Abstract
Background: The associations of the different blood gas parameters from different blood samples harvested at different stages during adult cardiac surgery with the postoperative outcomes are inadequately studied.
Methods: Adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) participated in this prospective observational study. Blood gas parameters from arterial, central venous, and jugular venous blood samples harvested simultaneously at pre-determined time points (baseline with the patient awake, post-anesthesia induction but before CPB, during CPB at 30°C, during CPB at 37°C (rewarming), and at the end of surgery) were correlated with postoperative outcomes including the length of mechanical ventilation (LMV), intensive care unit stay (LICU), hospital stay (LOH), and major organ morbidity and mortality.
Results: Data from 193 patients were analyzed. Multiple parameters of different blood harvested at different stages significantly correlated with one or more outcome measures based on univariate analysis (p < 0.05). However, only the jugular venous blood pH and carbon dioxide tension and the central venous blood pH at the end of surgery (pHcv-end) were significantly correlated with LMV, LICU, and LOH (p < 0.05). A more alkaline blood correlated with more favorable outcomes. After adjusting for age, surgical time, and total intravenous volume administered, multivariate analysis showed that only pHcv-end remained independently associated with LMV and LICU (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: More alkaline blood, especially the central venous blood at the end of surgery, is associated with more favorable outcomes after adult cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Background

To report the case of a surgical-induced necrotizing sclertitis (SINS) following vitreoretinal retinal surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, successfully managed by superficial muscle temporal fascia grafting.

Case presentation

An 18-year-old teenage, with a history of a twenty-three gauges vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade forrhegmatogenous retinal detachment of the left eye presented two months after surgery with intense left ocular pain, decreased visual acuity to counting fingers and eye redness. Split lamp exam showed: conjunctival infiltration with silicone oil, circumferential sclera thinningpredominantly in the superonasal quadrant with ectasia of the underling uvea). The fundus examination showed an attached retina.

Necrotizing scleritis was the retained diagnosis. Performed etiological assessment was negative.Surgical induced necrotizing scleritis was the final diagnosis. An immunosuppressive therapy based on general corticoids was started. With the immanent risk of globe perforation, superficial muscle temporal fascia grafting was performed to cover the necrotizing sclera.The patient did well postoperatively without sclera thinning or ectasia and the fascia grafting still intact without retraction after six months of follow up.

Conclusion

This is the first case in the literature thatused the superficial temporal muscle fascia as a graft for sclera reinforcement in SINS. Wepropose a new support to reinforce the deficient sclera.This graft must be associated with prompt immunosuppressive therapy at high doses.

Abstract
Background

Previous case reports presented the occurrence of ischemic optic neuropathy (ION) following intravitreal injections of antivascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF). However, no previous studies have investigated the impact of injection numbers on the risk of ION. The aim of our study was to investigate whether repeated intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF would increase the risk of subsequent ION in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Methods

A population-based, retrospective cohort study using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database was conducted from 2007 to 2013. Neovascular AMD patients receiving intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF during the period were enrolled in the study cohort. Enrollees were divided into three groups according to categorized levels of injection number (first level: < 10 times, second level: 10–15 times, third level: > 15 times). Kaplan-Meier curves were generated to compare the cumulative hazard of subsequent ION among the three groups. Cox regression analyzes were used to estimate crude and adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for ION development with respect to different levels of injection numbers. Confounders included for adjustment were age, sex, and comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, ischemic heart disease, and glaucoma).

Results

In total, the study cohort had 77210 patients. Of these, 26520, 38010, and 12680 were in the first, second, and third level groups, respectively. The Kaplan-Meier method revealed that the cumulative hazards of ION were significantly higher in those who had a higher injection number. After adjusting for confounders, the adjusted HRs for ION in the second and third levels of injection number were 1.91 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.32–2.76), and 2.20 (95% CI, 1.42–3.43), respectively, compared with the first level.

Conclusions

Among patients with neovascular AMD, those who receive a higher number of anti-VEGF injections are at a significantly higher risk of developing ION when compared with individuals who receive a lower number of injections.

Published: April 2019

Abstract
Background

Diagnosis and follow-up of retinal diseases may be improved if the thickness of the various retinal layers, in addition to the total retinal thickness, is taken into account. Here we measured the thickness of the macular retinal layers in a population-based study group to assess the normative values and their associations.

Methods

Using spectral-domain optical coherence tomographic images, we measured the thickness of the macular retinal layers in participants of the population-based Beijing Eye Study without ocular diseases and without arterial hypertension, hyperlipidemia and diabetes mellitus.

