Cékitűzés: A neoadjuváns hormonkezelés hatékonyságának vizsgálata a lokálisan előrehaladott magas rizikójú prosztatatumorok esetében végzett radikális prostatectomiák során. Módszer: A tanulmányban a 1996.01.01 és 2018.01.01. között, a klinikailag lokálisan előrehaladott magas rizikójú prosztatadaganat miatt radikális prostatectomián átesett 105 beteg adatai kerültek feldolgozásra. Az 1. csoportba (n: 37) tartozó betegek a műtét előtt neoadjuváns hormonkezelést kaptak. A 2. csoportba sorolt betegek (n: 68) nem részesültek hormonkezelésben. Az 1. csoportban az átlagos életkor 64,1±6,8 év, míg az átlagos PSA-szint 31,5 ng/ml. A 2. csoportban az átlagos életkor 63,7±6,3 év, míg az átlagos PSA-szint 20,5 ng/ml volt. Valamennyi esetben a műtét előtt elvégzett képalkotó-vizsgálat lokálisan előrehaladott tumort mutatott. Eredmények: A szövettani vizsgálat az 1. csoportban, 8 esetben (21,6%), míg a 2. csoportban, 41 alkalommal (60,2%) igazolt lokálisan előrehaladott (pT3) daganatot (p=0,073). Margin-pozitivitás az 1. csoportban, 8 esetben (21,6%), míg a 2. csoportban, 28 betegben (41,7%) fordult elő (p=0,043). A medián 58 hónapos utánkövetés alatt az 1. csoportban biokémiai progressziót 8 (21,6%), lokális recidívát 1 (2,7%), míg távoli metasztázist 3 (8,1%) betegben diagnosztizáltak. A 2. csoportban biokémiai progresszió 12 (17,6%), lokális recidíva 3 (4,4%), míg távoli metasztázis 1 (1,4%) esetben fordult elő. Ezen vizsgált mutatókban a két csoport között nem volt szignifikáns eltérés. Tumorspecifikus mortalitás egyik csoportban sem fordult elő. Következtetések: Az eredmények alapján a klinikailag lokálisan előrehaladott magas rizikójú prosztatadaganatok esetében a neoadjuváns hormonkezelés jobb, de nem szignifikánsan jobb lokális tumorkontrollt biztosított. A későbbi tumorprogresszió szempontjából a neoadjuváns hormonkezelés nem nyújtott lényeges előnyt.

Published: November 2022

Introduction. Amyloidosis is a disease associated with the extracellular deposition of insoluble protein material called amyloid. It can be acquired or hereditary, systemic or organ-limited. Nodular pulmonary amyloidosis is defined as one or more tumefactive amyloid deposits in the lungs. Outlines of cases. This study presents two cases that were hospitalized at the Institute for Pulmonary Diseases to clarify the origin of lesions detected on computed tomography (CT) scans of lung parenchyma. In the first case, in a 78-year-old woman, numerous non-calcified nodules were described on the chest CT. The patient died during hospitalization, and the autopsy revealed diffusely distributed greyish-yellow nodular lesions in the upper and middle parts of the right lung, as well as lesions in the form of partially calcified nodules in both lungs. Histological analysis of samples from macroscopically described nodules confirmed nodular amyloidosis. The second patient is male, 58 years old, who was operated on for rectal adenocarcinoma three years ago. A CT scan of the lung parenchyma shows a tumor nodule localized in the lower lobe and a nodular lesion localized in the upper lobe of the right lung. Histological analysis confirmed that the lesion from the lower lobe corresponds to the metastasis of colorectal cancer, while in the lesion from the upper lobe amyloid deposits were found. Conclusion. Pulmonary nodular amyloidosis is a rare condition, and because of the imaging similarities it is difficult to distinguish it from malignant nodules in the lung parenchyma. Therefore, as a part of routine practice, a definitive diagnosis of amyloidosis needs to be confirmed by tissue biopsy.

Published: November 2022

Objective

Considering that misfit is a significant predictor of the clinical success of indirect restorations, the objective of this study was to evaluate the marginal and internal misfit of two computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) RMC ceramic materials used as occlusal veneers (OVs) of different thicknesses.

