INTRODUCTION: In the article, problems of use of allografts from a posthumous donor in the practice of a vascular surgeon are analyzed. The need for donor material in special clinical situations is reflected. The main stages of the historical development of the use of homografts are listed. The experience of foreign and domestic authors in reconstructive interventions on the main vessels and aorta using homografts is demonstrated in the historical perspective of the XXth century. Historical milestones in the development of tissue banks in the world are considered on an example of America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Russia. The legal regulation of use of homografts is at present especially relevant for the Russian Federation. The use of homografts as a material for reconstruction is stated to be within the legal framework of the Russian Federation. A large number of modern studies in the 21st century are carried out with choice of cadaveric homografts, both cryopreserved and of wet storage, as the material for reconstruction of the main arteries. Critical ischemia is a probable indication for the use of cadaveric homographs, but their implantation shows ambiguous results. Infection of a permanent vascular access for hemodialysis can also be considered as an indication for the use of a venous homograph as the material for access reconstruction. CONCLUSION: The donor material is currently being actively used in the practice of vascular surgery in many centers, and the hope for the diversification of clinical indications is growing, as well as for homografts finding the place in Russian clinical guidelines in future.

Authors:   Tambov State University named after G. Derzhavin, Shulgina I. V.
Published: October 2022

At the present stage of healthcare system development, due to the pandemic of the new coronavirus infection COVID-19, postgraduate education of specialists with secondary vocational medical education is undergoing significant changes. Nurses are faced with new realities of our time — training on additional professional training programs with the use of distance learning technologies. The use of distance learning in the implementation of the educational process is an effective mechanism of postgraduate education, which contributes to the formation of a high level of general and professional competencies, as well as a productive career model of a medical worker. A characteristics of nurses training in the conditions of COVID-19 was the intensification of the use of distance learning technologies, which ensures the availability of education, creating the opportunity to maintain and improve their professional level regardless of location and at a convenient time, in turn reducing the number of social contacts of students, expanding geographical boundaries, covering a large number of specialists. The specific features of medical education are that the main part of the competencies being improved and formed is inextricably linked with forms of training that requires personal presence, for example, practical manipulations and communication skills. Therefore, to implement the complex of basic characteristics of postgraduate education of secondary medical workers, elements of e-learning and distance learning technologies are introduced and used together with the development of practical skills, using the innovative approach “education–science–practice”, taking into account the modern development of advanced medical science technologies and the priority of patient safety. Distance learning technologies in postgraduate training of medical workers allow us to effectively solve current educational tasks, taking into account the needs of the healthcare system.

Published: October 2022

An important role in the speech development of preschool children is assigned to interaction with adults, since the child masters speech by imitation, repeating what he hears from adults. Currently, one of the trends in the development of countries is the process of digital transformation, affecting all spheres of society. In the era of digitalization, the nature of a child's interaction with an adult is fundamentally changing, which cannot but affect his speech and mental development. The purpose of the research is to study the specifics of interaction and the role of an adult in the speech development of preschool children during the era of digitalization. In the era of digitalization, the content, means, and essence of the communication process itself are changing significantly. Digital technologies, starting from the younger preschool age, significantly transform consciousness, perception. A special type of thinking is being formed – mosaic thinking. This is reflected, among other things, on the speech development of the child: real communication is replaced by virtual, emotional contact is lost. Children increasingly perceive fragmentary speech, devoid of strict grammatical outlines and compositional design. The importance of direct communication and interaction with adults is being lost and transformed, and specifically at the level of emotional contact, individual communication, cognitive communication, interaction during joint activities. Not only the level of children’s speech development is significantly reduced, but also the need for verbal communication itself.

