Using business simulators as factor of improving quality of educational services in university
Authors: Pashuk Natalia  Ruslanovna , Varchuk Vladislav
Published: June 2022

The rapid development of technologies and digitalization of all segments of the economy form new requirements of the business community for personnel, which obliges the education system to comply with modern trends and provide training for highly qualified specialists. The variety of methods and forms of training students of higher educational institutions provides an opportunity for variability in choosing the optimal way to organize the educational process, however, the active introduction of innovations in business processes actualizes the problem of insufficient practical orientation of university graduates to work in the real sector of the economy. There has been illustrated a learning pyramid (cone of experience, cone of retention) developed in the 1950s by an American scientist E. Dale, which displays the share of information perceived by a person during training as a percentage and the effectiveness of various teaching methods. In this connection, in this article, the authors consider the use of business simulations in the educational process as a way to improve the quality of educational services and increase the interest and motivation of the student body. It is substantiated that the use of this method contributes to an increase in interest in the educational process both on the part of the teaching staff and on the part of students who experience significant difficulties in mastering new material. There has been substantiated the importance of introducing the modern teaching methods into the activities of universities, as well as to identify the main problems of using business simulators in modern conditions. The results obtained are based on current scientific articles by Russian and foreign scientists who have studied the process of improving the quality of educational services in the digital economy, as well as innovative teaching methods in higher educational institutions. The application of the main tools for the digitalization of the educational process regulated by federal regulatory documents has been actualized.
Methods of comparative analysis of investment attractiveness of organizations
Authors: Sergeeva Anna Viktorovna , Melay Elena Aleksandrovna , Nikitina Elena Aleksandrovna
Published: June 2022

The methods of comparing the organizations in terms of their investment attractiveness in order to choose the best alternative have been developed. The main external and internal factors of the organization's investment attractiveness are selected as the stages of the methodology. Evaluation criteria are defined for each factor, depending on the compliance with which the factor score is determined. To assess the level of investment attractiveness of the country it is proposed to use the Global Attractiveness Index (GAI). The index allows to divide the countries into groups with high attractiveness, medium-high level of attractiveness, medium-low level and low level of attractiveness. In the methodology, the score depends on the group to which the country is assigned according to the GAI index. The assessment of the investment attractiveness of the region is carried out according to the integral indicator of investment attractiveness of the regions, which is calculated by the Expert RA agency. The regions are divided into three groups of investment attractiveness: A, B, C. The score of this factor depends on the group to which the region is assigned. It is proposed to assess the financial well-being of the organization based on the analysis of indicators of financial stability, liquidity, profitability, probability of bankruptcy. The degree of compliance with the standards will determine the score of the factor. The score of the investment experience factor is stipulated by the assessment of the organization’s investments during its operation, their size and effectiveness. It is proposed to evaluate the attitude of the market to the enterprise in accordance with the dynamics of indicators (applying the Golden Rule of Economics). The listed factors are proposed to be considered through the prism of the investor’s goals: minimizing country risks, financial feasibility of projects and dynamic development of the organization. The weight of the factors depends on the choice of the goal. The sum of the products of each factor score on its weight determines the value of the indicator of the organization investment attractiveness, according to which it is possible to compare various alternatives to the investor’s investments, as well as to evaluate the dynamics of the attractiveness of an individual object over time.
Initiation of implementing innovative digital tools into activities of municipal organizations
Authors: Sidorov Maksim Andreevich
Published: June 2022

Digital labor tools effectively penetrate into the sphere of public administration, in particular, into the activities of local governments in 2022. There have been found such negative factors as technical and technological contradictions, an increase in the duration of user training, organizational opposition to innovation, which is stipulated by the lack of a single technology for the introduction of innovative digital labor tools adapted to the specifics of municipal organizations. The technology of initiating the innovative digital tools in the activities of local governments is being developed. The initiation process is considered as the first phase of the technological model of using the innovative digital tools in the local governments and is a set of stages that combine activities that precede the material embodiment of an innovative labor tool. The main factors influencing the initiation of an innovative digital tool have been identified; the analysis of processes for structuring the reasons for implementation was carried out; the basic criteria for the effectiveness of the implementation of digital innovative implementation of an innovative digital tool are determined. A complex model of the phase of initiation of the introduction of an innovative digital tool into the activities of a local government has been developed. Within the framework of the developed model, this process is divided into stages: realization of the need for an innovative tool, characterization of the problem, identification of the admissibility of alternatives, determination of the purpose of implementation, determination of implementation criteria. For each stage, the content, universal aspects of the process, characteristic of local governments, are indicated. It is noted that the results of the study can be widely applied in the framework of providing a structural approach for the practical informatization of the activities of local government personnel, as well as for developing the new digital tools.
Models and methods in supply chain administration
Authors: Smirnova Elena Aleksandrovna , Zuev Andrey Vyacheslavovich
Published: June 2022

