Authors: Mamand Dyari Mustafa , Aziz Nazk Mohammed , Omer Rebaz Anwar 
Published: August 2024

Abstract
Transition metal compounds (TMCs) provide the benefits of vast reserves, affordability, non-toxicity, and environmental friendliness, making them highly sought-after in recent times. Integrating transition metal salts into polymers may result in substantial enhancements in optical and electrical characteristics, making them appealing for many applications. Transition metal ions may display a range of electronic transitions, which enables the adjustment of absorption and emission spectra. This characteristic has significant value in applications such as light-emitting devices (LEDs) and sensors. The photoluminescence of polymers may be improved by the addition of transition metal salts, which results in light emission that is both more brilliant and more efficient. On the other hand, this is advantageous for screens and optoelectronic devices. The presence of transition metal salts in polymers may help to improve their optical stability, hence lowering the probability that the polymers will degrade or change color over time. When it comes to the performance of optical devices over the long run, this is quite essential. Elevating the electrical conductivity of polymers is possible via the use of transition metal salts. This is very helpful in the process of developing conductive polymers for use in applications such as electronic fabrics, organic solar cells, and flexible electronic devices. Transition metal salts can affect the electrical band structure of polymers, which enables the band gap of the material to be tuned. This is very necessary in order to maximize the amount of light that is absorbed by photovoltaic devices. Through having all these benefits, we conducted a review to find out the effects on polymeric materials.

Authors: Ghafouri Bijar , Rolander Bo , Gerdle Björn , Wåhlin Charlotte 
Published: August 2024

Abstract

Objectives
The aim of this study was to investigate a panel of inflammatory biomarkers in plasma from forklift truck operators (FLTOs) and healthy controls, and their relation to neck pain characteristics.

Methods
From employees in a warehouse, 26 FLTOs were recruited and 24 healthy age- and sex-matched controls (CONs) were recruited via advertisement. The inclusion criterion for FLTOs was that they should operate reach decker and/or counterbalanced tilting mast forklift trucks. All participants were asked to answer a questionnaire covering demographic data, pain intensity numeric rating scale (NRS), anatomical spread, psychological distress, and health aspects. Pain sensitivity was measured using a pressure algometer. Blood samples were collected and analyzed for inflammatory proteins in plasma using a panel of 71 cytokines and chemokines. Multivariate data analysis including orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) was performed to identify significant biomarkers.

Results
Thirty percent of FLTOs reported NRS > 3 in the neck. Shoulder pain was common in 26% of the FLTOs. Pain and discomfort that most often prevented completion of activities were in the neck (20%), lower back (32%), and hips (27%). The FLTOs reported significantly (p = 0.04) higher levels of anxiety than the CON group and they had significantly lower pressure pain thresholds in the trapezius muscle on both right (p < 0.001) and left sides (p = 0.003). A significant OPLS-DA model could discriminate FLTOs from CON based on nine inflammatory proteins where the expression levels of four proteins were upregulated and five proteins were downregulated in FLTOs compared to CONs. Twenty-nine proteins correlated multivariately with pain intensity.

Conclusions
The profile of self-reported health, pain intensity, sensitivity, and plasma biomarkers can discriminate FLTOs with pain from healthy subjects. A combination of both self-reported and objective biomarker measurements can be useful for better understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying work-related neck and shoulder pain.

Objective: Orthognathic surgery is surgery on abnormalities of dentofacial that occur in the maxilla, mandible, or both. Determine measurement of the type of dentoskeletal abnormality in malocclusion using cephalometric analysis. Steiner analysis is used because it is considered that the Sela tursica-nasion-point A (SNA) angle, Sela tursica-nasion-point B (SNB) used to describe the relationship between the maxilla and the mandible.
Material and Methods: The study involved 30 patients who underwent orthognathic surgery between April 2017 and April 2022 at Hasan Sadikin Hospital Bandung. Cephalometric radiography was utilized for assessment, employing the Steiner method to analyze various angles. Patient characteristics, including gender and age, were also observed. Parameters such as the average angle of SNA, SNB, and ANB were examined, alongside diagnoses, the number of corrected jaws, and the type of orthognathic surgery.
Results: The findings indicated a predominance of male orthognathic surgery patients (63.3%), with the majority falling within the age range of 19 to 20 years (40%). Grade III malocclusion was the most prevalent diagnosis (96.7%), with double jaw correction being the most common procedure performed (90%). Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy was utilized in 93% of cases, followed by Le Fort I osteotomy in 96.7% of cases and chinplasty in 16.7% of patients. The average SNA, SNB and ANB was 83.8o, 90.6o, and -6.8o, respectively.
Conclusion: The findings indicated a higher frequency of orthognathic surgery among patients diagnosed with class III malocclusion. Additionally, a notable proportion of patients underwent simultaneous orthognathic surgery on both the maxilla and mandible.

