Published: June 2022

Education must be able to accommodate towards to all those differences, and must provide all the students need as well encouraging them to actively participate in the learning process. The teaching process in class is still not giving the best support towards each studentâ€™s need. Most teachers still have a mindset that all students must have the same ability and has no clue how to probe the students need. The teaching process thatâ€™s been given are usually seem monotone and still using the teacher centered procedure, this procedure will hampering the critical thinking of students. I will share about the implementation from one of learning model which is differentiating instruction. This model can accommodate diversity students based on different readiness levels, interests and learning profile.

English Teaching in Vocational High School: A Need Analysis
Authors: Mahbub Moh. Arif
Published: June 2022

This research investigates the vocational school students’ needs on the implementation of English teaching and learning that is focused on the target needs and learning needs. By adapting Hutchinson and Waters’ model (1987), questionnaire consisting of parts A and B was administered to 32 students. Part A deals with the target needs centred on the learner’s necessities, lacks and wants that are effectively functioned in the target situation. In contrast, part B concerns about learning needs that encompass learning inputs, procedures, teacher’s and learners’ role, and setting. Additionally, interviews were also conducted with the students and an English teacher to gather data in order to examine in-depth results of the practices of English teaching and to uncover possible areas of students’ language difficulties in learning English. The results suggested that the students have different perceptions of their necessities, wants, and lacks. The findings also demonstrated the students’ learning needs including the learning inputs, teaching-learning procedures, the teacher’s and learners’ role, as well as the teachinglearning settings.

Authors: Mudra Heri , Aini Nurul
Published: June 2022

The present study aimed to examine the attitudes and types of metaphorical perceptions of male and female prospective English teachers (PETs) towards their English learning process. Elicitation sheet with the prompt â€œEnglish learning is (like) â€¦ because â€¦â€ was used to collect the data. The data were qualitatively analyzed by listing, naming, categorizing, and determining the metaphors. The results of the elicited metaphors reveal that male and female PETsâ€™ attitudes towards English learning process include positive, negative, ambivalent, and neutral perceptions. Both male and female PETs viewed English learning in different attitudes. Male PETs generated more negative attitudes than the positive ones, while female PETs produced more positive attitudes than the negative ones. The findings also show that the metaphors were categorized into several types such as enjoyable activity, construction work, movement/journey, experience, planting/farming, exploration, and things. These types of metaphor imply the importance of the socio-cultural background of the learners. In conclusion, the metaphors help to determine appropriate strategies, methods, and materials for English teaching and learning.

Authors: Zakharova O. I. , Burova O. A. , Toropova N. N. , Iashin I. V. , Blokhin A. A.
Published: June 2022

Avian influenza viruses are epidemiologically dangerous zoonotic pathogens that can cause high morbidity and mortality both in animals and in humans. Reassortment and antigenic shift in the genome of the avian influenza virus draw to a change in its properties: host range, virulence, and other factors. The natural reservoir of avian influenza is wild waterfowl, which can transmit the virus to poultry through the direct contact. The exchange of antigenic sites of viruses occurs over several months in the traditional wintering grounds of migratory birds. Avian influenza viruses with altered genes as a result of reassortment, circulating in wild migratory birds, carry epizootic threat of spread of the disease to the unharmed areas. In this review of highly pathogenic avian influenza there has been analyzed the epizootic situation and possible vaccination strategies that exist in the world. The spatial trend in the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation was determined using the GIS tool, Median Center in the working environment of the ArcGIS Pro software. Based on the review of selected literature, it has been established that vaccination itself is not considered a solution to the problem. Without monitoring systems, stringent biosecurity and population reduction in case of outbreaks, the control and eradication of the disease is impossible. The decision to vaccinate against avian influenza should be made on a case-by-case basis, weighing all the risks of further spread and mutation of the virus. All industrial poultry enterprises exporting the products must operate in a closed mode and be excepted from the list of vaccination.

