De-Centering the Normative in the Introduction to Buddhism Class
Authors: McGovern Nathan
Published: July 2021

In this article, I present an alternative method for teaching the Intro to Buddhism class. The standard way of teaching this class allows little room for non-normative aspects of Buddhism such as violence, and insofar as it does, it implicitly frames them as “aberrations” from “real Buddhism.” In my syllabus, I began by having students read The Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching by Thich Nhat Hanh, which teaches them about Buddhist doctrine with a seductively modernist approach. At the mid-point of the semester, I then reveal to them that Thich Nhat Hanh’s book leaves out a great deal of what is found in actual traditional Buddhist practice, including reincarnation, gods, spirits, miracles, the supernatural, patriarchy, and violence. In the second half of the semester, we then study regional forms of Buddhism, with a special eye towards practice, including the practice of violence.
Humanizing the Rohingya Beyond Victimization
Authors: D’Elena Grisel
Published: July 2021

This article is based on interviews with U Ashin Wirathu and an analysis of Buddhist nationalist discourses of violence against religious and ethnic minorities in Myanmar. I explore a fundamental issue that continues to plague the Rohingya—the emphasis on the Rohingya as victims of nationalist systemic Buddhist violence. This chapter sets out to bring Rohingya agency to the forefront. Rohingyas are characterized as immutably foreign and Muslim—that is, they are labeled with an identity convenient to state-sangha oppression. Through interviews with relocated Rohingya society members and the mentoring of Dr. Jerryson, this work is dedicated to the rehumanization and devictimization of the Rohingya.

Problematic digital technology use in children and adolescents:Impact on physical well-being
Authors: Meates Julie
Published: July 2021

Since the evolution of the internet in 1969 and the inception of the personal computer in the early 1970s, a significant body of research has emerged that highlights the impacts of digital technology on education, health and human development. There is extensive research examining the physical, mental, and social health effects on young people and adolescents as well as the impacts of digital technology on their educational achievements.

The aim of the review reported on here was to examine the impact of digital technology, and more specifically the use of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies in schools. BYOD allows students to bring phones, tablets and personal computers to school. Numerous components with a negative impact on physical health have been identified.

Outcomes of this study will be of interest to school leaders as policy makers. There is a need for trustworthy information on which to base reviews and revisions of school policy to ameliorate the risks of digital technology. This research report is also of relevance for tertiary providers and the government with the implementation of more online learning in class and online distance learning during COVID-19 restrictions.

Background: A population study is an important tool that can be used to understand the actual epidemiological scenario of the Covid-19 in different territories, identify its magnitude, understand its transmission dynamics, and its demographic, geographical, and social distribution.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the population of two Brazilian cities during the pandemic first wave and subsequent socioeconomic and health effects.
Materials & methods: This paper described the methodological procedures adopted and the prevalence of the SARS-CoV-2 infection in the population. A household survey was conducted between October and December 2020, in two historic cities of Brazil's mining region. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody was detected using the Wondfo® rapid test. The face-to-face interview consisted of administration of a questionnaire containing registration data, sociodemographic and economic variables, living habits, general health condition, mental health, sleep habits, and eating and nutrition.
Results: We evaluated 1,762 residents, of which 764 (43.4%) were in Mariana and 998 (56.6%) in Ouro Preto. For both cities, 51.9% of the interviewees were female, with a predominance of the age range 35 to 59 years old (47.2%). The prevalence of the SARS-CoV-2 infection was 5.5% in all cities, 6.2% in Ouro Preto, and 4.7% in Mariana. The prevalence was similar between cities (P>0.05).
Conclusion: The study was effective in verifying the seroprevalence of infection by the virus and its findings will enable further analyses of the health conditions of the population related to social isolation and the risk of infection with SARS-CoV-2.
Clinical semiology of temporal lobe seizures in preschool children: contribution of invasive recording to anatomical classification
Authors: Fohlen Martine , Taussig Delphine , Ferrand‐Sorbets Sarah , Chipaux Mathilde , Dorfmuller Georg
Published: July 2021

