Published: October 2023

As mudanças na linguagem com o objetivo de tornar a comunicação menos sexista são parte de uma pauta social pela igualdade de gênero. A discussão vem ganhando destaque nas redes sociais, na comunicação informal e formal, inclusive em textos oficiais elaborados por instituições governamentais. Este estudo tem como objetivo identificar as ocorrências de expressões de linguagem inclusiva de gênero em documentos elaborados pela Universidade Federal de Sergipe no âmbito dos Conselhos Superiores, entre os anos 2017 e 2022. Foi realizada a análise da expressão variável do gênero dos referentes nominais relativos a pessoas em corpus constituído por projetos pedagógicos de cursos de graduação e por resoluções da UFS. A análise usou linguagem de programação Python com bibliotecas para busca de padrões em texto e geração de um conjunto de dados das ocorrências de referência a entidades. Os resultados mostram que existem poucas ocorrências de expressões que denotam uma linguagem inclusiva de gênero e que estas aumentaram nos últimos anos, período em que mulheres assumiram postos na alta administração da UFS. Estes resultados corroboram que as mudanças sociais – a presença de mulheres em espaços dominados pelos homens – atuam na igualdade de gênero, por exemplo, na tentativa de estabelecer uma comunicação mais inclusiva.

Learn: A Multi-site Cross-sectional Survey in India
Authors: Baby Priya , Ravi Ramya Kundayi 
Published: October 2023

Background::
With the digitalization of health care, nurses are required to possess adequate eHealth competence.

Aim::
This study aimed to explore the perceived confidence in eHealth concepts and willingness for training among nursing students.

Materials and Methods::
A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 572 undergraduate nursing students recruited by convenient sampling technique from two selected
nursing colleges in Southern and Northern India. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data. The data was analysed using SPSS. A p-value
of less than 0.05 was taken as statistically significant.

Results::
A total of 572 students completed the survey. The age of the participants ranged from 18 to 28 years, with a mean of 20.7 (SD 2.0) years. Most of
the students (92.5%) used smartphones as their source of internet. More than half (66.1%) of the students were confident in various eHealth
concepts. Those who were not confident in a particular eHealth concept were more willing to learn the same concept than those who were
confident.

Conclusion::
The study recommends preparing future nurses having knowledge of various eHealth concepts using curricular and co-curricular activities to
increase their confidence and enable them to work effectively in the era of digital transformation of health care.

Review of the Literature
Authors: Öğreden Ercan , Oguz Ural , Demirelli Erhan , Sabri Tok Doğan , Akyol Safa , Öksüz Hülya , Aslan Serdar 
Published: October 2023

Background::
The definition of oligometastasis is still controversial. Cytoreductive nephrectomy and metastasectomy are important approaches in selected
patients with oligometastasis for improving survival. We aimed to present our laparoscopic metastasectomy experience in a rare case of
contralateral adrenal metastasis in an oligometastatic kidney tumor.

Case Report::
A 52-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic with the diagnosis of an incidental right renal mass. On contrast-enhanced abdominal CT
revealed a mass reaching approximately 8 cm in diameter in the right kidney located in the middle pole. On contrast-enhanced thorax, CT showed
a metastatic lesion in the left main bronchus bifurcation. The patient underwent an open radical nephrectomy with the diagnosis of an
oligometastatic right renal mass. His pathology was reported as clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The patient was referred to the medical
oncology clinic for immunotherapy. The metastatic lesion in the lung completely regressed in the follow-up of the patient who was started on Chek
point inhibitors. However, he was referred to our clinic after an incidental metachronous mass was detected in the contralateral left adrenal in FDG
PET/CT (SUVmax: 6.7) in 1st year. Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI was performed to reevaluate and for mass characterization, and a 4 cm mass
was observed in the left contralateral adrenal. Laparoscopic metastasectomy was performed for the left adrenal mass. No recurrence or adrenal
insufficiency developed in the 6-month follow-up after discharge.

Conclusion::
Transperitoneal adrenalectomy is a minimally invasive method that can be safely performed in metastatic adrenal masses. Although contralateral
adrenal metastasis is rare in ccRCC, it should be kept in mind that adrenal metastasis may develop in the late period in patients with a history of
renal cancer.
Dental Tissue Engineering by Neural Differentiation of Dental Stem Cells and Nano-systems: A Review
Authors: Abdolahinia Elaheh Dalir , Khatibi Seyed Mahdi Hosseiniyan , Sharifi Simin , Dizaj Solmaz Maleki 
Published: October 2023

Background:
Pulpitis is a pulpal inflammation. It generally occurs when there is inflammation within a tooth as a result of anything like grinding or decay. After dental inflammation, microcirculation and sensory nerve activity seem to play the most critical role in reducing inflammation. Therefore, researchers emphasize the study of dental nerve activity, especially in acute clinical problems in inflamed teeth and pulp regeneration. This review aims to investigate the possibility of using dental stem cells to regenerate dental nerves in order to repair dentin-pulp complexes for maintaining and restoring tooth structure and function, which nanosystems can help in this matter.