Published: June 2022

Productivity of any crop is the potential of the variety when interacting with environmental factors, and especially meteorological ones. Losses due to unfavorable conditions in some years can be up to 50-65,0 %. The purpose of the work was to identify how the productivity of Sudan grass green mass varied through the years with different meteorological conditions, which factors had the greatest effect on it. The study was carried out in 2012-2021 in the conditions of Rostov region. The soil of the plot was ordinary carbonate chernozem. The object of the study was the Sudan grass of Alisa variety, introduced into the State List of Breeding Achievements in 2019. Differences in sowing dates (I-II decades of May) had no effect on green mass productivity and the time of grain maturing. The Sudan grass green mass productivity varied significantly from 36 t/ha to 43 t/ha through the years of study. The year of 2021 was more favorable both in temperature and moisture supply for the formation of the first cut of green mass, and the year of 2018 was favorable for the formation of the second one. The first cut of the green mass was more important and productive. The second cut productivity in 2018 was 84.5 % of the first cut and 45.8 % of the amount of both cuts. In 2021, 35,0 % of the first cut and 26.5 % of the total productivity. The correlation analysis has confirmed that green mass productivity has a close positive correlation with the amount of precipitation (r = 0.79) and a mean negative one with the average air temperature during the vegetation period (r = -0.59).
Ecological regimes of soils of the Novgorod region drained by open drainage
Authors: Balun O. V. , Shkodina E. P. , Yakovleva V. A. , Zhukova S. Yu.
Published: June 2022

In the natural and climatic conditions of the Novgorod region, the ecological regimes of lands drained by various open drainage structures were studied: channels through 70 m (control), runoff hollows in combination with the strips of cultivation, reclamation, and closed drainage. During the operation (1992-2021) of open drainage structures, the agrochemical state of soils changed: the exchange acidity decreased; the humus content increased by 2-3 %, with the exception of a combination of hollows with a reclamation strip (a decrease of 1.5 %); the content of mobile phosphorus and potassium decreased. The formation of groundwater regimes and moisture reserves on drainage systems depends on meteorological conditions, which in the last 5 years have been very diverse: from slightly arid (2020, HTC = 1.1) to excessively moist (2017, HTC = 2.65). The systems of runoff hollows in combination with the reclamation strip provided the lowest groundwater level, while in an extremely wet year they did not rise into the arable horizon. The most favorable moisture regime of the root-inhabited soil layer in excessively humid 2017 and subsequent years was noted on systems of runoff hollows with closed drainage in combination with reclamation strips. During dry periods, which are usually June-July, a lack of moisture in the root layer of the soil was observed on experimental systems of runoff hollows in combination with cultivation and reclamation strips. The most acute moisture deficiency in these periods (0.45 full capacity) was noted on systems combining runoff hollows with cultivation strips. The most favorable soil moisture regime (0.65-0.85 full capacity) was in the combination of hollows with closed drainage and a reclamation strip. The formed new ecological regimes of the soils drained by the hollow-strip method had a significant impact on the hay yield of perennial grasses (Phleum pratense, Festuca pratensis). The increase in yield compared to the control averaged 0.3-0.6 t/ha over 5 years.

Published: June 2022

The research was carried out in a long-term stationary experiment, launched in 1978 on light gray forest soil in the conditions of the Nizhny Novgorod region. In 2020-2021, the effectiveness of various doses of mineral fertilizers (N0P0K0, N15P40K60, N30P80K120, N45P120K180) was studied against the background of liming when laying the experiment (in doses 0; 0.5;1.0;1.5; 2.0; 2.5 of hydrolytic acidity) on the yield of meadow clover Martum of the 1st and 2nd years of use. It has been established that the studied lime doses introduced in 1978, by August 2021 had not affected the change in agrochemical parameters of light gray forest soil (acidity, content of mobile forms of phosphorus and potassium, humus) and the yield of meadow clover of the 1st and 2nd year of use. A long-term use (1978-2021) of single and double doses of mineral fertilizers did not provide the accumulation of humus, mobile forms of phosphorus and potassium as compared to their initial content in arable layer of light gray forest soil. Increased content of mobile forms of phosphorus and potassium (Р2О5 per 34.1 mg/kg, К2О per 22.3 mg/kg) was observed by long-term application of three-fold doses of mineral fertilizers. Application of mineral fertilizers in a dose of N45P120K180 enabled to obtain 36.5 and 37.9 t/ha of green mass during the 1st and the 2nd year of use and the highest total yield of 74.4 t/ha that is 12.0-22.2 t/ha higher than the control and all the rest variants of mineral fertilizers application.
Substantiation of the main design parameters of the separation chamber of the pneumatic separator using various methods for calculating particle trajectories in the pneumoseparating channel
Authors: Burkov A. I. , Glushkov A. L. , Lazykin V. A. , Mokiev V. Yu.
Published: June 2022

