Using Veress Needle for Laparoscopy in Females with Prior Cesarean Section: Considerations and Safety Implications
Authors: Vicente Humberto , Reyes Derick , Bonilla Juan
Published: June 2024

Laparoscopic surgery has brought about a significant transformation in modern surgical practices, offering numerous advantages such as reduced postoperative discomfort and quicker recovery times. However, the initial step of accessing the abdominal cavity presents inherent challenges, especially in patients with previous cesarean sections, whose abdominal anatomy may be altered by adhesions or scar tissue. Among the techniques used to establish pneumoperitoneum, the Veress needle method is commonly employed, yet its safety in females with prior cesarean sections requires careful consideration. This paper provides a thorough examination of safety outcomes, strategies for managing complications, and the long-term implications of Veress needle insertion in females with prior cesarean sections undergoing laparoscopic surgery. It delves into the evolution of laparoscopic surgery, emphasizing the need for a nuanced understanding of the challenges posed by altered abdominal anatomy. Drawing from diverse literature, including peer-reviewed articles and clinical studies, the paper explores the intricacies of preoperative assessment, highlighting the importance of comprehensive patient evaluation to identify potential risk factors and inform surgical planning. Furthermore, it investigates refinements in surgical techniques, examining novel approaches and safety measures proposed to mitigate the risks associated with Veress needle insertion in this specific patient population. From innovative methods for measuring the depth of the anterior abdominal wall to alternative entry sites and techniques, such as the open (Hasson) technique or left upper quadrant (Palmer's point) entry, the paper elucidates the multifaceted strategiesemployed to enhance safety and efficacy. Additionally, it addresses acute safety concerns and long-term complications, advocating for ongoing monitoring and follow- up care. Identifying research gaps, the paper calls for further investigation to refine safety protocols and improve patient outcomes, ultimately aiming to enhance patient well-being in this specific patient cohort.

Published: June 2024

INTRODUCTION: The use of ultrasound for soft tissue injuries in pediatric emergency medicine is increasing progressively. Ultrasound can be an invaluable tool for the description of skin disorders, evaluation of the need for abscess drainage and discrimination between invasive and non-invasive lesions.
PRESENT CASE: Patient with an unusual finding in soft-tissue ultrasound that led to additional complementary studies.
CONCLUSIONS: Self-limiting sternal tumors of childhood (SELSTOC) usually present as an area of rapid soft-tissue growth and inflammation located in the pre-sternal region. The nature of this condition means that the lesion is self-resolved before any association with previous trauma or infection can be established. THEREFORE, we must be aware of this entity and the different diagnostic and therapeutic approaches because recognizing SELSTOC typical features can avoid unnecessary diagnostic tests and/or disproportionate therapeutic strategies, unless we find atypical. features in the ultrasound, as was our case.

Authors: Alpuche Aranda Celia , Echaniz Avilez Gabriela
Published: June 2024

El éxito del descubrimiento y desarrollo de los antimicrobianos es un parteaguas en la medicina moderna, ya que se considera que existe un antes y un después del inicio del uso clínico de antibióticos en el tratamiento de enfermedades infecciosas. El tratamiento antibiótico ha tenido un gran impacto en disminuir la morbilidad y mortalidad producida por infecciones susceptibles de ser tratadas, disminuyen el tiempo de enfermedad y las potenciales complicaciones graves que pudieran presentarse. Sin embargo, desde el inicio del uso clínico de antibióticos a finales de la primera mitad del siglo XX, se identificó que había especificidad de los antibióticos para ejercer su acción contra las diferentes bacterias de manera natural (resistencia intrínseca) y aún más, que bacterias que por especie eran previamente sensibles al efecto de un antibiótico, a través del tiempo aparecían como resistentes a los mismos (resistencia adquirida).