Materials and Methods:
In this paper, we review the literature regarding the theory of dental tissue engineering by neural differentiation of dental stem cells and nano-systems, and the comprehensive search on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science was conducted up to July 2022.

Results:
According to recent studies, dental soft and hard tissue healing also includes nerve fibers. A deeper understanding of how dental nerves are implicated in pulpitis may assist endodontic treatment. Stem cell-based treatments may be used to regenerate dental nerves to repair dentin-pulp complexes to maintain and restore tooth structure and function.

Conclusion:
The emphasis on dental nerve regeneration appears to be a critical stage in fostering spontaneous tooth regeneration as well as a sustainable tooth regeneration method. It is essential to further investigate dental tissue engineering by neural differentiation of dental stem cells.
Evaluation of Antibiotics Used in COVID-19 Patients in West of Iran: A Descriptive Study
Authors: Mahmoudi Hassan 
Published: October 2023

Introduction:
In coronavirus disease (COVID-19), antibiotics are frequently prescribed to treat bacterial co-infections. Moreover, antibiotics are one of the pre-eminent essential drugs utilized in treatment. However, due to their high cost and association with resistance, their consumption pattern is important to be considered. In this regard, the first step is to optimize the use of these drugs.

Objective:
Regarding limited data on assessing the pandemic effect on antibiotics used in Iran, this study aimed to describe the evaluation of antibiotics used in COVID-19 patients during the COVID-19 pandemic in West Iran.

Materials and Methods:
A total of 350 COVID-19 patients were enrolled in hospitals, and their characteristics, such as age, sex, ward, beginning and conclusion dates, organization intervals, dose, and the type of antibiotic utilized, were assessed. It was found that 180 COVID-19 patients received systemic antibiotics. Antibiotic administration was analyzed based on a Defined Daily Dose (DDD) /100-bed days (expended per 100-bed occupied days).

Results:
A total of 180 (51.43%) of the COVID-19 patients received antimicrobials, comparable to 219.62 DDD/100-bed days. Moreover, 85% of the antimicrobials were infused, and 15% were oral. Among the wards, the highest rate was in the infectious and intensive care unit (ICU) wards and the lowest in the obstetrics and gynecology wards.

Conclusion:
The use of antibiotics in patients with COVID-19 was assessed as very high, which should be reviewed in terms of the association between misuse of antibiotics and the emergence of resistance.
A Review on recent approaches for the use of different Analytical Techniques to
Analyze some Calcium Channel Blockers and their Combinations with other
Antihypertensive Drugs
Authors: Ganorkar Saylee , Kulkarni Nilesh , Khiste Rahul 
Published: October 2023

Background::
Diabetes, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure all considerably raise the risk of cardiovascular disease. When all three of these characteristics
occur at once, a metabolic problem is postulated. A combination of antihypertensive, hypolipidemic, and anti-diabetic medications is frequently
utilised to treat cardiovascular diseases. While statins (fluvastatin, simvastatin, etc.) are used to lower cholesterol levels, calcium channel blockers
(e.g. amlodipine, efonidipine, and azelnidipine, etc.) are used to target the smooth muscles of the heart. Diuretics (e.g. chlortalidone,
hydrochlorothiazide, etc.) and angiotensin II receptor antagonist (blockers) are also used to manage high blood pressure.

Objective::
The study aimed to review liquid chromatography and related high-performance (HPLC) techniques that have been developed and used for
evaluating the above drugs, together with an overview of the research work published in various scientific and drugs-linked journals.

Results::
A basic critical investigation of the detailed published information has been completed and the current status of HPLC and related techniques as a
percent measure of calcium channel blockers has been examined.

Conclusion::
This survey has explored several matrices, including pharmacological products and organic samples, as well as methods for examining direct
calcium blockers in them. It also discusses the current state of calcium channel blocker stability investigations. Additionally, it offers scientific
approaches for the concurrent estimate of angiotensin II receptor antagonism, diuretics, statins, and beta-blockers with calcium channel blockers.

