Médias arabes à Istanbul
Authors: Gad Nouran 
Published: June 2024

Depuis les soulèvements de 2011, d’importants mouvements migratoires ont convergé vers la Turquie. Parmi ces populations, des journalistes et professionnels des médias « arabes » ont trouvé refuge à Istanbul. Il est question, dans cet article, des structures médiatiques syriennes et égyptiennes qui se développent dans le contexte de l’exil et qui sont des espaces privilégiés de formation et de politisation. À partir de l’étude des espaces socioprofessionnels de l’exil, nous interrogeons l’étendue de la liberté offerte à ces populations exilées, qui sont en réalité contraintes par le contexte de migration et par les contextes des pays de départ.
Les (re)maniements de l’arabisme dans un cadre partisan
Authors: Khalil Aya 
Published: June 2024

Figure du mouvement national arabe à Saïda à partir des années 1930, Maarouf Saad (1910-1975) fonde en 1973 l’Organisation populaire nassérienne (OPN), un parti nationaliste arabe à vocation socialiste. Au fil des décennies, l’OPN connaît des transformations qui coïncident avec les mutations politiques régionales et globales, tout en entretenant une continuité à la fois avec le type de socialisation politique de ses dirigeants, mais également avec son univers de référence arabiste qui fait son identité politique. L’article propose d’interroger les usages divers et les significations plurielles de l’arabisme sur près d’un siècle, à travers l’étude de l’OPN, en particulier des trajectoires de ses dirigeants, des ressources du parti et de sa culture politique, en articulation avec les différentes conjonctures politiques.
Se laver au hammam
Authors: Francez Émilie 
Published: June 2024

Cet article explore des jeux de frontières spatiales, sociales et culturelles qui se manifestent dans les hammams de la ville de Marseille, à partir de l’étude des pratiques et des représentations de la propreté, en relation avec les configurations spatiales des établissements et leur implantation dans la ville. En adoptant une conception de la frontière comme un « espace » – physique ou symbolique – où s’opèrent des circulations et des séparations, j’interrogerai la façon dont les hammams traduisent en leur sein des frontières propres à la société dans laquelle ils s’inscrivent.
Exploring nurse-led cystoscopy: A systematic review of safety, efficacy, and applicability in urogynecology
Authors: Siddharth Aditi , Tucker Nadia Muspratt , Cartwright Rufus 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Cystoscopy is traditionally performed by doctors with specialist training. Increasing demand and workforce challenges have led to prolonged wait times for cystoscopy. Nurse-led clinics have been successful in many medical fields, but their widespread adoption for cystoscopy remains limited in urogynecology. The systematic review aimed to assess the effectiveness of nurse-led cystoscopy clinics, focusing on safety, acceptability, and service impact. A search was performed in Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, and conference abstracts using MeSH terms, until February 2021. Study selection and data extraction were performed independently by two reviewers with a third acting as arbitrator. Narrative synthesis was used to report the findings due to the heterogeneity of the studies. The review included 25 urology studies with most addressing bladder cancer surveillance. Nurse-led cystoscopy clinics were found to be as safe and effective as consultant-led clinics, with comparable diagnostic yield and cancer detection rates. Adverse outcomes were rare. Patients and staff showed high levels of acceptability, with patients reporting better experiences and timely appointments. Nurse-led clinics significantly reduced wait times and improved continuity of care for follow-up cystoscopies. Nurse-led cystoscopy clinics offer a potential solution to address the challenges faced by urogynecology departments. These clinics are safe, effective, and well accepted by patients and staff and well established in urology. Successful implementation requires commitment from management and the multidisciplinary team, along with the establishment of protocols and regular audits. Further research and randomized controlled trials are needed to strengthen the evidence in this field.

Authors: Khadri Syed Najeebullah , Anand R Shankar , Priyadharsini K Soundarya , Prasad T. Krishna 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background:
Preemptive analgesia involves the introduction of an analgesic regimen before the onset of surgical stimuli. Paracetamol and ketorolac are effective in blunting postoperative pain scores and opioid consumption, but their comparison, when used preemptively, has been less studied. The study aim to compare the clinical efficacy of intravenous (IV) paracetamol and IV ketorolac given preemptively, to blunt the postoperative pain among patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries.

