The Doctrine of Justification in the Neo-Latin Biblical Poetry of Silesian Reformation Poets and their Interpretation of the Biblical Theme of the Fall of the First Parents
Authors: Modlińska-Piekarz Angelika 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
The aim of this article is to analyze a selection of works by Silesian Protestants who, in poetic form, explained the biblical theme of the fall of the first parents in the context of the Reformation teaching on justification. The article consists of three parts. The first gives a short presentation of the literary phenomenon of neo-Latin poetic alterations of various books, fragments, and biblical themes by Silesian poets who were active in this literary field from the mid-sixteenth century to the mid-seventeenth century. The scale, area and time frame of the mass distribution of this literature are presented here, and it is noted that it was created as a result of the cultural and educational influence of the leading teacher of the Lutheran Reformation, viz. Philip Melanchthon. The second part of the article provides a theological explanation of the biblical story of the fall of the first parents, or original sin, in the context of the doctrine of justification as interpreted by Martin Luther, Philip Melanchthon, Huldrych Zwingli, and John Calvin. The third part discusses how some Silesian poets like Thomas Mawer (1536–1575), Laurentius Fabricius (1539–1577), Melchior Ostius (1569–1637) and Fridericus Wolbertus (active at the turn of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries) presented the doctrine of justification in poems describing the fall of Adam and Eve. The conclusions emphasize the importance of this type of work for the spread of the Reformation doctrine of justification, which opened the peaceful path to ideological and religious discussions in Central and Eastern Europe at that time.
Teaching Romans 7 after Trent: Michael Baius and his Lecture Hall on Concupiscence and Original Sin in Early Modern Louvain (1552–1589)
Authors: Van Der Biest Jarrik 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
This article introduces a new corpus of sources relevant to the sixteenth-century Baianist controversy at the University of Louvain: student notes made during Michael Baius’ lectures on the Bible during the 1560s. The commentary on Romans 7 taught by the Royal Professor of Sacred Scripture contains a discussion on the sinfulness of concupiscence, the effect of the Fall driving humankind to sin. A contested concept between Catholics and Protestants, the nature of concupiscentia also lies at the core of debates on the orthodoxy of Baius’ justification theology, both early modern and more recent. The professor’s lecture on Romans 7 is analysed against his published treatises, the censures (1565–1567) and papal bull (1567) condemning certain propositions as heretical, and the Tridentine Decree on Original Sin (1546). While Baius’ Augustinian revaluation of humanity’s wounded nature (natura viciata) moved away from the Thomistic conception of concupiscence as innate, but disordered, he did respect the boundaries set by the Council of Trent. Indeed, Baius taught his positive theology in the interstices between the educational application of the Tridentine Decrees and the gradual assertion of dominance by a renewed Thomism in Catholic orthodoxy. I argue that such a historical reading of Baius’ ideas is the key to avoid the earlier dogmatic assessments of his theology.
Reforming the Holy Name: The Afterlife of the IHS in Early Modern England
Authors: Davis David J. 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
This article challenges the prevailing understanding of the Holy Name of Jesus as largely a Roman Catholic representation in early modern England. Although the Holy Name was attacked intermittently by Protestant iconoclasts, the article uses both visual and literary texts to set out a more nuanced relationship between the symbol and the broader religious culture of the period. As a symbol, the IHS served as a polysemous representation in a period of religious turmoil, creating not only multiple meanings but also multiple contexts in which the symbol could be found. The article both addresses the reasons why scholars tend to see the IHS as a particularly Catholic symbol and demonstrates the continued importance of the Holy Name in Protestant devotion.

Authors: Dawes Jay , Lentine Tim , Johnson Quincy , Lockie Robert , Orr Rob 
Published: November 2021

ABSTRACT
Many essential occupational tasks performed by law enforcement officers are physically demanding. There are numerous challenges with developing and maintaining physical fitness within this population. These challenges can lead to a steady decline in health and fitness over the occupational life span and have a devastating impact on officer safety and wellness. The purpose of this column is to discuss physical training program considerations when working with law enforcement professionals and provide potential solutions to these barriers.
Importance of Muscle Strength in Chronic Heart Failure
Authors: Souza Wallace Machado Magalhães de , Nascimento Pablo Marino Correa , Vieira Marcelo Carvalho 
Published: November 2021