The article presents a study of the influence of methods for calculating particle trajectories in the pneumatic separation channel (PSC) on the design parameters of the separation chamber (length and height of the exit window), completed in 2013-2021. The field of air flow velocities and trajectories of spring wheat seed material components in the separation chamber of fractioning pneumatic seed separator was constructed. The initial data for the calculation were the information obtained earlier when calculating the trajectories of particles in the PSC by various methods. The location at the outlet of the channel, the value and direction of the particle velocity vectors were determined by computer modelling using the Solidworks Flow Simulation software package and two experimental and theoretical methods. They took into account the real velocity field of the air flow with and without grain load. The obtained values of the design parameters are compared with the results of experimental studies of the separation chamber. It should be noted that the methods of calculating the trajectories of grain impurity particles have a significant impact on the length of the separation chamber and the height of the exit window. The maximum length of the separation chamber of 0.75 m will be required for computer modelling of the velocity field in the PSC. Much smaller values of 0.50 m and 0.45 m will be required when calculating the trajectories of particles in the PSC using the velocity field obtained by experimental and theoretical methods. During the experimental study of the separation chamber during the cleaning of wheat seeds, the optimal length of the separation chamber was determined to be 0.55 m with an exit window height of 0.30 m. Thus, the values of the design parameters of the separation chamber obtained by experimental and theoretical methods are the closest to experimental data, which makes it possible to recommend them for use at the design stage of pneumatic separators.
Using generalizability theory to investigate the variability and reliability of EFL composition scores by human raters and e-rater
Authors: SARI Elif , HAN Turgay
Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT: Using the generalizability theory (G-theory) as a theoretical framework, this study aimed at investigating the variability and reliability of holistic scores assigned by human raters and e-rater to the same EFL essays. Eighty argumentative essays written on two different topics by tertiary level Turkish EFL students were scored holistically by e-rater and eight human raters who received a detailed rater training. The results showed that e-rater and human raters assigned significantly different holistic scores to the same EFL essays. G-theory analyses revealed that human raters assigned considerably inconsistent scores to the same EFL essays although they were given a detailed rater training and more reliable ratings were attained when e-rater was integrated in the scoring procedure. Some implications are given for EFL writing assessment practices.
New genres and new approaches: teaching and assessing product pitches from a multimodal perspective in the ESP classroom
Authors: Edo Marzá Nuria , Fortanet Gómez Inmaculada
Published: June 2022

One of the most innovative genres in today’s business communication is the product pitch (PP), mainly characterised by its multisemiotic nature (Daly & Davy, 2016), which makes it essential to take a multimodal approach to the analysis and teaching of this genre (Tamarit & Skorczynska, 2014; Valeiras-Jurado, 2017). However, despite the increasing importance of this oral genre in the business field, little research has been conducted on the teaching of PPs to business ESP students. The purpose of this paper is therefore to present an innovative pedagogical model consisting of a learner-led genre-based pedagogy based on a teaching-learning cycle that fosters critical thinking and multimodal awareness (AUTHOR, 2019). Following the four stages of the cycle proposed, and with the constant scaffolding of the lecturer in the initial stages, a group of tertiary business students were requested to decode the multimodal ensembles of a YouTube PP to subsequently create their own PPs. These samples were assessed multimodally by the rest of the class (peer review) and by the teacher using an “all-mode-inclusive” rubric. This innovative pedagogical approach to a new genre increased students’ motivation and multimodal awareness, surpassing the traditionally exclusively language-bound teaching and assessment of ESP.
La adquisición de las combinaciones en español L3: El desarrollo en contextos multilingües
Authors: Lu Hui-Chuan
Published: June 2022