Materials and Methods:
This was a double-blinded randomized control study conducted on 48 patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries, and they were allotted into groups of 24 each. Patients in Group 1 received an IV paracetamol infusion of 1 g over 10–15 min, 1 h before surgery. Group 2 received IV ketorolac 30 mg in 100 mL NS over 10–15 min, 1 h before surgery. The primary aim of the study was to monitor postoperative pain using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The secondary aim was to monitor the rescue analgesia with the opioid. Hemodynamics and sedation score were monitored every 2 h till 12 h postsurgery.

Results:
The mean time to the first rescue drug among the paracetamol group was lower and statistically significant (P < 0.05) compared to the ketorolac group. The pulse rate, VAS, mean systolic blood pressure (SBP), Mean arterial pressure (MAP), and sedation score among the paracetamol group were insignificant compared to the ketorolac group at different time intervals.

Conclusion:
Postoperatively, sedation was not significantly different between the groups. The pain score was significantly lower and the time to first rescue was significantly higher among the ketorolac group compared to the paracetamol group. The preemptive use of IV ketorolac provided better postoperative analgesia compared with IV paracetamol in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic surgeries.
Profile of Candida bloodstream infections among blood culture-positive patients at a tertiary care hospital
Authors: Shreya S. , Bhat K. Sandhya 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background:
Candidemia is a cause of concern today, due to their high rates of association with morbidity and mortality. Automated blood cultures are the gold standard tools for the evaluation of suspected cases of sepsis. This study was done to document the proportion of candidemia, Candida profile, susceptibility to fluconazole, and associated risk factors among suspected cases of sepsis.

Materials and Methods:
This descriptive study involved the retrospective analysis of data from 30 patients who were positive for Candida bloodstream infections. The patient demographic details and associated risk factors were documented. Candida isolates were identified by their colony morphology, germ tube test, growth character on CHROMagar Candida, and carbohydrate fermentation tests. Antifungal susceptibility testing to fluconazole was performed.

Results:
The overall prevalence of candidemia was 0.33%. The median age distribution of patients with culture-positive candidemia was 54.5 years. The associated risk factors among patients with candidemia were diabetes (60%), chronic kidney disease (26.7%), acute respiratory distress syndrome (23.3%), chronic liver disease (23.3%), and cerebrovascular accident (16.7%). The most common Candida species isolated was Candida tropicalis (46.7%), followed by Candida parapsilosis (13.3%), Candida krusei (10%), and Candida albicans (6.7%). The fluconazole sensitivity was documented to be 86% of isolates.

Conclusion:
Thorough knowledge of the background of candidemia, changing patterns of Candida profile, and resistance to first-line antifungals is essential to understand the presenting illness to its fullest potential and start appropriate empiric antifungal treatment while keeping in mind the risk factors.

Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background:
Specific learning disability is one of the neurodevelopmental disorders with problems in one of the basic skills such as reading, writing, and arithmetic. Identifying at an early age can lead to a proper referral and reduce the occurrence of psychosomatic symptoms.

Materials and Methods:
This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of specific learning disability (SLD) in children aged 6–14 years who presented to the pediatric outpatient department (OPD) and to find out the association between SLD and somatic symptom disorder. A retrospective hospital-based study was done in the child guidance and rehabilitation center, department of paediatrics of a teaching hospital in Puducherry. Data from all children aged 6–14 years who came to the pediatric OPD during February 2017–2022 were included and all children with incomplete medical records, incomplete recording of assessment in the register of child guidance and rehabilitation center obvious hearing and visual impairment, those with an intellectual quotient <70, and all sick children were excluded from the study. The medical records of all patients who were evaluated by a child psychologist were audited through hospital information management software-specific learning disabilities were assessed using the NIMHANS Learning Disability score. The intelligence quotient was assessed using Malin’s Intelligence Scale for Indian Children.

Results:
A total of 5457 children aged 6–14 years were included and 364 children (364/5457; 6.6%) had different grades of SLD. The children who were presenting with somatic symptom disorder had (OR – 9.64, 95% confidence interval – 7.51– 12.37, P < 0.0001) a significant chance of having SLD.

