Vitamin D as a predictor of negative outcomes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients: An observational study
Authors: Bogomaz Volodymyr , Shatylo Sofiia 
Published: August 2023

Introduction Serum vitamin D deficiency is thought to be associated with worse clinical outcomes in COVID-19 patients. Methods This single-centre observational study evaluated the association between serum vitamin D levels and negative outcomes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients in Ukraine. We included hospitalized patients with COVID-19 confirmed by PCR and serum vitamin D measurement on admission. Patients were divided into two groups based on their serum vitamin D level: with adequate vitamin D (≥ 30 ng/ml) and with low vitamin D (<30 ng/ml). Outcomes such as death and the need for respiratory support were recorded. Results A total of 70 patients were included. The gender; severity of COVID-19; comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus type 2, obesity; type of respiratory support, and the length of hospital stay did not differ in both groups. Patients with low serum vitamin D levels have higher C-reactive protein levels 26.14 mg/L [Q1, Q3: 16.61, 57.79] compared to another group 13.43 mg/L [Q1, Q3: 8.84, 27.58]. Low vitamin D level was associated with an increased risk of respiratory support need OR [Odds ratio] 2.925 [95% CI, 1.0839 to 7.8931]. However, after adjustment for age, gender, and common comorbidities, it did not remain significant. Vitamin D serum levels did not significantly differ in patients who died during hospitalization compared to those who survived. Conclusion The role of vitamin D as a sole predictor of mortality and respiratory support appears to be overestimated. Low vitamin D levels may have a greater impact on COVID-19 outcomes in hospitalized elderly patients with comorbidities.

Morphosyntactic Changes and Sociolinguistic Variation in the Language of Kyōgen
A Corpus-Based Analysis of Toraakirabon (1642)
Authors: Pappalardo Giuseppe 
Published: August 2023

The aim of this paper is to analyse morphosyntactic structures in the language of kyōgen – a traditional form of Japanese comic theatre developed in the fourteenth century – from a sociolinguistic perspective, i.e. by highlighting differences in usage across various categories of characters, using the Corpus of Historical Japanese (CHJ). This paper will focus on the use of the particles ga and no with nominative and attributive functions and on the decline of kakari-musubi with koso in Toraakirabon (1642). The analysis will reveal that linguistic characterization is rendered not only through the lexicon, but also, as in the case of female characters, through a particular use of morphosyntactic structures, which appears less influenced by linguistic innovations.
Charles Tart’s Contributions to Parapsychology
Authors: Radin Dean 
Published: August 2023

In this Festschrift in honor of Charles Tart, I originally intended to focus on how Charley – as his friends call him – influenced the discipline of parapsychology from his entry into the field in the 1960s to the present day. That turned out to be an overly ambitious goal because Charley has made so many influential contributions, and in so many facets of parapsychology, that it is not possible to cover them all without writing a lengthy monograph. So instead, I offer a few words about how Charley influenced my own involvement in the field, then I mention four topics that continue to shape the way I think about and approach the study of psi phenomena, and I finish my tribute with an edited transcript of a delightful chat I had with him in preparation for writing this article.
Using Cognitive Task Analysis to Develop a Protocol for Teaching Ultrasound Pregnancy Diagnosis in the Bitch to Undergraduate Veterinary Students
Authors: McIntyre Shona Louise , Sharp Priya , Turner Sophie , Stubbs Amelia 
Published: August 2023

Pregnancy diagnosis in the bitch is routinely performed using ultrasound and is therefore an important skill for veterinarians to have been exposed to during undergraduate training. Proficiency of this skill is difficult to achieve, due to limited exposure to suitable live patients, and animal welfare considerations limiting repeated performance on the same bitch. Models have been beneficial in allowing undergraduates to perform a range of ultrasound techniques without the use of live animals. Using clinical veterinarians and a model created at the University of Surrey, cognitive task analysis (CTA) was used to construct a list of instructional steps required to perform ultrasound pregnancy diagnosis. Experts were asked to evaluate the existing model then video recorded while demonstrating the skill on the model as if teaching a novice student. Anonymized and muted video footage along with transcribed audio files were used to create a draft teaching protocol. A group consensus for the final teaching protocol was developed following a semi-structured interview. The final teaching protocol had 23 steps to guide a novice to perform this skill, broken down into three stages: setup and preparation, pregnancy identification, and estimation of gestational age. Not all steps were both performed and verbalized by all of the experts, hence the need for a panel discussion to confirm a final teaching protocol. This study demonstrated that CTA is useful in compiling a comprehensive list of steps, for a teaching protocol, including those which may have been missed if demonstrated through a lone subject matter expert.

Published: August 2023

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the role of immature platelet fractions (IPFs) and the degree of thrombocytopenia and their association with the severity of hypertensive disease of pregnancy.Material and Methods: One-hundred-and-ten primigravida females between 20-30 years of age, with a singleton live pregnancy, who attended the ANC clinic at Mahila Chikitsalaya, at over 20 weeks of gestation, with hypertensive disease of pregnancy, from November 2019 to August 2021, were enrolled in the study. Blood samples were obtained from all subjects at a regular ANC visits and at the time of admission in hypertensive disease of pregnancy and samples were analyzed within 4 hours of collection using an automated hematology system. IPFs were quantified using an optical fluorescence method. The levels of thrombocytopenia and immature platelet fractions were statistically analyzed against the severity of the disease.Results: The mean IPF was highest in females with eclampsia (18.12±3.59%), followed by severe preeclampsia (14.81±2.91%), mild preeclampsia (10.55±3.26%) and was smallest in females with gestational hypertension (10.08± 0.91%). This increase in IPF with increasing severity of hypertensive disorder of pregnancy was found to be statistically significant (p-value<0.001). The mean platelet count was lowest in females with eclampsia (1.60±0.41 lac/mm3, followed by severe pre-eclampsia (1.65±0.36 lac/mm3), mild pre-eclampsia (1.90±0.47 lac/mm3) and highest in females with gestational hypertension (2.57±0.25 lac/mm3) (p-value<0.001)Conclusion: Higher IPFs had a negative correlation with lower platelet counts and was significantly correlated s with disease severity. Changes in IPF in HDP may occur before development of thrombocytopenia, thus providing an opportunity to plan preemptive management strategies to reduce fetomaternal morbidity and mortality.

