Authors: Lee Jae-Koo , Kim Do-Hyoung , Hyun Seung-Jae , Yang Seung Heon , Kim Ki-Jeong 
Published: November 2023

OBJECTIVE
Lumbar degenerative kyphosis (LDK), a flexible deformity, is a common form of sagittal imbalance in Asian countries. Assessing a patient’s spine prior to surgery by using positional radiographs is becoming more crucial in determining surgical planning to achieve favorable clinical and radiographic outcomes, especially in patients with flexible deformities. This study aims to identify radiographic characteristics of supine pelvic tilt (sPT) and its relation to mechanical failure (MF) following LDK correction.

METHODS
A single-center, single-surgeon retrospective analysis was performed in patients who underwent LDK correction with sacropelvic fixation between January 2014 and May 2019. Patients were grouped into pelvic match and mismatch groups according to the difference between postoperative pelvic tilt (PT) and sPT. Demographic, surgical, and radiographic parameters were compared. Chronological change of PT was assessed by comparing preoperative, supine, immediate postoperative, and final PT.

RESULTS
Baseline demographics and sagittal alignments were similar between PT match (n = 25) and mismatch (n = 42) groups (p > 0.05). There was a significant difference in the rate of MF between PT match and mismatch groups (4% vs 31%, p = 0.021). Multivariable analysis demonstrated that after including control variables, PT mismatch was independently associated with the likelihood of MF development (OR 33.42, p = 0.04).

CONCLUSIONS
sPT reflects postoperative PT changes; therefore, supine imaging may represent a tool that could be used for preoperative decision-making in patients with LDK or possibly those with flexible adult spinal deformity. PT mismatch > 10° or < 0° is a significant risk factor for MF following correction of LDK. Measurement of sPT would aid surgeons in optimal preoperative planning and in minimizing catastrophic MF following deformity correction surgery.

Published: November 2023

BackgroundPerson-specific computational models can estimate transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) current dose delivered to the brain and predict treatment response. Artificially created electrode models derived from virtual 10–20 EEG measurements are typically included in these models as current injection and removal sites. The present study directly compares current flow models generated via artificially placed electrodes (“artificial” electrode models) against those generated using real electrodes acquired from structural MRI scans (“real” electrode models) of older adults.MethodsA total of 16 individualized head models were derived from cognitively healthy older adults (mean age = 71.8 years) who participated in an in-scanner tDCS study with an F3-F4 montage. Visible tDCS electrodes captured within the MRI scans were segmented to create the “real” electrode model. In contrast, the “artificial” electrodes were generated in ROAST. Percentage differences in current density were computed in selected regions of interest (ROIs) as examples of stimulation targets within an F3-F4 montage.Main resultsWe found significant inverse correlations (p &lt; 0.001) between median current density values and brain atrophy in both electrode pipelines with slightly larger correlations found in the artificial pipeline. The percent difference (PD) of the electrode distances between the two models predicted the median current density values computed in the ROIs, gray, and white matter, with significant correlation between electrode distance PDs and current density. The correlation between PD of the contact areas and the computed median current densities in the brain was found to be non-significant.ConclusionsThis study demonstrates potential discrepancies in generated current density models using real versus artificial electrode placement when applying tDCS to an older adult cohort. Our findings strongly suggest that future tDCS clinical work should consider closely monitoring and rigorously documenting electrode location during stimulation to model tDCS montages as closely as possible to actual placement. Detailed physical electrode location data may provide more precise information and thus produce more robust tDCS modeling results.
Comparison of the effects of fentanyls and other μ opioid receptor agonists on the electrical activity of respiratory muscles in the rat
Authors: Cavallo Damiana , Kelly Eamonn , Henderson Graeme , Abdala Sheikh Ana Paula 
Published: November 2023

Introduction: Deaths due to overdose of fentanyls result primarily from depression of respiration. These potent opioids can also produce muscle rigidity in the diaphragm and the chest muscles, a phenomenon known as Wooden Chest Syndrome, which further limits ventilation.Methods: We have compared the depression of ventilation by fentanyl and morphine by directly measuring their ability to induce muscle rigidity using EMG recording from diaphragm and external and internal intercostal muscles, in the rat working heart-brainstem preparation.Results: At equipotent bradypnea-inducing concentrations fentanyl produced a greater increase in expiratory EMG amplitude than morphine in all three muscles examined. In order to understand whether this effect of fentanyl was a unique property of the phenylpiperidine chemical structure, or due to fentanyl’s high agonist intrinsic efficacy or its lipophilicity, we compared a variety of agonists with different properties at concentrations that were equipotent at producing bradypnea. We compared carfentanil and alfentanil (phenylpiperidines with relatively high efficacy and high to medium lipophilicity, respectively), norbuprenorphine (orvinolmorphinan with high efficacy and lipophilicity) and levorphanol (morphinan with relatively low efficacy and high lipophilicity).Discussion: We observed that, agonists with higher intrinsic efficacy were more likely to increase expiratory EMG amplitude (i.e., produce chest rigidity) than agonists with lower efficacy. Whereas lipophilicity and chemical structure did not appear to correlate with the ability to induce chest rigidity.

Published: November 2023

Freedom to learn is an idea that liberates teachers and students in determine the learning system. The purpose of independent learning is to create education which is fun for students and teachers because so far education in Indonesia is more emphasizes the knowledge aspect rather than the skill aspect. Free to learn too emphasizing aspects of character development in accordance with the values of Indonesia. Ki Hadjar Dewantara views education as a driver for the development of students, namely, education teaches to achieve change and benefit for students' surrounding environment. Freedom to learn is a form of implementation of values shaping the nation's character, which begins with improving the education system and methods of study. It is hoped that independent learning can provide changes for the better and provide benefits to the environment.

ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui urgensi asesmen berbasis HOTS bagi mahasiswa PPG sebagai suplemen belajar mandiri. Adapun metode penelitian ini ialah kuantitatif dengan pengumpulan data menggunakanangket tertutup untuk mahasiswa dan angket terbuka untuk dosen pengampuh. Teknik sampling jenuh yang digunakan sehingga semua mahasiswa diambil yaitu sebanyak 22 mahasiswa. Analisis data deskriptif dengan menggunanakan hasil persentase. Hasil penelitian diperoleh bahwa dosen sudah mengupayakan pembelajaran dengan menyajikan aktivitas berpikir tingkat tinggi, akan tetapi masih belum membuat secara mandiri suplemen belajar seperti soal HOTS yang disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan mata kuliah. Karena itulah untuk menunjang keberhasilan mata kuliah maka dosen harus pula membuat asesmen berbasis HOTS sebagai suplemen belajar mandiri bagi mahasiswa PPG agar kemampuan berpikir HOTS mereka dapat lebih terlatih. ABSTRACTThis research aims to determine the urgency of HOTS-based assessment for PPG students as a supplement to independent learning. This research method is quantitative with data collection using closed questionnaires for students and open questionnaires for lecturers. Saturated sampling technique was used so that all students were taken, namely 22 students. Descriptive data analysis using percentage results. The research results show that lecturers have made efforts to learn by presenting high-level thinking activities, but have not yet independently created learning supplements such as HOTS questions that are tailored to course needs. For this reason, to support the success of the course, lecturers must also create HOTS-based assessments as an independent learning supplement for PPG students so that their HOTS thinking skills can be better trained.
