Flexor hallucis longus augmentation for Achilles tendon – is pre-operative evaluation of flexor hallucis longus by MRI required?
Authors: Saad Ahmed , McLoughlin Emer , Hanif Umar , Iqbal Aamer , James Steven , Botchu Rajesh 
Published: May 2021

Objectives:
Flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon transfer is the method of choice in reconstructing chronic neglected Achilles tendon rupture. We performed a retrospective study to assess the incidence and degree of fatty degeneration of FHL.

Material and Methods:
Two hundred and twenty-five consecutive MR of ankles were reviewed retrospectively and assessed for fatty atrophy based on Goutallier classification.

Results:
About 42.7% had Grade 1, 8.4% had Grade 2, 3.1% had Grade 3, and 1.8% had Grade 4 fatty atrophy of FHL. Other lesions identified included posterior ankle impingement, tenosynovitis, loose bodies, and giant cell tumors of the tendon sheath.

Conclusion:
We suggest pre-operative radiological assessment of the FHL to establish that the FHL muscle and tendon are normal and intact and suitable for transfer surgery. We also discuss the spectrum of pathologies affecting FHL.

Published: May 2021

Objectives:
The objectives of the study were to explore the factors influencing serum IgG response against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) among healthcare workers (HCWs) of a tertiary healthcare facility in India.

Material and Methods:
It was a monocentric, observational study during the month of September 2020. In the study, a cross-sectional quantitative serological assessment of IgG response against SARS-CoV-2 among HCWs of All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Patna, Bihar, was done using a chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) platform named “ADVIA Centaur COV2G.” Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) (version 22.0) was used for data analysis.

Results:
Among the study subjects, 761 (82.8%) had detectable serum IgG traces against SARS-CoV-2 with median (interquartile range [IQR]) of 0.03 (0.01–0.08). Those who were male by gender (spearman rho correlation co-efficient [ρ] = 0.08; P ≤ 0.05), technician (ρ= 0.07; P ≤ 0.05), attendant (ρ= 0.19; P ≤ 0.01), and sanitary staff (ρ= 0.13; P ≤ 0.01) by occupation, posted in laboratories (ρ= 0.09; P ≤ 0.01), had prior SARS-CoV-2 infection (ρ= 0.26; P ≤ 0.01), used to take steam inhalation (ρ= 0.10; P ≤ 0.01), preferred non-vegetarian diet (ρ= 0.10; P ≤ 0.01), consumed azithromycin (ρ= 0.13; P ≤ 0.01), zinc (ρ= 0.08; P ≤ 0.05) had significantly higher whereas doctors (ρ= −0.10; P ≤ 0.01), and nurses (ρ= −0.16; P ≤ 0.01) had significantly lower serum IgG response against SARS-CoV-2 compared to others.

Conclusion:
Gender, occupation, place of posting, prior SARS-CoV-2 infection, use of steam inhalation, diet preference, consumption of azithromycin, and zinc emerged as significant attributes of serum IgG response against SARS-CoV-2 among the study subjects.

Published: May 2021

ABSTRACTThis research explores the role of the tourism sector in Indonesia, including its backward and forward linkages with other economic sectors. The tourism sector is represented by the hotel and restaurant (hospitality) industry. The study uses the input-output method and traces the econometric backward and forward shocks of the tourism sector with the Error Correction Model (ECM), using database from Statistics Indonesia from 2010 to 2019. The paper contributes to the existing literature by using multi-stage quantitative processes to observe backward and forward economic linkages. The result shows that manufacturing output contributes a significant and positive effect to the hotel and restaurant industry. At the same time, the tourism sector provides a significant and positive contribution to government retribution. Nonetheless, there is a negative relationship between the growth of the agriculture and tourism sector, which is assumed due to the tradeoff in the factor of production between the agricultural and tourism sector development. Consequently, backward and forward relationships suggest more holistic and prudent economic policies for observing interdependent tourism development in Indonesia's other economic sectors. ABSTRAKTujuan penelitian ini adalah menginvestigasi keterkaitan ke belakang dan ke depan antara sektor pariwisata dan sektor ekonomi lain di Indonesia. Pariwisata di sini di wakili sektor perhotelan dan restoran. Studi ini menggunakan metode input-output dengan data berasal dari database input output Bank Pembangunan Asia (ADB). Kedua, studi menelusuri keterkaitan ekonometrik ke depan dan ke belakang pariwisata dengan model koreksi kesalahan (ECM), menggunakan data triwulan dari PDB riil di database BPS dari tahun 2010 hingga 2019. Kontribusi makalah ini adalah proses multi-asesment untuk mengamati keterkaitan ekonomi ke belakang dan ke depan antara pariwisata dengan sektor ekonomi lainnya. Dari ekonometri tersebut, diketahui bahwa kontribusi output industry manufaktur berpengaruh signifikan dan positif terhadap industri hotel dan restoran. Selain itu, pariwisata memberikan kontribusi yang signifikan dan positif untuk retribusi pemerintah. Meskipun demikian, peningkatan output pariwisata datang dengan pengorbanan pengurangan output sektor pertanian. Hal ini dipengaruhi oleh kompetisi akses faktor produksi di antara kedua sektor tersebut. Hasil ini menekankan perlunya kebijakan ekonomi yang lebih holistik dan hati-hati terhadap saling ketergantungan antara pembangunan pariwisata dengan sektor ekonomi lain di Indonesia.

