Published: April 2024

Abstract
The immature stages of the patagonian podonomine (Diptera: Chironomidae) genus Rheochlus (Diptera: Chironomidae) have been unknown although the adult stage was described over half a century ago. New pupal associations with described adults belonging to two species of Rheochlus allow better understanding of the genus, its diversity and its phylogeny. The pupa of Rheochlus insignis Brundin is the same as an unreared damaged pupal taxon designated Podochlus sp. “Canteras’‘ by Brundin and is described more completely here. Inclusion of R. insignis in a molecular phylogenetic analysis shows it to be sister to two specimens (one a male, the other pharate female) allocated previously to Podochlus but better transferred to Rheochlus. The male morphology is compatible with Rheochlus prolongatus Brundin but we refrain from asserting identity by using ‘cfr.’ prolongatus to indicate the status. Molecular evidence also provides association of the female adult and pupa that are newly described here. We validate Rheochlus as distinguished on pupa and adult, with the type-species Rheochlus insignis from Patagonian Chile and Argentina, Rheochlus prolongatus Brundin from Southern Patagonia Argentina and possibly also from central Patagonia, Rheochlus latisetus Siri & Brodin from Patagonia, and the eastern Australian Rheochlus wirthi Brundin. The latter two species remain known only from their original adult male descriptions. Strengthened support for our concept of Rheochlus as a valid genus, sister group to Podochlus, derives also from an expanded and reanalysed morphological matrix.
Text-Critical Edition of the List of Solomon’s Officials (3 Kgdms 4:8–19)
Authors: Torijano Pablo A. , Trebolle Julio 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
The List of Solomon’s officials (1 Kgs/3 Kgdms 4:8–19) presents many textual problems both in the MT and the LXX texts. It constitutes then a perfect testing ground for the critical edition of 3–4 Kingdoms. This paper intends to revise the Rahlfs’ approach and conclusions, in particular regarding the correspondence εἷς = ‮אֶחָד‬‎ attested differently in the different text forms, and presents a commented preliminary edition of the passage, explaining the critical choices of the editors.

Résumé
Au croisement de la sociologie du couple, des études de genre et de la sociologie de la littérature, cet article propose une définition de la notion de couple littéraire. Entendu comme la rencontre d’impératifs partiellement contradictoires (les impératifs de coopération du couple et de singularisation du champ littéraire), le couple littéraire est une institution singulière qui permet d’approcher de manière inédite les changements de postures de Simone de Beauvoir, des années 1940 aux années 1970.
L’expérience vécue dans La Vieillesse
Authors: Ehrsam Raphaël 
Published: April 2024

Résumé
La question que soulève cet article est celle de savoir si Beauvoir se considérait elle-même comme une phénoménologue lorsqu’elle a écrit La Vieillesse. L’auteur défend l’idée que Beauvoir se considérait davantage comme une philosophe marxiste, du fait qu’à ses yeux, les descriptions phénoménologiques qui parsèment La Vieillesse ne constituent qu’un moment dans un processus de pensée intégratif plus large, qu’il convient plutôt de décrire comme une entreprise de pensée « dialectique ».
The Pastor as Physician of Souls in Gregory of Nazianzus’s Oration 2:16–34
Authors: Seki Yuta 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Gregory of Nazianzus is known for his role in the Pneumatomachian debates of the fourth century and the resultant Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed. He is less well known for his Oration 2, which was simultaneously a personal defense of his initial flight from the pastorate and also a pastoral theology which highlighted the dangers, difficulties, and duties of those called to the ministry. The oration is long, containing 170 sections, and so the focus will be on a smaller portion, highlighting the theme of the pastor as the physician of souls. After dealing with a few preliminary matters—such as the setting for the oration and other introductory issues—the article moves to an analysis of sections 16–34 of Gregory’s Oration 2.
Cursed Be the Name

Published: April 2024

Abstract
From the structure of the book to its enigmatic law codes, Leviticus poses a number of interpretive questions for readers. This article aims to tackle a variety of these questions raised by the blasphemer narrative. I will consider especially the relationship between the nature of the crime committed and the legal decision that follows. I further intend to show how the internal concerns of this pericope cohere with the concerns of the H redactor and the passage’s immediate context between chapters 23 and 25. While no doubt a difficult task, coming to an understanding of the blasphemer narrative is vital for grasping the structure and argument of Leviticus. Furthermore, this narrative raises obvious questions concerning the justice of God. Does the punishment of the blasphemer fit the crime? Does this sentencing fit with general notions of justice in the ancient world, or even with the God of Israel’s own legal standards?