Objective: Focal seizure semiology is often inadequately studied, specifically in preschool children. Among drug‐resistant epilepsies amenable to surgery, temporal lobe seizure semiology has been widely described in this age group. Nevertheless, a systematic anatomo‐electroclinical study has never been performed.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the charts of patients younger than six years old at the time of video‐EEG recording who were operated on for temporal lobe epilepsy in our centre between 2010 and 2016. In order to describe the electroclinical semiology and establish anatomo‐clinical correlations, we reviewed all the recorded seizures on scalp and invasive video‐EEG and analysed pre‐ and postsurgical clinical data, MRI scans, and surgical and pathological data. We classified patients into the following four anatomical groups: mesio‐temporal, temporal lateral, polar, and mesio‐lateral, and for each group we selected video‐EEG samples for educational purposes.

Results: Twenty‐eight patients fulfilled the selection criteria. Twenty‐three patients (82%) were explored with invasive electrodes that consisted of foramen ovale electrodes in 11 (39%) and stereoelectroencephalography in 12 (43%). The majority of the 53% of patients with mesio‐temporal epilepsies had specific ictal semiology, as described in adults. The others had subtle seizures or seizures limited to apnoea. The other groups also had some features comparable to adults, although no child reported the classic auras of lateral epilepsies. In total, 11% had infantile spasms (IS); post‐ictal examination provided lateralization signs in 28%. With a mean post‐surgical follow‐up duration of 5.5 years, 89% of the patients were classified as Engel Class I.

Significance: Preschool children were shown to have non‐specific seizures, notably subtle events or IS. However, careful video‐EEG analysis can provide arguments for localizing the epileptogenic zone within the temporal lobe in most cases. Seizures with apnoea are characteristic of mesial temporal onset in patients with long‐term epilepsy‐associated tumours.

Objective: Hemispheric surgery is an effective and cost‐effective option for hemispheric epilepsy. Data specifically focusing on very early infancy are scant. In our study, we report the results of hemispheric surgery in children under three years of age, along with clinical, neuroradiological and EEG features, from two Italian epilepsy surgery centres.

Methods: After reviewing our epilepsy surgery databases (2008‐2018), we identified 14 patients (seven males) submitted to hemispheric surgery, under three years (range: 2‐29 months), with a follow‐up of at least 12 months.

Results: No deaths occurred, and surgical complications were observed in 3/17 procedures. At final follow‐up visit (mean: 30.8 months; range: 12‐90), 10/14 patients (71.4%) achieved Engel Class I (eight Class 1A, one Class 1B, and one Class 1C). Antiepileptic drugs were completely discontinued in three and reduced in eight, thus a significant decrease in drug regimen after surgery was achieved in 11/14 patients (78.6%). Before surgery, severe developmental delay was present in 10 patients, moderate in two and mild in two. At the last follow‐up visit, the degree of developmental delay changed from severe to moderate in five patients, remained unchanged in six cases (four severe and two moderate), and changed from mild to moderate in two following surgery.

Significance: In many cases, hemispheric surgery in children under three years is effective in achieving seizure freedom or reducing seizure frequency, with the possibility of simplifying complex drug regimens. Moreover, it appears to be a safe and well tolerated procedure, leading to improvement in cognition and posture.

