BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) reduces spasticity in children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP). Intraoperative neurophysiology, triggered electromyography (trigger-EMG) is crucial in guiding sensory rootlet selection, but its reproducibility during SDR surgery has not been fully investigated. The objective of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of trigger-EMG during SDR performed in children with spastic CP.

METHODS:
A retrospective review was performed for cases where dorsal roots were stimulated twice 1 to 2 minutes apart during SDR using a specific protocol. With single-pulse stimulation of 0.2 ms width having a gradually increasing intensity from 0.01 mA until the EMG amplitude is >200 μV. Criteria were established to evaluate trigger-EMG reproducibility.

RESULTS:
This study showed that the reproducibility of trigger-EMG was excellent, as the most responsive channels in the second stimulation trial were the same as those in the first one in 90.1% of the roots stimulated. In addition, the 3 most responsive channels were mostly the same between the first and second stimulation trials in 96.9% of the roots tested. Furthermore, when comparing the evoked EMG pattern since the beginning to the end point between the 2 stimulation trials in all 131 roots, the amplitudes of trigger-EMG in 3 most responsive channels were similar to each other, particularly the most responsive one. Amplitudes of each phase in each EMG evoked were also similar to each other.

CONCLUSION:
The excellent reproducibility of trigger-EMG, as demonstrated by its consistent activation of specific spinal motor circuits, provides a solid foundation for future research. Further investigation into the underlying electrophysiological mechanisms of this reproducibility could inform the development of more refined stimulation protocols and data analysis techniques. These advancements hold promise for enhancing the accuracy of dorsal root selection during SDR and ultimately improving clinical outcomes for patients with spastic CP.

Artykuł przedstawia historię powstania i przekształceń zespołu zabudowy Wójtostwa w Głuchołazach od XIV do XIX wieku. We wstępie przedstawiono opis Wójtostwa, informacje kronikarskie oraz dotychczasową literaturę. Na podstawie badań architektonicznych wyróżniono fazy przekształceń budowli. Za jej początki przyjęto powstałe zapewne w I połowie XIV wieku założenie obronne połączone z murem miejskim. Jego rozbudowa o skrzydła południowe i zachodnie miała miejsce po zniszczeniu Głuchołaz przez husytów w 1428 i 1432 roku. Renesansową przebudowę zrealizował w 1603 roku wójt Henrich Adelsbach. W 1623 roku zakon Jezuitów nabył Wójtostwo i przekształcił na szkołę. Budowlę częściowo rozebrano po 1786 roku. W 1834 roku budynek spłonął i odbudowano go na potrzeby gimnazjum.
A Data-Driven Optimization Framework for Static Rebalancing Operations in Bike Sharing Systems
Authors: Liu Junming , Chen Weiwei , Sun Leilei 
Published: November 2024

Bike sharing systems have been widely deployed in urban cities for first- and last-mile transportation. However, because of the geographical and temporal imbalance of bike demand, bikes need to be reallocated system-wide among stations during the night to maintain a high service level while minimizing demand loss due to stockout or overcapacity. Two technical challenges remain in optimizing the static bike rebalancing operations. One challenge is to accurately predict bike pickup and dropoff demand at each station, considering demand substitution effects and subsequently determining the optimal rebalancing quantity for each station. The other is to efficiently optimize the routing of multiple rebalancing vehicles for large-scale bike sharing systems, considering outlier stations with rebalancing quantities exceeding vehicle capacity. To this end, we propose an end-to-end solution to tackle the aforesaid challenges. Specifically, we first develop deep learning-based predictors that capture the time dependencies of station-level demand, the impact of weather conditions, and the demand substitution effect by nearby stations. Based on the demand rate, a sequential simulation-based demand loss estimator is developed to find the optimal rebalancing quantities that lead to the minimum expected demand loss. Then, a mixed integer linear programming model is formulated to optimize the routing problem of rebalancing vehicles. To address the computational challenge, we propose a data-driven decomposition algorithm to support a multivehicle multivisit rebalancing strategy by decomposing the multivehicle routing problem into smaller and tractable single-vehicle routing problems, which can be solved in parallel. Finally, extensive numerical experiments using real-world data from New York City Citi Bike demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed bike demand predictors, the impact of demand substitution, and the efficiency of the data-driven optimization framework.

Authors: Raindi Devan S , Weston Paul , Chapple Iain 
Published: November 2024

A 48-year-old female patient referred to the Birmingham Dental Hospital for generalized periodontitis presented with a residual 8-mm pocket and infrabony defect around her LL2 after Step 1 and 2 of therapy. Following discussion of treatment options, a minimally invasive non-surgical technique was completed alongside the addition of a biologic, a therapeutic agent applied to enhance regenerative or reparative effects during wound healing and in this case, enamel matrix derivative. At 6 months, pocket closure was evident, as well as radiographic evidence of bony infill. The patient remains in ongoing supportive periodontal therapy at 3-monthly intervals. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Addition of biologics traditionally used during surgical therapy may provide improvements when used alongside minimally invasive non-surgical treatment.