Methods and Materials

A CAD model of a mandibular first molar was obtained and OV preparations 0.5-, 1.0-, and 1.5-mm thick were modeled and milled in two different materials (n=10/group): resin nanoceramic (RNC) and polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PICN). Using the same CAD model, tooth preparations were milled in fiber-reinforced epoxy resin (n=20/thickness). The marginal and internal misfit of the restorations was assessed by X-ray microtomography. The measurements of the marginal gap (MG) and absolute marginal discrepancy were performed in two locations on each slice, whereas internal gap (IG) measurements were performed at ten locations on each slice. The data obtained were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance and Tukey post-hoc tests (α=0.05).

Results

No significant effect was attributable to the material type or material–thickness interaction for the MG, absolute marginal discrepancy (AMD), or IG (p>0.05). However, the thickness significantly affected the IG of the restorations (p<0.05). CAD/CAM RNC and PICN systems presented similar MG and AMD for OVs 0.5-, 1.0-, and 1.5-mm thick. However, the IG varied between thicknesses.

The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has increased in recent decades reflecting the global obesity pandemic and is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in children and adolescents worldwide. “NAFLD” is a spectrum of diseases that can range from isolated macrovesicular hepatocellular steatosis to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) with or without fibrosis, to cirrhosis of the liver. For the pediatric population, in particular, the “Pediatric nonalcoholic fatty liver disease” or “Pediatric fatty liver disease” or “Pediatric NAFLD” terminology is acceptable, which reflects the genesis of the disease. The manifestation of the disease in childhood strongly indicates its unfavorable phenotype. The main effective therapeutic interventions for NAFLD are dietary and lifestyle changes, although long-term effectiveness is limited by poor compliance. Advances in the development and validation of non-invasive biomarkers and imaging techniques will facilitate the diagnosis of pediatric NAFLD and facilitate the development of effective therapies.

Published: November 2022

The purpose of the research was to clarify the clinical and pathogenetic features of psychogenic affective (depressive) disorders and their role in the pathogenesis of a number of somatic disorders in children and adolescents treated in a pediatric hospital. Materials and methods of the research: 1164 patients with various psychosomatic disorders (mainly gastroenterological, dermatological, motor, endocrine and algic) aged from 1 year and 9 months till 17 years old were observed using the clinical and psychopathological method with the determination of the nature and severity of mental disorders. Additionally, the anamnestic, clinical, paraclinical (ECG, EchoCG, CIG, EEG, EchoEG, REG, Doppler) and clinical-psychological - psychometric (Hamilton depression scale and Spielberger-Khanin test for situational and personal anxiety), as well as mathematical and statistical methods were used. Results: based on the observation, a higher incidence of psychogenic depression (71.2%) in children and adolescents with psychosomatic disorders was found, as well as a greater number of psychosocial and slightly less biological risk factors that determine the occurrence and development of depressive and somatic disorders. There was a predominance of mild depression in the form of repetitive short-term negative emotional reactions that make it difficult to diagnose depressive conditions with more frequent anxiety-asthenic and anxiety symptoms and rare anxiety-dreary, asthenic and melancholy vymi manifestations against the background of the prevailing manifestations of sanguine temperament. Anxiety and depressive disorders were diagnosed rather frequently. Conclusion: the data obtained contribute to the optimization of both psychopharmaco- and somatotherapy of this group of patients with the possibility of the use of phytotherapy at early age stages.

Among the modified risk factors for chronic kidney disease hyperhomocysteinemia (HHC) and hyperuricemia (HU) play an important role in the development of the cardiorenal continuum. The purpose of the research was to study the relationship between HHC and the functional state of the kidneys in children with impaired purine metabolism. Materials and methods used: a single-center one-stage (cross-sectional) study was conducted in 54 pediatric patients aged 9 to 15 y/o with purine metabolism disorders (in the form of isolated HU or in combination with hyperuricosuria) in Feb. 2017 - March 2021. The level of homocysteine in the blood serum was determined by enzyme immunoassay. Evaluated clearance, excreted fraction, filtered volume and reabsorption of uric acid; the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was calculated. The two groups were distinguished: the [main] Group 1 of 26 children with HHC; and the [comparison] Group 2 of 28 children with normal homocysteine levels. Results: the frequency of diagnosis of HHC among the examined was 47.8%, which is almost 5 times higher than in the population. In the main group, the analysis of Spearman's rank correlation revealed a positive statistically significant correlation between the level of homocysteine and uric acid: Rs=0.32, p=0.048. In this group, the clearance of uric acid, its excreted fraction and filtered volume were statistically significantly lower, while reabsorption and GFR were higher relative to the comparison group. The daily excretion of uric acid directly correlated statistically significantly with its clearance (Rs=0.71, p<0.001) and excreted fraction (Rs=0.66, p=0.004) and inversely significantly correlated with the level of its reabsorption (Rs=- 0.66, p=0.004). Statistically significant direct correlation of blood homocysteine and creatinine levels (Rs=0.38, p=0.020) and inverse correlation with uric acid excretion (Rs=-0.38, p=0.020) were obtained. Conclusion: in children with impaired purine metabolism, HHC is associated with the early formation of tubular dysfunction, which is evidenced by a statistically significant decrease in the clearance of uric acid, its excreted fraction and filtered volume. The increase in GFR in this case probably reflects the formation of hyperfiltration as the initial stage of metabolic renal damage.
The Criminalization of the Cannabis Plant: Decolonizing the Harmful Enforcement
Authors: Brown Angelo
Published: November 2022

