Authors: Ornon Gregory , Ziltener Jean-Luc , Fritschy Daniel , Menetrey Jacques 
Published: November 2020

Abstract

Background
Ice hockey injuries epidemiology is still poorly understood and very few studies are focused on it, especially about professional players.

Methods
Our prospective study collected all injuries occurring on ice during practice and games over 7 years (2006–2013) in a professional hockey team playing in the 1st division championship in Switzerland.

Results
During the 7 seasons, we recorded a total of 525 injuries and 190 injuries with time loss (TL).
Mean injuries incidence was 5.93 (95% CI 5.28 to 6.27) injuries/1000 h/player and with time loss 2.14 (95% CI 1.79 to 2.39) injuries/1000 h/player.
The lower limb was the most affected part of the body, with a total of 40.4% of all injuries, mostly knee Medial Collateral Ligament tear and muscle adductors/abdominal sprain. For the upper limb, shoulder was the most affected joint with mostly acromioclavicular sprain and shoulder dislocation.
Forwards had a significant (p < 0.05) higher risk than defensemen for knee Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) tear. There was no significant difference in the concussion risk between forwards and defensemen, but defensemen had a significant higher risk (p < 0.05) to have a more severe concussion.

Conclusion
This study provides a better understanding about professional ice hockey epidemiology, which is still insufficiently researched and understood. We also found some significant risk factors, being a forward for knee MCL tear, being a defensemen for concussion severity.
Concussion program prevention seems to be effective but it is crucial to continue the follow up of concussion on long term and expand the surveillance system to all the League.
Exploring the mRNA expression level of RELN in peripheral blood of schizophrenia patients before and after antipsychotic treatment
Authors: Yin Jiajun , Lu Yana , Yu Shui , Dai Zhanzhan , Zhang Fuquan , Yuan Jianmin 
Published: November 2020

Abstract

Background
The Reelin (RELN) gene encodes the protein reelin, which is a large extracellular matrix glycoprotein that plays a key role in brain development. Additionally, this protein may be involved in memory formation, neurotransmission, and synaptic plasticity, which have been shown to be disrupted in schizophrenia (SCZ). A decreasing trend in the expression of RELN mRNA in the brain and peripheral blood of SCZ patients has been observed. There is a need to determine whether changes in RELN mRNA expression in SCZ patients are the result of long-term antipsychotic treatment rather than the etiological characteristics of schizophrenia. The expression levels of RELN mRNA in the peripheral blood of 48 healthy controls and 30 SCZ patients before and after 12-weeks of treatment were measured using quantitative real-time PCR.

Results
The expression levels of RELN mRNA in the SCZ group were significantly lower than that of healthy controls; however, after 12-weeks of antipsychotic treatment, RELN mRNA levels were significantly increased in the SCZ group.

Conclusion
The up-regulation of RELN mRNA expression was current in SCZ patients after antipsychotic treatment, suggesting that the changes in RELN mRNA expression were related to the effect of the antipsychotic treatment.

Authors: Shalaby Amr Said , Sadik Sadik Abdel Maseeh , Mahmoud Dalia Abdel Moneim 
Published: November 2020

AbstractBackgroundThe rate of occurrence of psychiatric morbidities like anxiety, depression, perceived stress, and the overall quality of life are very high among female patients with obesity; therefore, our study investigates such variables before and after weight loss in female patients on diet restriction; this can help obesity-multidisciplinary teams target these psychiatric correlates to reach a more satisfactory outcome.ResultsAnxiety, depression, and perceived stress scores decreased significantly in parallel to the weight loss reported (p< 0.0001). Except for social functioning, all other domains of quality of life improved significantly after weight loss. Those with higher education level showed significantly lower stress, anxiety, and depression scores before weight loss compared to married and highly educated ones respectively. After weight loss, highly educated participants showed lower perceived stress and depression scores than those with middle education.ConclusionsAnxiety, depression, and perceived stress factors are significantly decreased after weight reduction with an improved quality of life as well compared to their scores prior.
A molecular and cellular analysis of human embryonic optic fissure closure related to the eye malformation coloboma
Authors: Patel Aara , Anderson Glenn , Galea Gabriel L. , Balys Monika , Sowden Jane C. 
Published: November 2020