Successful emergency surgical intervention in acute non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with rupture: A case report
Authors: Li Xing-Po , Wang Zi-Shan , Yu Hong-Xia , Wang Shan-Shan 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
The incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is rising, with cardiac rupture accounting for approximately 2% of deaths in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Ventricular free wall rupture (FWR) occurs in approximately 2% of AMI patients and is notably rare in patients with non-STEMI. Types of cardiac rupture include left ventricular FWR, ventricular septal rupture, and papillary muscle rupture. The FWR usually leads to acute cardiac tamponade or electromechanical dissociation, where standard resuscitation efforts may not be effective. Ventricular septal rupture and papillary muscle rupture often result in refractory heart failure, with mortality rates over 50%, even with surgical or percutaneous repair options.
CASE SUMMARY
We present a rare case of an acute non-STEMI patient who suffered sudden FWR causing cardiac tamponade and loss of consciousness immediate before undergoing coronary angiography. Prompt resuscitation and emergency open-heart repair along with coronary artery bypass grafting resulted in successful patient recovery.
CONCLUSION
This case emphasizes the risks of AMI complications, shares a successful treatment scenario, and discusses measures to prevent such complications.

Authors: Wei Cheng-Cheng , Huang Yu-Qing , Yu Cheng-Hong 
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND
Dyslipidemia was strongly linked to stroke, however the relationship between dyslipidemia and its components and ischemic stroke remained unexplained.
AIM
To investigate the link between longitudinal changes in lipid profiles and dyslipidemia and ischemic stroke in a hypertensive population.
METHODS
Between 2013 and 2014, 6094 hypertension individuals were included in this, and ischemic stroke cases were documented to the end of 2018. Longitudinal changes of lipid were stratified into four groups: (1) Normal was transformed into normal group; (2) Abnormal was transformed into normal group; (3) Normal was transformed into abnormal group; and (4) Abnormal was transformed into abnormal group. To examine the link between longitudinal changes in dyslipidemia along with its components and the risk of ischemic stroke, we utilized multivariate Cox proportional hazards models with hazard ratio (HR) and 95%CI.
RESULTS
The average age of the participants was 62.32 years ± 13.00 years, with 329 women making up 54.0% of the sample. Over the course of a mean follow-up of 4.8 years, 143 ischemic strokes happened. When normal was transformed into normal group was used as a reference, after full adjustments, the HR for dyslipidemia and ischemic stroke among abnormal was transformed into normal group, normal was transformed into abnormal group and abnormal was transformed into abnormal group were 1.089 (95%CI: 0.598-1.982; P = 0.779), 2.369 (95%CI: 1.424-3.941; P < 0.001) and 1.448 (95%CI: 1.002-2.298; P = 0.047) (P for trend was 0.233), respectively.
CONCLUSION
In individuals with hypertension, longitudinal shifts from normal to abnormal in dyslipidemia-particularly in total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol-were significantly associated with the risk of ischemic stroke.

Cilj ovog rada bio je istražiti čimbenike ishoda liječenja i preživljenje u bolesnika s ozljedom parenhimskih organa trbuha. U vremenskom razdoblju od siječnja 2000. do siječnja 2015. retrospektivno su pregledane povijesti bolesti bolesnika koji su imali traumatskuozljedu parenhimskih organa. Istražili smo udio bolesnika koji su liječeni operacijski i konzervativno. Zatim smo u obje skupine raščlanili bolesnike na hemodinamski stabilne i nestabilne pri prijmu. Idući korak bila je raščlamba u odnosu na spol, dob, etiologiju,stanje svijesti te na one dovedene u “zlatnom satu” i na one dovedene nakon njega. Izračunali smo ISS (engl. injury severity score)vrijednost, također bodovali težinu ozljede AIS (engl. abbreviated injury scale) vrijednošću te uspoređivali dobivene vrijednosti u odnosu na etiologiju i stanje svijesti, preživljenje i vrijeme dolaska u bolnicu. Istraživanje je obuhvatilo 89-ero bolesnika, od kojih jevećina bila muškog spola. Prosječna dob je bila 11 godina. Od ukupnog broja ozlijeđenih udio politraumatiziranih bolesnika iznosioje 50,5%. Bolesnika koji su liječeni transfuzijom krvnih pripravaka bilo je 16 -ero (17,9%). Preživjelo je 88-ero (98,8%) bolesnika.Etio loški je najviše bolesnika stradalo prilikom pada. Slezena je najčešće ozlijeđen organ, uglavnom je posrijedi bila ruptura. AIS i ISSniže su u bolesnika koji su preživjeli te u onih koji su dovedeni u “zlatnom satu” i pri prijmu bili pri svijesti. Na preživljenje utječu hemodinamska stabilnost pri prijmu, AIS i ISS vrijednosti, ozljede ostalih organa u trbušnoj šupljini i ostatku tijela, stanje svijesti pri prijmu,dolazak u “zlatnom satu”. Hemodinamska stabilnost, stanje svijesti i AIS i ISS vrijednosti pokazali su se kao kvalitetni prediktori preživljenja nakon traumatskih ozljeda trbuha.