Medya teknolojilerinin gelişiminin belirgin gözlendiği alanlardan biri tüketicinin eğlence amaçlı olarak tükettiği araçlar, platformlar ve hizmetlerdir. Özellikle abonelik usulü hizmet veren “talebe yönelik” (video on demand-VOD) platformlar, izleyicilerin 7/24 mobil teknolojiler üzerinden erişiminin bulunduğu zengin içerik tüketimine olanak veren platformlardır. Netflix, dünyada yaygın olarak kullanılan bir VOD platformudur. Firma, sosyal medyayı ana pazarlama iletişiminin bir parçası olarak kullanmaktadır. Bu bağlamda Twitter, Netflix’in en sık kullandığı mecradır. Bu çalışma, Netflix Türkiye’nin Twitter’ı bir pazarlama iletişimi aracı olarak nasıl kullandığını ortaya çıkarmayı amaçlamaktadır. Aynı zamanda bu çalışma, COVID-19 sebebi ile tüketicilerin evde daha çok vakit geçirdiği ve buna bağlı olarak ekran karşısında kalma sürelerinin arttığı bu dönemde, firmanın Twitter kullanım stratejilerinde değişiklik yapıp yapmadığını sorgulamaktadır. Bu kapsamda, Netflix Türkiye’nin Twitter hesabı üzerinde yaptığı toplam 228 paylaşım üzerinde nicel içerik analizi yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre Netflix, her iki dönemde de ağırlıklı olarak Twitter paylaşımlarını içerik tanıtımı yapmak için kullanmıştır. Bununla birlikte firmanın en çok kullandığı eklenti, her iki dönem için de hashtag kullanımıdır. Paylaşım yapılan saatlerde ise pandemi süreciyle evde geçirilen saatlerin değişmesi ile iki dönem arasında farklılıklar olduğu gözlenmiştir.

Published: July 2021

El cambio climático está imponiendo condiciones cada vez más cálidas y secas en los viñedos de la cuenca mediterránea, que afectan tanto a la fisiología y fenología de la vid, como a la producción y a la calidad de la uva. En este contexto, se hacen necesarias medidas de adaptación y mitigación frente al cambio climático para mantener vinos de alta calidad y tipicidad varietal, así como para responder a las demandas del mercado. El objetivo de este trabajo es mostrar estrategias de adaptación que están llevando a cabo o están considerando los viticultores de la Denominación de Origen Calificada Rioja (DOCa Rioja). Entre las estrategias destacan: i) los cambios de localización del viñedo, bien hacia áreas con posibilidades de riego y suelos muy fértiles (terrazas bajas, principalmente), o bien hacia zonas de mayor altitud (glacis altos, fundamentalmente), con lo que se trata de evitar los efectos del estrés hídrico y del incremento de las temperaturas; y ii) las modificaciones en el sistema de conducción de la cepa, sustituyendo en muchas ocasiones la conducción en vaso por la de espaldera, con el fin de hacer coincidir un mayor grado de mecanización de las tareas agronómicas y la mejora del microclima de la cepa, especialmente en las nuevas plantaciones sobre suelos muy fértiles. Estas estrategias serán cada vez más relevantes, teniendo en cuenta el previsible incremento de las temperaturas y de las sequías en los futuros escenarios climáticos. No obstante, se plantea la duda de si serán suficientes o se necesitará eliminar restricciones actuales impuestas por la DOCa Rioja, como ampliar el área de cultivo del viñedo en zonas de montaña o introducir nuevas variedades.

Background: Congenital anterior abdominal wall defects (AAWD) is a spectrum of abdominal wall defects that includes omphalocele, gastroschisis, bladder exstrophy, cloacal exstrophy, prune belly syndrome and pentalogy of Cantrell. Early Prenatal diagnosis of AAWD provides opportunity for abnormal karyotypes screening and planned delivery in a specialized centre. Ultrasound can detect these defects during pregnancy. This study aims to evaluate the detection rate of AAWD during routine obstetric ultrasonography in our region.Methods: A retrospective study of all patients that presented with AAWD to our centre from January 2008 to July 2020. Data included patient’s age, sex, birth weight, diagnosis, resuscitation time, outcome, maternal age, parity and antenatal ultrasound scan (USS) records. Antenatal USS before 12 weeks only, were excluded. Data analysed using excel.Results: Of the 140 with AAWD, 84.29% had omphalocele, 10% gastroschisis, 2.14% prune belly syndrome and 0.71% each with bladder exstrophy, cloacal exstrophy and pentalogy of Cantrell. There were 123 booked pregnancies. Majority (112) had antenatal care elsewhere while 11 attended our Centre. Ultrasonography of 108 pregnancies scanned at12 weeks or beyond, had 4 confirmed prenatal diagnosis of AAWD. All done in our centre. Mean gestational age at diagnosis was 24weeks. Outcome was rupture1 (25%) and 25% mortality (prenatally diagnosed) and 51.92% mortality for patients with missed diagnosis.Conclusions: Our obstetric ultrasound detection rate of AAWD is very low. There is a need for improvement in training to improve perinatal care of these defects.

