Background: The paucity of state-supported rehabilitation for chronically ill patients with long-term tracheostomies has ramifications of prolonged hospital-stay, increased burden on acute-care resources, and nosocomial infections. Few interventions describe home rehabilitation of adult tracheostomized patients. Almost none involve stakeholders. This paper describes the All-India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) ICU rehabilitation (AIR) healthcare intervention developed to facilitate home rehabilitation of chronically ill tracheostomized patients. Methods: The AIR intervention was developed in six stages using the experience-based codesign theory (EBCD). A core research-committee studied prevalent knowledge and gaps in the area. Patients-carer and health-care stakeholders’ experiences of barriers and facilitators to home care resulted in an intervention with interlinked components: family-carer training, equipment bank, m-health application, and follow-up, guided by the Medical Research Council (MRC) framework. Healthcare stakeholders (doctors, nurses, medical equipment vendors) and patient-carer dyads were engaged to gather experiences at various stages to form smaller codesign teams for each component. Multiple codesign meetings iteratively allowed refinement of the intervention over one year. The Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) checklist was used to report the AIR intervention. Results: The first component comprised a minimum of three bedside hands-on training sessions for carers relating to tracheostomy suction, catheter care, monitoring oxygenation, enteral feeding, skincare, and physiotherapy, buttressed by pictorial-books and videos embedded in a mobile-application. The second was an equipment-bank involving a rental-retrieval model. The third component was a novel m-health tool for two-way communication with the core group and community of other patient-carers in the project for follow-up and troubleshooting. Home visits on days 7 and 21 post-discharge assessed patient hygiene, nutrition, physiotherapy, and established contact with the nearest primary healthcare facility for the future. Conclusions: Findings support the EBCD-based development using active feedback from stakeholders. Assessment of feasibility, process and effectiveness evaluation will follow.
Przyczynek do studium nad początkami niedzielnego lekcjonarza do celebracji eucharystycznej w Rzymie
Authors: Superson Jarosław 
Published: June 2023

Nauka nie dysponuje źródłami, które wskazywałyby, jakie pisma były czytane podczas niedzielnych zgromadzeń liturgicznych przez pierwszych chrześcijan w Rzymie. W początkowym okresie korzystali oni z Septuaginty. Na przełomie I i II wieku pojawia się praktyka czytań pochodzących z corpus Paulinum. Podczas obecności w Rzymie Marcjona, pochodzącego z Azji Mniejszej, pojawia się praktyka czytania listów Pawłowych i okrojonej wersji Ewangelii według św. Łukasza. Ta praktyka zostaje odrzucona przez chrześcijan. To Justyn Męczennik, pochodzenia syryjskiego, odnotowuje w swojej Apologii I formę proklamowania lektury podczas niedzielnej Eucharystii. Jest wtedy czytana jedna lektura z pism prorockich lub pamiętników apostolskich. Prawdopodobnie to przewodniczący liturgii dokonywał wyboru odczytywanego fragmentu pism.

A Fast Temporal Decomposition Procedure for Long-Horizon Nonlinear Dynamic Programming
Authors: Na Sen , Anitescu Mihai , Kolar Mladen 
Published: June 2023

We propose a fast temporal decomposition procedure for solving long-horizon nonlinear dynamic programs. The core of the procedure is sequential quadratic programming (SQP) that utilizes a differentiable exact augmented Lagrangian as the merit function. Within each SQP iteration, we approximately solve the Newton system using an overlapping temporal decomposition strategy. We show that the approximate search direction is still a descent direction of the augmented Lagrangian provided the overlap size and penalty parameters are suitably chosen, which allows us to establish the global convergence. Moreover, we show that a unit step size is accepted locally for the approximate search direction and further establish a uniform, local linear convergence over stages. This local convergence rate matches the rate of the recent Schwarz scheme (Na et al. 2022). However, the Schwarz scheme has to solve nonlinear subproblems to optimality in each iteration, whereas we only perform a single Newton step instead. Numerical experiments validate our theories and demonstrate the superiority of our method.

Hemisection: a simple and elegant technique
Authors: Glockengießer Jörg , DiBiase Andrew 
Published: June 2023

Agenesis of lower second premolars in an uncrowded dentition can represent a significant clinical challenge. Leaving the second primary molars and ultimate prosthetic replacement places a dental and financial burden on the patient. Therefore, space closure while often the preferred option, can be very difficult while controlling the overbite and position of the lower labial segment. Also loss of alveolar bone may make this impossible. Hemisection of the lower second primary molar can facilitate space closure by maintaining bone and if done at the correct time, allow the first molar to move mesially resulting in spontaneous space closure. This article describes this technique and illustrates it clinically. CPD/Clinical relevance Hypodontia of the lower second premolars is a common problem and space closure to negate the need for expensive prosthodontics can be challenging. Hemisection of the second primary molar is a relatively simple procedure that can make space closure more predictable.

