Published: August 2021

У статті розглядаються пробеми у діагностиці стенотично-оклюзивних уражень глибоких вен тазу та нижньої порожнистої вени при посттромботичній хворобі. На даний момент діагостика даної патології має різноплановий характер, хоча стратегія хірургічного лікування та вибір тактики у багатьох випадках залежить також від повноти і специфічності отриманої діагностичної інформації. Різноманітні інструментальні методики мають неоднакові рівні точності та повноти отримуваної інформації. Для визначення оптимальної схеми діагностики на практичному досвіді були застосовані та порівняні між собою найбільш доступні та вживані методи інструментальної діагностики у відповідності з Рекомендаціями американського коледжу радіології, а також оцінено їх значимість у плануванні майбутніх хірургічних чи ендоваскулярних втручань, розглянуті переваги та недоліки кожного з методів.

Abstract
Crisis situations, which cause disturbances in the daily routine of the individual can contribute to the development of mental problems. On the 26th of February, 2020, the first confirmed case of COVID-19 was reported in Romania. On the 16th of March, the President of Romania declared The State of Emergency. The following day, by Order of the Ministry of the Internal Affairs medical students starting with the 4th year of study were to be recruited, on a voluntary basis, to support activities in the Emergency Rooms, if needed. Numerous medical students volunteered. The medical students were exposed to online learning and the possibility of being recruited as volunteers in COVID-19 units. In April 2020, we created and distributed an online survey via www.psysafe.org, which collected data on demographics, personal status of infection, and general mental health, including medication and substance use, sleeping problems in the previous week, perceived stress in the previous month, and burnout in the previous two months. We translated and adapted 2 questionnaires to assess the COVID-19 related anxiety and fear. The participants were Romanian medical students. Data was statistically analysed with SPSS 20. Out of 550 surveys filled, we analysed 545 valid surveys. The mean age of the respondents was 21.66 (±2.55) years, with 81.7% female (445) and 18.3% male (100). 91.6% of the respondents declared that they were never diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder. Coffee was used on a daily basis by 53.8% of the students, with tobacco coming in second in 19.4%. Female students perceived a higher level of stress and showed a higher level of burnout. Female students scored higher for the anxiety and fear related to Covid-19. Medical students with mental health history scored higher on perceived stress, burnout, anxiety and fear related to COVID-19. Perceived stress indicated a level of moderate stress regardless of the mental history status. For all students, the burnout value indicated that some attention was needed, as they might had been candidates to burnout. Moreover, students diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder during the pandemic showed signs that they were on the road to burnout, with changes needed to be done at the time. There were statistically significant positive correlation, of various degrees between perceived stress, burnout, anxiety and fear related to COVID-19, with the strongest one observed for the perceived stress and burnout, in Romanian medical students.

Authors: Lebădă Ioana-Codruţa , Măerean Elena Teodora , Inţă Roxana-Florina 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
Glucocorticoids are one of the most common classes of drugs used to treat a diverse variety of inflammatory and autoimmune disorders. Despite their effects, long-term therapy exposes patients to multiple side effects, such as weight gain, high blood pressure, adrenal insufficiency, osteoporosis and a high risk of infections. We present the case of a 61-year-old female with osteoporosis secondary to glucocorticoid therapy, adrenal insufficiency, new-onset diabetes mellitus and mixed dyslipidemia, manifestations that occurred as a result of self-administration of Medrol for one year. The patient presented to the hospital for thoracic back pain, being sent to the endocrinologist due to radiological changes suggestive of vertebral compressions.
The Role of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance in Patients with Dilated Cardiomiopathy