ABSTRACT
Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a complex syndrome characterized by dyspnea, exercise intolerance, and quality-of-life impairment. The compensatory physiological mechanisms of this disease may promote muscle wasting and reduction in muscle strength, which are independent predictors of mortality. Therefore, the evaluation of muscle strength in patients with CHF is essential for the prognosis of the disease and the evaluation of interventions. Besides that, strategies to increase muscle strength should be performed to improve this outcome.
11+ Dance: A Neuromuscular Injury Prevention Exercise Program for Dancers
Authors: Kolokythas Nico , Metsios George S. , Galloway Shaun M. , Allen Nick , Wyon Matthew A. 
Published: November 2021

ABSTRACT
Epidemiological studies over the past decade indicate high injury prevalence in preprofessional ballet (76%) and professional contemporary and ballet dancers (60–69%). Injuries can have detrimental effects both for the dancers and the dance company. Most injuries are in the lower limb and reported as the gradual onset of overuse. Professional dance companies have reduced injury incidence and severity through the implementation of comprehensive injury audit programs and proactive exercise prescription. Injury prevention research in dance is scarce, and there has been no intervention targeting dance injuries. This article describes the development of 11+ Dance, an injury prevention training program designed for dancers, based on current evidence and best practice on injury prevention in sports. It is a 25–30-minute neuromuscular-based training program focused on strength, balance, and jumping/landing technique, with special attention to ankle, knee, and hip alignment. The high prevalence of injuries reported in the different styles of dance suggests that implementation of an injury prevention program is both the plausible and ethical action to take for all levels of performance.
Brief Review of Methods to Quantify High-Speed Running in Rugby League: Are Current Methods Appropriate?
Authors: Bennett Thomas , Marshall Phil , Barrett Steve , Malone James J. , Towlson Chris 
Published: November 2021

ABSTRACT
High-speed running (HSR) has been documented within rugby league to differentiate playing standard and position and often precedes pivotal match events. Practitioners and researchers place importance on HSR because of its inclusion in assessing the demands of training and match play to help prescribe accurate training loads and recovery methods. HSR can be quantified in absolute terms whereby the same threshold speed is applied to all players (e.g., 5.0 m·s−1). Within rugby league, differences in tactical demand, anthropometric, and physical fitness characteristics exist between positions and players, suggesting that absolute HSR thresholds may not be appropriate because of underestimations and overestimations of HSR data. Alternatively, practitioners may individualize the threshold speed to individual players' physical qualities such as peak sprint speed, maximal aerobic speed (MAS), or the speed at which the ventilatory thresholds occur. Individualizing HSR warrants the practitioner to select a valid and practical test to quantify the HSR threshold speed. It is suggested that using peak sprint speed to quantify HSR can produce erroneous interpretation of HSR data while the practicality of specific physiological derived thresholds can be questioned. Implementing MAS to quantify HSR using a set time/distance trial may be the most appropriate approach for rugby league practitioners.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Remdesivir, a broad spectrum antiviral agent, is currently the only drug that is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of COVID-19. It is recommended for use in hospitalized patients who require supplemental oxygen. There are insufficient data either for or against to recommend for routine use of Remdesivir in high risk patients who doesn’t require supplemental oxygen. To evaluate the efficacy of Remdesivir in covid positive patients. A retrospective analysis of 300 patients was done, out of which 150 patients belong to Group 1 and 150 patients belong to Group 2. Group 1-Elderly patients with comorbidities who doesn’t require supplemental oxygen Group 2- Patients requiring oxygen supplementation (SpO2 88% to 94% on room air).Group 1 patients were discharged earlier than Group 2 patients.Elective use of Remdesivir has a definitive role in prevention of progression of disease especially in high risk susceptible individuals.