Authors: Bendíková Elena , Holgado Juan Carlos , Uvinha Ricardo Ricci
Published: June 2024

The quality of the musculoskeletal system in children is important in terms of primary prevention of postural disorders in adulthood. The aim of the pilot study was to assess the impact of the Propriofoot Concept exercises within the physical and sports education classes on the postural health of female students with an emphasis on the foot, joint range of the ankle, the gait, pain elimination and overall body posture as a manifestation of its functionality. The sample consisted of Ʃ n = 27 high-school female students in age(x) 16.3 ± 0.7 years. In terms of data collection methods, standardized procedures and methods for physical education and physiotherapy practice were applied, focusing on the selected factors (an emphasis on the foot, joint range of the ankle, the gait, pain elimination and overall body posture) of the musculoskeletal system. Diagnostics were applied before and after the 6-month program. The obtained results show that the exercise programme based on the Propriofoot Concept had a significant (Wtest, p < 0.01) and positive effect on the structure and function of the foot, as well as flexion and extension at the ankle joint, which resulted in the elimination of foot pain and improvement of gait. The final assessment (V2) showed that the foot structure and function improved (p < 0.01) and had a positive influence on the overall body posture, as well as its individual segments, in which we found significant changes between V1 and V2. At the same time, we found a relationship between foot functionality and overall body posture, as well as between other monitored factors. These findings point to the importance of targeted exercises, implemented in physical and sports education, to female students’ postural health.

Authors: Saad Salama Tasnim Yahia , Harb Abdelkawi Ali Maryam Abdelkawi , Kandakurti Praveen Kumar , Bose Meruna , Muthukrishnan Ramprasad , Hazari Animesh
Published: June 2024

Background: The countermovement jump (CMJ) and the squat jump (SJ) are two vertical jump (VJ) tests widely used to evaluate lower limb muscle strength and power, respectively. Biomechanical analysis of SJ and CMJ could help to predict the strength associated musculoskeletal clinical disorder which is most commonly seen among females such as patellofemoral pain syndrome, osteoarthritis etc. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to conduct and compare the biomechanical analysis of squat and countermovement jump using advanced motion analysis system and compare the changes among sedentary and active young females of the United Arab Emirates.
Methodology: The experimental study was conducted at the Thumbay Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Hospital, Gulf Medical University, Ajman, UAE. A total of 60 sedentary females, and 60 active females within age group 18-30 years were recruited under the convenience sampling method. The participants were randomly divided into two subgroups of 30 each for SJ and CMJ jump analysis respectively for sedentary and active group.
Results: There was a statistically significant difference between the CMJ and SJ among the young females in UAE population (p < 0.05). The outcome variables such as jump height, and lower limb joint force were significantly reduced for SJ and CMJ in the sedentary group compared to active group. Majority of the variables showed moderate to severe effect size.
Conclusion: Based on the study findings, it could be suggested that the “Sedentary Group” in the present study had poor muscle strength and ability to sustain the stress on the lower limb joints as also shown with lower mean total work. Since we have conducted the study on healthy non-athletes’ young females, the data could be used for further clinical correlation and comparison for lower limb muscle strength and power.

Published: June 2024

The article describes a quantitative research study that examined the prevalence of abuse and neglect present in the life histories among a sample population in Brunei Darussalam. Data were gathered using the most standardized inventory in the field which was adapted to Bruneian context and used to measure incidents and types of abuse and neglect. A sample population of 112 participants drawn from two educational sites completed the Adverse Childhood Experiences International Questionnaire (ACE-IQ) with a 100% return data. The findings show that the most prevalence abuse and neglect among the participants were emotional and physical abuse as well as neglect. The study concludes that participants who reported any single form of abuse and neglect were likely to have suffered other types of abuse and neglect, and the most consistently strong correlations were between abuse of alcohol intoxication and several types of abuse, including sexual abuse with intercourse reported by the participants. The findings conclude that the most prevalence abuse was emotional abuse (91%), followed by physical and emotional neglect (59%) and physical abuse (46%). The lowest prevalence of abuse reported by the participants was sexual abuse (26%).

