Outlining Placid Involvements: Understanding the Lived Experiences of Philippine School Doha Alumni Studying Abroad
Authors: MAT Efren L. Burgos
Published: January 2022

Abstract: Background: As Philippine School Doha alumni move on and open another chapter in life, they face challenges and new experiences. They may indulge themselves in a new type of environment of rebuilding one's identity abroad. Method: The qualitative paper follows the phenomenological research design to understand the lived experiences and identity development of PSD alumni studying abroad. The necessary data was gathered from a semi-structured interview which was derived from the central question of the study “How do PSD graduates manage their education embracing an international setup?” Four themes were derived and classified that were necessary to make the simulacrum. Findings: It was discovered that internal and external aspects and changes affect one’s ability to adapt to the international setting. Specifically, homesickness, culture, accent, and language barriers are some factors that affect the process of adaptation. The participants emphasized that the workload they experience in the chosen country is more practical and directed on their selected course. Hence, students mostly initiate interaction between both parties. Conclusion: These PSD alumni pursued tertiary education abroad to explore and discover opportunities. Obstacles were encountered due to their unfamiliarity with their reality of venturing into a new chapter of life as a student. Overall, their experience has affected their lifestyle, mental and emotional health, learning outcomes, and relations. Recommendation: This paper suggests tackling a larger population of participants from different fields of college courses to establish the accuracy of the data gathered. They also recommend further investigation regarding the other aspects that affect one's process of acculturating; and lifestyles practiced abroad, such as the cost of living, economic status, and peers.

Published: January 2022

Preservation of the facial nerve (FN) and vestibulocochlear nerve is essential to keep the quality of life of patients during surgery for the treatment of vestibular schwannoma (VS). One of the great challenges for neurosurgeons is to make a good surgical planning, to identify a tumor location, as well as its relationship with anatomical and nervous structures to facilitate the surgeon’s work and avoid inappropriate conducts. Currently, many studies have reported the effectiveness of the diffusion tensor and tractography imaging (DTI) technique. We conducted a systematic review of studies that report the use of this technique.The PubMed and Embase databases were used to search, according to pre-established inclusion and exclusion criteria. Twelve articles were selected for this study, with a total of 255 patients who underwent a DTI preoperatively. The location and path of the facial nerve were verified intraoperatively, and 226 (89%) correlated the DTI result with the intraoperative finding, which met our inclusion criteria. The results of this research pointed to the excellent result of the DTI to predict the location of the FN in the preoperative period, allowing greater surgical planning and improvement in the outcome of the facial nerve function.

Introduction: Decompressive craniectomy (DC) is a neurosurgical procedure that involves the removal of part of the skull bone to reduce intracranial pressure (ICP). If, on the one hand, its practice is considered beneficial. On the other hand, after DC, there are complications, including the surgical wound. Specific risk factors for developing complications include neurological status and age of the patient. Methodology: A descriptive study was carried out, presenting a case report, and conducting a literature review using data from PubMed, Medline, Science Direct and SciELO electronic databases. The terms “craniectomy” and “postoperative complications” were used, and studies containing postoperative complications of surgical wounds in patients undergoing decompressive craniectomy were selected. Discussion:Wound complications after DC were classified as dehiscence, ulceration or necrosis. Among those mentioned, it is assumed that dehiscence is more easily treated when promptly observed and treated. Differently, ulcers present a greater challenge because they are strictly related to infection, while necrosis presented itself as a rarer but more feared event due to the potential related complications, including infection. Conclusion: Although simple and beneficial to the patient, this procedure puts patients at risk for many complications that can negatively affect the outcome. To date, there are not many specific reports addressing this topic, making it difficult to guide the course of action.
Simulating Effective QED on Quantum Computers
Authors: Stetina Torin F. , Ciavarella Anthony , Li Xiaosong , Wiebe Nathan
Published: January 2022

In recent years simulations of chemistry and condensed materials has emerged as one of the preeminent applications of quantum computing, offering an exponential speedup for the solution of the electronic structure for certain strongly correlated electronic systems. To date, most treatments have ignored the question of whether relativistic effects, which are described most generally by quantum electrodynamics (QED), can also be simulated on a quantum computer in polynomial time. Here we show that effective QED, which is equivalent to QED to second order in perturbation theory, can be simulated in polynomial time under reasonable assumptions while properly treating all four components of the wavefunction of the fermionic field. In particular, we provide a detailed analysis of such simulations in position and momentum basis using Trotter-Suzuki formulas. We find that the number of T-gates needed to perform such simulations on a 3D lattice of ns sites scales at worst as O(ns3/ϵ)1+o(1) in the thermodynamic limit for position basis simulations and O(ns4+2/3/ϵ)1+o(1) in momentum basis. We also find that qubitization scales slightly better with a worst case scaling of O~(ns2+2/3/ϵ) for lattice eQED and complications in the prepare circuit leads to a slightly worse scaling in momentum basis of O~(ns5+2/3/ϵ). We further provide concrete gate counts for simulating a relativistic version of the uniform electron gas that show challenging problems can be simulated using fewer than 1013 non-Clifford operations and also provide a detailed discussion of how to prepare multi-reference configuration interaction states in effective QED which can provide a reasonable initial guess for the ground state. Finally, we estimate the planewave cutoffs needed to accurately simulate heavy elements such as gold.

