La datation des aqueducs de Lyon : nouvelles données et contribution de l’analyse statistique bayésienne
Authors: Oberlin Christine , Lefèvre Jean-Claude 
Published: June 2024

Les quatre aqueducs du Gier, de la Brévenne, du Mont d’Or et de l’Yzeron ont été construits pour alimenter en eau la ville antique de Lyon/Lugdunum. La datation de ces aqueducs a longtemps posé question jusqu’à ces dernières années où l’archéologie préventive a permis d’apporter des données nouvelles. Des analyses radiocarbones, ainsi que des datations dendrochronologiques et archéomagnétiques ont pu être réalisées sur ces aqueducs, excepté sur celui du Mont d’Or, apportant ainsi des informations supplémentaires pour aborder leur chronologie.Le logiciel de modélisation chronologique (ChronoModel) a été employé pour affiner la chronologie en utilisant toutes les datations archéométriques et archéologiques. Des datations peuvent ainsi être proposées pour la construction de ces trois aqueducs : autour du changement d’ère pour l’Yzeron, le milieu du ier s. apr. J.-C. pour celui de la Brévenne et la première moitié du iie s. apr. J.-C. pour celui du Gier.
La datation dendrochronologique du coffrage de fondation d’une pile du pont-siphon de l’Yzeron à Beaunant (Sainte-Foy-lès-Lyon, Métropole de Lyon)
Authors: Blondel François , Baldassari David 
Published: June 2024

La pile 18 du pont-siphon de Beaunant, située dans le lit de l’Yzeron et examinée lors d’une fouille préventive, présente un massif de fondation ayant nécessité lors de sa mise en œuvre un coffrage composé de planches en sapin maintenues par des poteaux. Au-delà de l’apport archéologique d’une telle découverte, ces bois présentent, pour certains, un nombre de cernes suffisant pour l’obtention d’une datation par dendrochronologie. Cette dernière, de 110 apr. J.-C., permet de définitivement ancrer la construction de l’aqueduc du Gier sous le règne de Trajan. L’acquisition des données dendrochronologiques permet également d’élargir la réflexion aux pratiques d’exploitation du bois d’œuvre et ses circuits d’approvisionnement, avec une provenance qui est potentiellement à rattacher aux environs du tracé de l’adduction.

Les réseaux d’alimentation en eau des pentes de la Croix-Rousse et de la presqu’île de Lyon
Authors: Ramona Jules 
Published: June 2024

Jusqu’à présent, les travaux portant sur le système hydraulique antique lyonnais se sont essentiellement concentrés sur la ville haute. Si l’existence d’un réseau d’eau sous pression en ville basse était suspectée, aucune synthèse n’a pour autant été entreprise à ce sujet. À partir d’une collecte exhaustive des données relatives aux structures hydrauliques (puits, tuyaux, bassins et fontaines), un état des connaissances des modes d’alimentation en eau sur les pentes de la Croix-Rousse et en presqu’île est réalisé dans cet article. Malgré des conditions d’installation contraintes au niveau de la terrasse alluviale, la zone d’étude présente en effet un potentiel aquifère important et diversifié, qui a su être exploité dès les premiers temps de l’occupation. Les résultats de l’analyse permettent alors d’apprécier une exploitation directe efficiente de toutes les ressources disponibles, en contexte public, d’habitat ou artisanal : galeries de captage, nappes phréatiques, eaux pluviales, eaux de rivière. Techniquement difficile à mettre en œuvre, la conduite de l’eau propre sous pression pose cependant question. Si son existence est clairement attestée sur les pentes de la Croix-Rousse au moins dès l’époque claudienne, au nord et au centre de la presqu’île à partir de la période flavienne, l’origine de son approvisionnement, les conditions techniques de son fonctionnement et les limites de son extension géographique demeurent hypothétiques.

Published: June 2024

Abstract

Introduction:
This study aims to analyze common adverse effects following immunization that are temporally associated after receiving the above 2 doses of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 Vaccine (Covishield) COVID-19 vaccines among health-care worker from January 2021 to April 2021, in the central region of India in a tertiary care hospital.

Materials and Methods:
A surveillance-based study was conducted between January 2021 and April 2021 among the health-care worker of the tertiary care hospital in the central part of India. The study was designed to identify the adverse effects reported after receiving a ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 Vaccine (Covishield) COVID-19 vaccination and demographic details were collected.

Results:
Within 48 h of the initial immunization dose, 651 mild adverse effects in all participants were documented. Headache (n = 168, 16%), fever (n = 105, 10%), fatigue (n = 115, 11%), and muscular discomfort (n = 115, 10%) were among the frequent side effects. One hundred and five minor adverse effects were reported between 3 and 7 days. No major adverse effects were observed after the first and second doses of vaccine.