Published: June 2024

Introduction. The development of methodological issues of optimizing the activities of mining and metallurgical companies and the sale of platinum group metals are highly relevant in the current market conditions due to sanctions restrictions and the severance of international economic ties. Theoretical analysis. The concept of an optimization model is formulated, the main goals for the sales unit of a mining and metallurgical company are determined, a balanced approach to monthly planning is justified, which involves dividing the sales volume into two parts: under long-term contracts and on the spot market, and the stages of constructing an optimization sales model are developed. Empirical analysis. An optimization model is presented for calculating sales volumes of platinum, palladium and rhodium within two months to obtain maximum operating profit. The model is based on regression modeling of prices for platinum group metals, a cost model built on open data from a Russian mining and metallurgical company. Results. Approbation of the methodology made it possible to justify the sales volumes of platinum group metals in two forecast periods depending on the price environment, which provide the opportunity to increase the total profit of the company under given restrictions.
Theoretical and methodological analysis of the legal nature of public control
Authors:   Saratov State University, Hammoud Al-Mihyawi Zaynab Jabbar
Published: June 2024

Introduction. In modern legal science, there is no universal and uniform approach to defining the concept of “public control”, which predetermines and actualizes the need for a detailed study of the legal nature of this phenomenon, its content and the functions that it performs in the state and society. Theoretical analysis. The analysis of doctrinal approaches to disclosing the content of public control, formed in the system of legal science, allows us to draw a conclusion about a differentiated definition of this phenomenon. On the one hand, public control is considered as a combination of state and municipal types of control, which corresponds to the constitutional and legislative approaches to understanding public power. Another point of view complements the previous perspective with another type of control – public control, which involves the participation of civil society institutions in the implementation of this function of public authority. Empirical analysis. It has been revealed that the concept of “public control” is practically not used in the Russian legislation. At the same time, in judicial practice this category is often used in the texts of decisions of higher courts, but its interpretation, like that in the legal doctrine, is also very heterogeneous. Results. The assessment of the theory and practice of using the concept of “public control” allowed us to come to the following conclusions. The category of “public control”, in contrast to the term of “public power”, does not have a legal meaning, that is, it is not enshrined in the Russian legislation, which leads to the need to identify its theoretical significance only through the analysis of doctrinal approaches established in legal science. Based on the analysis of theoretical approaches to the meaning of public control, as well as materials from judicial practice, it is possible to conclude that this concept is used in a diametrically opposite semantic context. Applying the concept of public power as a combination of state, municipal and public ones, it is proposed to consider public control in a similar context, as a combination of state, municipal and public types of control.
Administrative Verification of Court Evidence: Gaps in the Civil Procedure Form
Authors:   Professor of the Department of Administrative Law and Administrative Activities of Internal Affairs Agencies of the Ural Law Institute of the Ministry of the Interior of the Russian Federation, LL.D., Professor, Osintsev Dmitry V.
Published: June 2024

Work with judicial evidence is limited to a certain form of legal proceedings; the arsenal of judicial means for their verification and research focuses on identifying the content and meaning of the information provided, however, situations often arise when the admissibility of evidence submitted to the court must be rechecked by administrative authorities, but the current legislation does not provide for the use of such a mechanism as a mandatory one, the participants in the case may not have the appropriate competence, and the limited time of the trial does not allow for a long wait for the conclusions that can be made by the administrative authorities. In this regard, it is proposed to introduce an imperative pre-trial procedure for verifying written evidence, supported by mandatory requirements, and the competencies (lawfulness of actions) of the persons who compose and (or) provide them, by administrative bodies with the assignment of appropriate powers to the administrator (apparatus) of the court.

Authors:   Associate Professor of the Department of Judicial Activities and Criminal Procedure Named after P.M. Davydov of the Ural State Law University Named after V.F. Yakovlev, PhD (Law), Kazakova Aleksandra V.
Published: June 2024

Due to the significant restriction of human rights and freedoms in the course of criminal proceedings, strict compliance with the requirements of the law is a basic principle in the activities of law enforcement agencies and the court. At the same time, the postulate about the possibility of applying the law by analogy in criminal proceedings leads to interesting law enforcement “novelties”. In recent years, officials have issued a document not provided for by the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, which is referred to in the police as a resolution on the qualification of a crime, and in the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation — about the re-qualification of the crime. Therefore, for uniformity in the article, this act will be referred to as a resolution on (re) qualification. In this article, the author sets the task to analyze this document in order to establish its legal nature, its role in the system of procedural legal relations, and also to find out the potential need for legal consolidation. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the following: the criteria for checking criminal procedural documents for legitimacy are proposed; this is the first understanding of the decision on (re)qualification; a scheme for legislative inclusion of the document in the law is proposed. Applied general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, as well as a private scientific method — legal forecasting. As a result of the scientific study of the law enforcement document, there is a mutual enrichment of both theory and procedural activity.