Published: July 2021

Background: Kerala faces high mortality-morbidity rates from water borne diseases. For the timely management of communicable diseases, understanding trends, pattern and seasonality of disease was important. The aim was to find out the trend, pattern and seasonal variation of water borne diseases in Kerala.Methods: Retrospective record based descriptive study was done to find out the trend and pattern of water borne diseases and to find out its seasonal variation in Kerala. Data from the DHS (directorate of health services) portal during 2011 to 2019 were collected and analyzed.Results: More than 97 percent of water borne diseases are due to diarrheal diseases but no death reported. A rising trend in diarrheal disease is observed. Typhoid, hepatitis A and cholera showed decreasing trend. Leptospirosis shared only 0.2 to 0.4 percent, but death rate was high. Malapuram tends to report most number of cases but percentage share was highest from Kozhikode in 2011. Palakkad reported highest number and Kottayam lowest among central districts. Among southern districts, Thiruvananthapuram reported highest number of cases and Pathanamthitta lowest. Malappuram showed declining trend among northern districts while least number of cases were reported from Wayand district. Seasonal variability was observed in 2011-2013 and 2018.Conclusions: Seasonal variation in occurrence of water borne diseases in rainy season is statistically significant when compared to winter season. Data on water borne disease other than diarrheal diseases is a matter of concern.

Background: COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus, and has spread around the world in a deadly pandemic. The first case of COVID-19 was reported from Wuhan, China in December 2019. This is also called as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) because of its homology with SARS virus. The most common hematological manifestation of coronavirus is lymphopenia which is due to depletion of lymphocytes by coronavirus infection. Other manifestations are neutrophilia and mild thrombocytopenia. Literature is full of quantitative hematological parameters but the researches on morphology of white blood cells is still ongoing. We at our institute done study on 60 confirmed positive cases of COVID-19, and analyzed those peripheral smears in terms of morphology of white blood cells.Methods: The study was done using peripheral smear staining with methylene blue stain and was screened for various changes in white blood cells in peripheral smear.Results: Changes in the white blood cells were examined in the peripheral smear and findings were made in the tabular form.Conclusions: To conclude that all these changes are due to the virus infecting them or are secondary to pathogenesis of COVID disease, needs to be evaluated by larger studies.
Spontaneous lumbo-sacral epidural hematoma presenting as Cauda Equina syndrome: a case report
Authors: Sarwar Mohammad , Tripathy Laxminarayan , Bhattacharyya Kalyanbrata
Published: July 2021

Spinal epidural hematoma (SEH) is a rare condition and it accounts for less than 1% of all spinal canal space occupying conditions. Spontaneous SEH most commonly occurs in the cervical and thoracic regions. They present with neck or back pain with radiculopathy and/ or myelopathy. Early surgical decompression is the recommended treatment in the presence of progressive neurological deficits. Spontaneous SEH (SSEH) presenting as Cauda Equina syndrome (CES) are rarely reported in the literature. We present a case of SSEH presenting late with CES. Due to delay in presentation and multiple co-morbidities, patient was treated conservatively.

Authors: Songra Bhupen , Kumar Amit , Jain Mohit , Jalendra Gaurav
Published: July 2021

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the procedure of choice for majority of patients with gall bladder disease. The aim of the study was to investigate the role of male gender as an isolated risk factor responsible for the increased peri-operative morbidity of laparoscopic cholecystectomy by excluding associated risk factors.Methods: This was a prospective observational descriptive study 60 cases of elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy admitted to the S. M. S. Hospital from July 2019 to May 2020 were included.Results: The most common age group in male was 41-50 years and in female was 51-60 years. Impacted stones and gall bladder wall thickness >4 mm was causes of difficult cholecystectomy and evenly distributed in both sexes. Operative time (p value=0.268), visual analogue score on day 1 (p value=0.307) and hospital stay (p value=0.376) was more in male group but not statistically significant.Conclusions: Impacted stone and gall bladder wall thickness >4 mm were only factors associated with difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy and excludes male gender as an isolated risk factor for difficult cholecystectomy however large-scale studies may provide different results.