Published: August 2021

Abstract
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) has an increased risk of heart failure, malignant ventricular arrhythmias, including sudden cardiac death, being the most common cause of heart transplantation. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is the gold standard technique for assessing left and right ventricular function; the major advantage of CMR is the possibility of tissue characterization, highlighting the replacement of myocardial fibrosis (late gadolinium enhancement - LGE technique) and the interstitial and perivascular reactive fibrosis (mapping techniques - T1 mapping, T2-mapping, T2 * -mapping). Myocardial fibrosis pattern helps to establish the DCM aetiology and has prognostic and therapeutic implications. LGE presence is associated with a weaker therapeutic response and an increased risk of complex ventricular arrhythmias. At the same time, LGE absence associated with the presence of reactive fibrosis quantified by mapping techniques and especially by increasing myocardial extracellular volume, identifies patients with potentially favourable response to optimal drug therapy and cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
The efficacy of knee arthroscopy in the treatment of osteoarthritis has been questioned during the last years by many studies, which demonstrated its lack of effect. The aim of our review was to summarize recent data published in the scientific literature upon the conversion rate from arthroscopy to total arthroplasty in patients with knee osteoarthritis. We conducted a search of scientific articles discussing the association between arthroscopy and total knee arthroplasty in patients with osteoarthritis, using PubMed/Medline databases. The following parameters were evaluated: age and gender distribution of the patients, indications for arthroscopy, conversion to arthroplasty, time interval between the two procedures. We concluded that the current literature underlines the poor efficacy of arthroscopy for degenerative meniscus and cartilaginous pathology. The high rate of progression to knee arthroplasty, especially among older patients with comorbidities should determine specialists to evaluate the risks and benefits associated with arthroscopic surgery in these cases.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
Soil quality issues, together with issues related to healthy food, are becoming key areas of interest at the European level. Both spheres play an important role in the formulation of EU policies such as the EU Common Agricultural Policy, EU Agri–environmental Policy, EU Food Policy but also EU Health Policy. For this reason, deepening knowledge and exchanging experiences in these areas seem to be necessary preconditions for finding ways to respond to current challenges and problems. The project “Quality Soil as a Pathway to Healthy Food in the EU”, acronym FOODIE, also reacts on the mentioned issues. The main aim of the project is to foster an expertise dialogue between the crucial experts (academics, public authorities, professionals from practice) in the field of food/feed management in the EU affecting the achieving the objectives of correlated EU policies and recently adopted European Green Deal.
The presented paper is of a disseminating nature and aims to acquaint the reader with the mentioned project.
Fern von Aleppo: Narrative Themenentfaltung im interkulturellen Kontext
Authors: Said Eman Mohamed Abdelfattah 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
In “Fern von Aleppo”, the Syrian author Faisal Hamdo, who left his home in 2014 and sought refuge in Germany, tells of his very personal integration experiences. The book represents a kind of intercultural communication. In his book, Faisal Hamdo, who sees himself as a “mediator between the worlds”, tries to give the German reader answers to many questions regarding Syrian culture. From a text linguistic point of view, this book identifies the narrative development that seems to be tailored to the intercultural context. Accordingly, the present article raises the following questions: Does the structure of classic narration differ from the structure of narration in an intercultural context? Which intercultural information units are presented in the text? How are they embedded in the narrative text? Which constituents of the narrative structure are suitable for realizing intercultural communication? Which communicative functions do the constituents of the narrative structure fulfill in an intercultural context?
The contribution sets itself the goal of analyzing the narrative structure to investigate how intercultural communication comes about through narration, how the intercultural information units are integrated into the constituents of the classic narrative structure so that they fulfill their communicative function, and to developa suitable analysis model.
(Transnationale) Migrationserfahrung in den Lebensgeschichten deutscher Ansiedler. Literarische Erinnerung an die Ansiedlung von Deutschen in Großpolen/ in der Provinz Posen/ in der Ostmark
Authors: Nowikiewicz Elżbieta 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
The incorporation of Greater Poland [in Polish: Wielkopolska] into the Kingdom of Prussia was the beginning of a direct neighbourhood of Poles and Germans in a relatively small area. This paper shall present the experiences of Prussian / German settlers in the Poznań Province which are based on autobiographical literary texts authored by officials and teachers (with their families) who came to this region. While reading these memoirs one can infer that they made efforts to “familiarise” new and ethnically foreign elements in the annexed territory. They cultivated and promoted their own culture here while concurrently not being too eager to participate in the culture and social life of the Polish locals. They manifest characteristic features typical of the colonist’s attitude. On the one hand, they present the country they colonise as foreign. On the other hand, they depict indigenous people whom they describe as individuals standing on a lower levelcivilisation-wise compared to the German “culture-bearers” who came here [“Kulturträger”].
The key issue in the discussed literary material of the long-term mobility of German families of officials and teachers allows to consider the following issues: How do the authors present migration to the Poznań Province and its effects? What stood in the way of building a sense of belonging and relationship between representatives of different nationalities in a new place? What does the studied autobiographical material say about the phenomenon of transnationality? Can one talk about transnational practices or their elements based on the specificity of the Poznań Province?

Abstract

Background
Traumatic brain injury is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The relationship between hyperoxia and outcomes in patients with TBI remains controversial. We assessed the effect of persistent hyperoxia on the neurological outcomes and survival of critically ill patients with moderate-severe TBI.

Method
This was a retrospective cohort study of all adults with moderate-severe TBI admitted to the ICU between 1st January 2016 and 31st December 2019 and who required invasive mechanical ventilation. Arterial blood gas data was recorded within the first 3 hours of intubation and then after 6-12 hours and 24-48 hours. The patients were divided into two categories: Group I had a PaO2 < 120mmHg on at least two ABGs undertaken in the first twelve hours post intubation and Group II had a PaO2 ≥ 120mmHg on at least two ABGs in the same period. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to assess predictors of hospital mortality and good neurologic outcome (Glasgow outcome score ≥ 4).