The Problem of Implementation of Enforcement Measures by a Bailiff in Respect of the Debtor's Ownership Right to Joint Property Held by a Debtor and the Debtor's Family Members within the Framework of Enforcement Proceedings and a Civil Procedure
Authors:   Court Session Secretary of the Central District Court of Chita, Transbaikal Territory, Zarubin Aleksey V.
Published: June 2024

In the 21st century, the debtor's property rights are of no small importance in enforcement practice during arrest or recovery by a bailiff, since the property interests of his family members who have common property with him or as a share in it or jointly without determining the share may be affected. In this case, the question arises of how not to violate the rights and legitimate interests of other members of the debtor's family. A special role in determining the property rights of the debtor is played by who he belongs to in the family according to the Family Code of the Russian Federation. In this connection, the bailiff performs appropriate actions to determine the property rights of the debtor in the right of common ownership with other members of his family. Also of great importance is the category of property not subject to seizure or collection specified in the law, as well as property belonging to the category of “luxury”.

On Implementation of Principles of the Contractual System: A Contemporary View
Authors:   Associate Professor of the Department of Civil Law and Procedure of the International Law Institute, PhD (Law), Associate Professor, Laychenkova Natalia N.
Published: June 2024

The modern development of the Russian Federation is characterized by the search for a balance between effective functioning and optimization of costs for the implementation of functions assigned to public legal entities. One of the tools of such a balance is the implementation of the principles of the contract system, ensuring the satisfaction of state and municipal needs, which is associated with problems caused by both imperfection of legal norms and the dynamics of socio-economic development. In order to improve the application of norms that enshrine the principles of the contract system, the article analyzes certain basic ideas of public procurement, which demonstrated the difficulties of implementing legislative guidelines. The study allowed us to formulate a conclusion about the need to amend certain provisions of Federal Law No. 44-FZ dated April 5, 2013 "On the Contract System in the field of Procurement of Goods, works, and Services for State and Municipal Needs", which enshrine the principles of the contract system.

How and Why Are High-Rises Destroying the Social Comfort in Metropolitan Cities?
Authors:   Professor of the Department of Constitutional and Administrative Law of the Krasnodar University of the Ministry of the Interior of the Russian Federation, Doctor of History, PhD (Law), Professor, Uporov Ivan V.
Published: June 2024

The problem of construction of residential areas in large Russian cities in the form of so-called ‘human buildings’ in the form of a concentration of high-rise apartment buildings (MKD), which arose several years after the collapse of the USSR in 1991, is becoming more and more aggravated every year. MKDs are often built in violation of current building codes and regulations; almost all new residential complexes lack the necessary social infrastructure (primarily kindergartens, schools, clinics), which, in the absence of sufficient space for residents’ personal cars, creates conditions for uncomfortable living in MKDs. This approach does not correspond to modern ideas about the comfortable life of people in large cities, and it does not take into account such an important factor as internal mass migration (the outflow of residents from the northern and eastern regions of the country).

Observation of similar processes in the Russian Federation allows, when compared with the analyzed experience, to identify an approach to identifying objects that act as centers of attraction for the population in urbanized areas. Conclusions are made about the possibility of applying this experience.

In the article, on the basis of the analysis of the legal regulation of the reflection of objects of federal, regional and local significance in the documents of territorial planning and urban zoning, the means of harmonizing such a mapping are proposed. The means of harmonization encompass both the structuring of zoning and the color palettes through which the display is proposed. It seems that the proposed steps aimed at improving the regulation of town-planning relations can form the basis for the unification of zoning and its reflection in territorial planning and town-planning zoning.