‘Eye-Tracking’ with Words for Alzheimer’s Disease Detection: Time Alignment of Words Enunciation with Image Regions During Image Description Tasks
Authors: Heidarzadeh Neda , Ratté Sylvie 
Published: August 2023

Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that results in cognitive decline, dementia, and eventually death. Diagnosing early signs of AD can help clinicians to improve the quality of life. Objective: We developed a non-invasive approach to help neurologists and clinicians to distinguish probable AD patients and healthy controls (HC). Methods: The patients’ gaze points were followed based on the words they used to describe the Cookie Theft (CT) picture description task. We hypothesized that the timing of words enunciation aligns with the participant’s eye movements. The moments that each word was spoken were then aligned with specific regions of the image. We then applied machine learning algorithms to classify probable AD and HC. We randomly selected 60 participants (30 AD and 30 HC) from the Dementia Bank (Pitt Corpus). Results: Five main classifiers were applied to different features extracted from the recorded audio and participants’ transcripts (AD and HC). Support vector machine and logistic regression had the highest accuracy (up to 80% and 78.33%, respectively) in three different experiments. Conclusions: In conclusion, point-of-gaze can be applied as a non-invasive and less expensive approach compared to other available methods (e.g., eye tracker devices) for early-stage AD diagnosis.

HYPERTROPHY OF THE LOWER CORNEA OF THE NOSE: COMPARISON OF SURGICAL TECHNIQUES BY ASSESSMENT OF POSTOPERATIVE COMPLICATIONS
Authors: Furkulitsa D. 
Published: August 2023

Background. Nasal congestion is one of the most commonly reported symptoms in clinical practice. The second most common cause of nasal congestion is hypertrophy of the lower concha, a pathology of the nose that often requires surgical treatment. The purpose of this study is to determine the most effective surgical method in patients with hypertrophy of the inferior turbinate.
Materials and methods. The study was conducted from November 2019 to January 2023 at the Pediatric Otolaryngology Department of the Emilian Cotaga Republican Children's Clinical Hospital in Chisinau, Republic of Moldova. The study population included 205 patients who underwent surgery and were under observation in the hospital. Radiofrequency ablation was the method used in 73 patients, 68 patients were treated with microdebrider turbinoplasty, and the remaining 64 patients were treated with electrocautery. After surgery, postoperative complications were assessed and quantified.
Results. A total of 205 patients were operated on. The first group (n=73) underwent radiofrequency ablation and had a complication rate of 30.1%. Out of 73 patients, 51 recovered without complications. The remaining 22 had complications, including 16 patients with bleeding and 6 with postnasal drip. The second group (n=68) was treated by the microdebrider method. The complication rate was 26.5%, with 50 patients having no postoperative symptoms and 18 having symptoms. In particular, postnasal drip was more common with this method, as all 18 patients experienced postnasal drip as a complication. The third group (n=64) received electrocautery. Patients in this group had the most complications (n=24), with 16 associated with postnasal drip and eight with infections that were treated promptly with oral antibiotics. The frequency of complications with this method was 37.5%.
Conclusion. In our study, microdebrider turbinoplasty provided the lowest complication rate, followed by radiofrequency ablation and electrocautery. However, all three methods were successful in relieving nasal congestion and treating inferior turbinate hypertrophy. More research is needed, as there is still no consensus on the optimal surgical technique for inferior turbinate hypertrophy.

Published: August 2023

Background. 15q duplication syndrome (Dup15q) is caused by the presence of an extra maternally derived copy of the Prader-Willi/Angelman critical region (PWACR) within chromosome 15q11.2-q13.1. The syndrome is clinically identifiable and characterized by intellectual disability, hypotonia, motor delays, autism spectrum disorder, epilepsy, and behavioral difficulties [1, 12]. The prevalence of Dup15q in the general population is unknown but may be as high as 1:5000 [10]. The syndrome most commonly occurs in one of two forms: an extra isodicentric 15 chromosome or an interstitial duplication [4]. Most reported cases concern de novo mutation.
Aim. To highlight the importance of genetic testing in patients with neurodevelopmental disorders and emphasizes the need for further research to understand the underlying genetic mechanisms of Dup15q depending on the origin of the inherited duplication.
Materials and methods. The study used next-generation sequencing (NGS), multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), and karyotype analysis to confirm the interstitial duplication.
Results. We present the phenotype description and diagnostic prospects of three patients from different families who inherited interstitial 15q duplication from a phenotypically healthy mother. The patients exhibited symptoms consistent with Dup15q, including intellectual disability, delayed speech, difficulty understanding spoken language, hyperactivity, epilepsy and sleep disorders.
Conclusion. The inherited interstitial duplication 15q is phenotypical presented only in case of maternal origin and vary in clinical presentation. We suggest as the first choice MLPA method as most cost and time effective in cases of Dup15q suspicion.