Abstrak KOPTRAS adalah sebuah organisasi non-profit yang didirikan untuk mewadahi para pembina dan pelatih ekstrakurikuler di Surabaya. KOPTRAS lahir dilandasi rasa senasib yang dimiliki pembina dan pelatih ekstrakurikuler. Masing-masing sekolah memilki kebijakannya dalam memberikan hak dan kewajiban terhadap para pelatih/pembina ekstrakurikuler. Dalam praktiknya, hak-hak sebagai pekerja para pembina/pelatih ekstrakurikuler ini seringkali dilanggar. Hasil identifikasi dan inventarisasi masalah menunjukkan bahwa, terdapat dua permasalahan krusial yang dihadapi oleh KOPTRAS, yakni ketidakjelasan status pembina dan pelatih akibat proses rekruitmen dan juga masalah pembayaran honorarium, karena tidak ada standar pembayaran ekstrakurikuler. Metode yang digunakan dalam pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah melalui focus group discussion, capacity building dan pendampingan hukum melalui pendampingan proses pendaftaran KOPTRAS sebagai organisasi yang berbadan hukum. Dalam pelaksanaannya, rekomendasi bentuk badan hukum yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan KOPTRAS adalah perkumpulan. Pendaftaran KOPTRAS sebagai organisasi yang berbadan hukum dapat memperkuat posisi dan status hukum KOPTRAS dalam melakukan proses advokasi hak-hak pembina/pelatih ekstrakurikuler sebagai pekerja. Sehingga nantinya dapat meraih penghidupan yang layak, tidak mendapatkan diskriminasi dan mendapatkan perlindungan hukum yang memadai.

Psicología para un mundo de desigualdades, dominación y machismo
Authors: Almeida Eduardo 
Published: May 2021

Planteamiento
Nuestras inquietudes como psicólogos se centran en los procesos mentales y conductuales, que han sido los mismos en las culturas orientales, africanas y amerindias. Pero el origen de nuestra "ciencia", lo situamos en lo razonable. Hemos descuidado lo sabio y lo vital. Propongo la búsqueda de una psicología más universal y más relevante.

Desarrollo
Si quisiéramos una psicología para la inclusión de todos los humanos, tendríamos que enfocar nuestros afanes hacia otros horizontes, hacia un mundo de lo común y lo solidario. Mi experiencia en las comunidades puedo afirmar que los pueblos indígenas tienen una respuesta. Ahora o nunca es su tiempo.

Conclusión
Como psicólogos podemos organizar nuestras vidas con actos de resistencia y fraternidad contra los poderes que mantienen el capitalismo, la colonialidad y el patriarcado.
Assessment of Leadership Style and Safety in Oil and Gas Servicing Firms in Port Harcourt Metropolis, Nigeria
Authors: Onuoha Foreman , Oyegun Charles U , Ugbebor John N 
Published: May 2021