The article highlights the study of models and methods of supply chain management. There have been realized the need to adapt existing logistic mechanisms and create new ones in the ever-changing business environment. The overview and analytical assessment of current models, methods and concepts used in supply chain management in modern conditions is presented. Generalization of the experience of leading specialists made it possible to conditionally divide the models and methods used in logistics into the general scientific methods and special ones. Special models and methods are modeling tools that have been developed and are effectively used to solve such logistical problems as the tasks of managing logistics infrastructure facilities (object modeling) and the tasks of managing logistics flows and processes (process modeling). The optimal approach to supply chain regulation is substantiated. The Quick Response model based on immediate action when delivery dates change The advanced model for restoring the normal operation of supply chains based on the principle of taking urgent means at changing the delivery time is found the most helpful. The model is being actively implemented into the digital platforms for active tracking the status of goods and possible delays. Due to the lack of information it is proposed to use analytical methods including mathematical models, and various auxiliary tools to solve the tasks. There are investigated the prospects of applying a multimodal approach to the supply chain regulation, green logistics reengineering, models and methods of supply chain management based on the introduction of digital technologies, namely the introduction of blockchain technologies and the creation of an information platform in which the main objects of supply chains will be involved. There is considered the project of the European electronic cleaning certificate designed to reduce the time costs in searching for logistics operators. The Cargo Stream digital platform, which is an aggregator for ordering logistics services, is considered. The key features of green logistics reengineering based on the unification of the mechanism for selecting raw materials and the use of reusable containers are identified.
Planned Vulnerabilities? Street Flooding and Drainage Infrastructure in Colonial Dar es Salaam
Authors: Edward Frank
Published: June 2022

Technology can be both a problem and a solution in connection with critical events like road flooding in cities. This article explores how roadwork undertaken during German and British colonial rule created a situation which has, ever since, made the city of Dar es Salaam in Tanganyika (now Tanzania) vulnerable to flooding. The article identifies colonial spatial planning, a globally circulating engineering culture, and an undue emphasis on anti-malarial measures as the main causes of the flood vulnerability of roads. After decades of neglect, repeatedly flooded streets made the construction of drainage infrastructure an increasingly necessary preventive solution. Only slowly did drainage become an integral feature of road design, thus decreasing the city’s vulnerability to floods. Drawing on analyses of archival and documentary sources, the article contends that the making of the vulnerability and criticality of roads and drainage systems unfolded within a socio-technical context which reflects colonial structures and terrains in the Global South.
Wells and Boreholes: Resilient Water Provision in Nairobi
Authors: Akallah Jethron Ayumbah
Published: June 2022

In most Global South cities, the majority of urban residents, especially those in informal settlements, continue to survive off the main infrastructural grid. In Nairobi for instance, over 60% of residents live in informal settlements, defined by widespread squalor and shortage of key infrastructures for everyday living. Despite their existence as unplanned, these informal settlements have witnessed some forms of innovation around alternative technologies for water provision. Through oral and archival sources, this article shows that although large infrastructural systems are critical to urban dwellers, Nairobi’s waterscape has always found its resilience in a quilted landscape of water supply technologies. As part of this quilt, boreholes and wells have long been essential, either as key solutions or as complements to the main supply system. The author explores the development of Nairobi’s centralised formal water supply system from 1899 to date locating inherently built vulnerabilities that are born out of the dependency on large infrastructural systems. He concludes that the centralised piped water supply system is critical hence vulnerable, and that urban resilience for both the poor and rich urban class, is built on alternatives that ensure multiplicity of access and usage.
Resilience from Below: Technicians, Repair and Maintenance Works in Post-socialist Dar es Salaam, 1985-2020
Authors: Mchome Emanuel Lukio
Published: June 2022