Conclusion:
The first 48 h were the most common observational period for the short-term adverse effects of both dosages. After 15 days of both doses, the incidence declined for consecutive weeks until it was completely absent. The symptoms were transient and of a minor in nature. There were no documented severe vaccine-related side effects. Our research demonstrated that the vaccination had a decreased adverse event profile, was safe, and was well-tolerated.
Speech Emotion Recognition in Native and Nonnative Languages
Authors: Bharadwaj Lopamudra , Roy Urmi , Ram Jyoti , Telakkadan Haripriya , Abhishek B. P. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background:
Speech emotion recognition can be experimentally tested in native and nonnative languages, as the mechanisms involved would differ across these languages. The recognition of speech in the native language is mediated through the language, and in nonnative languages, speech emotion recognition is facilitated through affective prosody. Linguistic prosody is anchored by the left hemisphere, whereas the right hemisphere coordinates the right hemisphere. The current study was carried out with the aim of testing speech emotion recognition in native and nonnative speakers with the motive of assessing the basic role of language in mediating prosody.

Methods:
The study was carried out on native and nonnative speakers of Malayalam, Assamese, and Bengali. Fifteen sentences (5 declarative, 5 interrogative, and 5 exclamatory) were recorded from native speakers of the aforementioned languages; these sentences were played to native speakers and nonnative speakers of a given language. For instance, the sentences in Malayalam were played to native speakers of Malayalam and nonnative speakers (speakers of Assamese and Bengali). The response sheet had three smileys, and the participants were asked to mark the appropriate smiley after listening to the sentences. Each correct response was given a score of 1, whereas an incorrect response was given a score of 0.

Results:
The native speakers of Malayalam, Assamese, and Bengali secured scores of 13.14 and 15 in their native languages, respectively. In the nonnative language, the participants secured scores in the range of 2–5. The Kruskal–Wallis test showed a significant difference between the native and nonnative languages. The results depicted that the native speakers of a language were able to identify the speech emotions easily, whereas they had difficulty identifying the sentences in the other two languages. The same trend was observed for speakers of Malayalam, Assamese, and Bengali. This showed that speech emotion recognition was linguistically driven.

Conclusions:
The results highlight that the prosody is more linguistically driven as the performance in the native language was better than in nonnative languages.
Elemental Treatment for All Disorders of Communication
Authors: Hegde M. N. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Clinical literature in speech-language pathology highlights the multiplicity of treatment procedures. Clinicians tend to believe that each disorder of communication is treated with a unique set of procedures that are not applicable to other disorders. However, a critical examination of treatment programs and treatment research reports reveals only a few effective treatment procedures: (1) instructions, (2) models, (3) prompts, (4) shaping, (5) fading, and (6) response-contingent consequences. These are the elemental treatment procedures effective in treating all disorders of communication. The same treatment elements are also evaluated in all treatment efficacy research studies. Furthermore, regardless of diagnostic categories, there are only four categories of treatment target behaviors: (1) speech sound production, (2) language production, (3) vocal and resonance characteristics, and (4) fluency. Each of the four categories has multiple subtargets.

Published: June 2024

Abstract
Pilonidal disease is a chronic inflammatory perianal disorder and presents a significant disease burden worldwide, affecting the working-age population. The recurrent nature of the condition and the need for multiple treatments contribute to its significant impact on both quality of life and financial resources. Surgical management is commonly employed for chronic and recurrent cases, although newer non-operative approaches are emerging. In India, Ayurveda Ksharasutra therapy is widely embraced by health seekers as a treatment option for pilonidal disease. A 22-year-old male presented at the Shalya Tantra outpatient department with a recurring issue of swelling in the natal cleft, persisting for 7 months, accompanied by bloody discharge. Despite undergoing a Limberg’s flap operation for the same complaint, the swelling recurred within 10 days post-surgery, followed by subsequent discharge. The failed surgical intervention prompted the patient to seek alternative management. Ksharasutra treatment and oral Ayurvedic medicine achieved complete recovery within a month. Under local anesthesia, the patient maintained regular activities during treatment, with no recurrence observed in a 1-year follow-up. This case highlights the effectiveness of Ksharasutra therapy, a minimally invasive Ayurvedic approach, in managing recurrent pilonidal sinus. The method, providing quick recovery, minimal discomfort, and reduced cost, presents a promising alternative to conventional surgical interventions.

