ABSTRACT

Background:
Psychodermatology is an interdisciplinary field that bridges psychiatry and dermatology, addressing the psychosocial and psychiatric aspects of skin diseases. Managing such cases presents a challenge for both dermatologists and psychiatrists as patients often resist psychiatric consultations, complicating diagnosis and treatment.

Aim:
This study aimed to assess the level of knowledge and awareness of psychodermatology among dermatologists in Ibero-Latin America, explore their experiences with psychodermatological conditions, and identify the educational needs and challenges in this interdisciplinary field.

Materials and Methods:
An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted through an online survey from December 2023 to March 2024. The survey was distributed through messaging apps and emails and targeted a sample of dermatologists from Ibero-Latin America to explore their experience, training, and perceived challenges in psychodermatology. The participants were selected through non-probabilistic sampling from the staffing records of the Ibero-Latin American College of Dermatology.

Results:
Of 301 dermatologists, the vast majority (99%) reported a good level of knowledge in the field of psychodermatology; however, only 36.5% had substantial clinical experience with these conditions. Approximately 70.1% did not prescribe psychotropic medications, reflecting hesitancy or lack of confidence in managing the psychiatric issues of dermatological conditions. The study also highlighted a strong preference (86.7%) for a multidisciplinary approach for managing psychodermatological disorders. Significant perceived challenges included limited access to professional training and patients’ reluctance to accept psychological contributions to their dermatological conditions.

Conclusion:
The level of knowledge in psychodermatology is widespread among Ibero-Latin American dermatologists, even though a significant gap in practical experience and confidence in integrating psychological management into their dermatological practice was found. These findings emphasize the need for enhanced professional training programs and an interdisciplinary approach to effectively address psychodermatological conditions.

ABSTRACT

Background:
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that affects children worldwide. This study focuses on understanding the prevalence of ADHD in elementary school classrooms in India and examines how having a child with ADHD impacts the quality of life of their parents.

Aim:
To determine the prevalence of ADHD in Indian elementary classrooms and assess the quality of life of parents.

Materials and Methods:
The study, conducted during the 2022–2023 academic year, involved 300 primary school children aged 6–12 years from government and private schools in Jaipur, with 150 students from each type of institution. Ethical approval was obtained from the Ethical Committee, and consent was secured from both teachers and parents. The process adhered to strict inclusion and exclusion criteria to ensure the study’s rigor and validity. Data collection involved interviews with children from classes 1 through 6, selected using the fishbowl method from a list of nearby schools that responded to the researchers’ outreach. The study identified children with ADHD using the Vanderbilt assessment scale and assessed parents’ quality of life through the WHOQOL-BREF.

Results:
The prevalence of ADHD in Indian elementary classrooms was 5.67%. Additionally, parents of children with ADHD scored significantly lower across all domains of the WHOQOL assessment, suggesting that having a child with ADHD profoundly affects the parents’ physical health, psychological well-being, social relationships, and overall environment.

Conclusion:
The study underscores the urgent need for comprehensive support systems for families dealing with ADHD. Given the significant impact on parents’ quality of life, it is crucial to provide resources and interventions that can help these families manage the challenges associated with ADHD.

Published: February 2025

Background:
In pregnant patients, lumbar flexion is difficult due to lumbar hyperlordosis, the intervertebral spaces are narrow and can make the median approach for spinal puncture more difficult. Various sitting positions are used to optimize lumbar flexion, resulting in easier access to spinal anesthesia (SA) in lower-section cesarean section (LSCS). Different variants of sitting position are parallel leg sitting position (PLSP), crossed leg sitting position (CLSP), and traditional sitting position (TSP). A literature search has compared CLSP with TSP and PLSP with TSP. We decided to compare three positions in patients undergoing LSCS with the primary aim of comparing successful first attempts of spinal needle placement.

Methods:
Seventy-five patients belonging to ASA grades II–III, aged 20–40 years undergoing LSCS under SA were randomly allocated in three groups 25 in each: CLSP, PLSP, and TSP. Successful spinal needle placement, needle bone contact, ease of landmark palpation, patient’s comfort, and duration in all groups were assessed and analyzed.

Result:
The successful first attempt of spinal needle placement, needle bone contact, ease of landmark palpation, and patient’s comfort were 96%, 84%, 92%, and 92% for CLSP; 68%, 52%, 64%, and 72% for PLSP; and 84%, 80%, 84%, and 88% for TSP, respectively, which was statistically significant. The mean duration for spinal puncture was 9.62 ± 3.09, 12.14 ± 5.07, 13.56 ± 6.77 s in CLSP, TSP, and PLSP, respectively, which was statistically significant.

Conclusion:
CLSP had significantly higher success rate for spinal puncture with first attempt, easy landmark palpation more comfortable for parturient, and less time consuming compared to PLSP and TSP.

Published: February 2025

Background:
Liver transplant recipients are at greater risk of both maternal and fetal complications than healthy parturients.

Methods:
In this retrospective study, we looked at the case files of liver transplant recipients who came for safe confinement from 2011 to 2021. Patients’ demography, transplant details, immunosuppressive regimen, pregnancy information, maternal complication, graft function, and fetal outcomes were examined.

Results:
A total of 12 liver recipients were delivered in this institute during this time interval. All patients had live-related liver transplants; the mean transplantation delivery interval was 4.8 years. They were all on immunosuppressant medications. Of the patients, 75% had elective cesarean delivery, which was performed under subarachnoid block. In addition, 66.7% (two-thirds) of patients who delivered vaginally had epidural analgesia. There were no severe intraoperative or postoperative maternal anesthetic complications. None of the patients had graft rejection or significant deterioration in liver function tests. Three babies (25%) were delivered preterm. One of the fetuses was stillborn. All others had an Apgar score of 9 at 5 min and did not require any intensive care unit stay.