Conclusion:
The prevalence of specific learning disabilities is 6.6%. There is a six-fold association between SLD and psychosomatic disorder.
Impact of Supportive Care Interventions on Quality of Life in Pediatric Hematologic Disorders: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Authors: Alghubaishi Somayah Ali , Aldahmashi Arwa S. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract:
Supportive care is employed in pediatric hematology to improve children’s quality of life (QoL). This study explores the impact of supportive care modalities on the QoL in pediatric hematologic disorders. Studies were searched from online databases and selected against predetermined eligibility criteria. A random-effects subgroup meta-analysis was conducted to calculate the standardized mean difference (SMD) at 95% confidence interval. Subgroups were based on physical, emotional, familial/social, and scholarly functionalities. Six studies met the requirements for inclusion. The meta-analysis reported a significant change in QoL when comparing initial QoL scores to final QoL scores (SMD −1.11 [−1.54, −0.68], P < 0.00001). When compared to a control standard treatment, the impact of these interventions lacks significance (SMD −0.01 [−0.67, 0.65] [P = 0.97]). Included studies explored interventions such as group creative art therapy, social support, adapted physical activity, and nurse-led interventions (custom). Standard hospital care and supportive care interventions have a relatively similar impact on the QoL of children hematologic patients.
Evaluation of Immunophenotypic Markers in Diagnosis and Prognosis of Atypical Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Authors: Sharifi Liqaa Mohammed Al 
Published: June 2024

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:
Atypical chronic lymphocytic leukemia diagnosis (aCLL) constitutes of monoclonal B lymphocytes of more than 5000 with unique morphological and immunophenotypic features different from classical or typical CLL. By immunophenotyping, aCLL is differentiated from typical CLL in the negative expression of either one or two immunophenotypic markers, mostly CD23 and/or CD5, provided that the patient does not have the diagnostic criteria of any other lymphoid neoplasm. aCLL patients are usually presented clinically in an aggressive manner and have worse outcomes compared to classic CLL.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
This cross-sectional study includes 36 patients diagnosed as aCLL compared to 36 patients diagnosed as typical CLL. Diagnosis depends on blood film morphology and immunophenotyping by 8-color flow cytometry, the markers that are used for diagnosis depend on Matutes scoring system of CLL with the addition of CD200 and CD43, in addition to prognostic markers CD38 and CD305. The clinical staging system was applied, and the patients were divided into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups. Follow-up program for 6–12 months with evaluation of their hematological and clinical response and assessment of their remission state as was instituted in the hematological center.

RESULTS:
CD5 and CD23 are negative in 16.6% and 33.3% of aCLL patients, respectively, whereas CD200 and CD43 are positively expressed in 100% and 83.33% of aCLL patients, respectively, co-expression percentage of both markers in 83.33%. aCLL cases were commonly presented with high-risk group and usually have markers that are linked to poor prognosis, including negative expression of CD305 in 83.3% and positive CD38 expression in 75% of cases and only 5.56% of patients achieved remission state.

CONCLUSIONS:
aCLL is characterized by immunophenotypic differences in comparison to typical CLL. A definitive diagnosis needs additional markers, mainly CD200 and CD43; the prognosis of aCLL is worse than classical CLL.

Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
Patients with significant maxillary atrophy who are not candidates for standard implants now have an option thanks to zygomatic implants. Long-term statistics on difficulties and success are, however, scarce.

Methods:
A tertiary care center’s patient data were retrospectively analyzed. Included were patients who underwent zygomatic implant surgery between 2017 and 2022. This research gathered and examined data on follow-up, surgical techniques, complications, demographics, and implant features.

Findings:
There were 100 patients in all. 92% of the implants were successful, and 92 of them survived. Peri-implantitis (20%), soft tissue dehiscence (15%), sinusitis (10%), prosthesis fracture (8%), and infection (5%), were among the biological consequences. In summary, zygomatic implants have the potential to help individuals with severe maxillary atrophy recover, but close observation and effective management of any problems are necessary to maximize results. To enhance patient care and improve treatment regimens, further research is required.

Authors: Paul Moumita , Bhattacharyya Mouchumee , Kalita Apurba Kumar , Sharma Shashi Bhushan , Singh Moirangthem Nara , Kalita Manoj Kumar 
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Objective:
The aim is to assess the radiation dose received by the dysphagia–aspiration-related structures (DARS) and radiation-related dysphagia in intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) arms and compare the results between both the techniques in patients with oropharyngeal cancer.