Since its establishment by the German East Africa Railway Company in 1906, Dar es Salaam’s electricity infrastructure has been functioning precariously. Tanzania’s national power company (Tanesco) collaborated with donors to ameliorate these problems, but to no avail. Tanzania’s cities continued to experience both cascading and rolling blackouts, and such breakdowns of infrastructure became critical, especially from the 1980s onward, making electricity consumers vulnerable. This article illustrates that the failure of Tanesco’s systems does not mean that inhabitants in the city have remained passively exposed to the consequences of power breakdowns. Based on interviews, a literature review, and archival material, it demonstrates that electricians have become part and parcel of a socio-technical landscape that has enhanced household resilience—the ability to survive in a country partly plagued by failing critical infrastructure. The article reveals the active role played by formally and informally trained electricians (mafundi) in forging alternative solutions, increasing electricity users’ ability to cope with power outages. Employing innovative skills to repair electrical appliances and tinker with Tanesco’s infrastructure, street electricians increased the resilience of residential electricity users in the face of recurrent power failures. The author argues that urban resilience studies in African cities like Dar es Salaam need to consider street technicians to gain a full understanding of households’ responses to vulnerable electric infrastructure.
Colonial Impacts on Water Supplies: An Historical Review of Sluice Technologies in Ancient Sri Lankan Irrigation
Authors: Jayawardana Chandana
Published: June 2022

As a measure of reducing the foreign trade deficit and to augment the usable land for commercial plantations, nineteenth century British authorities attempted to restore the irrigation system that prevailed in Sri Lanka since the Early Historic Period. In so doing, neither the system components were subjected to any hydraulic engineering analysis nor the entire systems were studied in a holistic context. The open well structure, called bisokotuva, of the ancient sluices was interpreted as the equivalent of the modern valve pits. With this understanding, ancient sluices were restored by installing the flow control gates inside the bisokotuvas. This article argues that such understanding was not based on the actual physical remains of the ancient works but was due to the colonial precept of controlled flows of irrigated water. It also discusses similar cases in several other Asian countries and how such assertions affected the European understanding on the Asian societies.
From the Quadrivium to Modern Science
Authors: Valleriani Matteo
Published: June 2022

The ultimate objective of this work is to demonstrate that it is possible to reconsider the emergence of modern science as a process of disintegration of the quadrivium, which was considered a stable scheme for the organization of knowledge. The argument considers the quadrivium according to the Boethian systematization that was used to organize the curricula of the late medieval universities. This argument follows the development of each of its disciplines and illustrates the practical turn they underwent. The period between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries is explored, and shows that during this period, the quadrivium potentially included a fifth autonomous discipline, calendric. The article concludes by describing epistemological considerations to the mechanisms of disintegration of knowledge structures.
Energy Consumption and Economic Growth Linkage: Global Evidence from Symmetric and Asymmetric Simulations
Authors: Ali Wajid , Nathaniel Solomon Prince , Adekunle Ibrahim Ayoade , Kumar Bezon
Published: June 2022

The literature reveals that linear models do not accurately represent the asymmetric relationship between economic growth and energy consumption (EC). To fill this gap, we examined the asymmetric relationship between EC and economic growth in a non-linear panel autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) framework of 85 countries as a whole sample and of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS), the Next Eleven, Big Four in Western Europe, Asia-Pacific region, Group of Seven, South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC), Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) and the Arab League as a sub-sample analysis from 1977 to 2014. A second generational unit root test has been applied to check the problem of cross-sectional dependency. Asymmetric co-integration was employed to analyse the co-integration between the variables of interest. Long-run and short-run estimates have been calculated using the non-linear panel ARDL method. Results indicate that positive shocks to energy use tend to have a growth-enhancing effect in ECO and the Next Eleven while in the rest of the regions, the effect is growth contraction. Moreover, economic recovery from a positive shock to energy use is the case in the Arab League, Asia-Pacific region, Group of Seven and in the whole sample. However, a negative shock to EC is observed in the Group of Seven, Asia Pacific region, Big Four in Western Europe and ECO, and the whole sample worsens the economic contraction. We can deduct from this study’s results that information on the asymmetric relationship between the subject variables is needed to design sound economic policy decisions across different economic regions.