ABSTRACT
Ocular coloboma is a congenital eye malformation, resulting from a failure in optic fissure closure (OFC) and causing visual impairment. There has been little study of the epithelial fusion process underlying closure in the human embryo and coloboma aetiology remains poorly understood. We performed RNAseq of cell populations isolated using laser capture microdissection to identify novel human OFC signature genes and probe the expression profile of known coloboma genes, along with a comparative murine analysis. Gene set enrichment patterns showed conservation between species. Expression of genes involved in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition was transiently enriched in the human fissure margins during OFC at days 41-44. Electron microscopy and histological analyses showed that cells transiently delaminate at the point of closure, and produce cytoplasmic protrusions, before rearranging to form two continuous epithelial layers. Apoptosis was not observed in the human fissure margins. These analyses support a model of human OFC in which epithelial cells at the fissure margins undergo a transient epithelial-to-mesenchymal-like transition, facilitating cell rearrangement to form a complete optic cup.
Auftragsklärung im Coaching – eine Multi-Stakeholder-Perspektive
Authors: Squarra Annika , Webers Thomas 
Published: November 2020

ZusammenfassungDem Personalentwicklungsinstrument Coaching wird im Unternehmenskontext eine immer größere Bedeutung zugeschrieben. Dabei wird jedem Einsatz eine Auftragsklärung vorgeschaltet, in der verschiedene Stakeholder – Coach, Auftraggeber*In und Klient*In – involviert sind. Hierbei handelt es sich um eine Verhandlungssituation, die einen Nährboden für Konflikte bieten kann. Strategien der Stakeholder sowie ihr subjektives Erleben stellen in diesem Zusammenhang eine empirische Forschungslücke dar und werden in dieser qualitativen Interviewstudie mit Expert*Innen untersucht. Aufgrund der Vielfalt an betrachteten Aspekten ergibt sich aus den Daten der Analyse keine eindeutige Kernstrategie, darüber hinaus sind die Ergebnisse teils widersprüchlich. Die Coaches nehmen gemäß eigener Aussage eine vorwiegend parteiische Haltung gegenüber dem*der Klient*In ein und betrachten den*die Auftraggeber*In als Gegenspieler*In in der betrieblichen Arena. Die Auftraggebenden ihrerseits äußern, in der Interaktion mit Coach und Klient*In als wohlwollende Teamplayer zu agieren. Die Klient*Innen differenzieren zwischen diesen Darstellungen von Coaches und Auftraggebenden und ihren eigenen Wahrnehmungen. Es eröffnen sich letztlich Interpretationsspielräume, sodass weiterer Forschungsbedarf offensichtlich wird.
Surgical benefit of mandibular morphometric analysis: A new tool to standardize mandibular reconstruction
Authors: Prevost Alice , Delanoe Franck , Cavallier Zoé , Muller Samuel , Lopez Raphael , Lauwers Frédéric 
Published: November 2020

Purpose
The gold-standard for reconstruction of large mandibular defects is the use of free flaps of vascularized autologous bone with the fibula as the preferred donor site. The use of "custom cutting guides" for this indication is becoming increasingly prevalent. But cost of the procedure averages around 2,500 dollars per patient excluding treatment and entails selection criteria. We think it is possible to standardize mandibular reconstructions from an anatomical mean. The objective of this study was to perform a mandibular morphometric analysis in order to obtain a set of "mean" measurements, which can be used by all surgeons interested in mandibular reconstruction.

Methods
We performed a morphometric analysis consisting of three-dimensional mandibular reconstructions of 30 men and 30 women. Several reference points were set and defined to evaluate specific lengths and angles of interest. We conducted an intra and inter-sexual descriptive analysis of measurements obtained.