Nutritional support is essential in the critical care of the very
preterm infant, however, study of the potential role of nutrition in the
multifactorial pathogenesis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is
limited. Achievement of full enteral feeding faster has not been shown
to be harmful and may be of benefit in extremely preterm infants. This
commentary discusses the studied risk and potential benefits of more
rapid enteral feeding advancement in extremely preterm infants.

AIM: To improve the tolerability and therapeutic application of histone
deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi), by application of an esterase-sensitive
motif (ESM), to target pharmacological activity directly to mononuclear
myeloid cells expressing the processing enzyme carboxylesterase-1
(CES1). METHODS. This first-in-human study comprised of single and
multiple ascending dose cohorts to determine safety and tolerability.
Pharmacodynamic parameters included acetylation, cytokine inhibition and
intracellular concentrations of processed acid metabolite in isolated
monocytes. Mechanistic work was conducted in vitro and in a
CES1/Es1e mouse strain. RESULTS. ESM-HDAC391
was well tolerated whilst showing robust targeted mechanistic
engagement, as demonstrated by selective retention of compound and
increased acetylation in monocytes plus inhibition of ex vivo
stimulated cytokine production. Importantly, common clinical HDACi
toxicities were not observed. ESM-HDAC391 treatment was accompanied by
the novel finding of a dose-dependent monocyte depletion that was
transient and reversible. In-depth characterisation of monocyte
depletion in a transgenic mouse model
(CES1/Es1e) suggested that CSF1R loss on
circulating cells contributes to ESM-HDAC-mediated depletion. Further
mechanistic investigations using human monocytes in vitro
demonstrated HDACi-mediated change in myeloid fate through modulation of
CSF1R and downstream effects on cell differentiation. CONCLUSION. These
findings demonstrate selective targeting of monocytes in humans using
the ESM approach and identify monocytopaenia as a novel outcome of
ESM-HDACi treatment, with implications for the potential benefit of
these molecules in myeloid-driven diseases.

Authors: Kwan Anita Y.M. , Gerstein Hertzel C. , Basile Jan , Xavier Denis , Maldonado Juan M. , Raha Sohini , Konig Manige
Published: January 2022

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate participant characteristics and long-term changes in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in patients treated with dulaglutide 1.5 mg in a post hoc analysis of the Researching cardiovascular Events with a Weekly INcretin in Diabetes (REWIND) trial.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

Change from baseline in HbA1c was assessed during and up to 72 months of treatment before and after adjustment for duration of diabetes, prior microvascular disease (nephropathy or retinopathy), and BMI. Slope analyses were used to assess the change in HbA1c during 0–12 months and 12–72 months of therapy.

RESULTS

HbA1c was significantly reduced in patients treated with dulaglutide compared with placebo during 72 months of treatment (least-squares mean difference = −0.61%, P < 0.001), regardless of diabetes duration, prior microvascular disease, and BMI (all interaction P > 0.07). Significant reductions were apparent at all time points and were independent of these baseline characteristics. Slope analyses revealed that the dulaglutide group experienced a higher rate of HbA1c reduction compared with the placebo group from 0 to 12 months before and after adjustment. The dulaglutide group also experienced a higher rate of HbA1c increase from 12 to 72 months compared with the placebo group that became nonsignificant after adjustment for diabetes duration, prior microvascular disease, and BMI combined. Despite the greater rate of HbA1c increase in the dulaglutide group during this period, mean HbA1c values remained below baseline in the dulaglutide group and below mean HbA1c values in the placebo group.

CONCLUSIONS

Dulaglutide 1.5-mg treatment was statistically associated with a long-lasting decrease in HbA1c over 72 months, irrespective of baseline duration of diabetes, microvascular disease, and BMI.
Financial Barriers in Emerging Adults With Type 1 Diabetes: A Qualitative Analysis
Authors: Grigorian Ernest G. , Litchman Michelle L. , Porter Margot E. , Blanchette Julia E. , Allen Nancy A.
Published: January 2022

Background

Emerging adulthood is a period fraught with challenging life transitions for many and is especially difficult for individuals with type 1 diabetes, as they encounter more obstacles to independently managing their diabetes. We examined the barriers faced by emerging adults and parents of emerging adults with type 1 diabetes and the impact these barriers had on their lives.

Methods

Emerging adults and parents of emerging adults with type 1 diabetes were recruited from primary care and specialty clinics and via social media posts. In the parent study, semi-structured interviews were conducted to understand what supported and did not support diabetes self-management. Interviews were transcribed, coded, and analyzed for common themes. This sub-analysis analyzed data related to financial challenges in accessing diabetes management equipment and supplies.