The paper examines the history and current state of cannabis-related laws and enforcement and argues for reformed policies. The history of cannabis laws has been used to control, punish, and oppress marginalized groups of people and reinforce the power structures that were established during colonial rule. The discriminatory policies have disproportionately especially hurt Black, Brown, and Indigenous people with harsh punishment for those who use the cannabis plant which has various medicinal, social, religious, cultural, and textile uses. The strict laws that criminalize cannabis harm society by enforcing an environment that empowers violent organized crime groups and pharmaceutical companies who profit off cannabis being illegal. Cannabis reform including decriminalization and legalization may be a viable option for many nations to consider as a harm reduction strategy.

HWDI (Indonesian Women with Disabilities Association) Kudus Regency is a community for women with disabilities located in the holy city. The problem faced is that women with disabilities have difficulty taking care of themselves, especially getting a job. Indonesia produces 3 million tonnes of coconut per year. Coconut shell waste is 360 thousand tons per year (quoted from Kagama.Co, Bulaksumur). If this condition is allowed, the waste will continue to mount, which of course will trigger environmental pollution and health problems. One of the roles of overcoming this condition is by recycling coconut shell waste and processing it into handicraft products that can be used again and even have high economic value. Through this activity the PKM team conducted training on making handicraft products by utilizing coconut shell waste, marketing training for the handicraft products produced and empowering marketing and mentoring for the sale of handicraft products to HWDI members.

Actualmente, se ha identificado la necesidad de emprender acciones que faciliten la conservación de la biodiversidad y la recuperación de áreas degradadas, al mismo tiempo que se promueva el desarrollo sostenible. El cultivo de tejidos vegetales in vitro (CTV), permite producir un gran número de individuos, en tiempo y espacios reducidos. A través de la técnica de semillas sintéticas (SS), el CTV posibilita la propagación y conservación ex situ de recursos fitogenéticos. El monte negro (Bougainvillea spinosa (Cav.) Heimerl.), es una especie del monte, nativa de Argentina. Se evaluó la propagación de B. spinosa a través del CTV, para contribuir a su conservación y uso sustentable. Se estudió la germinación in vitro de las semillas, la expresión morfogénica de explantes juveniles y el almacenamiento de SS de esta especie. Se alcanzó una germinación de 98,67% y los parámetros germinativos evaluados fueron comparables a los de otras especies (Energía germinativa:61,33%; tiempo medio de germinación:1,79 días; índice de vigor:76,80). La formación de callo fue la respuesta morfogénica más frecuente, aún en medios libres de reguladores de crecimiento y sólo se logró un 10% de enraizamiento en medios suplementado con IBA 5mg/l. Por otra parte, se logró la conversión de las SS luego del almacenamiento en frío (13,33%). Se obtuvo, por primera vez, una metodología de germinación in vitro eficiente, que permitió establecer los primeros avances en CTV y en la aplicación de SS de B. spinosa para el desarrollo de nuevos protocolos de propagación y conservación ex situ de la especie.

