ABSTRACT

Background:
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a vital mechanical circulatory support used with increasing frequency in complex congenital cardiac surgeries. This study evaluated the outcomes of a protocol-based venoarterial (VA) ECMO program following congenital heart surgeries.

Methods and Results:
This was a retrospective review of 198 patients who underwent VA-ECMO after congenital cardiac surgeries at our institute between 2004 and 2023. Patients were divided into pre-ECMO protocol (2004–2017) and post-ECMO protocol (2018–2023) implementation. There were 107 patients in the preprotocol era and 91 in the postprotocol era. We compared weaning from ECMO and survival to hospital discharge between the two eras. An analysis of the factors influencing survival to hospital discharge was also done. ECMO was initiated through the central cannulation technique through median sternotomy in all patients. The median age and weight at initiation were 4 months (interquartile range [IQR] 1–33.5 months) and 4.4 kg (IQR 3.3–10.1 kg), respectively. The successful weaning of the ECMO (n = 67/91, 73.6%) and survival to discharge (n = 43/91, 47.3%) were higher in patients of the postprotocol era. However, it was not statistically significant. Higher risk adjustment for congenital heart surgery-1 >3 and acute kidney injury were independent predictors of poorer survival to hospital discharge.

Conclusions:
A protocol-based ECMO program may improve outcomes of successful weaning and survival to discharge in patients undergoing congenital cardiac surgeries.

Published: October 2024

Abstract

Background:
Spondyloptosis is a condition in which one vertebral body is completely displaced over the corpus of the adjacent one. It is more common in the lumbar region of the spine, but it very rarely occurs in the cervical spine. In this study, we report a case of post-traumatic cervical spine spondyloptosis in a child.

Case Report:
We describe a case of a 14-year-old male, who was admitted for cervicalgia with incomplete neurological deficit as a result of falling from a tree. Computed tomography (CT) of the neck revealed a posterior C5–C6 spondyloptosis with anterior spondylolisthesis of C7–T1. Surgical intervention was performed by the anterior approach only. The patient recovered completely after 2 months.

Conclusion:
Traumatic cervical spondyloptosis is an injury with rare occurrence with varied clinical presentations. Until now, there is no consensus concerning the most effective treatment for spondyloptosis. Satisfactory clinical and good outcomes can be obtained by anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion.

Published: October 2024

В статье анализируется формирование психологической готовности сотрудников органов внутренних дел к ведению единоборства с правонарушителями. Отмечается, что подготовка сотрудников полиции должна включать три основных компонента: психологический, профессиональный, юридический. Именно из них состоит служебная деятельность полицейских. Психологическая подготовленность для сотрудника полиции, как действующего, так и будущего, играет важную роль. Без нее он не сможет правильно применить имеющиеся у него навыки и знания, так как может либо упустить момент, когда пора действовать, либо растеряться или испугаться. Практически занятия дадут не только уверенность в себе, но и научат грамотному применению навыков в различных сложных ситуациях.
The article analyzes the formation of psychological readiness of employees of the internal affairs bodies to conduct combat with offenders. It is noted that the training of police officers should include three main components: psychological, professional, and legal. It is of these that the official activities of police officers consist. Psychological preparedness for a police officer, both current and future, plays an important role. Without it, he will not be able to correctly apply his existing skills and knowledge, as he may either miss the moment when it is time to act, or get confused or scared. In practice, classes will not only give you self-confidence, but also teach you how to correctly apply skills in various difficult situations.

Abstract. Greenhouse gas stabilisation in the atmosphere is one of the most pressing challenges of this century. Sequestering carbon in the soil by changing land use and management is increasingly proposed as part of climate mitigation strategies, but our understanding of this is limited in quantitative terms. Here we collate a substantial national and regional data set (15 790 soil cores) and analyse it in an advanced statistical modelling framework. This produced new estimates of the effects of land use on soil carbon stock (Sc) in the UK, different in magnitude and ranking order from the previous best estimates. Soil carbon stocks were highest in woodlands, followed by rough grazing, semi-natural grasslands, and improved grasslands, and they were lowest in croplands. Estimates were smaller than the previous estimates, partly because of new data, but mainly because the effect is more reliably characterised using a logarithmic transformation of the data. With the very large data set analysed here, the uncertainty in the differences among land uses was small enough to identify consistent mean effects. However, the variability in these effects was large, and this variability was similar across all surveys. This has important implications for agri-environment schemes seeking to sequester carbon in the soil by altering land use, because the effect of a given intervention is very hard to verify. We examined the validity of the “space-for-time” substitution, and, although the results were not unequivocal, we estimated that the effects are likely to be overestimated by 5 %–33 %, depending upon land use.

Published: October 2024

The digital revolution has transformed reading promotion in a world where technology competes with traditional entertainment, posing challenges for libraries, especially in engaging audiences. Adapting actively is crucial to making reading appealing. The rise of book influencers and reading promoters on social media is pivotal for reading education, offering libraries opportunities to diversify programs. Using the "walkthrough" method on four platforms, our research identified 60 Hungarian book influencers and reading promoters. Structured interviews with 23 influencers aimed to unveil their activities, motivations, and the aspirations and reading experiences behind their content. The study contributes to literary and cultural mediation, exploring the intersection between libraries and literacy promoters. It addresses how literacy promoters can enhance reading promotion in the community, emphasizing their role in generating interest in books and literature. Findings suggest that social media and influencers complement libraries' literacy strategies, benefiting both libraries and readers. Collaborating with influencers can foster a reading culture aligned with the digital era's demands. Encouraging influencers to collaborate could also educate their followers, transforming them into library users.