The Aloe Vera plant has been used in India for several decades for the
treatment of periodontal disease. The plant has been considered to have antimicrobial and antiinflammatory
properties, but it is still used for the treatment of periodontitis inflammation.

Objective::
The study's goal was to assess the function of Aloe vera in the treatment of periodontitis.
The article summarized numerous clinical research studies, clinical trials reports, patent
reports, and safety data in addition to the mechanism of action to provide an overview of Aloe
Vera’s usefulness in the treatment of periodontitis.

Methods::
The information for their review articles was acquired by using Google Scholar and
PubMed as search engines, as well as a number of publishers, including Springer Nature, Bentham
Science, Taylor & Francis, and Elsevier. ClinicalTrials.gov.in was referred to study the
clinical trials data, and Google Patents was used as a search engine for collecting patent reports.

Results::
Aloe Vera is useful for Periodontitis prevention and treatment due to its antiinflammatory,
antibacterial, and antioxidant features. Aloe Vera can be used as an alternative to
treat periodontitis and its related physiological effects such as gingivitis and mucositis, and various
pre-clinical and clinical studies have been summarized that have demonstrated that using
Aloe Vera significantly improved the mentioned parameters.

Conclusion::
Aloe Vera is an herb that may be used to treat periodontitis and its associated negative
effects. However, more preclinical and clinical research, might contribute to raising awareness
and managing periodontitis.

A random-effects model was used to measure the mean difference (MD) for calculating the cancer caregiver's quality of life. The final report comprised eight trials with a total of 1142 participants. The caregiver intervention programme was found to improve cancer caregivers' quality of life, but not statistically significantly (mean difference=0.10; p<0.00001).

Conclusion:
According to this meta-analysis, The psychological intervention program positively affected cancer caregiver's quality of life. Further randomised controlled trials are required to prove that psychological interventional programs are successful strategies for improving cancer caregiver's quality of life.
A Preliminary Assessment of Cerebral Surface Strain
Authors: Yang Joseph , Sia Sean , Atlas Glen 
Published: October 2023

Background:
Craniotomies are commonly performed neurosurgical procedures. Quantitating cerebral surface strain may facilitate the identification of intracerebral pathology and improve intraoperative management of underperfused brain tissue.

Objective:
The aim of this study was to test the use of digital image correlation software to quantify cerebral surface strain of intraoperative cerebral tissue during craniotomies.

Methods:
Ncorr, an open-source software program, was used to perform digital image correlation analysis from publicly available craniotomy videos. Mann-Whitney U tests were then utilized to assess statistical differences between craniotomy datasets.

Results:
Four different craniotomies were retrospectively examined, and the acquired cerebral surface strain data were subsequently extracted and analyzed. Statistically significant cerebral surface strain values were identified when comparing the four craniotomies. Additional prospective research is needed to establish baseline ranges of cerebral surface strain and to further understand the potential utility and limitations of this non-invasive intraoperative monitoring technique.

Conclusion:
This preliminary study successfully demonstrated the use of computer-based image analysis for the non-invasive quantification of cerebral surface strain during neurosurgery.
Analysis of Aggregate Types with Micro-texture and Macro-texture Characteristics of Asphalt Mixture in Indonesia
Authors: Sulandari Eti , Subagio Bambang Sugeng , Rahman Harmein , Maha Indra 
Published: October 2023

Background:
Micro-texture and macro-texture are two essential parameters that functionally evaluate friction on asphalt pavement surface. While micro-texture indicates the irregularity of aggregate using British Pendulum Tester (BPN), macro-texture shows the larger irregularity of asphalt mix surface using Mean Texture Depth (MTD). Both micro-texture and macro-texture contribute to increased skid resistance value, which is needed for road to meet the safety qualification.

Aim:
This study aims to investigate the effect of local aggregate types and aggregate proportion (%) on asphalt mix on pavement textures (micro and macro-texture).

Methods:
Laboratory experiments were conducted on four types of local aggregates (A, B, C, and D), which were carried from West Java, Indonesia, and aggregate has a different characteristic to each other. In addition, three asphalt mix types (SMA-fine, AC-WC, and HRS-WC), each containing varying proportion (%) of aggregates, were investigated to analyze change in texture on asphalt mix surface. Statistical analysis with two-way ANOVA was carried out to investigate the significance of aggregate type and asphalt mix type on pavement surface.

Results:
The results showed that each aggregate exhibited different characteristics chemically and mechanically. Four types of local aggregate possessed distinctive characteristics for the asphalt mix performance (i.e., OAC and density) and pavement textures. Statistically, it was clearly found that both aggregate type and asphalt mix type were strongly related to pavement texture.