Pineapple (Ananas comosus) is a horticultural species of the Bromeliaceae family of high socioeconomic interest, widely cultivated around the world. The multiplication of pineapple seedlings in the field can be time-consuming, requiring a significant labor investment. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of continuous and temporary immersion systems in the micropropagation scale-up of the species. Shoots were obtained from explants subcultured in flasks with gelled culture medium and without gas exchange. The shoots were transferred to liquid MS medium supplemented with 2mM NAA, and 4mM BAP, and cultivated in four different devices: sealed flasks, flasks with semipermeable gas membranes, RITA®, and twin-flasks. After 45 days of cultivation, plant growth, fresh mass increment, the stomatal density of the abaxial surface of the leaves, the maximum quantum yield of the photosystem II, and contents of chlorophyll and carotenoids were analyzed. Significant differences were observed in plant growth, stomatal density, and contents of chlorophyll and carotenoids. The twin-flasks and RITA® devices revealed better results in morphological parameters, such as plant growth and stomatal density, while the treatments in sealed flasks and with membrane stood out in the chlorophyll content.
Festivales de poesía en Argentina: territorios sonoros y producción de deseo
Authors: Garione Flavia
Published: November 2022

Este artículo se propone como un acercamiento preliminar a la dimensión sonora de la poesía argentina contemporánea y a los espacios en los que circula. Comenzar a pensar en el sonido de la poesía, en las preguntas sustanciales de cómo suena un poeta o un festival, invita inmediatamente a preguntarse por los territorios que las voces construyen. En este sentido, para Brandon LaBelle (2010), el sonido genera un conocimiento auditivo que se despliega como un evento espacio-temporal. Al mismo tiempo, abre un campo de interacción, para convertirse en un canal, un fluido, un flujo de voz que puede forjar una micro-geografía del momento. El paradigma auditivo podría ser, de esta manera, un modelo significativo para pensar y experimentar la condición artística y las puestas en voz poéticas en el marco de los festivales de poesía argentinos.
A 150 años de la publicación de El gaucho Martín Fierro
Authors: Ortale María Celina
Published: November 2022

Se cumplen 150 años de la publicación de El gaucho Martín Fierro, el primer éxito literario del país. Inicialmente lo memorizaron los paisanos, lo interpretaron actores en los circos y teatros populares y lo recitaron los payadores en versiones que continuaban el derrotero biográfico de los hijos de Fierro. Desde las conferencias en el Odeón la élite lo adoptó como símbolo de argentinidad, ingresó a los programas académicos y su historia fue analizada, reescrita y reapropiada por destacados artistas e intelectuales. En este comienzo del siglo XXI las reelaboraciones literarias y las resignificaciones críticas continúan. Y también las reediciones, teniendo en cuenta la reciente edición de las Obras Completas de José Hernández, producido en la UNLP y publicado por EDUVIM. Desde este contexto, preguntamos: A 150 años de la edición prínceps del poema, ¿cuáles son, para usted, los valores que explican la vigencia del Martín Fierro?

Namun, propofol terbukti memiliki insidensi POCD jangka pendek yang lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan agen anestesi lain.
Analysis of the Correlation Between Crimp Parameters and its Effect on Yarn Strength and Hairiness
Authors: Akter Shilpi , Motalab Mohammad Abdul , Helali Maksud
Published: November 2022

The objective of this paper is to analyse the correlation between crimp parameters and the effect of crimps on yarn strength and hairiness. Crimp is an essential property for natural and man-made fibres. Crimps always form with different parameters as they are very much irregular in size and shape. So, if the crimps are regular in size and shape, the end products like yarn and fabric properties will improve. Jute is a natural fibre with no natural crimp. In this research work, the gear crimping method was used as a mechanical crimping system to impart a regular size and shape of crimps into jute sliver. As a result, crimp parameters like the crimp length and crimp angle become uniform, and it is then easy to measure them. Results also showed that the crimp length is directly proportional and the crimp angle is reversely proportional to the number of crimps per unit length, and they are highly correlated. It was also shown that crimp and crimp parameters also affect the yarn strength and hairiness. In conclusion, it is revealed that with an increase in the number of crimps, the yarn strength was increased and hairiness was decreased.

This research aimed to explore the influence of fiber laying angles on the bending resistance properties of carbon fiber/foam sandwich structural composites. Four kinds of composites with the following laying angles: [0°]8, [0°/45°/90°/−45°]s, [0°/90°]4 and [45°/−45°]4 were prepared and tested in three-point bending experiments. The results obtained showed that the bending resistance performance was the best when the laying angle was [0°]8, while it was the worst when the laying angle was [45°/−45°]4. Besides, it was found that the tensile performance was the best when the fibers were arranged in the 0° direction when the strength utilisation rate was the highest. In addition, by observing the failure morphologies of the composites, the delamination and foam cracking were found in the four groups of composites. In contrast, the phenomenon of significant fracture was found on composites with a laying angle of [45°/−45°]4 only, indicating it had a poor bending resistance performance.

