Published: December 2024

Background
Oral health significantly influences overall well-being, health care costs, and quality of life. In Saudi Arabia, the burden of oral diseases, such as dental caries and periodontal disease, has increased over recent decades, driven by various lifestyle changes.

Objective
To explore the associations between proximal (direct) and distal (indirect) influences that affect oral pain (OP) and self-rated oral health (SROH) status in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) using an adapted conceptual framework.

Methods
This retrospective cross-sectional study used data from a national health survey conducted in KSA in 2017. The sample included adults (N=29,274), adolescents (N=9910), and children (N=11,653). Sociodemographic data, health characteristics, and access to oral health services were considered distal influences, while frequency and type of dental visits, tooth brushing frequency, smoking, and consumption of sweets and soft drinks were considered proximal influences. Path analysis modeling was used to estimate the direct, indirect, and total effects of proximal and distal influences on OP and SROH status.

Results
The mean age of adult respondents was 42.2 years; adolescents, 20.4 years; and children, 10.58 years. Despite OP reports from 39% of children, 48.5% of adolescents, and 47.1% of adults, over 87% across all groups rated their oral health as good, very good, or excellent. A higher frequency of tooth brushing showed a strong inverse relationship with OP and a positive correlation with SROH (P<.001). Frequent dental visits were positively associated with OP and negatively with SROH (P<.001). Sweet consumption increased OP in adolescents (β=0.033, P=.007) and negatively affected SROH in children (β=–0.086, P<.001), adolescents (β=–0.079, P<.001), and adults (β=–0.068, P<.001). Soft drink consumption, however, was associated with lower OP in adolescents (β=–0.034, P=.005) and improved SROH in adolescents (β=0.063, P<.001) and adults (β=0.068, P<.001). Smoking increased OP in adults (β=0.030, P<.001). Distal influences like higher education were directly linked to better SROH (β=0.046, P=.003) and less OP (indirectly through tooth brushing, β=–0.004, P<.001). For children, high household income correlated with less OP (β=–0.030, P=.02), but indirectly increased OP through other pathways (β=0.024, P=.003). Lack of access was associated with negative oral health measures (P<.001).

Conclusions
Among the KSA population, OP and SROH were directly influenced by many proximal and distal influences that had direct, indirect, or combined influences on OP and SROH status.

Published: December 2024

Introduction: Peri-operative glycemic control is an important factor for post-operative recovery and is well protocoled for diabetic patients in every setup. It is not always so with non-diabetic patients. This study aimed to observe the pre-operative glucose level and prevalence of hypoglycemia in patients presenting for surgery and its association with the duration of nil per oral period (NPO), age and intravenous fluids used in the pre-operative period. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Anesthesiology in a Nepalese medical college including all the patients posted for elective surgery over a period of three months. Socio-demographic and clinical details of the participants were collected in the operating theatre. Duration of NPO period and intravenous fluid prescribed in the pre-operative fasting period were recorded. A glucose strip test was performed on all the participants. Results: Participants were found to have fasted for an unnecessarily longer duration (12.84Â±2.27 hours). The incidence of hypoglycemia in patients posted for elective surgery was very high (43.3%). Ringer lactate and normal saline were equally prescribed (38.4%) and dextrose-normal saline was prescribed in the rest of the participants. Gender and type of intravenous fluids were positively correlated whereas NPO period was negatively correlated in overall participants though statistically insignificant. In hypoglycemic participants, we observed that lower glucose was influenced by pre-operative fluids, age and NPO duration. Conclusion: Pre-operative use of glucose-containing fluids during NPO period is an important step to prevent hypoglycemia and related consequences.

Published: December 2024

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To assess the accuracy of a flash glucose monitoring system (FGMS; FreeStyle Libre 2) in healthy dogs during isoflurane general anesthesia.

METHODS
6 purpose-bred Beagle dogs underwent 3 anesthetic events, 1 week apart, in a randomized crossover study. 1 of 3 mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) states were induced under isoflurane anesthesia (hypotension [MAP, ≤ 60 mm Hg], normotension [MAP, 80 to 120 mm Hg], and hypertension [MAP, ≥ 120 mm Hg]) for 40 minutes. Interstitial glucose was collected from an FGMS (applied to the dog's neck prior to anesthesia) at 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, and 40 minutes from stabilization within targeted MAP range. Whole-blood samples were collected from a lateral saphenous vein for plasma glucose measurement (blood glucose gold standard; BGGS) and via marginal lip mucosal puncture for point-of-care glucose measurement (blood glucose point-of-care; BGPOC). Shrout-Fleiss intraclass correlation and Bland-Altman analysis were performed. Accuracy was determined using human International Organization for Standardization criteria, including Parkes consensus error grid analysis.