The Use of Cognitive Task Analysis to Improve Anesthesia Skills Training for Postoperative Extubation
Authors: Embrey, Ed.D, CRNA Karen , Yates, Ed.D Kenneth 
Published: August 2024

This study examines knowledge gains in 25 nurse anesthesia trainees, following the implementation of a novel instructional design, which incorporated cognitive task analysis (CTA) to teach an adult postoperative extubation procedure. CTA is a knowledge elicitation technique employed for acquiring expertise from domain specialists to support the effective instruction of novices. Instruction guided through CTA is effective in improving surgical skills training for medical students and surgical resi-dents. The standard, current method of teaching clinical skills to novices in nurse anesthesia practice relies on recall-based instruction from domain experts. However, this method is limited by the constraints of expertise, including automation of procedural knowledge by the expert practitioner.Automated knowledge escapes conscious awareness and access, thus impeding clear explication of comprehensive essentials for task execution during instruction. CTA guided instruction has been shown to maximizeconceptual, declarative and procedural knowledge gains in novice practitioners by clearly explicating the essentials employed when experts execute tasks. Knowledge gains for the task of postoperative extubation in 13 junior and senior nurse anesthesia trainees were compared to those of 12 trainees, receiving standard instruction. The study results indicate that CTA-based instruction has a positive and significant effect on procedural knowledge gains in the novice anesthetist.

Authors: Tracey, MSN, CRNA Andy 
Published: August 2024

Purpose: Understanding student nurse anesthetists’ views on nurse anesthetist role transition.Design and Methods: Three focus groups were conducted with a total of 17 nurse anesthesia students. Nurse Anesthesia Programs in the Chicago area were contacted to elicit volunteers. Discussions were audiotaped and transcribed verbatim. Thematic analysis using constant comparison was completed within and across focus groups.Findings: Nurse Anesthesia students defined successful role transition from RN to CRNA as the ability to function independently with minimal backup or assistance while ensuring patient safety through a successful anesthetic. The following themes were identified as factors affecting SRNAs’ successful role transition: Preceptor, Mentoring, Reflection, Training Variety, and CRNA role modeling.Conclusions: Perceptions on what factors affect the role transition from RN to CRNA vary depending upon the level of training SRNAs have had in their anesthesia program. SRNAs nearing the end of their training have a firmer grasp on which factors affect their transition. This pilot study has allowed this researcher to examine the perceptions of SRNAs at different levels in their training and allowed for future changes in planning for a full study.
Debunking Volatile Anesthetic Cost Myths Between Sevoflurane and Desflurane
Authors: Varkey John , Welliver, CRNA, DNP Mark 
Published: August 2024

Inhalational agents have been a mainstay in anesthesia practice. Nitrous oxide, the world’s first inhalational agent, was synthesized in 1772 and is still in use today. By the late 1800s diethyl ether, and chloroform, volatile anesthetic agents (VAAs) were introduced and administered by anesthesia professionals to facilitate surgery. Volatile anesthetic agents, while inhalation agents, were liquids as opposed to a gas at room temperature. Therefore, VAAs were inhalation agents that were volatile (evaporated) emitting gases that produced anesthesia. Halogenated (addition of Cl, Fl, Br) hydrocarbon chain VAAs were created in the 1940s and were safer, more stable, and more potent anesthetic agents. The early VAAs had negative side effects and properties that included flammability, high incidence of nausea and vomiting, and high tissue solubilities causing prolonged wake up times (emergence). In order to meet the growing needs for a rapid acting and dissipating anesthetic agent for surgery, lower solubility volatile anesthetic agents (VAAs) were created: isoflurane (1981), desflurane (1992), and sevoflurane (1995). Nurse anesthetists have better control and timing of their anesthetic technique by using these lower solubility agents. The two newest and relatively more expensive agents, sevoflurane and desflurane, have many benefits including faster induction and emergence. Using sevoflurane or desflurane may or may not increase the cost of anesthesia when compared to older VAAs. Is it beneficial to choose one of these newer agent’s based on cost differences between the two? Determining the actual cost of specific VAAs is important to many individuals and institutions that attempt to buffer the rising cost of healthcare by cost effective use of drugs and therapies.