Results

The study included 384 subjects (mean age:60.0±8.0 years). In multivariable analysis, the thickness of the retinal layers in the foveal region, of all retinal layers except for the outer plexiform layer in the parafoveal area, and the thickness of the ganglion cell layer, inner plexiform layer and inner and outer nuclear layer in the perifoveal area decreased with older age (all P<0.05). Men as compared to women had higher thickness measurements of the photoreceptor layer and outer nuclear layer in all areas, and of all layers between the retinal nerve fiber layer and inner nuclear layer in the parafovea area. The associations between the macular retinal layers thickness and axial length were not consistent. The inner plexiform layer was thicker, and the ganglion cell layer and inner nuclear layer were thinner, in the temporal areas than in the nasal areas,

Conclusions

The associations between decreasing thickness of most retinal layers with older age and the correlation of a higher thickness of some retinal layer layers with male gender may clinically be taken into account.
Ocular flora in patients with intravitreal injections and topical antibiotic prophylaxis: antibiotic resistance patterns and susceptibility to antiseptic picloxydine

Published: April 2019

Abstract
Background

Repeated courses of topical ophthalmic antibiotics result in the increased resistance rates and changes in the composition of conjunctival flora with the significant increase of Staphylococcus epidermidis, the main causative agent of ocular infections. Antiseptic povidone-iodine is considered as a “gold standard” for prevention of infectious complications in eye surgery. Effectiveness of pre- and post-injection prophylaxis with topical antiseptics is under question.

Methods

Conjunctival swabs were taken in 4 groups of patients, 20 patients in each group (n=80): with 20 or more IVI and repeated courses of antibiotic eye drops; without IVI and ophthalmic operations in history (control group); with antibiotic eye drops Tobrex or antiseptic eye drops Vitabact (picloxydine) applied 3 days before the first IVI and 5 days after it. In the last two groups swabs were taken at baseline and after the treatment. Bactericidal effectiveness of picloxydine was studied in vitro against antibiotic sensitive and resistant conjunctival isolates. Minimal inhibition concentration was determined with microdilution test.

Results

Two out of three potent ophthalmic patients showed conjunctiva bacterial contamination. Along with few Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative isolates susceptible to most antibiotics, the majority (71 ‒ 77%) were coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), 40-50% of which multidrug resistant (MDR). Eye disinfection in the operating room and peri-injection courses of Tobrex or Vitabact resulted in total elimination of isolates found at baseline. However, in 10 and 20% patients, respectively, recolonization of the conjunctiva with differing strains occurred. In patients with repeated IVI and Tobrex/Maxitrol treatment, the conjunctival flora showed high resistance rates: 90% of CoNS were MDR. In the in vitro study, picloxydine showed bactericidal effect against staphylococci isolates regardless of their antibiotic sensitivity with MIC ≥ 13,56 µg/ml. Incubation of bacteria for 15 min in Vitabact eye drops, commercially available form of picloxydine, 434 µg/ml, showed total loss of colony forming units of all tested isolates including Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Conclusions

The confirmed bactericidal efficacy of picloxydine against conjunctival bacterial isolates and the presence of its commercial form, 0,05% eye drops, convenient for use by patients before and after injection, makes this eye antiseptic promising for prophylaxis of IVI-associated infectious complications.

Authors: Xia Guotong , Sun Jie , Yang Wenjin , Wu Gao-Lin , Shen Weibo 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
The removal of methyl orange (MO) in a copper-loaded silicon carbide (Cu/SiC) system under microwave (MW) irradiation was studied. Cu/SiC was synthesized by employing an impregnation method and the effects of parameters such as reaction time, catalyst dosage, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) dosage, microwave power and pH on the rate of degradation of MO were also studied. The obtained results showed that almost complete degradation was obtained in the presence of Cu/SiC catalyst within 8 min of irradiation when 100 mL of MO solution (20 mg/L), 3 ml/L of H2O2, 2 g/L of catalyst dose, 600 W of MW power, and pH 7 were applied. The Cu-bearing catalyst with H2O2 formed a Fenton-like system and the rate of generation of hydroxyl radicals (·OH) was also accelerated by subjecting to MW. From the kinetic analysis, it is revealed that the degradation of MO using the MW-Cu/SiC-H2O2 system follows the pseudo-first-order.

Published: April 2019

Introduction:The wind instrumentalist embouchure is probably one of the most demanding tasks that occurs during their musical performance. It is important to quantify the forces that are applied during the wind instrumentalist embouchure on the perioral structures.Objective:Quantify the force on the perioral structures involved during the embouchure mechanism of wind instrumentalists.Methods:Piezoresistive sensors of FlexiForceTMwere placed on the mouthpiece of 28 different wind instrumentalists, in order to obtain the applied forces transmitted to the upper lip or the lower lip. The application of the sensors were done according to the particular characteristics of the different types of wind instruments, single reed, double reed or metal. Each participant performed three times three different notes at different pitches: high, medium and low. The average medium and maximum pressure was obtained from the nine essays. The sensors were connected to a data acquisition board from National Instruments and the results displayed in LabVIEW 2011.Results:Measurement values were obtained for the different groups of wind instruments. In an ascending order, the pressures registered where for the bassoon (6g-31g), the oboe (17g-125g), the saxophone (39g-120g), the clarinet (54g-106g), the trumpet, (63g-172g), the bisel flute (73g-245g), the French horn (56g-305g), the transversal flute (220g-305g) and the trombone (201g-325g).Conclusion:Metal instrumentalists seem to apply greater forces than woodwind musicians when performing the embouchure mechanism, being in this specific case the trombone the instrument from the metal group to exert more force, while on the contrary, the bassoon registered the lower values.