There has been little research on the acquisition of Spanish collocation, particularly concerning collocation combinations in a multilingual context. Therefore, this corpus-based study attempted to provide new insights for learning Spanish collocation. The research questions are: (1) What are the usage and error tendencies in acquiring Spanish combinations by learners of L3 Spanish? (2) How do the contrasts between L3 Spanish and the learners’ prior languages (L1 Chinese and L2 English) play a role in acquiring L3 Spanish collocation? The results showed a developmental sequence moving from N-Adj, V-N, to Adj-N combinations. Furthermore, the results of the qualitative analysis suggested that most errors were associated with the learners’ L1 (Chinese) and L2 (English). On the other hand, lexical errors might be attributed to the formal similarity between L2 English and L3 Spanish and the meaning transfer between Chinese (L1) and English (L2). Finally, the analysis suggested the similarity among the three languages in form, and the connections among the linguistic features played an essential role in learning L3 Spanish combinations.

Published: June 2022

Cet article vise à contribuer à la compréhension du phénomène d’influence translinguistique, et plus précisément à celle de l’acquisition de la troisième langue chez les enfants iraniens de 8 à 13 ans. Nous avons cherché à repérer le rôle de chacune des langues déjà acquises dans les productions orales de 30 enfants-apprenants iraniens avec le persan comme la première langue et l’anglais comme la deuxième langue ; et qui étaient également en cours d’acquérir le français. À travers des entretiens, en nous basant sur les typologies de Williams et Hammarberg (1998), Cenoz (2001) et Trévisiol (2006), nous avons analysé les productions orales des apprenants interviewés. Les résultats montrent que la première langue joue à la fois deux rôles instrumental et fournisseur, pourtant, la deuxième langue a uniquement le rôle de fournisseur.

How to keep the current flowing? factors contributing to the longevity of directed motivational currents
Authors: Pietluch Arkadiusz
Published: June 2022

Directed motivational currents (DMCs) depict long-term, heightened engagement in pursuit of a highly desired future identity. While the core theoretical underpinnings of the construct are well-established and it is possible to observe a growing research interest in inducing real-time currents, especially in the foreign language (FL) context, little is known regarding the specific factors contributing to the untypical longevity of DMCs, as the currents are believed to cover timescales of months or even years. This mixed-method study is therefore an attempt to fill the void in the DMC-related research. Following the initial phase of the investigation, which sought to identify prospective DMC cases amongst 247 students of English as a foreign language (EFL) at private language schools, thematic analysis was applied to scrutinise the exact nature of DMC experiences identified. The investigation showed that the flow of motivational energy within the DMC superstructure might be occasionally obstructed by both mental and physical exhaustion and, thus, re-triggering mechanisms are required to maintain the intensity of motivational surges. Two primary factors contributing to the longevity of DMCs were identified, namely the growth of learners’ agency and the re-emergence of one’s superordinate goal.