Abstract

BACKGROUND:
Work-related stress has been found to have a detrimental effect on the individual’s productivity, quality of work, health, and personal life. Nursing has been identified as an occupation with high stress levels owing to complex job requirements that demand full physical and mental attributes, high responsibility, and job timings. Many Ayurveda interventions have demonstrated adaptogenic properties, and the proposed manuscript presents the design and protocol of the study, an Ayurveda intervention, Ayush-SR, in occupational stress in nurses.

OBJECTIVE:
To assess the clinical efficacy and safety of Ayurvedic medicine Ayush-SR in the management of occupational stress among nurses.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A prospective, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, two-arm study has been designed to enroll a total of 120 nurses from a tertiary hospital in New Delhi, India. They will be screened for occupational stress based on a Professional Life Stress Scale (PLSS) score between 15 and 45, to meet the selection criteria. The participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio and allocated to two tabs of either Ayush-SR in the dose of 500 mg or its matching placebo twice a day after food for 90 days. The two-arm intervention comparison study includes a follow-up of 90 days with an assessment at the end of every 30 days.

OUTCOME MEASURES:
The primary outcome is the change in scores of PLSS. The secondary outcomes include the clinical safety assessment, changes in the scores of Quality of Life (by WHOQOL-BREF), and Manasa Bhava (Ayurveda-based psychobehavioral parameters) factors.

Ethics:
Ethics approval was taken from the Institutional Ethics Committee following which recruitment commenced in February 2021.

Cryotherapy as a non pharmacological alternative for the management of postoperative endodontic pain after one visit root canal treatment using three irrigating regimens at different temperatures
Authors: Pupneja Vartika , Jindal Neetu , Aggarwal Renu , Sachdeva Aman Deep Kaur 
Published: June 2024

Background:
The goal of the present study was to assess the effect of cryotherapy application at various temperatures in the reduction of postoperative pain after a single-visit (SV) root canal treatment (RCT).

Aim:
The present study aimed to evaluate the postoperative pain after intracanal cryotherapy with saline at different temperatures.

Methodology:
Sixty participants aged ≥18 years were included in this clinical trial. All patients with good general health indicated for SV RCT were included in the present study. Preoperative Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores were obtained by percussing the tooth, and written consent was obtained. The access cavities were prepared, cleaning and shaping were done, and the patients were allocated into three groups based on final irrigation: Group I – saline at room temperature (37°C) (control group), Group II – cold saline (at 4°C), and Group III – cold saline (at 2.5°C). After drying, the canal obturation was done in the same appointment. Postoperative pain was recorded at 24, 48, and 72 h and 7 days with VAS. In case of severe pain, an analgesic was prescribed.

Statistical Analysis Used:
The Chi-square test was used to analyze the data.

Results:
Both cryotherapy irrigation groups showed the lowest postoperative pain at 24, 48, and 72 h and after 7 days. The analgesic intake was higher in Group I as compared to other groups.

Conclusion:
Cryotherapy is a promising nonpharmacological treatment alternative for postoperative pain in SV RCT.
Detection of Barr bodies in exfoliated oral mucosal cells for sex determination using oral rinse-based cytology: A cross-sectional study
Authors: Jacob Mathew , Palani Rajathi , Boopathy Narmada 
Published: June 2024

Background:
Sex determination is essential in forensic science, anthropology, and medical diagnostics. Traditional methods, such as DNA analysis, are resource intensive and time-consuming. This pilot study explores the utility of oral rinse-based cytology for detecting Barr bodies in exfoliated oral mucosal cells from saliva as a more accessible and efficient alternative.

Aim:
This study aimed to assess the viability of rinse-based cytology in identifying sex through the detection of Barr bodies.

Materials and Methods:
In the study, 60 participants aged 20–30, free of lesions, and nonsmokers/nondrinkers, were evenly divided into male and female groups. Unstimulated saliva was collected from each participant between 9 and 10 am Participants were instructed to tilt their heads slightly forward to accumulate saliva and then spit into disposable sterile containers. After centrifugation, two smears were prepared and stained with Papanicolaou (PAP) and hematoxylin and eosin (H and E) stains. The smears were labeled (single-blinded) and examined for the presence of Barr body by two oral pathologists.

Results:
H and E stain had a mean Barr body count of 2.38 and a standard deviation of approximately 2.731, whereas PAP stain had a higher mean count of 3.57 with a standard deviation of 3.933. Levene’s test showed significant differences (P = 0.000) in variances between the staining methods (F = 21.001, df = 118, P < 0.001), but the average Barr body count difference of about 1.183 with P = 0.058 was not statistically significant (P > 0.05).