'La conversación de contacto' en parejas románticas de larga duración
Authors: L.Fitch Kristine
Published: June 2022

Estudios previos han establecido la importancia de la conversación de contacto en la construcción de las relaciones interpersonales. El presente trabajo intenta contribuir al desarrollo de esta área describiendo la comunicación de contacto como un mecanismo para desarrollar relaciones personales, lo que representa una nueva faceta en la investigación de este tipo de habla. Con base en un estudio etnográfico de varias parejas colombianas, relaciono instancias de habla de la vida cotidiana de estas parejas con sistemas de significado que son exclusivos de la pareja y que a la vez reflejan normas y premisas culturales más amplias sobre las relaciones personales. Estos sistemas de significado, que describo como códigos relacionales, incluyen formas específicas de conversación de contacto a la vez que muestran ciertos patrones de interacción que parecen emerger en situaciones en las que la pareja no cuenta con la conversación de contacto como un recurso de interacción.
El hablante en su discurso: expresión y omisión del sujeto de 'creo'
Authors: Angel Aijón Oliva Miguel , José Serrano María
Published: June 2022

Como se sabe, la sintaxis del español permite la elisión del sujeto gramatical en la mayoría de los contextos. No obstante, la elección entre expresión y omi-sión del sujeto difícilmente puede considerarse aleatoria, sino que se halla estrechamente ligada a factores discursivo-pragmáticos que, a su vez, son reflejo de los fundamentos cognitivos de la variabilidad lingüística. El presente estudio se limitará a un contexto gramatical muy concreto, el de la construcción (Yo) creo, utilizada por lo general para matizar evidencialmente un contenido proposicional. La aparición del sujeto de primera persona se correlaciona con los contextos de argumentación y expresión de opiniones, lo que se explica porque tal variante focaliza perceptualmente la presencia del hablante y ancla el discurso en su esfera personal. Por el contrario, la omisión es más frecuente en la formulación de hipótesis y con proposiciones cuyo ámbito se considera más general. Pero es posible ir más allá y descubrir que la propia variación sociolingüística se halla directamente relacionada con tales valores cognitivos; así, la omisión es más habitual en hablantes que intentan transmitir una imagen de objetividad profesional, como los periodistas, mientras que los políticos se decantan claramente por la expresión para elaborar sus argumentos. Asimismo, se detectan ciertas diferencias entre hombres y mujeres, particularmente en la frecuencia total deaparición de la forma creo, lo que puede apuntar a distintas orientaciones evidenciales del discurso. Por tanto, la variable analizada acaba revelándose como un recurso de estilo, esto es, como un medio dinámico para construir significados en la interacción.
Marcas gramaticales de oralidad en los chats y foros de debate: incorporación de marcadores discursivos del español hablado
Authors: López quero Salvador
Published: June 2022

Este artículo trata de las similitudes entre la lengua hablada y la escrita en Internet a través de la incorporación de marcadores discursivos del español hablado (por ejemplo, venga y qué fuerte) en los chats y foros de debate. De este modo, el hecho de que los cambios lingüísticos sigan el camino lengua oral–lengua de Internet–escritura formal pone de manifiesto que las manifestaciones de lo oral en loescrito serán más palpables y la influencia de la lengua oral en la escritura formal será mayor.
Patrones melódicos en el habla de diálogo en español: un primer análisis del corpus Glissando
Authors: Garrido Almiñana Juan María , Rustullet Sílvia
Published: June 2022

En este trabajo se ofrecen los resultados preliminares de un estudio orientado a la definición de un inventario de patrones melódicos del español en habla de diálogo a partir del análisis del corpus GLISSANDO, un corpus para estudios prosódicos que contiene una amplia muestra de diálogos formales e informales grabados por diferentes locutores. Los patrones descritos se han obtenido de forma automática, aplicando el procedimiento de estilización, anotación y modelización de contornos melódicos descrito en Garrido (2010) a una pequeña parte del corpus, cuatro interacciones (tres formales y una informal) entre dos locutores profesionales de radio, un hombre y una mujer (22 minutos y 53 segundos de habla en total). Los resultados apuntan que los patrones melódicos que se emplean en habla de diálogo en español son en general los mismos que en habla de lectura, aunque probablemente sus usos y funciones sean algo diferentes, tal como ya apuntaban estudios anteriores. En todo caso, el análisis en profundidad del material recogido en GLISSANDO permitirá en un futuro próximo concretar más estas conclusiones iniciales.
Entre la oralidad y la escritura: situación comunicativa, estructura formal y registros en la manifestación discursiva del rap español
Authors: Jiménez Calderón Francisco
Published: June 2022