Authors: Ma Wen-Xiao , Hu Bing-Nan , Bai Yun
Published: November 2022

In order to endow polypropylene (PP) fabric with hydrophilic and antistatic properties, PP was grafted with polyols (sorbitol, maltitol and polyethylene glycol (PEG)) by the oxygen plasma treatment and subsequent bridging process, where ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE) and trimethylolpropanetris (2-methyl-1-aziridinepropionate) (TTMA) were used as crosslinkers. The highest grafting rate was 7.48%. The chemical structure changes were analysed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). A scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to observe the changes in polypropylene fiber surface morphology. The hydrophilicity was characterized by testing loose fiber suspension and moisture retention. The modified PP was more easily immersed in water and the desorption behaviour continued for 2h without equilibrium. The half-life of the grafted PP was reduced to 7s. The results showed that the modified PP with polyols possessed hydrophilicity and antistatic properties.
Vertical Breast Displacement in Asian Women During Exercise: influence of Bra Type, Size and Different Parts of the Breast
Authors: Sheng Xinyang , Chen Xiaona , Lake Mark John
Published: November 2022

Asian women have smaller breast sizes and greater breast density, which suggests specific research on their breast kinematics and biomechanics. To investigate vertical breast displacement of Asian women among exercise modalities (rope skipping, walking, jogging, running) in different support conditions (wearing everyday bra or sports bra), and assess the motion between different parts of the breast, seven participants were selected to participate in this study. Five infrared markers were placed on each of their left breasts, and a three-dimensional motion capture system (NDI Optotrak Investigator) was used to collect the data on vertical breast displacement during walking (5 km/h), jogging (7.5 km/h), running (10 km/h) and rope skipping (2 Hz). No significant difference was found in the vertical displacement of different parts of the breast in the two bra conditions. Also, there was significant difference in vertical breast displacement among rope skipping, jogging and running. Breast size did not significantly affect its vertical displacement. The smaller, denser breast appears to reach a threshold of vertical displacement that is similar at high severities of dynamic exercises (jogging, running and rope skipping). The results might be useful for designing special sports bras for Asian women with small breasts or rope skipping participants to improve the shock absorption function.

Focusing on the needle and backing cloth on a tufting machine type DHG801D-200, a finite element model was built using ABAQUS/Explicit software. The tufting processes, in which the individual tufting needles and 1/10 needle modules puncture the polypropylene woven and nonwoven fabrics (hot-air bonded nonwoven and thermo-calender bonded nonwoven), were simulated, respectively. Finally, the needle forces were estimated, and the deformations and stress field distribution of the backing cloth at different times were analysed.
Shrink-Proof Treatment Parameter Optimisation of Cashmere Yarn
Authors: Li Long , Wang Wei , Zhang Xian , Wu Lei , Yang Dan
Published: November 2022

Cashmere fiber has soft hand and good elasticity. However, it exhibits shrink because of its scale. In this work, cashmere yarn (38.26 tex) was treated using NaCl-KMnO4 to reduce the shrink of cashmere yarn. Orthogonal design and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation were used for optimizing treating parameters. Experimental results showed that the yarn shrink percentage of treated yarn was 0.56% which was less than that untreated yarn, and the treated yarn strength had a little drop compared with untreated yarn. The fiber scale outline of treated yarn could be observed by SEM, but the scale edge is blunt and irregular.

Authors: Wenji Zhao , Rongrong Cui , Li Niu
Published: November 2022

As one of the representative silk-woven artworks of the 20th century in China, Chinese Xiangjin brocade, well-known as “the flower of Oriental art”, draws on the essence of Sichuan brocade, Yun brocade, Song brocade, so as to form its own unique artistic style. It also takes the lead in the innovation of traditional brocade in key processes such as craftsmanship, design and jacquard, whose drawing technique is the exact core skill making it intangible cultural heritage. So far, there have been few studies on crafts and textile design in China before the 20th century or even after the reform and opening up, and rather fewer studies on the structure of Xiangjin brocade in the 20th century. This paper attempts to record and classify 1008 pieces of Xiangjin brocade in the Suzhou Silk Archive, China, as well as to find out their design features, oriental flavour, and unique weaving techniques. In addition, the cultural connotation of Xiangjin brocade as the painting medium was also put forward by analysing those brocades' historical texts, images, and style.