Conclusion:
Pregnancy in liver transplant recipients should undergo safe confinement in a tertiary care center under the care of a multidisciplinary team including a hepatologist, transplant surgeon, obstetrician, neonatologist, and obstetric anesthesiologist. Despite the apprehension, planned pregnancies in these parturients have a good obstetric and neonatal outcome. These patients can safely undergo a lower segment cesarean section under regional anesthesia or receive labor epidural analgesia for a vaginal delivery with minimal risk of complications.

Published: February 2025

Objective: This study explores the application of sustainable development principles in the landscape regeneration design of mining wastelands in Xuzhou, aiming to analyze their ecological value and development significance, while evaluating innovative designs to provide important references for regional ecological governance and urban renewal.

Theoretical Framework: This study uses the abandoned quarry at Anran Mountain in Xuzhou as a case study, applying the frameworks of sustainable development theory, ecological restoration theory, and low-impact landscape development theory. By integrating these three theories, the aim is to propose a landscape regeneration design model for mining wastelands with ecological, social, and cultural value, promoting sustainable regional development.

Methodology: The study employs a mixed-method approach, with a focus on qualitative analysis. Through surveys, expert interviews, data collection, field research, and case studies, the research comprehensively assesses the development history of mining wastelands in China, sustainable development principles, and site development strategies.

Results and Discussion: The results show that the landscape development of mining wastelands has gone through three stages: "environmental restoration—reuse—diversified development," reflecting a shift from single ecological governance to broader social and cultural objectives. The application of sustainable development principles, particularly low-impact development, the use of natural materials, and the recycling of waste, highlights the importance of designing according to site characteristics, minimizing external interference, and fostering synergy between ecological protection and economic benefits. The study proposes strategies for plant community restoration, water resource utilization, and the redesign of waste materials, considering the site's specific conditions and incorporating both ecological functionality and local characteristics in the design. Additionally, the incorporation of wetland landscape design and ecological education functions not only restores the ecological environment but also provides recreational and educational spaces, enhancing public environmental awareness.

Research Implications: This study proposes a sustainable development path for the regeneration of mining wastelands, integrating ecology, functionality, and aesthetics. It recommends low-impact development strategies, utilizing local materials and native plants to promote ecological restoration and natural aesthetics. Transforming mining wastelands into sustainable parks enhances urban ecosystem services and aligns with the goals of green city development.

Abstract. In situ measurements of particulate inherent optical properties (IOPs) – absorption (ap(λ)), scattering (bp(λ)), and beam attenuation (cp(λ)) – are crucial for the development of optical algorithms that retrieve biogeochemical quantities such as chlorophyll a, particulate organic carbon (POC), and total suspended matter (TSM). Here we present a compilation of particulate absorption–attenuation spectrophotometric data measured underway on nine Atlantic Meridional Transect (AMT) cruises between 50° N and 50° S from 2009–2019. The compilation includes coincident high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) phytoplankton pigment concentrations, which are used to calibrate transects of total chlorophyll a (Tot_Chl_a) concentrations derived from the ap(λ) line-height method. The IOP data are processed using a consistent methodology and include propagated uncertainties for each IOP variable, uncertainty quantification for the Tot_Chl_a concentrations based on HPLC match-ups, application of consistent quality-control filters, and standardization of output data fields and formats. The total IOP dataset consists of ∼310 000 measurements at a 1 min binning (∼270 000 hyper-spectral) and >700 coincident HPLC pigment surface samples (∼600 of which are coincident with hyper-spectral IOPs). We present the geographic variation in the IOPs, HPLC phytoplankton pigments, and ap-derived Tot_Chl_a concentrations which are shown to have uncertainties between 8 % and 20 %. Additionally, to stimulate further investigation of accessory pigment extraction from ap(λ), we quantify pigment correlation matrices and identify spectral characteristics of end-member ap(λ) spectra, where accessory pigment groupings are present in higher concentrations relative to Tot_Chl_a. All data are made publicly available in SeaBASS and NetCDF formats via the following links: https://seabass.gsfc.nasa.gov/archive/PML/AMT (Jordan et al., 2025a) and https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.12527954 (Jordan et al., 2024).

В статье рассматриваются проблемы, влияющие на недостаточную эффективность уголовно- правового противодействия разглашению данных предварительного расследования. В частности, отмечается, что недостатки конструирования нормы, предусмотренной ст. 310 УК РФ, приводят к проблемам при её приме- нении, в результате которых остаются безнаказанными ряд посягательств на интересы правосудия, а также на законные права и интересы граждан, в том числе в сфере обеспечения их безопасности и неприкосновенности частной жизни. Обращается внимание на несогласованность норм уголовного и уголовно-процессуального за- конодательства. Предлагаются пути решения данной проблемы.
The article examines the problems that affect the insufficient effectiveness of criminal law counteraction to the disclosure of preliminary investigation data. In particular, it is noted that the shortcomings in the construction of the norm provided for in Article 310 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation lead to problems in the application of this norm, as a result of which a number of infringements on the interests of justice, as well as on the legal rights and interests of citizens, including in the area of ensuring their safety and privacy, remain unpunished. Attention is drawn to the inconsistency of the norms of criminal and criminal procedural legislation. Ways to solve this problem are proposed.
