Preganglionic Injury of C8 Nerve Root Secondary to Shoulder Disloca
tion: Diagnosis based on MRI Findings
Authors: Veloza María José , Useche Juan Nicolás , Muñoz Sonia Bermúdez , Vásquez Ricardo , Cardona Ortegón José David 
Published: February 2023

Introduction:
Traumatic spinal root injury caused by shoulder dislocation may involve the
brachial plexus or, in some cases, a single nerve. The degree of severity of the injury depends on many
patient-specific factors as well as the mechanism of injury. It is essential to suspect this type of lesion
by means of a thorough physical examination in order to have better patient outcomes.

Case Presentation:
We presented the subtle magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in a 35-yearold
male with left shoulder trauma and dislocation after falling off a bicycle. He complained of decreased
muscle strength and sensitivity in the C8 dermatome. Atrophy of the hypothenar region and
flexion deformity of the 4th and 5th digits were noted. Magnetic resonance imaging findings were consistent
with a partial preganglionic C8 motor root lesion. We found T2 increased signal intensity and
thinning of the intradural segment of the C8 motor nerve root and low signal in the sequence of a multi-
echo gradient recalled echo (GRE).

Conclusion:
MRI is a noninvasive tool that allows a detailed anatomical characterization of the nerves.
In brachial plexus injuries, the use of the GRE sequence is useful to identify the lesions, even if they
are subtle; however, some lesions may go unnoticed. It is important to note that these patients require
an interdisciplinary group to reach a correct diagnosis, which is vital to establish the appropriate treatment
and follow-up.
Boundary singular problems for quasilinear equations involving mixed reaction-diffusion
Authors: Véron L. 
Published: February 2023

We study the existence of solutions to the problem
\[\label{eng_A1}
\begin{array}{rl}
-\Delta u+u^p-M|\nabla u|^q=0 \text{in }\;\Omega,\\
u=\mu \text{on }\;\partial\Omega
\end{array}\]
in a bounded domain \(\Omega\), where \(p1\), \(1q2\), \(M0\), \(\mu\) is a nonnegative Radon measure in \(\partial\Omega\), and the associated problem with a boundary isolated singularity at \(a\in\partial\Omega,\)
\[\label{eng_A2}
\begin{array}{rl}
-\Delta u+u^p-M|\nabla u|^q=0 \text{in }\;\Omega,\\
u=0 \text{on }\;\partial\Omega\setminus\{a\}.
\end{array}\]
The difficulty lies in the opposition between the two nonlinear terms which are not on the same nature. Existence of solutions to[eng_A1] is obtained under a capacitary condition \[\mu(K)\leq
c\min\left\{cap^{\partial\Omega}_{\frac{2}{p},p'},cap^{\partial\Omega}_{\frac{2-q}{q},q'}\right\}\quad\text{for
all compacts }K\subset\partial\Omega.\] Problem[eng_A2] depends on several critical exponents on \(p\) and \(q\) as well as the position of \(q\) with respect to \(\dfrac{2p}{p+1}\).

<h3>Objectives</h3>
<p>Automated algorithms to identify individuals with type 1 diabetes using electronic health records (EHR) are increasingly used in biomedical research. It is not known whether the accuracy of these algorithms differs by self-reported race. We investigated whether polygenic scores improve identification of individuals with type 1 diabetes.</p>
<h3>Research Design and Methods</h3>
<p>We investigated two large hospital-based biobanks (Mass General Brigham [MGB] and Bio<em>Me</em>) and identified individuals with type 1 diabetes using an established automated algorithm. We performed chart reviews to validate the diagnosis of type 1 diabetes. We implemented two published polygenic scores for type 1 diabetes (developed in individuals of European or African ancestry). We assessed the classification algorithm before and after incorporating polygenic scores.</p>
<h3>Results</h3>
<p>The automated algorithm was more likely to incorrectly assign a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes for self-reported non-White individuals compared to self-reported White individuals (odds ratio = 3.45 [95% confidence interval 1.54-7.69], <em>P</em>=0.0026). After incorporating polygenic scores in MGB Biobank, the positive predictive value of the type 1 diabetes algorithm increased from 70% to 97% for self-reported White individuals (meaning that 97% of those predicted to have type 1 diabetes indeed had type 1 diabetes), and from 53% to 100% for self-reported non-White individuals. Similar results were found in Bio<em>Me</em>.</p>
<h3>Conclusions</h3>
<p>Automated phenotyping algorithms may exacerbate health disparities due to an increased risk of misclassification of individuals from underrepresented populations. Polygenic scores may be used to improve the performance of phenotyping algorithms and potentially reduce this disparity. </p>
Synchronous Fabrication of Custom One-piece Glass Fiber Post-and-core and Zirconia Crown by a Fully Digital Workflow
Authors: Guo X , Chen Z , Gao M , Ma X 
Published: February 2023

SUMMARYCombined crown and post-and-core treatment often requires multiple intermittent appointments and takes a long time. This article describes a novel method for simultaneously fabricating a custom glass fiber post-and-core and the corresponding crown. The critical step, defined as a post-and-core virtual try-in, is to construct a virtual crown abutment that mimics the profile of a real one gained after post-cementation and tooth preparation. The fully digital workflow optimizes the treatment and saves time by accomplishing restorations on the first visit.