Results
We did not identify any major intra-sexual differences within each group. The gonial angle is more open in women and the measurements characterizing the basilar contour are more prominent in men. We did not identify any differences in alveolar region parameters.

Conclusion
The results of this study constitute a morphological tool for surgeons, from bone graft to free flap. These results also confirm us that the use of «custom cutting guides» for mandibular reconstruction may be excessive. It is pertinent to examine the value of "custom made" mandibular reconstructions since the differences observed are of the order of millimeters.
Individual and structural barriers to Latin American refugees and asylum seekers' access to primary and mental healthcare in Chile: A qualitative study
Authors: Carreño-Calderón Alejandra , Cabieses Baltica , Correa-Matus M. Eliana 
Published: November 2020

Background
Since 2010 there has been a growing population of refugees and asylum seekers in Latin America. This study sought to investigate the perceived experiences and healthcare needs of refugees and asylum seekers of Latin American origin in Chile in order to identify main barriers to healthcare and provide guidance on allied challenges for the public healthcare system.

Methods
Descriptive qualitative case study with semi-structured interviews applied to refugees and asylum seekers (n = 8), healthcare workers (n = 4), and members of Non-Governmental Organizations and religious foundations focused on working with refugees and asylum seekers in Chile (n = 2).

Results
Although Chilean law guarantees access to all levels of healthcare for the international migrant population, the specific healthcare needs of refugees and asylum seekers were not adequately covered. Primary care and mental healthcare were the most required types of service for participants, yet they appeared to be the most difficult to access. Difficulties in social integration -including access to healthcare, housing, and education- upon arrival and lengthy waiting times for legal status of refugees also presented great barriers to effective healthcare provision and wellbeing. Healthcare workers and members of organizations indicated the need for more information about refugee and asylum-seeking populations, their rights and conditions, as well as more effective and tailored healthcare interventions for them, especially for emergency mental healthcare situations.

Conclusions
All participants perceived that there was disinformation among institutional actors regarding the healthcare needs of refugees and asylum seekers in Chile. They also perceived that there were barriers to access to primary care and mental healthcare, which might lead to overuse of emergency services. This study highlights a sense of urgency to protect the social and healthcare needs of refugees and asylum seekers in Latin America.
Prevalence and associated factors of premenstrual syndrome among women of the reproductive age group in Ethiopia: Systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Geta Teshome Gensa , Woldeamanuel Gashaw Garedew , Dassa Tamirat Tesfaye 
Published: November 2020

IntroductionPremenstrual syndrome is a clinical condition characterised by the cyclic occurrence of physical and emotional symptoms, which can interfere with normal activity. It significantly affects the health-related quality of life and can result in decreased work productivity. The prevalence of premenstrual syndrome varies widely in different countries and different regions of the same country. Thus, this study was aimed to estimate the pooled prevalence of premenstrual syndrome and its associated factors among women in Ethiopia.Materials and methodsPublished studies searched from electronic databases such as PubMed/Medline, google scholars, HINARI, Science Direct, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE were used. All studies done among women of the reproductive age group in Ethiopia and reported in the English language were included. The current study was reported using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Two authors extracted the data independently by using Microsoft excel extraction format and transported to STATA 14 software for analysis. I2test was used to assess heterogeneity between the studies. A random-effect model was computed to estimate the pooled prevalence and associated factors of premenstrual syndrome. The prevalence and odds ratio with 95% confidence interval (CI) were presented using a forest plot.ResultsAfter careful screening of 33 studies, nine studies were included in our systematic review and meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of premenstrual syndrome in Ethiopia was found to be 53% (95% CI: 40.64, 65.36). Subgroup analysis by university versus high school showed a pooled prevalence of 53.87% (95% CI: 40.97, 67.60) and 56.19% (95% CI: 6.80, 105.58), respectively. The pooled odds ratio shows that age at menarche, menstrual pattern and hormonal contraceptive use had no statistically significant association with premenstrual syndrome.ConclusionMore than half of the women under reproductive age group were experiencing premenstrual syndrome in Ethiopia.
Comparative analysis of clinical, physiological, temperamental and personality characteristics of elderly subjects and young subjects with asthma
Authors: Panek Michał G. , Karbownik Michał S. , Kuna Piotr B. 
Published: November 2020