Published: October 2022

The article is devoted to the consideration of social interaction of people with hearing impairment. Approaches to the definition of psychological resources of personality are considered; options for resource compensation of a communicative defect; a scheme of expenditures of psychological resources of personality is proposed. Exploring communication as an act of socialization in people with hearing impairments, possible ways and areas of using psychological resources were identified. Social interactions involve a wide variety of psychological resources that a person can use to establish positive and successful communication - these can be different channels of transmission and perception of information, as well as behavioral, cognitive, emotional, personal characteristics and abilities of an individual. Communication, as a fundamental component of socialization, involves the use of a variety of psychological resources. The violation of verbal communication separates people with hearing impairment from the speakers around him and creates difficulties in obtaining adaptive social experience. For people with hearing impairments, communication acts as a specific communicative act, since it can simultaneously involve various ways of interacting with an opponent. The psychological resources involved in such people will be realized through filling the deficit available in the three communication blocks allocated by G. M. Andreeva. Communication of a person with hearing impairment is a complex, multi-level system, respectively, the success of such communication will depend on the activation of external and internal resources of the individual to achieve the goal. Thus, considering the communication of people with hearing impairment allowed us to analyze which psychological resources can be updated in order to reduce the effects of sensory deprivation.

Authors: Ghaffour Mohamed Toufik , Sarnou Hanane
Published: October 2022

This paper unveils the relative merits of multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games in EFL educational settings for educational purposes, particularly rechecking the influence of League of Legends (LoL) on the EFL learners’ ICC. We have used Byram’s (1997) Model as a framework of assessment for thematic analysis, and both the Cultural Intelligence Scale (CQS), modified by Gozzoli and Gazzaroli (2018) and the Assessment of Intercultural Competence of Chinese College Students (AIC-CCS) by Wu et al. (2013) to ensure a consistent questionnaire. Our participants were 75 Algerian EFL learners (Males=86,7%, Females= 13,3%) from different educational levels, aged 20.08 (SD= 2.99). The results indicate a need to design a more convenient MOBA game as a replace for LoL, as well as adopting a flexible assessment continuous guidance to ensure appropriate ICC instruction.

Published: October 2022

The adverse impact of electronic devices, including mobile ones (smartphones, tablets), on the organism of children, adolescents and youth has been highlighted by many studies. The study was aimed to assess the regime of using mobile electronic devices and its impact on the students’ vision. The data on the use of mobile electronic devices in educational and recreational activities by 1218 schoolchildren and students were acquired; their work-rest schedule when engaged with mobile electronic devices was characterized. A total of 943 schoolchildren and students were examined by ophthalmologist and with the use of the Armis hardware-software complex (Russia). A significant decrease in visual acuity (measured in diopters) and the increase in the rate of functional vision problems and chronic eye disorders in first-graders (p ≤ 0.05) compared to their age-mates of the past decade were observed. During the learning process, a significant decrease in visual acuity (p ≤ 0.05) in both eyes was observed starting from middle school, which persisted both in high school and during first years of the university. Students, who adhered to the work-rest schedule when engaged with mobile electronic devices, significantly less often (p ≤ 0.05) complained of health problems. A regression model (p ≤ 0.05) was constructed for the relationship between the students’ visual acuity (OD, OS, diopters) and their work-rest schedule when engaged with mobile electronic devices. When assessing the regime of using electronic devices, medical stidents found that the time of use in both educational and recreational activities should be strictly regulated. To prevent functional vision problems and chronic eye disorders, it is necessary to limit the time of using mobile electronic devices by students. According to scientific research, this would have a beneficial effect on the finctional state of the organism and prevent fatigue.

A Creative way to Stimulate Children Motoric Skill: Improving the Writing Ability of Students with Mild Intellectual Disorders in Saudi Arabia
Authors: Ahmad Al Taqatqa Firas
Published: October 2022

This research aims at examining the effectiveness of the Finger Sand Painting Alphabet Media in helping children with dysgraphia to improve their writing skill. The study uses quasi experimental design with control and experimental group. This study's results might be used as a jumping-off point for defending the position that children's right to free expression is not crucial. This study's findings indicating the amount of improvement in learning outcomes is practically the same provide confidence to this concept and lend support to its believability. In contrast, this conclusion is hasty since much more in-depth study is needed to determine how the freedom of expression effects the development of motor abilities. This collection of studies concludes that a more organized method of teaching may have the same positive effects.

