregulación emocional se presenta menor autoeficacia y viceversa.