Introduction: Safety leadership is the process of interaction between leaders and followers, through which leaders exert their influence on followers to achieve organizational safety goals under the circumstances of organizational and individual factors.
Objective: This study was aimed to assess leadership style and safety in oil and gas servicing firms in Portharcourt, Nigeria.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among the junior-staff of the oil servicing firms. The Taro Yamane equation was used to generate appropriate sample size of 389 respondents from 16240 workers. Data analyses was done using analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Results: It was established that 230 (59%) respondents agreed that, leaders checked staff work on a regular basis to assess their progress and learning. Many respondents (62%) averred that leaders didn’t gave any incentives for extra work. Also, 338 (87%) respondents adduced that changes in policies were discussed with workers before they were carried out but, the input of the workers were not required, neither staff were expected to be innovative as opined by 76% respondents and leadership emphasis on the importance of quality was sustained. Albeit, workers weren’t allowed to contribute to control standards based on perception of problems. The characteristics of leadership displayed in the companies imply the transactional type. This was because the rapport between workers and leaders wasn’t cordial.
Conclusion: The study therefore strongly recommends a review of the leadership style adopted for oil and gas workers in the area, while improving on the worker/leader relationships.
Blistering skin reaction with Mastisol in a patient with spina bifida: illustrative case
Authors: Bowman Robin M. , Thirunavu Vineeth , Lam Sandi 
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUNDPatients with spina bifida have repeated interactions with the healthcare system and often require multiple surgeries throughout their lifetime. Latex precautions are often indicated owing to the high risk of anaphylactic reactions. The choice of dressing for these patients represents an opportunity for learning and standardization if appropriate. The authors discuss the various cases of skin reactions to Mastisol in the literature in comparison with their case and explore the possible mechanisms underlying this skin reaction given the high prevalence of latex allergy in patients with spina bifida.OBSERVATIONSThe authors present the case of a 17-year-old girl with a history of spina bifida and shunted hydrocephalus who underwent a shunt externalization operation and subsequently developed an allergic contact dermatitis reaction to Mastisol liquid adhesive. Topical steroid cream was then administered, and signs and symptoms resolved over the next 3 days.LESSONSThe choice of dressing should be considered carefully in patients with spina bifida given their repeated exposures and possible sensitivities. The authors aim to increase the awareness of the possibility of Mastisol-induced skin reactions in patients with spina bifida and set a foundation for future studies to investigate the relationship between latex allergy and sensitization to Mastisol.

Authors: Takahashi Mikiko , Tomita Yusuke , Yamada Shoko Merrit , Yamazaki Kazuto , Yokoo Hideaki , Aso Tatsuya , Kawamoto Masashi 
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUNDDiffuse midline glioma H3 K27M-mutant is a distinct subtype of glial tumors newly introduced in the revised fourth edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System. They are aggressive pediatric tumors with a poor prognosis but have also been reported in adults.OBSERVATIONSThe authors present the case of a man in his 60s who presented with rotatory vertigo, taste disorder, and right facial paralysis. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a tumor expanding from the cerebellum to the pons, which was histologically identified as glioblastoma, grade IV, IDH wild type. After tumor resection, the patient received chemoradiotherapy but showed only a partial response. His condition gradually worsened, and he died of progressive disease 12 months postoperation, after which an autopsy was performed. Tumor cells with a high nuclear-to-cytoplasm ratio were immunohistochemically analyzed and found to test positive for H3 K27M and negative for H3 K27me3. Furthermore, mutational analysis revealed HIST1H3B K27M mutation, and the tumor was finally identified as a high-grade glioma H3 K27M-mutant. The tumor invaded widely along the cerebral ventricle and disseminated to the spinal cord.LESSONSWhen a glioblastoma shows localization or dissemination patterns different from those of typical glioblastoma, an H3 K27M-mutant glioma should be suspected.
Postoperative Lemierre’s syndrome: a previously unreported complication of transoral surgery. Illustrative case
Authors: Mariniello Giuseppe , Corvino Sergio , Teodonno Giuseppe , Pagano Serena , Maiuri Francesco 
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND
Lemierre’s syndrome is a rare but potentially life-threatening clinical condition characterized by bacteremia and thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein, usually secondary to oropharyngeal infection and often caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum; rarely, it occurs after surgical procedures. The most common clinical presentation includes acute pharyngitis, high fever, and neck pain. The diagnosis is based on blood culture and cranial and cervical spine computed tomography (CT)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with contrast. Antibiotic therapy for 3–6 weeks is the mainstay of treatment, while the use of anticoagulant drugs is controversial.