Materials and Methods:
A hospital-based prospective approach and histologically proven oropharyngeal carcinoma patients were selected for the analysis. A total of 30 patients were equally allocated to the two treatment arms: Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and 3-Dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT). Patients were treated to a dose of 70 Gy in 35 fractions with or without chemotherapy. DARS comprises superior pharyngeal constrictor muscle, middle pharyngeal constrictor muscle, inferior pharyngeal constrictor muscle, larynx, and esophagus.

Results:
IMRT has shown an advantage over 3DCRT in reducing the dose to the DARS with significant P values (except for the esophagus). The P value of DARS was significant for V30, V65, V70, D50, and D80, whereas the P value was insignificant for V50 and V60. Dysphagia in the 3DCRT arm was higher in grades than in the IMRT arm when assessed with the National Cancer Institute common terminology criteria for adverse events, version 5.0 (CTCAE v5.0) grading system.

Conclusion:
IMRT has an advantage over 3DCRT in terms of the dose received by the DARS, resulting in reducing the incidence of dysphagia. It is improving the quality of life of patients with oropharyngeal cancers.
Effects of JPMR and listening to om chanting on attention and psychological states among university students: A randomized controlled trial
Authors: Jain Nancy , Gupta Ram Kumar 
Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT

Background:
Previously, both psychological and yogic relaxation techniques have shown a reduction in anxiety and also an improvement in cognition and mental health. In authors’ knowledge, no study has been conducted to assess the immediate effects of the Jacobson Progressive Muscle Relaxation (JPMR) on attention and psychological states. Hence, the aim of the present study was to assess the immediate effects of the JPMR and listening to Om Chanting on the attention and psychological states, i.e,., (i) happiness, (ii) anger, (iii) emotional stability, and (iv) positivity among university students.

Design:
The research design used in this study is a randomized controlled design.

Materials and Methods:
In the present study, 90 university students with ages 18­23 years (mean ± standard deviation: 21.5 ± 2.3 years) were randomized into three intervention groups, i.e,. JPMR, listening to Om Chanting and quiet sitting (QS) as a control group. The time duration for each intervention was 20 min. Each participant was assessed for (a) attention using six-letter cancellation test and (b) psychological states, i.e,. (i) happiness, (ii) anger, (iii) emotional stability, and (iv) positivity using the Visual Analog Scale, before and after all three interventions. Paired t-test was performed to compare before and after values of each variable of the participants.

Results:
Twenty-minute practice of JPMR improved psychological states such as (i) happiness (p < 0.05), (ii) emotional stability (p < 0.05), and (iii) positivity (p < 0.01). In addition, both attention and anger levels were reduced after 20 min of listening to Om Chanting (p < 0.01, respectively). In addition, QS reduced the attention level of the participants (p < 0.01).

Conclusion:
Findings of the present study suggest that the 20 min of practice of progressive muscle relaxation techniques as a psychological relaxation technique improves psychological states such as the levels of happiness, emotional stability, and positivity whereas 20 min of listening to Om Chanting showed a reduction in the scores of anger and attention.
On a degenerate elliptic problem arising in the least action principle for Rayleigh–Taylor subsolutions
Authors: Gebhard Björn , Hirsch Jonas , Kolumbán József J. 
Published: June 2024

We address a degenerate elliptic variational problem arising in the application of the least action principle to averaged solutions of the inhomogeneous Euler equations in the Boussinesq approximation emanating from the horizontally flat Rayleigh–Taylor configuration. We give a detailed derivation of the functional starting from the differential inclusion associated with the Euler equations, i.e. the notion of an averaged solution is that of a subsolution in the context of convex integration, and illustrate how it is linked to the generalized least action principle introduced by Brenier [J. Amer. Math. Soc. 2 (1989), 225–255; in: New trends and results in mathematical description of fluid flows (2018), 53–75]. Concerning the investigation of the functional itself, we use a regular approximation in order to show the existence of a minimizer enjoying partial regularity, as well as other properties important for the construction of actual Euler solutions induced by the minimizer. Furthermore, we discuss to what extent such an application of the least action principle to subsolutions can serve as a selection criterion.