Published: April 2024

Background Skydiving is an increasingly popular recreational activity in the United States and worldwide. While it is considered a high-risk sport, the United States Parachute Association reported a fatality of .28 per 100 000 jumps in 2022. Although mortality rates are low, the true rate of survivable injuries is unknown. Injuries requiring hospitalization are not uncommon and may be underreported in the literature. Anticipating these injuries and analyzing short-term outcomes following parachuting accidents would be useful for the development of mitigation strategies and to increase the safety of jumpers. Methods A retrospective cohort review of 126 consecutive patients presenting to a Level II Trauma Center after skydiving accidents between 2016 and 2023. Patient baseline characteristics, patterns of injury, surgical procedures, and in-hospital outcomes were reviewed. Results A total of 126 patients were included. One hundred and seventeen patients (93%) presented immediately following the accident, 65 (51.6%) were trauma activations, and 14 (11.1%) patients experienced loss of consciousness. Fractures of the lower extremity occurred in 57 (45%), fractures of the spine 48 (38%), upper extremity 13 (10%), pelvis 11 (9%). Of the spinal injuries, 10 injuries occurred in the cervical spine, 16 thoracic, 22 lumbar, 5 sacral, and 3 coccygeal spine. Eleven patients (9%) suffered multilevel spine injuries. Mean injury severity score was 7 (range 0-75). A third of patients required at least 1 surgical procedure (n = 43, 34%). Median length stay was 2 days (IQR 1, 5). Of patients who survived to our trauma center, there were two mortalities, both due to catastrophic intracranial hemorrhage. Discussion Although the 30-day mortality rate for patient who presented to our trauma center is low, it can bear significant risks including major injury. The most common injuries were lower extremity and spinal in origin with a third of patients overall requiring at least one operation.
Trends in Suspected Opioid Drug Overdose Events in Emergency Medical Service Encounters in South Carolina, 2019-2022
Authors: Tori Marco , Galardi Christina 
Published: April 2024

Objectives: The number of drug overdoses and drug-related deaths has increased across the United States in recent years. Reports of suspected opioid drug overdoses identified through emergency medical services (EMS) are valuable sources of information for shaping the public health response to drug overdoses. The objective of this study was to describe trends in the number of EMS-reported suspected opioid drug overdose events in South Carolina from 2019 through 2022. Methods: We included reports of suspected opioid drug overdoses if they met the definition of nonfatal opioid overdose syndrome in our analysis. We analyzed statewide data reported from EMS agencies to biospatial, Inc, from January 2019 through December 2022 to understand demographic trends for a statewide overdose and response program in South Carolina. Results: In 2022, a total of 11 078 suspected opioid drug overdose events, or 216.4 per 100 000 South Carolina residents, were reported by EMS. During the 4-year study period, the number of EMS-reported suspected opioid drug overdoses increased by 82%, with African American people experiencing a 133% increase and White people experiencing a 68% increase. The number of opioid overdoses increased among all age groups during the study period. Approximately 84% of opioid overdoses were reported in urban counties, but rural counties had a higher number of opioid overdose reports per capita than urban counties. Conclusions: Monitoring trends in suspected opioid drug overdoses allows decision makers to adjust resources and programs for overdose response and is essential for local coordinated response. Continued monitoring of trends is needed for an equitable response to prevent opioid drug overdoses.

Published: April 2024

Objective A single centre experience with chylothorax in post cardiac surgical patients. Methods Retrospective review. Results Chylothorax developed in 55 out of 873 operated patients (6.3%). Median age of the chylothorax cohort was 95 days (range 1–995). Neonates constituted 36% and 49% were infants. Group-1(35 patients-treated during the years 2011–2015) included those who were managed with low fat diet initially with other standard measures including steroid, octreotide, pleurodesis, lymphangiogram or thoracic duct ligation whenever required.Group-2 (20 patients, treated between year 2016–2018) were managed with nil per oral, total parenteral nutrition, extended use of milrinone and no use of chest tube suction with other above standard measures when required.Group-1 and group-2 were comparable in terms of their age and weight ( p > 0.05).We observed lower volume of chest drainage, shorter intubation time, length of intensive care stay and hospital stay in group-2 compared to group-1 though they were statistically not significant ( p > 0.05). Occurrence of massive chylothorax (>20 ml/kg/day) in group-1 was significantly higher [18 patients (51%) in group-1 vs 4 patients in group-2 (20%) (Chi-square 5.25, p = 0.02)]. In hospital mortality in group-1 was higher compared to group-2 (5/35 = 14.5% vs 1/20 = 5%), however, it was statistically not significant [risk ratio 2.86; 95% CI 0.36, 22.77; p = 0.59)]. Acute kidney injury was observed in about 25% of patients who had chylothorax. A higher mortality was observed in patients with chylothorax who had acute kidney injury [5/14 (35%)] compared to those who did not have acute kidney injury [1/41 (2.4%)] (Chi-square 11.89, p = 0.001)]. Summary In a heterogenous cohort of post-cardiac surgical patients who developed chylothorax, our suggested new regime (nil per oral, parenteral nutrition, extended use of milrinone and no suction applied to the chest drains) contributed to reduce the frequency of massive chylothorax occurrence significantly.