Este trabajo parte de la hipótesis de que el rap español constituye un género discursivo consolidado, y que cuenta, por tanto, con los elementos habituales en todo género. Entre ellos, se estudian aquí la situación comunicativa, la estructura formal y los registros empleados. Se ha analizado alrededor de quinientos textos aplicando las herramientas que proporciona el análisis del discurso, fundamentalmente centradas en la naturaleza de los participantes y del contexto comunicativo; en las piezas discursivas que conforman los textos y que sustentan la estabilidad de su estructura; y, por último, en el contraste de los registros utilizados, que aporta gran parte de la singularidad del género. Los resultados muestran una estructura formal estable, aunque con variantes, y una combinación de formas coloquiales, figuras retóricas –en ocasiones muy elaboradas– y una terminología propia, lo cual permite asociar esta manifestación discursiva al ámbito literario oral; la gran particularidad de los textos radica en la paradoja que supone la convivencia entre su elaboración escrita y su recitado oral, con referencias a ambos medios que se entrecruzan con total naturalidad.
Dialogicidad en contextos cruzados. Conciencia metapragmática y significado procedimental en el humor gráfico de Quino
Authors: Penas Ibáñez M.ª Azucena
Published: June 2022

El presente artículo parte de la categorización inestable del concepto de humor y en él se procede a una breve revisión del enfoque comunicativo pragmático, con el fin de investigar la dialogicidad en contextos cruzados en el humor gráfico de Quino. Se estudia el significado procedimental en dos casos concretos: uno simple de intratextualidad/intertextualidad y otro complejo de hipertextualidad/intratextualidad/intertextualidad/transtextualidad, mediante el doble punto de vista prospectivo/retrospectivo que permite rescribir enunciados jerarquizados.
Adaptación del formato chat para la transcripción y codificación de los datos de lenguaje patológico del corpus 'PERLA'
Authors: Fernández-Urquiza Maite , Gallardo Paúls Beatriz
Published: June 2022

En este trabajo se ofrece una adaptación del formato de transcripción y codificación CHAT (Codes for the Human Analysis of Transcripts) que ha sido específicamente desarrollada para posibilitar el trasvase del corpus PerLA de lenguaje patológico a la base de datos internacional TALKBANK. Para ello, se requiere la adopción de un formato estandarizado de transcripción y codificación compatible con el software CLAN (Computerized Language ANalysis) de análisis automatizado de lenguaje. Este formato admite, sin embargo, un grado considerable de variación en la elección de las convenciones empleadas, en función de la naturaleza de los datos, la perspectiva del estudio para el que el corpus haya sido elaborado, y los fenómenos que se considere relevante codificar. La adaptación que ofrecemos persigue resultar de utilidad para la codificación de muestras de lenguaje que reflejan un rango considerablemente amplio de déficits lingüísticos, con el fin de realizar estudios de naturaleza pragmática.
Una propuesta de clasificación de los estilos discursivos en narraciones de experiencia personal desde el punto de vista sociolingüístico
Authors: Guerrero González Silvana
Published: June 2022

En este trabajo se presenta una conceptualización de la variación a nivel narrativo, en términos de una propuesta de estilos discursivos derivada del análisis de una muestra de 192 narraciones de experiencia personal de hablantes de Santiago de Chile. Asimismo, se correlacionan los distintos estilos discursivos relevados con las variables sexo, edad y grupo socioeconómico de los sujetos. Se trabaja con el concepto de estilo de Coupland (2007) y se concluye que las narraciones de experiencia personal de los hablantes santiaguinos se construyen con base en un estilo que es elaborado evaluativo, es decir, se caracterizan por ser +detallistas, –complejas y +evaluativas. Además, se comprueba que solo el factor grupo socioeconómico mostró un comportamiento estadísticamente significativo en correlación con tipos de estilo propuestos.
Sobre datos conversacionales en la evaluación de la afasia: déficit lingüístico y función ejecutiva
Authors: Sacristán Carlos Hernández
Published: June 2022