Results
The study included 309 patients: 54.7% (n=169) in Group I and 45.3% (n=140) in Group II. Hyperoxia was not associated with increased mortality in the ICU (20.1% vs. 17.9%, p=0.62) or hospital (20.7% vs. 17.9%, p=0.53), moreover, the hospital discharge mean (SD) Glasgow Coma Scale (11.0(5.1) vs. 11.2(4.9), p=0.70) and mean (SD) Glasgow Outcome Score (3.1(1.3) vs. 3.1(1.2), p=0.47) were similar. In multivariable logistic regression analysis, persistent hyperoxia was not associated with increased mortality (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 0.71, 95% CI 0.34-1.35, p=0.29). PaO2 within the first 3 hours was also not associated with mortality: 121-200mmHg: aOR 0.58, 95% CI 0.23-1.49, p=0.26; 201-300mmHg: aOR 0.66, 95% CI 0.27-1.59, p=0.35; 301-400mmHg: aOR 0.85, 95% CI 0.31-2.35, p=0.75 and >400mmHg: aOR 0.51, 95% CI 0.18-1.44, p=0.20; reference: PaO2 60-120mmHg within 3 hours. However, hyperoxia >400mmHg was associated with being less likely to have good neurological (GOS ≥4) outcome on hospital discharge (aOR 0.36, 95% CI 0.13-0.98, p=0.046; reference: PaO2 60-120mmHg within 3 hours.

Conclusion
In intubated patients with moderate-severe TBI, hyperoxia in the first 48 hours was not independently associated with hospital mortality. However, PaO2 >400mmHg may be associated with a worse neurological outcome on hospital discharge.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
Despite substantial advancements in diagnosis and specific medical therapy in pulmonary arterial hypertension patients’ management, this condition continues to represent a major cause of mortality worldwide. In pulmonary arterial hypertension, the continuous increase of pulmonary vascular resistance and rapid development of right heart failure determine a poor prognosis. Against targeted therapy, patients inexorable deteriorate over time. Pulmonary arterial hypertension patients with acute right heart failure who need intensive care unit admission present a complexity of the disease pathophysiology. Intensive care management challenges are multifaceted. Awareness of algorithms of right-sided heart failure monitoring in intensive care units, targeted pulmonary hypertension therapies, and recognition of precipitating factors, hemodynamic instability and progressive multisystem organ failure requires a multidisciplinary pulmonary hypertension team. This paper summarizes the management strategies of acute right-sided heart failure in pulmonary arterial hypertension adult cases based on recently available data.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
This study deals with the Fire Growth Rate Index (FIGRA) as a key fire characteristic of electrical cables (determined by a cone calorimeter) that allows to estimate their reaction to fire class. Three power (supply) electrical cables (reaction to fire class B2ca) were tested by a cone calorimeter using different heat fluxes of 20, 30, 40 a 50 kW·m−2. The cables were three-wire (cross-section of each wire was 1.5 mm2) with a nominal voltage of 0.6 kV (alternating current), resp. 1 kV (direct current). The cable sheaths were made of an ethylene copolymer filled with aluminum hydroxide. The beddings were made of an ethylene copolymer filled with a mixture of aluminum hydroxide and calcium carbonate. The conductor insulations of one electrical cable were made of crosslinked polyethylene and the conductor insulations of the other two electrical cables were made of an ethylene copolymer filled with aluminum hydroxide. FIGRA was determined per unit length and unit area of electrical cables. FIGRA increased with increasing heat flux. At a heat flux of 50 kW·m−2, all the electric cables examined showed a very similar FIGRA (from 0.19 to 0.21 kW·m−1·s−1 and 18.4 to 21.2 kW·m−1·s−1, respectively). Conversely, at a heat flux of 20 kW·m−2, the investigated cables showed greater FIGRA variance (in the range of 0.11 to 0.16 kW·m−1·s−1 or 10.8 to 16.2 kW·m−1·s−1).

Abstract
Polymeric materials, which are currently very often used in various industries, are often transported and stored in the form of granules before processing. This method has several advantages, but in most studies the test samples are modified to different shapes and dimensions. This paper is therefore focused on the initiation of selected granular plastics. Samples of five polymeric materials were exposed to an external heat flux from 20 kW.m−2 to 40 kW.m−2. A spark initiator was used to ignite the released gaseous products of thermal decomposition of the polymer sample. FTP (flow-time product) method was applied to the obtained parameter - time to ignition, from which other initiation parameters were determined. The critical heat flux was determined in the range of 5.0 kW.m−2 - 11.8 kW.m−2. Despite the relatively small thickness (4 mm), the samples behaved as thermally thick. During the measurement, thin surface layer melted, and the rest of the polymer remained in its original granulated form. Ignition temperatures were calculated according to the Stefan-Boltzmann’s law between 273 °C - 402 °C.