Authors: Loy Melissa , Simons Micha C. , Raghavan Malathi , Bhatka Heather , Price Bonnie , Foltz Kelly , Fogelberg Katherine
Published: October 2022

OBJECTIVE

A qualitative study based on one-on-one interviews was conducted to better understand the role of the academic veterinary technician (AVT) and identify the motivations and challenges that AVTs face during their academic careers.

SAMPLE

34 AVTs from 12 accredited US colleges of veterinary medicine.

PROCEDURES

Virtual, semi-structured interviews were conducted between July and December 2020. Transcripts were analyzed using discourse analysis within the context of social identity theory.

RESULTS

Five themes and seven accompanying sub-themes emerged: one title but many roles and responsibilities (professional/work; other obligations); workplace culture (belonging/inclusivity, administrative/policies); unique challenges of being in the ivory tower (impostor syndrome, educator role, technical skills for academia); entry into the profession and career progression; and motivation.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

AVTs have great passion for and dedication to their profession. Overwhelmingly, they want their voices to be heard and their skillsets to be both utilized and respected. Recognition of and consideration for the themes uncovered in this study may help to better support and retain technicians in their academic career paths.
Short-term administration of flunixin meglumine or firocoxib does not alter viscoelastic coagulation profiles in healthy horses
Authors: Bishop Rebecca C. , McCoy Annette M. , Kemper Ann M. , Stewart Ruth M. , Wilkins Pamela A.
Published: October 2022

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the effect of the cyclooxygenase-2–selective NSAID firocoxib, compared to the nonselective NSAID flunixin meglumine on viscoelastic coagulation parameters in healthy horses.

ANIMALS

12 healthy adult mixed-breed horses.

PROCEDURES

Following a crossover protocol, horses were administered flunixin meglumine (1.1 mg/kg, IV, q 12 h for 5 days), allowed a 6-month washout period, and then administered firocoxib (0.3 mg/kg, PO, once, then 0.1 mg/kg, PO, q 24 h for 4 days). Omeprazole (1 mg/kg, PO, q 24 h) was administered concurrently with each NSAID. Viscoelastic coagulation profiles and traditional coagulation parameters (prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time, and fibrinogen) were measured before and after each treatment.

RESULTS

Viscoelastic coagulation parameters were within reference intervals before and after both treatments. There was a statistically significant difference between treatments for amplitude at 10 minutes after clot time (P = .02) and maximum clot formation (P = .02); however, the magnitude of change was not clinically significant.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Short-term administration of flunixin meglumine and firocoxib did not result in significant alteration of viscoelastic coagulation profiles in healthy horses. However, clinicians should be aware of possible coagulopathy secondary to NSAID administration with long-term use or critical illness, and further study is indicated.
How study of naturally occurring ocular disease in animals improves ocular health globally
Authors: Gilger Brian C.
Published: October 2022

In this article, which is part of the Currents in One Health series, the role of naturally occurring ocular disease in animals is reviewed with emphasis on how the understanding of these ocular diseases contributes to one health initiatives, particularly the pathogenesis and treatment of ocular diseases common to animals and humans. Animals spontaneously develop ocular diseases that closely mimic those in humans, especially dry eye disease, herpes virus infection (cats), fungal keratitis (horses), bacterial keratoconjunctivitis, uveitis, and glaucoma. Both uveitis and glaucoma are common in domestic animals and humans, and many similarities exist in pathogenesis, genetics, and response to therapy. Furthermore, the study of inherited retinal disease in animals has particularly epitomized the one health concept, specifically the collaborative efforts of multiple disciplines working to attain optimal health for people and animals. Through this study of retinal disease in dogs, innovative therapies such as gene therapy have been developed. A unique opportunity exists to study ocular disease in shared environments to better understand the interplay between the environment, genetics, and ocular disease in both animals and humans. The companion Currents in One Health by Gilger, AJVR, December 2022, addresses in more detail recent studies of noninfectious immune-mediated animal ocular disease and their role in advancing ocular health globally.
Covid-19 Transmission, Risks Factors and Disease Characteristics in Asthmatics Patients
Authors: Alduraywish Shatha A.
Published: October 2022