Published: April 2024

Background: Urgent-start peritoneal dialysis (PD) carries a similar efficacy and safety profile compared to urgent-start haemodialysis (HD) but is only sparsely applied due to resource issues and concerns of complication risks. Furthermore, few data exist on adverse outcomes associated with central venous catheter (CVC) insertions in urgent-start HD patients. Thus, we sought to compare patient and dialysis-related outcomes in patients undergoing urgent-start PD or HD. Methods: All patients initiating urgent-start PD in a tertiary research hospital in 2005–2018 were included in this retrospective, single-centre, comparative study and matched with urgent-start HD patients of similar age and chronic kidney disease aetiology. All urgent-start PDs were initiated within 72 h after catheter insertion, and urgent-start HDs were performed via a CVC. All analyses were performed at 3 months and at 1 year of follow-up, respectively. Results: Thirty-three patients who commenced urgent-start PD and 58 matched urgent-start HD control patients were included. Altogether, 26 patients (29%; PD: 36%, HD 24%) died within the 1-year follow-up, and patient survival was similar at 3 months (hazard ratio (HR): 1.15, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.35–3.81, p = 0.82) and at 1 year of follow-up (HR: 0.64, 95% CI: 0.30–1.39, p = 0.26) between the study groups. There were no differences in the total kidney replacement therapy (KRT)-related infection rate ( p = 0.66) or cumulative first-year hospital care days ( p = 0.43) between the treatment groups. Altogether, 139 CVCs were inserted during the 1-year follow-up. The number of CVCs per patient was associated with the emergence of blood culture-positive bacteraemia and increased cumulative first-year hospital care days. Conclusions: Patient survival, cumulative first-year hospital care days and total KRT-related infection rate at 3 months and 1-year follow-up are similar between urgent-start PD and urgent-start HD patients. Furthermore, CVC insertion rate is associated with incident blood culture-positive bacteraemia and increased cumulative first-year hospital care days.

Published: April 2024

Background The mechanism of emamectin benzoate (EMB—a macrocyclic lactone insecticide like abamectin) action involves the disruption of glutamate-gated chloride channels and GABA receptors in insects, leading to paralysis and death. EMB overdose can breach the blood–brain barrier, resulting in severe poisoning and altered consciousness. Aim Review EMB poisoning presentations in patients and reevaluate clinical manifestations. Materials and Methods This retrospective study reviewed (August 31, 2008–August 31, 2023) medical university hospital records. We analyzed symptoms, patient characteristics, vital signs, Glasgow Coma Scale scores, laboratory findings, and outcomes. Results Ten patients (males: 6, females: 4, median age = 64.5 years) experienced EMB poisoning. Common symptoms included sore throat, gastrointestinal distress, dyspnea, and altered consciousness; two patients showed laryngeal corrosive injuries. Management involved activated charcoal administration, gastric lavage, and intensive care unit admission. Discussion Sore throat and corrosive injuries were distinctive presentations of EMB poisoning, warranting vigilance. Potential mechanisms of corrosive injury include skin and eye irritation effects of EMB, the solvents of which might exert corrosive action. Conclusion EMB poisoning manifests as diverse symptoms, including sore throat, gastrointestinal symptoms, central nervous system depression, and potential aspiration pneumonia. Recognizing and promptly managing EMB poisoning are crucial for enhancing patient outcomes and minimizing complications.

Objective: To examine the association between late adolescence ADHD and the risk of serious injury in early adulthood. Method: A nationwide cohort study utilizing data from the Military Health Examinations Database for potential military recruits (age 16.5–18 years), cross-referenced with the Israeli National Trauma Registry (2008–2020). Individuals with and without ADHD (mild/severe) were compared for early adulthood injury risk using Cox models. Results: This study compared 76,403 participants with mild ADHD (18.76%) and 330,792 without (81.24%), alongside 2,835 severe ADHD participants (1.11%) versus 252,626 without (98.89%). Adjusted hazard ratios for injury-related hospitalization were 1.27 (95% CI [1.17, 1.37]) for mild ADHD and 1.40 (95% CI [1.09, 1.79]) for severe ADHD, compared to non-ADHD. Conclusions: Adolescents with ADHD, regardless of severity, had a significantly higher risk of hospitalization due to injury that persists into early adulthood, underscoring the importance of recognizing ADHD as an injury risk and incorporating it into injury prevention strategies.