RESULTS
Interstitial glucose strongly correlated with BGGS and BGPOC (intraclass correlation, 0.962 and 0.953, respectively). Interstitial glucose measured higher than BGGS (median[IQR] difference 9[−2 to 20] g/dL) and lower than BGPOC (−27[−37 to −11] g/dL). Interstitial glucose BGGS increased as MAP decreased. 62.1% and 63.3% of interstitial glucose measurements were within ± 15 mg/dL when BGGS ≤ 100 mg/dL and within ± 15% of BGGS when > 100 mg/dL, respectively. However, 100% were within zones A and B of error grid analysis.

CONCLUSIONS
Despite not meeting International Organization for Standardization standards, the FreeStyle Libre 2 demonstrated clinical accuracy for monitoring glucose concentrations in anesthetized dogs.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
The application of an FGMS before anesthesia may be useful for monitoring at-risk patients perioperatively.

Authors: Hynes Jessica M. , Menard Jenna V. , Lopez Daniel J. 
Published: December 2024

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To retrospectively describe the management of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) via permanent (crico)tracheostomy (PT).

METHODS
The sample was 3 client-owned dogs. Each of the dogs had variable clinical signs related to their SDB with all having severely affected quality of sleep and experiencing multiple apneic episodes a night in the study period from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2023. Two of the 3 dogs showed minimal daytime clinical signs, with 1 owner reporting no noticeable changes in breathing, activity, or alertness, while another noted only mild alterations. Despite previous brachycephalic airway surgery, clinical signs persisted or recurred, and all owners considered euthanasia secondary to nighttime signs. Permanent (crico)tracheostomy was elected in all cases.

RESULTS
Medical records were reviewed, and a standardized survey was administered to owners. All cases demonstrated variable degrees of improvement in the severity and frequency of clinical signs relating to SDB following PT, and overall quality of life improved from poor to good in all cases. All cases experienced surgical complications ranging from moderate to severe following PT, with 2 of 3 dogs requiring revision surgeries for skin-fold occlusion and stenosis of the PT.

CONCLUSIONS
Sleep-disordered breathing may be an underrecognized component of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome, with nighttime clinical signs significantly impacting quality of life.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Permanent (crico)tracheostomy may be considered in cases that either do not respond to initial brachycephalic airway surgery or in cases where clinical signs recur years after initial surgery. Owners should be aware of the likelihood of revision surgeries to achieve optimal outcomes.

Published: December 2024

Abstract
The article is devoted to the interdependence between the environment and the health of the population of Ukraine. The processes of destructive changes in the ecosystem of the regions of Ukraine, the use of human capital, and the dependence of public health on the environment have become the object of study and constitute the main goals of this study. To achieve the goals, general scientific and special methods of analysis and techniques were used: economic analysis and comparison – to assess the health status of the population, correlation–regression method – to build a system of equations and identify the dependence of the mortality rate on the impact of environmental factors, the grouping method – to analyze indicators of population morbidity by regions of Ukraine, induction and deduction. With the help of these techniques, the cause-and-effect relationships of the population’s morbidity and the influence of environmental factors on their dynamics were studied. To characterize the qualitative state of the environment in Ukraine, laboratory methods were used – the method of threshold limit value (TLV) of water, air, soil pollution, etc. To assess the quality of the living environment, an index method was used (the suitability index is a synthetic indicator of the quality of the living environment). Statistical data for the analysis were taken from the information bulletins of the State Sanitary Epidemiological Service for 2021‒2022, the statistical yearbook of Ukraine for 2019‒2021, and the Center for Health Statistics of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. It was determined that the prospects of the national economy will depend on the one hand, on the ability to quickly and effectively adapt to the new, modern requirements of globalization processes and on the other hand, on the consciousness of the population and the rational use of natural resources. It has been proven that the solution of medical and environmental problems directly depends on the professionalism of personnel and the motivation to preserve the environment for future generations. The quality of the living environment of the population depends on a safe environment and rational nature management.

Abstract
This article discusses the significance of geophysical research in the context of historical renewal, emphasizing its contributions to risk assessment, sustainable redevelopment, and non-uniqueness in geophysical interpretation. The geophysical studies were conducted in the surroundings of the Palace of Rzuchów, timing to locate the modern infrastructure, historical objects, and other environmental elements that can either threaten the renewal process or add value to the historical heritage. We used three geophysical methods to study the palace surroundings: frequency domain electromagnetics, magnetometry, and electrical resistivity tomography. The findings revealed significant anomalies corresponding to buried modern infrastructure and historical artifacts, offering critical insights for preserving cultural heritage while planning sustainable redevelopment, thus demonstrating the practical utility of integrating geophysical methods in complex historical and environmental contexts.