Background
Asthma is a heterogeneous disease of a complex etiology in which genetic, environmental and personality variables are important factors determining the development of complicated strategies related to coping with stress and temperament traits. Our thesis is that coping styles in asthmatic patients are modified by the environment (chronic inflammation and stress) which affects individual temperament traits in the course of time. Thus, patient age is one of factors which determine the clinical image of asthma and its natural history.

Aim
The aim of the study was to evaluate the variables describing stress coping styles and temperament in young (18 to 35 years old) and elderly asthmatics (aged ≥60 years).

Material and methods
A total of 200 patients, 104 elderly and 96 young asthmatics were enrolled in the study. Apart from medical examination, the following tests were performed in all subjects: the Formal Characteristics of Behavior- Temperament Inventory (FCB-TI), Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS), Beck Depression Inventory, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) Scale.

Results
Elderly patients with asthma exhibited higher intensity of anxiety as a trait, a higher level of depression and experienced dyspnea, as well as higher levels of stress coping strategies such as Avoidance-Oriented Coping (AOC), Distraction Seeking (DS) and Social Diversion (SD) compared to young asthmatics. In elderly patients, Perseverance and Sensory Sensitivity traits have been observed to decline with the duration and development of asthma at later life stages as opposed to young asthmatics, in whom these temperament characteristics are elevated.

Conclusions
Asthma is a heterogeneous disease of a complex etiopathogenesis that has a complex interplay with mental health. The present study confirms a relationship between age and stress coping strategies as well as temperament traits.
Small hiatal hernia and postprandial reflux after vertical sleeve gastrectomy: A multiethnic Asian cohort
Authors: Lye Tiffany Jian Ying , Ng Kiat Rui , Tan Alexander Wei En , Syn Nicholas , Woo Shi Min , Lim Eugene Kee Wee , Eng Alvin Kim Hock , Chan Weng Hoong , Tan Jeremy Tian Hui , Lim Chin Hong 
Published: November 2020

Background
Laparoscopic vertical sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a popular bariatric procedure performed in Asia, as obesity continues to be on the rise in our population. A major problem faced is the development of de novo gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after LSG, which can be chronic and debilitating. In this study, we aim to assess the relationship between the presence of small hiatal hernia (HH) and the development of postoperative GERD, as well as to explore the correlation between GERD symptoms after LSG and timing of meals. In doing so, we hope to gain a better understanding about the type of reflux that occurs after LSG and take a step closer towards effectively managing this difficult to treat condition.

Methods
We retrospectively reviewed data collected from patients who underwent LSG in our hospital from Dec 2008 to Dec 2016. All patients underwent preoperative upper GI endoscopy, during which the identification of hiatal hernia takes place. Patients' information and reflux symptoms are recorded using standardized questionnaires, which are administered preoperatively, and again during postoperative follow up visits.

Results
Of the 255 patients, 125 patients (74%) developed de novo GERD within 6 months post-sleeve gastrectomy. The rate of de novo GERD was 57.1% in the group with HH, and 76.4% in the group without HH. Adjusted analysis showed no significant association between HH and GERD (RR = 0.682; 95% CI 0.419 to 1.111; P = 0.125). 88% of the patients who developed postoperative GERD reported postprandial symptoms occurring only after meals, and the remaining 12% of patients reported no correlation between the timing of GERD symptoms and meals.

Conclusion
There is no direct correlation between the presence of small hiatal hernia and GERD symptoms after LSG. Hence, the presence of a small sliding hiatal hernia should not be exclusion for sleeve gastrectomy. Electing not to perform concomitant hiatal hernia repair also does not appear to result in higher rates of postoperative or de novo GERD.