Results

This study included emerging adults with type 1 diabetes (n = 33; mean age 20 ± 2.9 years) and parents of emerging adults with type 1 diabetes (n = 17; mean age 47.5 ± 6.9 years). The majority of emerging adults used an insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring system (n = 24 [73%]). Four main themes emerged related to access to care: 1) affordability of diabetes management tools, 2) managing insurance, 3) communication with pharmacies and health care providers, and 4) emotional consequences of financial stress.

Conclusion

The current health system is challenging for emerging adults with type 1 diabetes and parents and is causing substantial emotional and financial stress. Future research is needed to address interventions for helping emerging adults and their parents navigate the cost of living with diabetes.
Endosomal sequestration of TLR4 antibody induces myeloid-derived suppressor cells and reverses acute Type 1 Diabetes

We
previously showed that treating NOD mice with an agonistic monoclonal
anti-TLR4/MD2 antibody (TLR4-Ab) reversed acute type one diabetes (T1D). Here,
we show that TLR4-Ab reverses T1D by induction of myeloid derived suppressor
cells (MDSC). Unbiased gene expression analysis after TLR4-Ab treatment
demonstrated upregulation of genes associated with CD11b+Ly6G+ myeloid cells,
and downregulation of T cell genes. Further RNAseq of purified, TLR4-Ab treated
CD11b+ cells showed significant upregulation of genes associated with bone
marrow-derived CD11b+ cells and innate immune system genes. TLR4-Ab significantly
increased percentages and numbers of CD11b+ cells. TLR4-Ab-induced CD11b+
cells, derived ex vivo from TLR4-Ab treated mice, suppress T cells, and
TLR4-Ab-conditioned bone marrow cells suppress acute T1D when transferred into
acutely diabetic mice. Thus, the TLR4-Ab-induced CD11b+ cells, by currently
accepted definition, are MDSCs able to reverse T1D. To understand the TLR4-Ab mechanism
we compared TLR4-Ab to TLR4 agonist LPS (which cannot reverse T1D). TLR4-Ab
remains sequestered at least 48 times longer than LPS within early endosomes,
alters TLR4 signaling and downregulates inflammatory genes and proteins
including NFkB. TLR4-Ab in the endosome therefore induces a sustained,
attenuated inflammatory response providing an ideal “second signal” for the
activation/maturation of MDSCs that can reverse acute T1D.

COVID-19 is the currently challenging pandemic situation worldwide. This infection is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2.Its spread was rapid initially which has comparatively reduced as of now solely due to practice of guidelines given by WHO and CDC for its control and prevention. Especially practice of maintaining social distance, equipped with mouth mask, regular hand sanitisation, minimising travelling etc. Acceptance of vaccines by the community has improved in facing the present pandemic situation. Most of the population is vaccinated presently in India. This pandemic has impacted worldwide in each aspect and especially greatly in medical field which has led to few modifications in approaching patients and also treatment modifications like addressing emergency situations first. Because of 100% infection spread rate due to aerosol inducing procedures in dentistry there was a shut in dental treatment for a period of time during the initial times of pandemic except the emergencies. Later with strict precautions and Covid protocols dental treatment has been provided to the community. Tele and virtual consultation has gained a great importance during this pandemic, which most of the doctors and patients have accepted way of addressing the health issues. This paper mentions about change in attitude of patients and practice of oral and maxillofacial surgery in the oxford dental college, Bangalore, Karnataka, India and how in turn this has helped health care system in preventing spread of Covid-19.
Estimation of Flouride Concentration in Drinking Water Sources of Bhilai, Chattisgarh
Authors: Kashyap Nilotpal
Published: January 2022

Background: Fluoride has always been considered as a “double edged sword”. The optimum and judicious use of fluoride has resulted in caries protection whereas injudicious use has resulted in chronic fluoride toxicity, which manifests as dental and skeletal fluoride. Dental fluorosis occurring due to drinking water with high concentration of fluoride is a common public health problem in India. Hence the present study was designed with an aim to estimate fluoride concentration in drinking water source of the people from Bhilai, Chattisgarh. Aim: To estimate fluoride concentration in drinking water source of the people from Bhilai, Chattisgarh. Material and Methods: Eight different samples of ground water was collected from bhiali, Chattisgarh, which is divided into four different areas: kurud (north), Maroda (south), Charoda (east), Nehrunagar (west); all these samples were tested by HI-96759-11 portable photometre and the fluoride concentration was determined. All the data obtained was then further subjected to statistical analysis and a conclusion was inferred regarding the fluoride concentration of drinking water source of the people of Bhilai, Chattisgarh which is essential for an effective fluoride regimen for prevention of dental caries in children. Result: Highest fluoride concentration in Bhilai is found to be 0.52 ± .056 ppm and the lowest being 0.31 ± .148 ppm. So, the fluoride concentration of the ground water in Bhilai is found to be in the range of 0.3-o.6 ppm. Thus, it does not possess any chance to cause dental fluorosis in the people of Bhilai. However, a fluoride supplementation of 0.25mg/day for 3-6yrs children and 0.50mg/day for 6-16yrs children can be done to enhance the prevention of dental caries in the children residing in Bhilai, Chattisgarh.