Background

The World Health Organizations (WHO) scientific brief on the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and asthma from 2021, states individuals with asthma to be at a higher risk of respiratory infections as recorded in the annual influenza season. However, existing data from the COVID-19 pandemic does not till date establish an association of the disease with asthma. The disease burden of COVID-19 among asthmatic patients has not been very evident. This paucity of information forms the main rationale of our literature review, which is focused on collecting scattered literature around transmission, risks, as well as disease characteristics of COVID-19 among asthmatics world over including Saudi Arabia.

Methodology

This study report has been generated after detailed literature survey using keywords “asthma”, “coronavirus”, “COVID-19” and SARS-CoV-2 including quality high impact publications on relevant focus area through Google Scholar, Web of Science, and PubMed. Publication between year 2019 and 2021 were selected in specific to ensure the focus of the current literature review does not lose relevance in space of time.

Results

Our literature review identified elderly to have been reported to have high susceptibility to COVID-19; the risk being exacerbated among those with comorbidities. Further, no specific directives on asthma being one of the risk factors was found to be reported, especially with the current disease management strategy for COVID-19. The severely diseased COVID-19 patients also have been reported to exhibit increase in multiple cytokines, which may increase airway inflammation and exacerbate asthma attacks. However, contrary literature reports indicate an increase in T cells to reduce the disease impact of COVID-19.

Conclusion

There is paucity in significant evidence as of writing this review article to highlight exclusive negative impact of COVID-19 on asthmatics. Asthma patients however need to be recommended care pertaining to having their controller medication as new data continue to emerge on the clinic-pathological factors of the novel coronavirus.
Krztusiec I „Efekt Czerwonej Królowej”
Authors: Ucieklak Karolina
Published: October 2022

Streszczenie

Krztusiec jest zakaźną chorobą, typową dla wieku dziecięcego. Znamiennym objawem jest napadowy, silny i bezproduktywny kaszel, pogarszający się w nocy, który może prowadzić do wymiotów, bezdechu oraz sinicy. Pod względem klinicznym diagnostyka krztuśca jest problematyczna, ponieważ u zaszczepionych dzieci, nastolatków oraz dorosłych objawy mogą być znacznie łagodniejsze i mniej charakterystyczne, a więc trudniejsze do zdiagnozowania. Wprowadzenie szczepionki pełnokomórkowej (DTwP) oraz obowiązku szczepień skutecznie zredukowało liczbę przypadków. W wielu krajach, szczepionki DTwP zawierające pełne komórki bakteryjne, ze względu na swoją reaktogenność, zostały całkowicie lub częściowo, zastąpione szczepionkami bezkomórkowymi (DTaP) zawierającymi kilka wybranych i oczyszczonych białkowych antygenów bakteryjnych. Pomimo powszechności szczepień ochronnych notuje się wzrost zachorowań na krztusiec, nie tylko wśród najbardziej wrażliwej grupy – noworodków, ale również zaszczepionych nastolatków i dorosłych. Główną przyczyną wzrostu zachorowań jest niepełna ochrona oraz słaba skuteczność szczepionki bezkomórkowej w zapobieganiu transmisji Bordetella pertussis, która jest głównym czynnikiem etiologicznym krztuśca. Nowoczesne metody badawcze pozwalają także na identyfikację innych gatunków bakterii z rodzaju Bordetella, tj. B. parapertussis oraz B. holmesii wywołujących parakrztusiec o podobnych objawach. Obecnie stosowane szczepionki nie chronią przed szczepami gatunku B. holmesii, który staje się drugim, pod względem częstości zachorowań, czynnikiem etiologicznym krztuśca. Niedoskonałość dostępnych szczepionek jest przyczyną intensywnych poszukiwań nowych antygenów szczepionkowych i adiuwantów, powtórnego zainteresowania szczepionkami pełnokomórkowymi oraz podejścia hybrydowego przy projektowaniu szczepionki bezkomórkowej opartej o pęcherzyki zewnątrzbłonowe. Największe szanse na wprowadzenie ma szczepionka BPZE1, która jest osłabionym szczepem bakterii B. pertussis i jest przeznaczona do podawania w postaci żywej szczepionki donosowej.