Background:The investigation of new sources of raw materials and the knowledge of the composition of the food is fundamental for the evaluation of their potential and the availability of nutrients for the consumer population.Objective:This work aimed to deepen the knowledge about the crude oil of babassu fruit obtained by two different methods of extraction, cold pressing and extraction by cooking the fruit almond.Method:Total phenolic compounds contents and antioxidant activity were determined by ferric reducing antioxidant potential assay and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging capacity assay. By liquid chromatography, the content of different bioactive compounds was determined. Data was submitted to Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and compared by f test (p <0.05).Results:The results showed that for most of the bioactive compounds there was no difference between the two types of babassu oil. For those compounds where the oils differed, the virgin oil had about three times the content of the extra-virgin oil. In addition, the antioxidant activity was higher for the oil extracted by cooking of the babassu mass, ranging from approximately 2.5 times higher up to 19.2 times higher than the antioxidant activity of the babassu oil extracted by pressing.Conclusion:The process of extraction by cooking the almond mass can incorporate a larger number of bioactive components and improve the antioxidant activity of the virgin babassu oil. However, the extraction method does not influence the content of tocopherols of distinct types of babassu oil.
Comparison between Korea’s Grants-based ODA in Agriculture and Status of Food Security of its Recipient Countries in Asia
Authors: Lee Hyejin 
Published: April 2019

Introduction:
Agriculture tends to be the main employer and income source in many developing countries. Recognizing the value of agriculture for food security
and poverty reduction, major donors invest in the agricultural development through the Official Development Assistance or ODA. Of the donors, the Republic of Korea stands out with its historical experience from being a recipient to donor. However, it is not very clear with what criteria Korea would select its recipient countries to disburse its agricultural ODA. Thus, the main objective of this study is to examine a following hypothesis; Korea disburses its agricultural ODA in Asia based on the recipient country’s level of food insecurity.

Materials and Methods:
To test the hypothesis, collected data are analyzed and comparisons are made between Korea’s grants-based agricultural ODA disbursements and the status of food insecurity of its major recipients in Asia.

Results:
Although limited to the grants-based agricultural ODA, the results reveal that distribution of the agricultural ODA across the select recipient countries in Asia does not correspond to their severity of food insecurity. Rather, the least food insecure country or the Philippines received the largest agricultural ODA.

Conclusion:
It appears that at least at a recipient-country level, Korea may have other selection criteria for its grants-based agricultural ODA disbursement or more likely consider a combination of underlying factors that combine both Korea’s national interest and a recipient country’s sociopolitical environment.
Adverse Childhood Experiences Ontology for Mental Health Surveillance, Research, and Evaluation: Advanced Knowledge Representation and Semantic Web Techniques
Authors: Brenas Jon Hael , Shin Eun Kyong , Shaban-Nejad Arash 
Published: April 2019

Background
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), a set of negative events and processes that a person might encounter during childhood and adolescence, have been proven to be linked to increased risks of a multitude of negative health outcomes and conditions when children reach adulthood and beyond.

Objective
To better understand the relationship between ACEs and their relevant risk factors with associated health outcomes and to eventually design and implement preventive interventions, access to an integrated coherent dataset is needed. Therefore, we implemented a formal ontology as a resource to allow the mental health community to facilitate data integration and knowledge modeling and to improve ACEs’ surveillance and research.

Methods
We use advanced knowledge representation and semantic Web tools and techniques to implement the ontology. The current implementation of the ontology is expressed in the description logic ALCRIQ(D), a sublogic of Web Ontology Language (OWL 2).

Results
The ACEs Ontology has been implemented and made available to the mental health community and the public via the BioPortal repository. Moreover, multiple use-case scenarios have been introduced to showcase and evaluate the usability of the ontology in action. The ontology was created to be used by major actors in the ACEs community with different applications, from the diagnosis of individuals and predicting potential negative outcomes that they might encounter to the prevention of ACEs in a population and designing interventions and policies.

Conclusions
The ACEs Ontology provides a uniform and reusable semantic network and an integrated knowledge structure for mental health practitioners and researchers to improve ACEs’ surveillance and evaluation.