El uso de datos conversacionales ha sido considerado de gran interés para la renovación de los criterios de evaluación y rehabilitación de la afasia. Asumiendo este punto de partida, el objetivo específico del presente artículo será examinar la interacción conversacional en tanto que ilustrativa de habilidades metacognitivas asociadas a la conducta verbal que se preservan en sujetos con afasia. Estas habilidades se sustentan supuestamente en un dominio de intersección entre la base cognitiva de la conducta verbal y la función ejecutiva o, en otros términos, un dominio de interrelación entre lengu- aje y procesos psicológicos superiores (cf. Hernández Sacristan, Rosell Clari, Serra Alegre y Quiles-Climent, 2012). Se mostrarán diferencias y aspectos comunes tras examinar tres sujetos afásicos (dos casos fluentes y uno no fluente) en interacción conversacional –básicamente– libre con familiares y/o entrevistadores. La dimensión metacognitiva de la conducta verbal incluye habilidades tales como la inhibición estratégica del uso lingüístico, el control de procedimientos semióticos concurrentes (por ejemplo, gestualidad fónica y kinésica), la actividad co-construccional, el decir referido, etc. Los datos conversacionales ofrecen el contexto natural para la expresión de la actividad metacognitiva asociada al lengu- aje. Las habilidades sometidas a análisis se han considerado también de utilidad para el desarrollo de programas terapé- uticos (cf. Hernández Sacristán y Rosell Clari, 2013).
Un recurso de oralidad en la prédica: el uso de la interjección en sermonarios del siglo XVIII
Authors: Porcar Miralles Margarita
Published: June 2022

Este artículo analiza las funciones que desempeña la interjección en sermones del siglo XVIII, cuya única finalidad era la predicación desde el púlpito. El discurso retórico encuentra en la oralidad su modelo de construcción. De ahí la frecuencia de este elemento de naturaleza pragmática en los sermones: la interjección, entre otros elementos lingüísticos que caracterizan este género oral, se convierte en índice del intercambio comunicativo entre los dos protagonistas del discurso: predicador y auditorio. Intensifica la dimensión interaccional del acto de la enunciación. La elevada presencia de expresiones interjectivas en textos del siglo XVIII debe ponerse en relación con el contexto social de la época y el tono funcional de la homilía, esencialmente recriminatorio y moralizante. En la tercera parte del presente estudio se recopilan las interjecciones propias más utilizadas y se ejemplifican las funciones básicas: actitudinal, interaccional y fática.

Knitted wound dressings based on synthetic polymers (primarily lavsan) have some advantages over dressings based on natural materials (cotton, etc.) – first of all, they cause less irritation of wound surfaces due to the absence of microvilli. However, during storage one can see changes in the properties of lavsan dressings, i. e. the material becomes more rigid. Under the present work, it has been shown that these changes are caused by the significantly increased crystallinity of lavsan fibers during exposure to natural environment. To reduce lavsan crystallinity, it is recommended to process the material with mixtures of polyethylene glycols which are popular ointment bases.

A clinical case of successful surgical treatment of extensive purulent-necrotic lesion of the foot and lower leg in a comorbid patient is described in the article. The lesion had a neuroischemic form of the diabetic foot syndrome. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of modern techniques for closing extensive soft tissue defects by the combined use of acellular dermal matrices based on collagen and chitosan in the treatment of complex postoperative wounds.

Background:

Schwannomatosis (SWN) is genetically similar to neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) and represents a NF2 gene mutation. Previous studies have shown that these mutations in both neurons and Schwann cells can lead to the development of schwannomas after nerve crush injuries. Here, we reviewed the potential pathoanatomical mechanisms for the development of a trauma-induced spinal schwannomas in a 55-year-old male with SWN.

Case Description:

A 49-year-old male had originally undergone a L3–L5 lumbar laminectomy for stenosis; the schwannomas seen on the preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were not resected. Now at age 55, he newly presented with low back pain and numbness in the left L5 dermatome, and he was diagnosed with an L4 vertebral level cauda equina tumor on MRI. Following gross-total resection, the histopathological assessment revealed a Ki-67 labeling index 5–10% in hotspots (i.e., slightly higher than the normal range of schwannomas) and a 20% mosaic loss of SMARCB1. Based on these criteria, he was diagnosed as having SWN.

Conclusion:

In this patient with SWN, compression/physical trauma to nerves of the cauda equina during the L3–L5 laminectomy 6 years ago likely caused the progression of schwannoma.
Long-term recurrence after surgery for schwannoma of the cauda equina

Published: June 2022

Background:

Cauda equina tumors are rare primary spinal tumors. Histologically, the most common tumor arising from the cauda equina is a schwannoma. However, little is known about the long-term postoperative outcomes of cauda equina schwannoma. Here, we reviewed the median-to-long-term postoperative outcomes of eight of our own patients with schwannomas of the cauda equina.