Objective — to study the dynamics of changes in the structure of the lungs in patients with a complicated course of non-hospital viral pneumonia COVID-19 by programmatic processing of computed tomography (CT) scan data and to determine the features of changes to predict its course.
Materials and methods. The dynamics of these CT scan 70 patients for non-hospital pneumonia of viral etiology (COVID-19) was analyzed. The diagnosis of COVID-19 was established in accordance with the current protocols for the treatment of coronavirus disease. CT scan was performed on the scanner Aquilion TSX-101A Tochiba (Japan) with the recording of the results on digital media with their subsequent software processing.
Results and discussion. Of the 70 patients for non-hospital pneumonia of viral etiology (COVID-19), 21 patients (15 men and 6 women) were diagnosed with «disappearing lung syndrome», which accounted for 30 % of all those examined. Cases of the formation of massive fibrous post-inflammatory changes were not detected.We performed software processing of CT data of patients’ OGC in dynamics during 6—12 months. On average, control CT scans of the OGC were performed every 2—3 months. At the same time we determined the peculiarities of densitometric indexes dynamics, according to which we could predict the course of non-hospital pneumonia of viral etiology (COVID-19).
Conclusions. Given the high percentage of diagnosis of «disappearing lung syndrome» caused by the autoimmune process in patients with complicated non-hospital viral pneumonia COVID-19, it is necessary to develop methods for its treatment. In order to diagnose complications, prevent them and predict the course of severe forms of pneumonia pneumonia COVID-19, it is necessary to conduct a CT scan in dynamics with densitometric examinations of the pulmonary parenchyma.

Objective — to analyze in our own experience the possibility of using minimally invasive video-assisted resection surgery in the surgical treatment of patients with chemoresistant tuberculosis.

Materials and methods. An analysis of the results was conducted application of 79 VATS resections in patients with HRTB for the period from 2008 to 2022. When selecting candidates for VATS resection, preference was given to patients with limited peripheral processes.

Results and discussion. Among the operated patients in almost half of the cases a typical VATS-lobectomy was performed — 40 (50.6 %). The most common typical upper lobectomy on the right was 14 (16.8 %) observations. In second place in terms of frequency are segmental resections: typical segmentec­tomy — 16 (19.2 %); atypical segmentectomy — 11 (13.2 %) observations. Other types of VATS resections were performed less frequently: pulmonectomy — 5 (6 %), lower whitebectomy — 3 (3.6 %), combined resection of the lower lobe and S6 — 4 (4.8 %) observations.The most frequently studied patients were operated on for tuberculosis 36 (43.2 %), on the second stage of the operation were performed for pulmonary FCT — 33 (39.6 %) observations. There were 4 (4.8 %) patients operated on for cerotic tuberculosis. Pulmonary FCT — 33 (39.6 %). Operations for pneumothorax, hemoptysis and HRT complicated by aspergilloma were performed 2 (2.4 %) in each of the nosologies. The results show that the indications for VATS operations were limited forms of HRTB.

Conclusions. VATS-resections of the lung lobe are minimally invasive and promising treatments that provide anatomical preparation of the elements of the root of the lung. They can be considered as an alternative to open lobectomy. Extensive use of this method is hampered by severe pulmonary fibrosis and the connective tissue process, due to the long inflammatory process and long-term medical treatment, and the cost of endoscopic instruments.

The article shows the possibility of applying radiomics in the processing of chest CT data in the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis. Currently, a subjective method based on the knowledge and experience of a radiologist is used to process CT images. A new approach to CT image analysis can fundamentally change the diagnostic process. Its essence is to create mathematical models and computer algorithms that take medical images as input and produce pathophysiological features of tissues.Dragonfly software, provided free of charge by OBYECT RESERCH SYSTEMS (ORS), Montreal, Canada, is used for CT slice analysis, which enables segmentation, mathematical and statistical processing of images, construction of ordinary and segmented histograms. To work with the program, dicom - CT files are transformed into raster files (Tiff, Jpeg, Raw) and further analysis of CT slices is performed by grayscale gradations (behind image pixels, not behind dicom file voxels). It should be emphasized that the grayscale analysis correlates with the Hounsfield units.It has been shown that based on the data of pathomorphological examination of the affected tissue, it is impossible to determine the difference between chemoresistant and susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis.Processing of CT data with the construction of conventional and segmental histograms using Dragonfly software tools makes it possible to identify pathophysiological features of tissues in the diagnosis of sensitive and chemoresistant pulmonary tuberculosis. Further research is needed to identify patterns and differences in the determination of densities in the diagnosis of sensitive and chemoresistant pulmonary tuberculosis.