Authors: Lampl Zuzana Mészárosová , Kočnerová Mária 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Research on the media consumption of national minorities contributes to identifying whether the media have an impact on the formation of national identity. The language and symbols used by the media are a strong factor influencing this identity. In the presented study, we focused on the analysis and comparison of empirical data resulting from several sociological researches carried out by the authors of this study on the Hungarian minority in Slovakia. The research was mainly focused on media consumption, the type of media that the Hungarian minority prefers to follow, because we assume that the chosen medium and its language contribute to the formation of identity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the development of media consumption among the above-mentioned minority and to evaluate changes in consumption upon the discovery of new modern media.

Published: December 2024

Abstract

Background
This study is focused on the investigation of advanced technology with potential involvement in the process of rehabilitation of working–age patients with orthopedic and neurologic disabilities. The main advantages of the use of advanced technology are related to decrease in recovery time and increase in return-to-work rate. This study addresses the biomechanics of walking and compares different gait sessions with RELIVE system. The purpose is to highlight the effect on the plantar pressure changes the system has during these sessions.

Methods
The study was realized on 15 healthy, disability-free subjects tested in 6 walking sessions. All the selected sessions were characterized by one particular characteristic, walking with hands on the handrail, and each participant had to perform three walks during each session. The F-Scan device from Tekscan (research software version), attached to the participants’ belt was used to record the plantar pressure for each of the 18 walks.

Results
When walking with hands on the handrail, with 20% body weight offload, the average pressure values were lower with the alternator turned on compared to the seasons with the alternator turned off. Additionally, the body weight offloading of the participants determined by the body weight support subsystem resulted in decreased average pressure values with each percentage of unloaded body weight.

Conclusion
The unloading of the participants' weight was obtained by the body weight support subsystem. In all gait sessions studied, a drawback is represented by the interferences between the alternator and the body weight support subsystem. Therefore, is mandatory to find a solution for the interference between these two systems to assure a better gait training. Thus, a good alternative for conventional rehabilitation of working-age patients could be RELIVE system.
Green Cities, Gray Realities: The Rhetoric of Sustainability and Urban Segregation
Authors: Godoy Jeane Aparecida Rombi de , Benini Sandra Medina , Silva Allan Leon Casemiro da , Palmisano Angelo 
Published: December 2024

Objective: Critically analyze the concept of urban sustainability, highlighting how it has been instrumentalized by neoliberal logics that favor social exclusion. The study seeks to expose how sustainability has lost its transformative character and become a tool for marketing and real estate valuation, contributing to gentrification and urban segregation.

Theoretical Framework: The research is based on authors such as David Harvey, Erik Swyngedouw, and Sharon Zukin, who discuss the commodification of urban space, green neoliberalism, and the alienation of the right to the city. Theories by Henri Lefebvre on the right to the city and Pierre Bourdieu on the dynamics of power in social space are also explored.

Method: A methodological approach based on critical literature review and case analysis was adopted to understand how the discourse of sustainability has been appropriated by economic interests to legitimize urban inequalities.

Results and Discussion: The study concludes that urban sustainability, when co-opted by neoliberal practices, reinforces the status quo, legitimizes the privatization of public space, and deepens inequalities. The so-called "green cities" are often showcases to attract investments and tourists, excluding vulnerable populations. To reclaim its critical potential, sustainability must be linked to a social justice agenda and resource redistribution.

Research Implications: The findings point to the need to reorient urban sustainability policies to make them inclusive and promote equity. This includes questioning the power structures that generate inequalities and ensuring that the benefits of environmental policies are distributed among all urban inhabitants.

Originality/Value: The research provides an original contribution by criticizing the instrumentalization of urban sustainability as a tool of exclusion and proposing a conceptual restructuring that integrates socio-environmental justice into the urban agenda.

Authors: Silva Allan Leon Casemiro da , Benini Sandra Medina , Godoy Jeane Aparecida Rombi de 
Published: December 2024

Objective: The objective of this study is to analyze, using big data, the research conducted over the past ten years on economic development and sustainability in the Amazon, using the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) as an analytical basis to identify patterns, knowledge gaps, and trends that may inform effective public policies.

Theoretical Framework: The research is based on the concept of TBL proposed by Elkington (2018), which encompasses economic, social, and environmental dimensions as pillars of sustainable development, promoting an integrated balance between economic prosperity, social justice, and environmental protection.

Method: The methodology involved data collection from the Web of Science platform, followed by big data analysis and clustering techniques using K-means and DBSCAN algorithms. Articles related to economic development and sustainability in the Amazon were identified and grouped according to the TBL pillars.

Results and Discussion: The results revealed three main clusters (social, economic, and environmental), highlighting conflicts and convergences among the development objectives of the Amazon. A predominance of social studies was observed, followed by environmental and economic studies, indicating specific gaps in the integration of these pillars.

Research Implications: The results provide inputs for the formulation of public policies aimed at a more balanced development of the Amazon, integrating the three TBL pillars and valuing local communities.

Originality/Value: The originality of the study lies in the use of big data and clustering analysis to explore the relationship between development and sustainability in the Amazon, providing an integrated view of emerging trends and research gaps.