The most concerning complication of severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARSCoV-2) pneumonia is acute hypoxemic failure. Though various antivirals, steroids, immunomodulators have been tried, oxygen therapy remains the mainstay of treatment. After obtaining institutional ethical clearance, a prospective observational study was conducted on 102 COVID-19 positive patients aged 20 years and above, admitted in the ICU with moderate to severe disease. COVID-19 infection was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction or rapid antigen test. Data of two demographically comparable groups i.e., patients on HFNO and NIV was analysed outcome was defined as discharge from ICU, shift to other non-invasive modes of oxygen therapy, endotracheal intubation or death, and comfort level for each mode. The data was analysed using SPSS-16.0, Chi-square test and “t” value test were applied.Comparison ofthe mean number of invasive ventilator free days of HFNO and NIV was insignificant(p&#62;0.05). Among the patients on HFNO (high flow nasal oxygen) 49.09% were stepped down to NRB (non-rebreathing mask) whereas 7.27% went for intubation which is significant compared to NIV mask (non-invasive ventilation), where 13.64% were stepped down to HFNO and 34.09% were intubated (p=0.000).Oxygen therapy with HFNO is associated with better outcome and less mortality when compared with NIV.

Published: November 2021

Splenic injuries are amongst the most frequent trauma-related injuries which requires emergency surgeries demanding meticulous surgical and anesthetic management. The aim while managing splenic trauma patients, is to restore homeostasis and normal pathophysiology in the body by achieving hemostasis with an emergency splenectomy. To date, there have been few reports describing the anaesthetic management of COVID-19 patients presenting for emergency surgery. In this article, we outline the anaesthetic management for a case with hemoperitoneum, posted for emergency exploratory laparotomy and splenectomy in our operating theatre who was incidentally diagnosed to be COVID positive in the emergency unit by a rapid antigen test.

Modified Radical Mastectomy is the widely followed treatment for operable breast cancers. Among the methods used to alleviate pain, irrigation of wound with 0.25% Bupivacaine is one of the under-utilized methods with good efficiency compared to other drugs.To evaluate the role of local irrigation of 0.25% bupivacaine in alleviating the post-operative pain. This observational study was conducted among 60 female patients who underwent Modified Radical Mastectomy in a tertiary care teaching hospital between January 2017 and July 2018. Thirty (30) patients were randomly allotted to control group, where the routine post-operative pain management was followed. Another 30 were randomly allotted to study group where, before closure of the wound, a 20G scalp vein set was used along the length of the incision with multiple punctures in it for continuous irrigation with 0.25% Bupivacaine. Post operatively Visual analogue scale was used to measure the pain sensation at every six hours for 24 hours. The adverse effects like pain, hematoma, wound dehiscence, infection was noted on all the post-operative days.Both the groups were similar with respect to basic parameters measured. There was a significant reduction in need for rescue analgesia in the study group. There was a significant difference in mean VAS score between both groups from 6 hour of surgery. Post-operative nausea and vomiting was significantly less in the study group. Irrigation of wound with 0.25% Bupivacaine is found to reduce the pain sensation with minimal side effects without systemic compromise.
A prospective randomised study of adjuvants for supraclavicular brachial plexus block: Clonidine vs Dexamethasone
Authors: Aggarwal Akanksha , Gandhi Nimit 
Published: November 2021

Supraclavicular brachial plexus block is among foremost technique of regional anaesthesia administered during upper-limb surgery. Different adjuvants have been used with varied results for prolonging the sensory and motor blockade. Dexamethasone and Clonidine have been established as suitable adjuvants for blocks. Adding adjuvants to local anaesthetic drugs in nerve blocks has many benefits. We studied performance of dexamethasone or clonidine as additives to local anaesthetic in subclavian perivascular block as a part of upper limb surgery. Aim was to ascertain which of them is a better adjuvant. Study population was randomized to 2 groups of 50 patients each. Group 1 was given 5 ml of 2% lignocaine and 15 ml 0.5% bupivacaine with 8mg dexamethasone. Group 2 received 5ml 2% lignocaine and 15 ml 0.5% bupivacaine with 0.150 mg clonidine. Time to establishment of sensory & motor block, duration of analgesia and any adverse effects were observed. Statistical analysis was done with SPSS 13.0. Quantitative variables were assessed using student t test. Qualitative variables were analysed using Chi square test. P value &#60; 0.05 was defined as significant. Onset of sensory blockade was at 7.23+4.24 in group 1 and 8.36+2.68 minutes in Group 2. Average time to motor block was at 8.48+3.22 minutes in Group 1 and 9.58+3.71 minutes in Group 2. Analgesia’s duration in Group 1 and Group 2 was 998.2+338.5 and 879.3+284.5 minutes respectively. No major adverse events were seen in either group. Performance of dexamethasone was similar to clonidine as adjunct to local anaesthetic in subclavian perivascular approach of brachial plexus block. However, it has faster sensory and motor blockade’s onset. Analgesia’s duration observed was found to be longer, though the difference was statistically insignificant.