Published: July 2021

GIST (gastrointestinal stromal tumors) are the rare mesenchymal tumors. Treatment includes curative surgery along with targeted agents like TKI in neoadjuvant/adjuvant settings. A total of 20 patients of histology proven GIST who were registered between 2014 to 2020 were reviewed for clinico-pathological data, endoscopic and radiological investigations, sites, primary treatment received, histology, immunohistochemistry, stage, risk stratification and imatinib therapy. GIST was more common in males than females. Age group varied between 25 years to 76 years. Majority of patients consumed non vegetarian diet, half of them being smokers and consumed alcohol. Pain abdomen, abdominal lump, dysphagia, haematemesis, melena and blood in stools were presenting complaints. CECT revealed heterogeneously enhancing mass with necrosis as most common finding. Upper GI endoscopy/colonoscopy revealed extrinsic bulge, polypoidal growth or ulcers as main findings. Stomach was the most common site followed by jejunum. Few patients presented with metastatic disease to liver and lungs. HPE revealed spindle cell GIST as main histology (with one patient with mixed spindle and epithelioid cells) with all patients having immunoreactivity to CD117. Majority of patients belonged to stage III and high-risk category by NIH stratification criteria. In majority of patients treatment received was surgery followed by adjuvant imatinib. Few patients had unresectable disease at presentation and received imatinib as upfront therapy. Imatinib was well tolerated in majority of patients. Few experienced manageable side effects like headache, irritability, leukopenia, pain abdomen, vomiting. Duration of treatment was one to three years. GIST is a rare tumor with varied presentations. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment offering chances of cure and revolutionary adjuvant imatinib is well tolerated with mild and manageable side effects in our centre. Being a resource limited centre, affordability for special investigations like IHC (immunohistochemistry) for CD117 (which helps in further confirmation of the diagnosis), remains a challenge for the patient and so does the 2nd line agent like sunitinib in case of recurrence.

Published: July 2021

Inguinal hernia is one of the ancient diseases that haunted the humanity from its very beginning to the modern times. Giant inguinal hernia is defined as an inguinal hernia that extends below the midpoint of inner thigh when the patient is in standing position. A 43 years old healthy male was affected by long standing, progressively enlarging right sided inguinal hernia for the past 21 years. His symptoms of abdominal discomfort and pain in lower abdomen after meal had worsened over time and he had lost 13 kg of weight in past 2 years. He had difficulty in micturition and gave history of constipation. Giant inguinal hernia is a type of hernia with massive contents inside the hernia sac and limited domain of abdominal cavity. The surgeon’s decision regarding the prevention of intra-abdominal hypertension is a crucial stage of overall management. Giant inguinal hernia is a very rare. It is defined as hernia sac extending below mid inner thigh in the standing position. Surgical repair is very challenging and has significant morbidity and mortality due to increased intra-abdominal pressure and abdominal compartment syndrome.

Published: July 2021

Post traumatic near total amputation of apex of tongue is a rare scenario but when happens it causes life threatening situation due to active intraoral bleeding and risk of aspiration especially in children. Tongue is a unique organ which has very rich blood supply and resides in intraoral cavity. Due to its rich blood supply profuse bleeding is commonly seen after the tongue injury. It helps in swallowing, speech, taste, mastication and airway protection. It facilitates perception of gustatory stimuli. Here author presents a case of 13 months old female child, who presented to emergency department with history of fell down from the bed and sustained tongue injury with profuse bleeding. On examination patient had near total amputation of apex of tongue. Gentle debridement followed by meticulous complex repair of intrinsic muscles of tongue was done. On post-operative day two patient was discharged uneventfully.