The article reviews some special aspects of the legal regulation of the municipal electoral procedure in Argentina. The author studies federal and regional laws of Argentina. The approaches of the Argentinian legislator to some matters differ significantly from the corresponding legal regulation in Russia. In particular, this concerns the participation of foreign citizens in municipal elections, the opportunity to establish regional and municipal political parties. In the author's opinion, the Argentinian experience can be taken into account at updating the laws of the Russian Federation on local self-government and municipal elections.
Traditional Approaches and Innovative Strategies in Laboratory Animal Models for Cancer Research: A Comprehensive Review
Authors: Erdoğan Mümin Alper
Published: June 2024

Cancer remains one of the foremost challenges in medical research, necessitating diverse and sophisticated models to understand its complexity and develop effective treatments. This review explores the evolution and utility of experimental cancer models, highlighting their pivotal role in bridging the gap between basic research and clinical application. From the traditional use of xenografts, which provide a direct avenue for studying tumor growth and drug response in a living organism, to the innovative approaches of genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) that replicate human cancer's genetic and phenotypic traits, each model offers unique insights into cancer biology. Recent advances have introduced organoid models, offering a three-dimensional perspective that closely mimics the tumor's microenvironment, and computational models, which leverage patient-specific data to predict disease progression and treatment outcomes. These models enhance our understanding of cancer's molecular drivers, facilitate the development of targeted therapies, and underscore the importance of personalized medicine in oncology. Despite the diversity and potential of these experimental models, challenges remain, including the replication of the tumor's complexity and the integration of immune system interactions. Future research is directed toward refining these models, improving their predictive accuracy, and combining their strengths to offer a holistic view of cancer biology and treatment.
Some Alternative Methods to the Use of Laboratory Animals in Medical Research
Authors: Kiliccioglu Ilker , Dulger Gorkem
Published: June 2024

Experimental animals have long been used for research and educational purposes. However, in recent years, ethical debates regarding the rights of animals to life have also become important. It is advocated that animal experiments can be carried out for scientific goals that can contribute to human and animal welfare in the long term and in cases where there are no alternative methods. The principles of “replacement”, “reduction”, and “refinement”, known as the 3R rule, have been updated as 4R with the addition of the “responsibility” principle. These principles provide basic guidance for the ethical use of animals in scientific experiments. Techniques that can be alternatives to animal experiments in research and biological effect studies to test synthesized drug candidate compounds and various chemicals have been developed. In vitro cell culture techniques and bioimaging methods are very important alternatives to in vivo animal experiments. The micro-dose technique is another alternative method that reveals the effects of drug candidate compounds on volunteer individuals at very low doses without using animals. Software databases and in silico computer simulations are also gaining importance in research institutions as an alternative to animal experiments. In this review, the fundamentals of animal research ethics and emerging alternatives to reduce animal use in medical experiments were discussed.
DIVULGAÇÃO E APROPRIAÇÃO DO MÉTODO DE LEITURA REPENTINA, DE ANTÓNIO FELICIANO DE CASTILHO, NO BRASIL (1851-1855)
Authors: Albuquerque Suzana Lopes de , Rocha Juliano Guerra

Contando com uma rede de apoiadores e adeptos, o poeta português António Feliciano de Castilho (1800-1875) encontrou, por outro lado, resistências e intitulou de “adversários” os críticos ao seu método de ensino de leitura, tanto em Portugal, quanto no império brasileiro. O autor elaborou seu método a partir da proposição de diferentes reformas na instrução primária e secundária em Portugal e no Brasil, idealizando uma escola como palco de experimentações de um projeto de redenção pedagógica e social. Na tentativa de divulgação do que considerava uma novidade metodológica, o autor veio ao Brasil, em 1855. Nessa rede de sujeitos e de espaços transatlânticos de circulação de ideários pedagógicos entre Portugal e Brasil, o objetivo deste escrito é investigar a divulgação e apropriação das ideias de António Feliciano de Castilho, em específico do seu método de leitura repentina, antes de sua vinda ao Brasil. Desse modo, o artigo ancora-se numa análise de diversas fontes documentais, tomando como recorte temporal inicial o ano de 1851, quando na imprensa brasileira houve, mais enfaticamente, anúncios da primeira edição do método Castilho, intitulado de Leitura Repentina (1850), até a chegada de seu autor ao país, em março de 1855. A partir desse intervalo de tempo, inicialmente destaca-se a abertura de escolas pelo método de leitura repentina nas províncias do império e, na sequência, analisa-se a Cartilha de leitura repentina, ou plágio do Método Castilho (1854), escrita pelo português João Vicente Martins (1808-1854), naturalizado brasileiro, que objetivava difundir a proposta de Castilho pelo Brasil.