Conclusion:
Therefore, the aggregate type and asphalt mix type with varying aggregate proportions (%), such as coarse aggregate (CA), aggregate-fine (FA), and filler (FF), affect the micro-texture and macro-texture.

Authors: Mine Takatomo , Nakano Haruki , Shinohara Michio , Kuriyama Ryutaro , Tominaga Yasuhiro , Ihara Koichiro , Yonehara Takanori 
Published: October 2023

Background:
Damage to a discoid meniscus often indicates a complex tear, the treatment for which has not yet been resolved. This study aimed to assess the clinical efficacy of arthroscopic partial meniscectomy with suture repair for discoid lateral meniscus in patients under 40 years of age.

Methods:
A total number of 10 patients aged < 40 years who underwent partial meniscectomy with meniscal repair for lateral discoid meniscal tears were included in the study. Clinical assessment was evaluated pre-and post-surgery, and magnetic resonance imaging was performed at a mean of 9.5 months after surgery.

Results:
The Lysholm score improved from 43 ± 19.3 to 87.2 ± 7.8 (range: 94 − 100) at the last follow-up after surgery. The International Knee Documentation Committee score improved from 21.8 ±10.4 to 87.7 ± 4.8 at the last follow-up time after surgery. MRI revealed partial healing of the meniscus in six patients and residual damage of the meniscus in four patients. Extrusion was noted in three patients shown in coronal plane images.

Conclusion:
Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy with suture repair for discoid lateral meniscus in 10 patients under 40 years of age led to satisfactory clinical outcomes after a mean period of 11.2 months. However, in three cases, although the symptoms have improved, the remaining meniscus had worn off.

Authors: Lone Ayoob , AlWadani Fahad Abdullah Saeed , Alnaim Abdulrahman 
Published: October 2023

Objective:
The risk factors for vision problems in youngsters are relatively unknown in Saudi Arabia. The purpose of this study was to examine the determinants of refractive errors among school-going children attending the ophthalmic clinic of AlMoosa Hospital in Saudi Arabia.

Methodology:
A sample of 161 school-going children were recruited voluntarily to complete a set of measures examining the determinants of refractive errors. The binary logistic regression model was applied to determine the relationship between independent and dependent variables.

Results:
Refractive errors were common among Saudi school-going children, with myopia being the most common type of refractive error. About 96 (59.6%) samples had myopia, 28 (17.4%) children had hyperopia and 27 (16.8%) children did not have any refractive error. Genetic traits and machine dependence were found to be significant predictors of refractive error.

Conclusion:
The preschool eye test and routine vision investigation should be performed on children to detect refractive errors early.
Insulin resistance and hyperuricemia in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus: clinical and biochemical correlates
Authors: Cherniaieva A.O. 
Published: October 2023

Background. Some patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) have clinical symptoms that are characteristic of the type 2 DM: obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, hyperuricemia (HU), dyslipidemia, or the metabolic syndrome, which has been called double diabetes. It is associated with an increased frequency of chronic micro- and macrovascular complications (nephropathy, arteriosclerosis obliterans and ischemic heart disease). The purpose of the study is quantitative assessment of insulin resistance severity using indirect (non-insulin) methods and determination of its correlation with serum uric acid (UA) levels in patients with type 1 DM. Materials and methods. One hundred and eighty-one patients with type 1 DM were examined, their average age was 42.5 ± 12.1 years. Anthropometric research was conducted. Indirect methods for quantitative assessment of insulin resistance were used. The analysis was conducted using non-parametric and parametric statistical methods. Results. In patients with HU, anthropometric indices were significantly higher than in those with normouricemia, which indicated an abdominal type of fat deposition. In HU, a more pronounced insulin resistance was observed compared to that in normouricemia. It was found that in type 1 DM, the serum UA level positively correlated with body mass index, waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio, triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and negatively with the estimated rate of glucose utilization, sensitivity to insulin and the natural logarithm of the rate of glucose utilization. A group of variables with the greatest contribution to the variation of the serum UA level was selected by stepwise multifactorial regression analysis of models from the studied predicates. Conclusions. It has been shown that patients with type 1 DM and HU have a significantly more severe insulin resistance. There was a correlation between anthropometric and calculated indices, reflecting the severity of insulin resistance, with the serum level of UA. The group of predicates with the greatest contribution to the variance of the serum UA level in patients with type 1 DM was selected.