INTRODUCTION:
United States Multi-Society Task Force colonoscopy surveillance intervals are based solely on adenoma characteristics, without accounting for other risk factors. We investigated whether a risk model including demographic, environmental, and genetic risk factors could individualize surveillance intervals under an “equal management of equal risks” framework.

METHODS:
Using 14,069 individuals from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial who had a diagnostic colonoscopy following an abnormal flexible sigmoidoscopy, we modeled the risk of colorectal cancer, considering the diagnostic colonoscopy finding, baseline risk factors (e.g., age and sex), 19 lifestyle and environmental risk factors, and a polygenic risk score for colorectal cancer. Ten-year absolute cancer risks for each diagnostic colonoscopy finding (advanced adenomas [N = 2,446], ≥3 non-advanced adenomas [N = 483], 1–2 non-advanced adenomas [N = 4,400], and no adenoma [N = 7,183]) were used as implicit risk thresholds for recommended surveillance intervals.

RESULTS:
The area under the curve for the model including colonoscopy findings, baseline characteristics, and polygenic risk score was 0.658. Applying the equal management of equal risks framework, 28.2% of individuals with no adenoma and 42.7% of those with 1–2 non-advanced adenomas would be considered high risk and assigned a significantly shorter surveillance interval than currently recommended. Among individuals who developed cancer within 10 years, 52.4% with no adenoma and 48.3% with 1–2 non-advanced adenomas would have been considered high risk and assigned a shorter surveillance interval.

DISCUSSION:
Using a personalized risk-based model has the potential to identify individuals with no adenoma or 1–2 non-advanced adenomas, who are higher risk and may benefit from shorter surveillance intervals.
Da crítica antropológica ao sujeito antropológico espiritual
Authors: Mendes Lucas Oliveira 
Published: November 2024

Resumo: Sob o olhar foucaultiano o presente artigo percorre o caminho de investigação acerca do ser humano, tão nomeado, interpretado e dito de várias maneiras, que ao longo do tempo, inserido nas várias teorias do campo das ciências humanas se perdeu em sua constituição e no conhecimento de si. O objetivo principal aqui presente é encontrar o homem antropológico em suas possíveis dimensões para além do empírico, ainda que seja na experiência da vida que ele é conhecido e estudado. Utilizando a análise de Foucault da obra Antropologia de um ponto de vista pragmático de Immanuel Kant, apareceu um ser aberto, que mesmo fugindo das delimitações metafísicas, foi possível trazer à luz, o humano, como um sujeito espiritual, marcado por sua liberdade. Essa compreensão só foi possível através da estreita relação do pensamento foucaultiano com o kantiano, que visa o ser humano como um sujeito antropológico aberto à constituição de si em meio às tantas possibilidades do fazer algo de si mesmo.

From anthropological criticism to the spiritual anthropological subject
Abstract: Under the Foucauldian view, the present follows the path of investigation about the human being, so named, interpreted and said in various ways, that over time, inserted in the various theories of the field of human sciences, it was lost in its constitution and in the knowledge of yes. The main objective here is to find the anthropological man in his possible dimensions beyond the empirical, even if it is in the experience of life that he is known and studied. Using Foucault's analysis of the work Anthropology from a pragmatic point of view by Immanuel Kant, an open being appeared that, even escaping from the metaphysical boundaries, it was possible to bring to light this being, who is human, as a spiritual subject, marked by his freedom. This understanding was only possible through the close relationship between Foucauldian and Kantian thought, which aims at the human being as an anthropological subject open to the constitution of himself in the midst of so many possibilities of making something of himself.