Conclusion:
Oral rinse-based cytology offers a noninvasive, cost-effective, and time-efficient approach to sex determination. While this pilot study demonstrates its potential, further research involving larger and more diverse populations is required to validate its reliability fully. This innovative approach has the potential to impact various scientific and forensic disciplines, offering a practical alternative to traditional methods.
Perception of dentists toward over-the-counter or nonprescription dental products: A questionnaire-based survey
Authors: Vaid Sanjeev , Sharma Deepak , Singh Atul , Negi Shanta , Malhotra Aditi , Mahajan Ankit 
Published: June 2024

Introduction:
The oral health-care market has been one of the leaders in research on the chemistry and biology of the mouth, fostering the development of various oral care products that have significantly enhanced the lives of millions of people around the globe. Considering the many choices of over-the-counter (OTC) products available in the marketplace, it is increasingly difficult to select the proper products. Therefore, it is crucial to comprehend the many characteristics of these OTC dental medications.

Aim:
The aim of this study was to assess the perception and preference of dentists toward OTC or nonprescription dental products using a questionnaire.

Materials and Methods:
A questionnaire-based cross-sectional survey was conducted to assess the perception among dental surgeons regarding OTC dental products. One hundred and two filled questionnaires were received from various dentists through Google Forms. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics.

Results:
A total of 102 filled questionnaires were received and analyzed using descriptive statistics. 27.5% of dental surgeons recommended toothbrushes and mouthwash for daily oral hygiene maintenance. 85% recommended mouthwash based on clinical experience with 53% preferring it to maintain gingival health. 89.2% thought that companies misinform people about their products, which sometimes leads to problems such as dental abrasion, gum recession, and hypersensitivity, and 94.1% believed that more stringent regulation should be made to control unscientific publicity of these products.

Conclusion:
Most of the dental surgeons recommended the use of OTC dental products based on clinical experience and the specific indication for underlying disease. The preferred products included toothpaste, toothbrushes, mouthwash, interdental cleaning aids, and herbal products. The majority of dentists thought that the indiscriminate use of OTC dental products could lead to dental abrasion and gum problems, so strict regulation on the sale of such products should be done.

Authors: El- Sayyad Mai M , El-Shorbagy Mohamed S , Allam Waleed A , Nasef Mohammed H 
Published: June 2024

Background
Recurrent keratitis due to herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection is called herpes simplex keratitis.

Aim of the work
The aim of the study was to assess the incidence of herpes simplex keratitis to total infectious keratitis, risk factors, and complications of different presentations of herpes simplex keratitis.

Patients and methods
This prospective and observational clinical study was carried out at the cornea unit of the Tanta University Ophthalmology Hospital on 100 patients who suffered from herpes simplex keratitis during 1 year from the first of January 2021 to the end of December 2021.

Results
The incidence of HSK was 100, 5.12% cases of total cases of keratitis (1950) who attended the Ophthalmology Outpatient Clinic. The incidence of HSK peaks in middle age from 20- to 60 years, younger patients tend to have more recurrences and complications leading to a greater reduction of vision.

Conclusion
Recurrences of the disease are the major cause of ocular morbidity. HSV stromal keratitis is found to occur more commonly in recurrences than other types. Earlier diagnosis through increased suspicion in patients with risk factors and rapid diagnostic techniques improve outcomes for HSK patients.
Prevalence of visual loss and compliance to the management plan of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients (hospital-based study)
Authors: El-Hameed Shahber Heba R A , El-Bedewy Hazem A , El-Koddousy Mona S , Eid Tarek E-M 
Published: June 2024

BackgroundGlaucoma treatment seeks to improve the patient’s health and quality of life by maintaining visual function without producing unwanted side effects. Currently, the only known and treatable risk factor for primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is decreased intraocular pressure. Numerous studies have shown that treating glaucoma or ocular hypertension with ocular hypotensive medications slows the onset of POAG or the progression of visual field loss.AimsThe purpose of this study was to determine how much visual impairment from glaucoma correlated with how well POAG patients adhere to their care plan.Patients and methodsFrom January 2018 to December 2019, 200 Egyptians with POAG were selected for this cross-sectional study from Tanta University’s glaucoma outpatient clinic.ResultsHigh education, regular follow-up visits, fewer prescription adverse effects, ease of medication use, good visual status, and favorable perception of their vision were all characteristics in univariate analysis that significantly improved adherence levels. Only low education levels, higher difficulty using glaucoma drops, and increased adverse drug reactions were statistically significant predictors of poor adherence to glaucoma treatment in multivariate analysis. Age, sex, visual acuity, the number of glaucoma drops used, the length of therapy, financial support, and glaucoma control did not have a statistically significant prognostic value for low compliance.ConclusionThis study showed that noncompliance is mostly a multifaceted issue among Egyptian glaucoma patients.