Published: April 2024

Objectives Indigenous people experience higher rates of kidney failure than do non-Indigenous Peoples. However, compared to Indigenous patients, health care systems deliver kidney transplantation to non-Indigenous patients at a substantially higher rate and more frequently as the first treatment of kidney failure. Indigenous Māori patients in Aotearoa New Zealand report numerous barriers to kidney transplantation. We explore the perspectives of clinicians as stakeholders in the delivery of kidney transplantation. Methods In 2021/2022 we conducted in-depth qualitative interviews with key stakeholder clinicians within kidney transplantation services in Aotearoa New Zealand, asking them about the issues for Māori patients. We used thematic analysis informed by critical theory to identify key findings and used structural coding to categorize the themes at the level of society, health system, and health services. Results We interviewed 18 clinicians (nine nephrologists, including two transplant nephrologists, and nine nurses, including six transplant coordinators). We identified nine themes from stakeholders related to delivery of kidney transplantation services to Māori patients and whānau (family), categorized according to three main levels: Firstly, at the level of society (the impact of colonization and distrust). Secondly, the health care system (failure to prevent and manage kidney disease, health care model delivers inequitable outcomes, and inadequate Māori health professional workforce). Thirdly, health care services (transplantation reliant on patient and family resources, complex assessment causes untimely delays, clinical criteria for transplantation, and lack of clinician ability to effect change). Conclusions Delivery of kidney transplantation to Indigenous Peoples is impacted at the level of society, health care system, and health care service. To address inequities, a broad approach that addresses each of these levels is required.

Published: April 2024

Background and Objective Homonymous hemianopia caused by cerebrovascular disease may improve over time. This study investigated whether functional neuroimaging can predict the prognosis of hemianopia due to cerebral infarction. Methods We studied 19 patients (10 men and 9 women) with homonymous hemianopia and compared them with 34 healthy subjects (20 men and 14 women). Cerebral glucose metabolism was measured by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET), 1 to 6 months after the onset. Bilateral regions of interest (ROIs) were selected from the posterior and, anterior striate cortices, extrastriate cortex, and thalamus. Furthermore, semi-quantitative data on cerebral glucose metabolism were obtained for ROIs and compared with the data obtained for homologous regions in the contralateral hemisphere by calculating the ipsilateral/contralateral (I/C) ratio. Results The I/C ratio for the cerebral glucose metabolism in the posterior striate cortex was high (>0.750) in 8 patients, and the central visual field of these patients improved or showed macular sparing. The I/C ratio for cerebral glucose metabolism in the anterior striate cortex was high (>0.830) in 7 patients, and the peripheral visual field of these patients improved. However, no improvement was observed in 9 patients with a low I/C ratio for cerebral glucose metabolism in both the posterior and anterior striate cortices. Conclusion Measurement of cerebral glucose metabolism in the striate cortex is useful for estimating visual field prognosis. Furthermore, FDG-PET is useful in predicting the prognosis of hemianopia.

Published: April 2024

Background: Severe coronavirus 2019 disease (COVID-19) causes acute hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Once these symptoms are resolved, patients can present systemic deterioration. Objective: The two objectives of this study were as follows: to describe the results of a pulmonary rehabilitation program (PRP), which is divided into three groups with different numbers of sessions (12, 24, and 36), and to associate the variables of pulmonary function, exercise performance, and functionality with the number of sessions and functional improvement. Design: Prospective, observational study. Methods: PRP consisted of aerobic + strength + flexibility exercises under the supervision and individualized into 12, 24, or 36 sessions (12s, 24s, and 36s), depending on the evolution of each patient. At the beginning of the study and immediately after the intervention, forced vital capacity (FVC), maximal inspiratory pressure, 6-minute walk test (6MWT), sit-to-stand test (STS), maximal handgrip strength (HGS), Fatigue Assessment Scale, Post-COVID-19 Functional Status (PCFS), and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) were measured. Results: The proposed PRP demonstrated a positive effect on pulmonary function, exercise performance, and HRQoL, regardless of the number of sessions. A higher score on the PCFS and more days on IMV were associated with the increased likelihood of needing more sessions, whereas more meters on the 6MWT in the initial evaluation was associated with a reduced likelihood of needing more sessions. Finally, more repetitions on the STS and less distance covered on the initial 6MWT were associated with a greater improvement in exercise performance evaluated with the 6MWT. Conclusion: Supervised and individualized PRP for patients with severe post-COVID-19 improves pulmonary function, exercise performance, functionality, and quality of life. Functionality, distance covered on the 6MWT, and the days on IMV are central to the scheduling of the number of sessions for these patients.