The study was carried out to evaluate the combining ability and heterosis of seven parents and their 21 half-diallel F2 populations for yield and quality traits during the 2013-14 season in the randomized complete block design with three replications. Significant differences were observed among the genotypes, GCA (general combining ability) and SCA (specific combining ability) effects for all traits, except spike length. The best combiner parents were identified as Esperia and Pehlivan for grain yield, and Flamura85, Aldane and Selimiye for quality traits because of significant GCA and per se performance. The ranges of best parent heterosis were -12.71 to 8.23% for plant height, -15.46 to 8.36% for spike length, -16.62 to 24.80% for number of grains per spike, -23.61 to 36.50% for grain weight per spike, -17.13 to 8.84% for harvest index and -44.26 to 15.83 for grain yield, -17.61 to 8.38% for thousand grain weight, -18.55 to 8.44% for wet gluten content, -33.80 to 24.78% for gluten index, -20.24 to 15.23% for Zeleny sedimentation value, -15.58 to 10.00% for quality index and -8.96 to 6.87 for grain protein content. The three (Slm/Phl, F85/Slm and F85/Esp) and seven (F85/Phl, Sb/Fs, Fs/Slm, Esp/Slm, Fs/Phl, Esp/Sb and Sb/Slm) of F2 populations are offered a good opportunity in base material for selection of potential because of significant SCA effects and best parent heterosis for grain yield and quality traits respectively.

In this study, functional and numerical response tests, which are important components in the selection of biological control agent, were carried out. In functional response trials, the amount of food consumed, attack rate (a) and handling time (Th) were calculated for each developmental period, depending on the number of preys given after 24 hours. The obtained results were evaluated with the Holling. In numerical response experiments, the development of the predator insect was examined depending on the number of preys given in certain numbers (5, 10, 20, 40 and 80) and the data were recorded. This phase of the trials continued until the individuals died. At this stage of the trials, the reproductive response of the predator on the aphid and the prey use efficiency were calculated. All of the productions and trials were carried out in climate rooms with a temperature of 27±1 °C, 65±5% RH. Experiments were carried out with 50 replications for each growth period and prey densities. According to the results obtained in the functional response trials, it was determined that the development periods with the highest productivity were the fourth larval and adult stages. When the results obtained from the numerical response experiments were evaluated, it was observed that the reproductive response increased with the increase of the prey given to H. variegata. Considering all the data obtained as a result of the study, it was concluded that H. variegata is effective on M. rosae and can be used in the control of this pest.

El uso terapéutico del aceite de “cannabis” es una problemática social que pone en tensión aspectos legales, sanitarios, científicos y culturales. La dificultad en el acceso genera un vacío aprovechado por el mercado ilegal, al que recurren pacientes y familiares para mejorar su salud y calidad de vida. Estos aceites, de composición química desconocida, se emplean sin un seguimiento terapéutico. Un equipo interdisciplinario de la UNC se involucró en esta problemática con el objetivo de aportar elementos para su caracterización en nuestro medio. Metodología: Estudio observacional-descriptivo y transversal (aprobado por el CIEIS-HNC-UNC): entrevistas a pacientes/cuidadores mayores de edad que usaban el aceite (2019). Estudio experimental: análisis de muestras de aceites de los entrevistados para determinar su contenido de cannabinoides (THC y CBD), mediante HPLC. Resultados: Se realizaron 37 entrevistas y analizaron 48 muestras. El 73% fueron adultos y adultos-mayores. El 79% empiezan a usar el aceite por recomendación de parientes/amigos o por iniciativa propia, principalmente por falta de efectividad de otras terapias (54%) y por búsqueda de alternativas (33%). El 84% lo percibe efectivo (moderado-muy efectivo) y el 78% no manifestó eventos adversos. Usos principales: epilepsia refractaria 27% y artritis/artrosis 24%. El 15% de las muestras no presentaron contenidos cuantificables de CBD y THC, y el 67% presentó THC sin CBD. El contenido de cannabinoides cuantificables fue muy bajo. Conclusiones: Se obtuvo una aproximación sobre el uso terapéutico del aceite de “cannabis” en Córdoba y su calidad. Se observó discrepancia entre la efectividad percibida y el bajo contenido de cannabinoides detectados.