Methods:

Between 2007 and 2020, we, retrospectively, reviewed eight patients with cauda equina schwannomas (CESs) undergoing nine operations at our institution. There were five males and three females averaging 56.5 years of age who were followed for over 40 postoperative months. The study included assessment of the following variables: the modified McCormick scale, tumor size, location, extent of resection, treatment of the tumor involving nerve roots, and postoperative observational follow-up.

Results:

Gross-total resection was achieved in all eight patients; none received adjuvant therapy. The involved nerve roots were completely sacrificed in seven patients and partially resected in one. During a median follow-up of 108 months, only one patient sustained a tumor recurrence 164 months following the index surgery.

Conclusion:

CESs may recur more than 10 years after the original surgery. Radical resection of the tumor, including complete removal of the involved nerve root during the index surgery, and long-term postoperative follow-up is, therefore, essential.
Treatment of pituitary adenoma with spontaneous cerebrospinal rhinorrhea using nasoseptal flap, two case reports
Authors: Kang Beom Mo , Oh Hyuk-Jin , Ryu Kwang-Hui , Ahn Jae-Min
Published: June 2022

Background:

Postoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakages are well documented, but pituitary adenoma with spontaneous CSF rhinorrhea as the initial symptoms are extremely rare. The objective of this study is to report two rare cases of pituitary adenoma with spontaneous CSF rhinorrhea successfully operated by endoscopic transsphenoidal approach with vascularized nasoseptal flap (NSF).

Case Description:

A 70-year-old woman presented with a 6-month history of watery rhinorrhea and posterior nasal drip that worsened when her head leaning forward. Sella magnetic resonance image (MRI) demonstrated pituitary macroadenoma (3.4 × 2.7 cm) invading cavernous sinus, clivus, and sphenoid sinus. A 47-year-old woman presented with a 10-month history of watery rhinorrhea and posterior nasal drip. Sella MRI demonstrated pituitary macroadenoma (6.3 × 4.6 cm) invading cavernous sinus, clivus, sphenoid sinus, and middle fossa. Both patients underwent endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal operation and skull base reconstruction with vascularized NSF. The postoperative clinical course was uneventful and CSF rhinorrhea disappeared completely.

Conclusion:

Pituitary adenoma should be suspected if there is a watery CSF rhinorrhea that occurs without a history of trauma or nasal disease. In addition, effective treatment can be performed using NSF, a technique for endoscopic skull base reconstruction.
Superior sagittal sinus dural arteriovenous fistula with changes in angiographic findings associated with contiguous parasagittal meningioma: A case report
Authors: Nakazawa Takahiko , Aihara Masanori , Mizuno Hiroyuki , Yamaguchi Rei , Yoshimoto Yuhei
Published: June 2022

Background:

Meningioma and dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) located at the same site are rare. The present case demonstrated the transformation of tumor feeding vessels into the pial feeder of the dAVF over time, which may help to elucidate the pathogenesis of tumor-associated dAVF.

Case Description:

A 71-year-old man presented with convulsion. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging showed a right parasagittal sinus meningioma invading the superior sagittal sinus (SSS). Bilateral external carotid angiography showed dAVF at the SSS, near the site of tumor invasion. The right internal carotid angiography showed tumor staining from the anterior cerebral artery with intra-tumor arteriovenous shunting, with stagnation of tumor blood flow, suggesting impairment of perfusion to the SSS. Four years after the initial diagnosis, the patient was admitted to hospital with status epilepticus, and MR imaging showed an enlarged tumor. Carotid angiography revealed transformation of the tumor feeders to the pial feeder of the dAVF. The findings of shunting to the SSS had intensified, and stenosis had occurred in the posterior third of the SSS. The venous return showed retrograde flow anteriorly to the SSS. The patient underwent endovascular embolization and tumor resection. The shunt had disappeared.

Conclusion:

This report supports the proposal that impaired venous return is an important factor in the shunt occurrence of dAVF. Neurosurgeons should consider that cases of meningioma invading the venous sinuses may be complicated by dAVF and changes may occur over time.