: Propofol has been used since ages as induction agent to aid in insertion of Supraglottic airway devices however its side effects like hypotension, apnea and pain on injection do coexist. To avoid these side effects sevoflurane has been studied and well recognized because of its sweet smelling property. We conducted this study with primary aim to compare the insertion conditions such as no. of attempts for insertion, hemodynamic variations and awakening after surgery. The secondary aim was to note the adverse effects associated with Sevoflurane and propofol.We included sixty female patients of age 18-65 years graded as ASA I and II undergoing short gynecological procedures. Patients were induced with Sevoflurane 8% or IV Propofol 2mg/kg. Attempts for I-gel insertion, jaw relaxation, biting, coughing, gagging, laryngospasm and hemodynamic pressor response and awakening after surgery were noted.Induction time with Propofol is less compared to Sevoflurane. I-Gel insertion time with Sevoflurane and Propofol is insignificant (p value= 0.93). 25 patients in Group S and 27 patients in group P had very easy insertion of I-gel. 23 patients in Group S and 27 patients in Group P had relaxed jaw. None of the patients in both groups experienced laryngospasm.Propofol provided better conditions for I-gel insertion with manageable hypotension while the patients induced with Sevoflurane were hemodynamically more stable but the jaw relaxation was less as compared to that provided by propofol. Induction with 8% Sevoflurane by Vital Capacity Breath (VCB) technique can be an alternative for induction in high risk patients. Also the awakening from anaesthesia is faster with sevoflurane and is more suitable for patients demanding early discharge after day care surgeries.

Epidural analgesia is the most commonly used method for surgical anesthesia, obstetric analgesia, post-operative pain control, and chronic pain management. These epidurals are used either as a single-shot technique or with the catheter that allows intermittent boluses or continuous infusion, or both. All of these variables are controlled by choice of drug concentration, dosage, and level of injections. To compare the onset and duration of sensory block, motor block, and post-operative analgesia duration using Ropivacaine with Tramadol and Ropivacaine with Midazolam in the Epidural technique. In this prospective, non-randomized, comparative study, the total of 160 patients who underwent surgeries below the umbilicus did under epidural technique at Govt. Kilpauk Medical college hospital a Govt. Royapettah hospital, Chennai, was screened. Patients were divided into two groups. Patients in Group R received an epidural injection of 0.5% Ropivacaine (30ml) with Tramadol 2 mg/kg, whereas patients in Group L received an epidural injection of 0.5% ropivacaine (30ml) with Midazolam (50mg/kg). On studying the comparison of the onset of sensory, motor blockade, and duration of the sensory-motor blockade in the two groups, the onset of sensory blockade, motor blockade, and duration of motor blockade was more among ropivacaine with midazolam group. In comparison, the duration of sensory blockade was more among ropivacaine with tramadol group. A statistically significant difference in onset of sensory, motor blockade, and duration of sensory blockade across the group was found (p&#60;0.005). Tramadol or Midazolam's addition to caudal epidural block with ropivacaine showed significant prolongation of post-operative analgesia compared to ropivacaine alone. The mean duration of analgesia was more among ropivacaine with the Tramadol group.
Intranasal midazolam versus intranasal dexmedetomidine as premedication in paediatric patients: A comparative study
Authors: Gour Vinayak , Dangi Vimal , Verma Sushil Chand 
Published: November 2021

: Preanesthetic medication is important among the paediatric patients undergoing surgeries. A good preanesthetic medication reduces the anxiety and the post-operative pain among paediatric patients. A randomised controlled trial was done to compare the two groups of Dexmedetomidine, and Midazolam given as preanesthetic medication intranasally.: Both the groups had comparable baseline values before premedication but there was a significant difference in the vital parameters of heart rate and systolic blood pressure after medication. The mean Parental Separation Anxiety Scale was found to be 1.4 ± 0.85 and 2.5 ± 0.98 among Dexmedetomidine and Midazolam group respectively. This was found to be significant (p &#60; 0.001). Dexmedetomidine when given as preanesthetic medication intranasally significantly controls the vitals within the normal range and produces better parental separation anxiety scores and mask acceptance scores as compared to Midazolam.