In addition to high mortality, craniocerebral injuries have another danger, a long rehabilitation period and a high percentage of disability with the development of cognitive impairment. This is primarily associated with the processes of neuroinflammation, which development, according to recent data, leads to a long-term impairment of consciousness. The anti-inflammatory effects of xenon inhalation anesthetic, which have been repeatedly shown in previous studies, have the potential to beneficially affect the level of consciousness in these patients by targeting key links of neuroinflammation.AIM OF STUDY To evaluate the effect of oxygen-xenon mixture inhalation on the level of consciousness recovery and the severity of spastic activity in patients after traumatic brain injury.MATERIAL AND METHODS A prospective randomized clinical trial of the effect of inhaled xenon sedation on the level of consciousness and spastic activity in patients with post-coma long-term impairment of consciousness was conducted. Patients were randomized into two equal groups. In group I (comparisons, n=15) (in addition to the standard treatment after a traumatic brain injury), each patient included in the study underwent 7 sessions of inhalation of an air-oxygen mixture with an oxygen content of at least 30 vol% for 30 minutes. In group II (study, n=15) (in addition to standard treatment), each patient included in the study inhaled an oxygen-xenon gas mixture (xenon content 30 vol%) for 7 days 1 time per day. Before and after the course of treatment (on the 7th day), patients were assessed using the CRS-R scale and the modified Ashworth scale.RESULTS The final evaluation included 12 patients from the comparison group and 12 patients from the study group. Three patients were excluded from each group as a result of critical incidents not related to the type of the therapy. In the comparison group on the 7th day, the level of consciousness was score 9 [7; 11] and did not differ statistically significantly from the baseline (p>0.05), which was score 8 [6; 10]. Spastic activity also did not change statistically significantly. In group II, the initial level of consciousness was 9 [7; 10], and on the 7th day — score 15 [12; 17], which was statistically significantly higher both in relation to the level of consciousness by the 1st day (p=0.021) within the group, and in relation to it on the 7th day in group I (p=0.038). When comparing spastic activity on the 1st and 7th days, we did not obtain a statistically significant difference in any of the groups.CONCLUSION Our method of xenon inhalation made it possible to have a beneficial effect on the level of consciousness of patients after traumatic brain injury, but this did not affect the final level of spastic activity in any way.

Published: February 2023

Standardization is one of the most important tools for ensuring the quality of medical care. The paper presents analysis results of a number of existing federal and regional standards that regulate the processes of providing medical care, which confirm the need and expediency of developing internal standards for diagnostic and treatment processes (DTP) in a medical institution. The authors also formulate requirements for their minimum content. The importance of the effective implementation of the developed internal DTP standards necessitates the development of a methodological approach to standard execution support and analysis.The approach presented in the article is methodically based on the use of modified operogrammes, which allow taking into account the DTP specifics and resource equipment of a particular medical institution. The authors propose key areas for standard execution support and possible forms of implementation in information systems, as well as basic directions for standard execution analysis with integral indicators for assessment of those standards.Approbation of the developed methodological approach was carried out on the example of the N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute for Emergency Medicine in terms of DTP standard execution support and analysis in relation to ordering laboratory, instrumental tests and consultations at various stages of the patient treatment process. The results of the approbation confirmed that the introduction of the methodological approach increases the effectiveness of the implementation of the developed DTP standards in the activities of a medical institution, and also ensures the achievement of a number of important systemic management effects.

Authors: Layla Mardliyah  
Published: February 2023

This article attempts to describe early childhood learning in developing language competence. Especially the Javanese language and its culture as a form of resilience to local cultural identity that is introduced early on. The use of the Banyumasan Javanese language is currently experiencing a crisis, especially in the younger generation, the majority of whom are more fluent in Indonesian than the local Javanese language in Banyumasan. For that, it needs the cooperation of all parties in civilizing and resilience, especially in Banyumasan Javanese language. This study uses a qualitative approach, the data obtained through observation, interviews, focus group discussions on early childhood education teachers. The data is processed using the theory of Miles and Huberman through the process of reduction, data display and conclusion drawing/verification. the validity of the data through triangulation techniques as a process of strengthening and clarification. The finding of the study can be described as follows: learning activities to introduce Javanese language to early childhood are carried out once a week through play activities, such as children being asked to count numbers from 1 to 10 using Javanese language, in addition, the singing method in Javanese is used as a way to children accustomed to hearing and reciting Javanese dialects. Activities to introduce the Javanese language are integrated into learning themes such as the theme of love for motherland which introduces children to the culture and dialect of the Banyumasan language.