Published: November 2020

INTRODUCTION:
We aimed to investigate the effect of recent short-term weight gain on the incidence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in nonobese (body mass index < 25 kg/m2) participants.

METHODS:
This retrospective cohort study included nonobese individuals who participated in an annual health checkup between 2008 and 2018 in Tokyo, Japan. We estimated the multivariable adjusted hazard ratio for the development of NAFLD diagnosed via ultrasound after a 3-kg unit gain in weight measured at a 2-year landmark time point postbaseline. Multivariable adjustments included weight change from the age of 20 and other relevant confounding factors. Sensitivity analyses using additional landmark time points at 1, 3, 4, and 5 years postbaseline and time-dependent Cox proportional hazards regressions were performed.

RESULTS:
Among the 27,064 nonobese participants (142,699 person years of follow-up), 2,895 were diagnosed with NAFLD. Approximately 90% of the patients with NAFLD maintained their nonobese status before disease diagnosis. The adjusted hazard ratio for the development of NAFLD (for a 3-kg unit of weight gain) at the 2-year landmark time point postbaseline was 1.60 (95% confidence interval, 1.46–1.76) in nonobese men and 1.66 (95% confidence interval, 1.51–1.83) in nonobese women. This association was maintained in the sensitivity analyses.

DISCUSSION:
Recent short-term weight gain is an independent risk factor for NAFLD development in nonobese men and women. Clinicians should be mindful of the association between weight gain and NAFLD onset, even in the nonobese population.

The Struggle with(in) Leontius’ Soul
Authors: Saldaña Eduardo 
Published: November 2020

AbstractInRepublic4, Plato’s Socrates argues that there are three elements in the soul: the rational, the spirited, and the appetitive. This paper focuses on the argument distinguishing spirit from appetite in the story of Leontius. I shall argue that the rational element first opposes Leontius’ appetite and, when appetite overpowers reason, then Leontius’ spirited part opposes the appetitive. Consequently, there is a kind of disgust that would be appropriately characterized as rational; and, drawing on this consequence, I suggest that the primary target of early ethical education is the rational element of the soul.
»...l’aere ne tremesse.«
Authors: Nelting David 
Published: November 2020

Riassunto
Con questo saggio si intende in primo luogo mostrare come Dante si conformi all’osservazione fisica di Alberto Magno, secondo cui l’orecchio umano sente solo quello che si trasmette »cum aere tremente«, evocando con l’emistichio »l’aere ne tremesse« (Inf. I, 48 secondo la grafia dell’Edizione Nazionale) un suono ben preciso: il ruggito del leone, che ostacola il cammino di Dante, rappresentando il peccato capitale della superbia. L’immagine dell’aria tremante attesta così sia la forte tendenza dantesca a produrre effetti sinestetici sia la sua integrazione delle dottrine fisiche contemporanee nel discorso poetico. In secondo luogo, l’emistichio sarà preso in considerazione come citazione del sonetto »Chi è questa che vèn« di Guido Cavalcanti. Si mostrerà così come Dante impieghi l’immagine dell’aria tremante, proprio perché citazione di Cavalcanti, a fini già attestabili per la Vita Nova: per distanziarsi dal predecessore, evidenziando la necessità di superare quel genere di lirica d’amore profana e così fondare una nuova poetica ‘sacrale’.

Identifying discourse patterns in social media comments on “politically correct” language
Authors: Hartmann Stefan 
Published: November 2020

AbstractThis paper presents an analysis of online comments on German newspaper articles dealing with non-discriminating language use. Combining bottom-up quantitative methods with qualitative analyses allows for identifying recurrent discourse patterns as well as typical narratives that play a role in this debate. I argue that if a major goal of critical cognitive linguistics is to reach out to the general public, understanding the appeal of such narratives (which are, obviously, often factually wrong) is just as important as identifying and refuting them.