Published: October 2022

Background: Bariatric surgeries are a common practice in society. The most common bariatric surgeries are laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. This study reveals a significant correlation with the formation of kidney stones after bariatric surgeries.
Objective: To measure the prevalence of renal calculi formations among patients who underwent bariatric surgery in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, 2020-2021 and consider it a serious complication in the long run.
Methodology: The study used a quantitative correlation design with a random selection sample out of 302 participants (>18 years) who underwent bariatric surgery. The chi-squared test was used to test the statistical significance between the categories. The continuous variables of pre-and post-surgery BMI are mentioned as mean, SD, 95% confidence interval, and the parametric t-test and paired t-test of pre- and post-surgery BMI as it followed normal distribution.
Results: Overall, 33/302 (10.9%) participants were found to have postbariatric renal calculi after a 6-month period due to significant rapid weight loss [19 (57.6%)]. Additionally, 2/33 (6.1%) patients had leakage postoperatively, especially with gastric bypass [5 patients (19.2%)]. Overall, 20 (60.6%) patients having postbariatric renal calculi were found to have a family history of renal calculi, with a significant p-value of 0.0126. A history of DM, HTN, anti-HTN medication, gout, recurrent UTI, vitamin D intake, high oxalate intake, and dehydration were all found to significantly increase the risk of renal calculi. The awareness of postoperative lifestyle modification was significant. Finally, significant weight loss regarding BMI in gastric sleeve surgery from pre-surgery (44.8 ± 10.2) to post-surgery (31.6 ± 9.4) and in gastric bypass from 44.3 ± 5.3 to 30.8 ± 6.3 was observed.
Conclusion: The majority of 33 patients who had postbariatric renal calculus showed a relationship with rapid and significant weight loss 6 months post-surgery as seen with gallbladder stones. Besides, it was found that the renal calculi risk has a significant relationship to postoperative leakage. In addition, there were significant risk factors to escalate the calculus formation. Although these patients had numerous symptoms, the most common were urgency, dysuria, hematuria, and passing small amount of urine in each voiding. The most significant risks for renal calculi included a history of kidney stones, diabetes, hypertension, and antihypertensive medication. The awareness of life modifications was excellent in these patients; however, the patients generally ignored such modifications. Lifestyle modification after weight reduction surgery is an important factor to prevent kidney stones.

Authors: Mahfouz Mohammed , Alnfeeiye Fahad , Alshehri Hibatullah , Alotaibi Mohammed , Althobaiti Saud , Koursan Samar , Alhalabi Shatha
Published: October 2022

Background: Surgical site infection (SSI) is a significant cause of morbidity, mortality, and increased hospital stay in patients who underwent surgery. At present, there are reports on the poor knowledge of physicians in Saudi Arabia regarding SSI prevention, warranting further investigation. This study aimed to determine the level of knowledge of physicians in Taif City, Saudi Arabia.
Methods: This study utilized a cross-sectional research design involving 80 physicians who are working in the surgery departments in Taif hospitals.
Results: Overall, the knowledge level of physicians on the prevention of surgical skin infection was adequate. Although interns showed lower levels of knowledge, significant associations were observed between the type of physician in the surgical ward with antibiotic prophylaxis, systemic warming, and method of hair removal in the incision site, implying variability in the level of knowledge of physicians in the chosen locale.
Conclusion: The level of knowledge of physicians is adequate, but an effort to increase the knowledge of interns in surgical skin infection prevention needs to be promoted. Physicians with more number of years of experience, such as residents, consultants, and specialists, have higher knowledge about the prevention of SSI.

Distingo esto último de aquella actividad que es llevada adelante por los intelectuales orgánicos.