OBSERVATIONS
The authors describe a case of Lemierre’s syndrome that occurred after transoral surgery. The patient underwent a combined surgical approach from above (transoral) and below (anterolateral transcervical) to the upper cervical spine for the resection of a large anterior osteophyte causing dysphagia, globus sensation, and dysphonia. Three weeks after the surgical procedure, she developed fever and severe neck pain.

LESSONS
The aim of this paper is to consider Lemierre’s syndrome as a possible complication after the transoral approach, underlining the importance of its early diagnosis and with a suggestion to perform cranial and cervical spine CT or MRI venous angiography in patients who undergo surgery with a transoral approach and exhibit local or systemic signs of infection such as neck pain, persistent fever, and positive blood culture results.

BACKGROUNDThis study aimed to describe the least invasive surgical technique of endoscopic decompression for thoracic myelopathy caused by ossification of the ligamentum flavum (OLF) and to review the literature available on the diagnosis and treatment of OLF.OBSERVATIONSThe mean age of the patients was 51.2 (range, 40–62) years, and the mean preoperative, 2-week postoperative, and last follow-up modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores were 6.6 (range, 4–10), 9.6 (range, 7–11), and 13 (range, 10–14), respectively. All patients were discharged within 48 hours after the surgery. The mean follow-up period was 13.2 (range, 7–18) months. No complication was found perioperatively, and none of the patients had postoperative instability during the follow-up period.LESSONSBased on this clinical case series and literature review, the authors conclude that endoscopic decompression surgery is feasible and effective for managing thoracic myelopathy caused by OLF while minimizing surrounding tissue damage. Additionally, it enables shorter periods of hospital stay.
Subcutaneous emphysema of the neck after shunt surgery for hydrocephalus in a case of metastatic ovarian cancer: illustrative case
Authors: Sathish Smrithi , Kumari M. Manoranjitha , Prem Shyama S. , Sasidharan Gopalakrishnan M. 
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUNDA 46-year-old female, a patient with a relapsed carcinoma in her ovary, had undergone ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt surgery for obstructive hydrocephalus due to vermian metastasis. Two weeks after the shunt surgery, she complained of discomfort in the neck. There was subcutaneous emphysema along the shunt track without tenderness or signs of inflammation. She was afebrile, and her vital parameters were stable.OBSERVATIONSThe authors ruled out pneumothorax and airway trauma as potential sources of emphysema. They tapped the shunt chamber and detected gram-negative bacilli. Ascitic fluid culture grew gas-forming Escherichia coli.LESSONSAlthough some amount of air can get trapped in the subcutaneous plane during the tunneling procedure of a VP shunt tube insertion, the reappearance of a new, large column of air along the shunt track can be an ominous sign of shunt infection. The shunt became contaminated by bacteria of gut origin, which seeded the ascitic fluid, and a florid bacterial growth ascended up the shunt track, producing gas along the subcutaneous plane. Physicians should consider this rare etiology in their differential diagnoses of subcutaneous emphysema following VP shunt surgery.
Superficial siderosis of the central nervous system with epilepsy originating from traumatic cervical injury: illustrative case

Published: May 2021

BACKGROUNDSuperficial siderosis of the central nervous system (SSCNS) is a rare condition that results from hemosiderin deposition in the brain, brainstem, cerebellum, and spinal cord as a result of chronic, repeated, and recurrent subarachnoid hemorrhage. SSCNS that originates in the spinal cord is rarely reported, and epilepsy as a manifestation of such a case has not been reported before.OBSERVATIONSThe authors reported a rare case of SSCNS with epilepsy originating from traumatic cervical injury and presented a literature review of all reported SSCNS cases that originated in the spine. The patient was a 29-year-old man with a 16-year history of progressive headache accompanied by seizures, ataxia, and sensorineural hearing loss. He had experienced a traumatic cervical injury at age 7. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a characteristic hypointense rim around the pons and cervical spinal cord on susceptibility-weighted imaging scans. Cerebrospinal fluid examination during a headache episode confirmed subarachnoid hemorrhage and increased intracranial pressure. Surgical exploration revealed a C6 dural defect with bone spurs inserted into the dura mater. After the patient underwent dura mater repair and shunt implantation, his symptoms disappeared completely except for hearing loss.LESSONSThis rare case indicated that symptomatic epilepsy followed by SSCNS can be eliminated by complete repair of the cervical dura mater.