A metodologia de Leo Strauss enquanto arte de ler e a redescoberta da esquecida arte de escrever
Authors: Coletto Bruno Irion 
Published: November 2024

Resumo: O aumento no interesse pelo pensamento de Leo Strauss no Brasil é fato consumado, o que vem representado pela recente tradução de várias de suas obras para o Português, sem contar uma incipiente produção de textos acadêmicos sobre o seu trabalho. Tido como um autor hermético, difícil de ler, a compreensão de sua filosofia política demanda, então, o entendimento de sua metodologia. Articular as razões e os modos de Leo Strauss é o objetivo da presente pesquisa. O resgate – e a explicitação – do modo esotérico de escrever presente na tradição da filosofia política que remonta à Grécia Antiga, realizados por Strauss, passa, primeiro, pelo entendimento da crítica que ele articula contra a modernidade. Se o modo esotérico de escrita, em vista do regime de perseguição que os filósofos viviam, era secreto, por que Strauss se lançou na tarefa de revelá-lo? A compreensão das regras de interpretação que Strauss propõe, juntamente com a compreensão dos níveis de perseguição que podem se fazer presentes na comunidade política, só é possível após o entendimento da metodologia de Strauss enquanto uma arte de ler.

Leo Strauss' methodology as an art of reading and the rediscovery of the forgotten art of writing
Abstract: The increasing interest in Leo Strauss´ thought in Brazil is a fact, which is represented by the recent translation of several of his works into Portuguese, not to mention an incipient production of academic texts about his work. Regarded as a hermetic author, difficult to read, the understanding of his political philosophy demands, then, the understanding of his methodology. Articulating the reasons and ways of Leo Strauss is the objective of the present research. The rescue – and the explanation – of the esoteric way of writing present in the tradition of political philosophy that goes back to Ancient Greece, carried out by Strauss, passes, first, through the understanding of the criticism that he articulates against modernity. If the esoteric way of writing, under the regime of persecution that philosophers lived, was secret, why did Strauss undertake the task of revealing it? Understanding the rules of interpretation that Strauss proposes, along with understanding the levels of persecution that can be present in the political community, is only possible after understanding Strauss´ methodology as an art of reading.

A crítica de Leo Strauss ao historicismo de Edmund Burke
Authors: Villaça Theo Magalhães 
Published: November 2024

Resumo: O presente artigo visa examinar a crítica do pensador teuto-americano Leo Strauss ao estadista irlandês Edmund Burke, sobretudo exposto no livro Direito Natural e História. Apesar de ambos os autores serem frequentemente tidos como exemplos de pensadores conservadores, Strauss enquadra Burke dentro do que ele chama de historicismo, uma grande mazela do pensamento moderno. A filosofia política do estadista irlandês, ao ressaltar a importância das circunstâncias locais para a ordem política, se afasta da busca por uma ordem eterna e, portanto, pode resultar em um relativismo não só político, mas também moral. A crítica de Strauss expõe divergências, as quais, levadas a sério, revelam que reduzir esses autores a simples caracterizações, faz com que se perca a verdadeira dimensão de suas obras.

Leo Strauss’ critique to Edmund Burke’s historicism
Abstract: This article aims to examine the criticism of the German-American thinker Leo Strauss to the Irish statesman Edmund Burke, especially exposed in the book Natural Law and History. Although both authors are often held up as examples of conservative thinkers, Strauss frames Burke within what he calls historicism, a major evil in modern thought. The political philosophy of the Irish statesman, by emphasizing the importance of local circumstances for the political order, moves away from the search for an eternal order and, therefore, can result in a relativism that is not only political, but also moral. Strauss' criticism exposes divergences, which, taken seriously, reveal that reducing these authors to simple characterizations causes the true dimension of their works to be lost.

Fragmentos acerca do método em Geografia
Authors: Vlach Vania Rubia Farias 
Published: November 2024

[...] No momento atual, parece-nos possível afirmar que discussões atinentes à epistemologia em Geografia, explicitando a questão da teoria, do método e do objeto no seu interior, têm-se difundido em proporções consideráveis, embora muitas vezes inseridas no bojo do cientificismo, isto é, sob os cânones positivistas da "verdadeira ciência" — aquela que é imune às ideologias. Na medida em que o método científico atua corno o "divisor de águas" entre ciência e ideologia (ou ciência e política), e em que há um certo consenso, até por parte dos geógrafos, a respeito do seu näo-privilegiamento dentro da vasta produção geográfica tradicional, cumpre indagar, inicialmente, se a chamada Geografia crítica não corre o risco de, primeiro, apenas inverter o discurso; segundo, de continuar abordando os mesmos assuntos; terceiro, de fazer a apologia de um único caminho para este saber (e sua prática), o que se nos afigura como um perigoso "passo para trás" nesse percurso decisivo da Geografia em direção ao desvendamento do social (sentido lato), como um importante momento do amplo e complexo processo de constituição de uma outra sociedade.