La granulomatosis eosinofílica con poliangeítis, anteriormente conocida como síndrome de Churg-Strauss, es una patología poco frecuente que pertenece al grupo de enfermedades caracterizadas por vasculitis necrotizante de vasos sanguíneos sistémicos de pequeño y mediano calibre. La afectación cardiovascular sintomática ocurre entre un 27% a un 47% de los casos de Churg-Strauss, siendo una de las manifestaciones más graves. El diagnóstico suele confirmarse con biopsia de tejido con infiltración de eosinófilos, pero con la reciente inclusión de la resonancia cardíaca, podemos prescindir de ella.

El diagnóstico precoz es importante debido a que el tratamiento oportuno suele asociarse con mejoría del cuadro.

Authors: Cófreces Pedro , Ofman Silvia Deborah , Estay Julieta A , Hermida Paula Daniela
Published: June 2022

Introducción: La Enfermedad de Parkinson (EP) es la enfermedad neurodegenerativa más común, después del Alzheimer. El aumento de su prevalencia se debe a una combinación de factores. En 2016 se registraron 6.1 millones casos y se cree que este valor se duplicará para el 2050, por lo que es considerado un problema de salud pública.

Objetivo: Realizar una revisión de la literatura acerca de los aspectos psicosociales asociados a la EP, ya que éstos tienen gran importancia como posibles marcadores prodrómicos de la enfermedad.

Metodología: Se realizó una búsqueda del material bibliográfico generado en los últimos 15 años, utilizando las bases de datos: PubMed, SciELO, Dialnet y Redalyc.

Conclusión: Las investigaciones sobre la EP centran fundamentalmente su interés en las características, síntomas, diagnóstico y tratamiento. Se detecta la necesidad de un mayor número de estudios científicos que obtengan evidencia respecto a las características sociodemográficas, psicosociales y geográficas de los pacientes con EP. Asimismo, se observa la necesidad de estudiar en mayor profundidad el impacto que la depresión y ansiedad puede tener sobre la enfermedad. Estos factores pueden ser determinantes tanto para el diagnóstico de la EP como también para el afrontamiento y adherencia de tratamientos que favorezcan el bienestar físico, emocional y social del paciente. Los estudios sobre la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud son importantes en este sentido.
SARS-CoV-2 infection and seizures: the perfect storm
Authors: Tsai Carolyn , Wilson Susan E. , Rubinos Clio
Published: June 2022

Seizures have been increasingly identified as a neurologic manifestation of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. They may be symptomatic due to systemic infections, as a result of direct central nervous system (CNS) invasion, or occur in response to inflammatory reactions to the virus. It is possible that proinflammatory molecules released in response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can lead to hyperexcitability and epileptogenesis, similar to infections caused by other neurotrophic viruses. Cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) in patients with COVID-19 and seizures is negative for SARS-CoV-2 (PCR) in the majority of patients, but has been found to be positive for proinflammatory molecules like IL-6, IL-8, and anti-neuronal autoantibodies. Electroencephalogram (EEG) in COVID-19 patients are nonspecific. However, in the encephalopathic and critically ill subpopulation, EEG is essential in detecting nonconvulsive seizures and status epilepticus which is associated with increased overall mortality in COVID-19 patients. Thus, as encephalopathy is often the only CNS symptom evidenced in patients with nonconvulsive seizures, more judicious use of continuous EEG in encephalopathic COVID-19 patients should be considered. This would facilitate earlier detection and treatment of seizures in this population, which would ultimately improve outcomes. Further research into the onset and potential for development of seizures and epilepsy in patients with COVID-19 is needed.