Published: November 2022

We study the numerical radius of bounded operators on direct sum of a family of Hilbert spaces with respect to the ℓ
p
-norm, where 1 ≤ p ≤∞. We propose a new method which enables us to prove validity of many inequalities on numerical radius of bounded operators on Hilbert spaces when the underling space is a direct sum of Hilbert spaces with ℓ
p
-norm, where 1 ≤ p ≤ 2. We also provide an example to show that some known results on numerical radius are not true for a space that is the set of bounded operators on ℓ
p
-sum of Hilbert spaces where 2 <p < ∞. We also present some applications of our results.
Le masculin et le féminin: de la mythologie universelle
aux symboles linguistiques
Authors: MOTORANU Emilia-Andreea
Published: November 2022

This article refers to the masculine-feminine opposition, starting from elements related to
mythology to linguistic symbols. Starting from Greek mythology, which depicts the
dynasty of deities, telling extraordinary adventures and which has not ceased to feed the
imagination of artists for centuries. Throughout Greek and then Roman Antiquity, these
stories evolved. Many contributions have been added, variations have been made according
to places, times and the inspiration of the authors, new interpretations have constantly
come to enrich an initial content. Bringing together elements of mythological and
sociolinguistic research, my article presents how the collective mind has established that
language, the words we use, is a cultural mirror, which symbolically fixes prejudices and
stereotypes from the past.
A Brief History of the Nekrasovite Cossacks
and an Analysis of the Cossack Heritage in Romania
Authors: ȘCHIOPU Cristian
Published: November 2022

The purpose of this paper is to make a contribution to the clarification of certain aspects
regarding the origins of the Lipovans, the Russian-speaking minority group found on the
territory of Romania, which have been long rumoured to be of Cossack origin. Despite
having emigrated and cut off contact with their native lands, they have managed to
maintain a distinct identity, culture and language over the centuries of separation from
their ancestral lands, whilst also managing to integrate well into the new cultural context
initially encountered in Ottoman-ruled Dobruja, and in Romania, later. The paper
comprises a presentation of the historical contexts that have led to the migration of Russian
speakers westwards, reaching the territory of modern-day Romania and the influence they
have exerted on said territories. It includes specific cultural and linguistic exemplifications
supporting the Cossack origin thesis of the Lipovan population of Dobruja.
The Heroine with 1001 Faces by Maria Tatar,
Liveright Publishing Corporation, USA, 2021, 368 p
Authors: NICOLAE Raluca-Marina
Published: November 2022

This book explores the notion of heroism from the feminist point of view by tackling notions
such as curiosity and knowledge, deeds (masculine approach) vs stories (feminine approach),
creativity (at the beginning limited to the domestic area) and inquisitiveness. It also reveals
uncomfortable truths about how abuse, abduction, mutilation and torture forced women
into silence. Moreover, the author points out that words have the power to resist injustice
and that feminine heroism means the courage to break the silence and start telling ‘your’
story through different channels (weavings, books, social media etc).

Background: Despite all the development in healthcare access and services, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains a challenge and still has a poor prognosis. Thus, this study aimed to retrospectively apply the American Heart Association (AHA),Advanced Life Support (ALS), and Termination of Resuscitation (TOR) 2010 criteria to all OHCA patients who arrived at the emergency department (ED) in Abu Dhabi and determine their survival outcome.
Methods: A retrospective chart review was done among OHCA patients received by a tertiary care hospital's ED in Abu Dhabi over a period of 1 year in 2018.
Results: A total of 87 patients were included; 21 (24.1%) patients met the AHA ALS TOR criteria and none of them survived To hospital discharge, with specificity and positive predictive value (PPV) of 100%. Only three patients (3.4%) who survived to be discharged from the hospital did not meet the AHA ALS TOR criteria.
Conclusion: AHA ALS TOR criteria were derived and validated; it must be applied by emergency medical services (EMS) on the field however, it could be applied on patient arrival to the ED in systems where EMS are not using it.