Published: June 2023

BackgroundThe world health organization (WHO) adopted the Surgery, Antibiotic, facial cleanliness, and environmental improvement (SAFE) strategy for the prevention of trachoma, and different prevention strategies have been employed in Andabet district. Trachoma still has a high prevalence despite these efforts. So, it is imperative to assess ground trachoma prevention practice (TPP) since there are insufficient studies in the study area.ObjectiveTo determine the magnitude and factors associated with TPP among mothers having children aged under nine years in Andabet district, Northwest Ethiopia.MethodA community-based cross-sectional study involving 624 participants was conducted June 1–30, 2022. Systematic random sampling was carried out to select study participants. Multi-level binary logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with poor TPP. Descriptive and summary statistics were performed and variables with p-value < 0.05 in the best-fitted model were declared to be significantly associated with poor TPP.ResultsIn this study, the proportion of poor TPP was found to be 50.16% (95%CI = 46.23, 54.08). In the multi-variable multi-level logistic regression; having no formal education (AOR = 2.95; 95%CI: 1.41,6.15) and primary education (AOR = 2.33; 95%CI:1.04, 5.24), being a farmer (AOR = 3.02; 95%CI:1.73,5.28), and merchant (AOR = 2.63; 95%CI:1.20, 5.75), time taken to water point >30 minutes (AOR = 4.60,95CI:1.30,16.26) and didn’t receive health education about trachoma (AOR = 2.36;95CI:1.16,4.79) were significantly associated with poor TPP.ConclusionThe proportion of poor TPP was high relative to other studies. Level of education, occupation, time taken to the water point, and health education were significantly associated with poor TPP. Therefore, taking special attention to these high-risk groups could decrease the poor TPP.

Published: June 2023

Introduction
The rate of cesarean section is on the rise in both developed and developing countries, and Iran is no exception. According to the WHO, physiologic labor is one of the main strategies for reducing cesarean section and improving the health of mothers and newborns. The aim of this qualitative study was to explain the experiences of health providers regarding implementation of the physiologic birth program in Iran.

Methods
This study is a part of a mixed-methods study, in which 22 health providers were interviewed from January 2022 to June 2022. Data analysis was performed using Graneheim and Lundman’s conventional content analysis approach and using MAXQDA10 software.

Results
Two main categories and nine subcategories emerged from the results of this study. The main categories included “the obstacles to the implementation of the physiologic birth program” and “strategies for improving implementation of the program”. The subcategories of the first category included: lack of continuous midwifery care in the healthcare system, lack of free accompanying midwives, lack of integrated healthcare and hospitals in service provision, low quality of childbirth preparation and implementation of physiologic birth classes, and lack of requirements for the implementation of physiologic birth in the maternity ward. The second category included the following subcategories: Supervising the implementation of childbirth preparation classes and physiologic childbirth, support of midwives by insurance companies, holding training courses on physiologic birth, and evaluation of program implementation.

Conclusions
The experiences of the health providers with the physiologic birth program revealed that policymakers should provide the ground for the implementation of this type of labor by removing the obstacles and providing the particular operational strategies needed in Iran. Important measures that can contribute to the implementation of the physiologic labor program in Iran include the following: Setting the stage for physiologic birth in the healthcare system, creating low- and high-risk wards in maternity hospitals, providing professional autonomy for midwifery, training childbirth providers on physiologic birth, monitoring the quality of program implementation, and providing insurance support for midwifery services.

Published: June 2023

Background
There are various methods of respiratory support available to optimize respiratory function in preterm infants. Respiratory scoring tools might provide information on which method to choose and the level and duration of support needed. Before implementing a respiratory scoring tool in our clinical practice, we aimed to test the inter- and intra-rater reliability of the Silverman and Andersen index (SA index) among neonatologists and nurses when applied to preterm infants on respiratory support. We also examined the association between the SA index and the electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi signals).

Methods
This was a multicenter study including three newborn intensive care units in Norway. Four neonatologists and 10 nurses applied the SA index when assessing 80 videos of 44 preterm infants on High Flow Nasal Cannula, Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist. The inter- and intra-rater reliability for the sum scores were measured by the intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC), and Kendall’s W was used to assess the degree of agreement for each item. We quantified the association between the Edi signals and the SA index scores by the Spearman’s correlation coefficient.

Results
We found poor inter-rater reliability with an ICC for absolute agreement of 0.34 (95% CI: 0.20 to 0.53). There was fair agreement measuring each item separately for upper chest movements (Kendall’s W 0.30), and moderate for lower chest movements (0.43) and xiphoid retractions (0.44). Expiratory grunting showed substantial agreement (0.67). The intra-rater reliability was good (ICC for absolute agreement 0.77; 95% CI: 0.68 to 0.84). We found a moderate positive correlation (r = 0.468, p = 0.028) between the maximum inspiratory diaphragm activity (Edi peak) and the mean inspiratory SA index scores.

Conclusion
Our study showed poor inter-rater and good intra-rater reliability of the SA index when nurses and neonatologists assessed videos of preterm infants on various types of respiratory support. Edi peak and SA index had a moderate positive correlation. Formal training might be essential to improve the inter-rater reliability.

Authors: Mischkulnig Mario , Hopp Benjamin , Wadiura Lisa I. , Khalaveh Farjad , Kiesel Barbara , Rössler Karl , Widhalm Georg , Dorfer Christian 
Published: June 2023

Background
Throughout the last years, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic posed a major challenge to the optimal and timely treatment of neurooncological patients around the world. While the importance of prompt surgical treatment in high-grade gliomas is widely accepted, there is sparse data on the impact of the pandemic on patients suffering from this malignant disease.

Methods
We performed a retrospective analysis of patients undergoing surgical high-grade glioma treatment at the Medical University of Vienna between March 2020 and February 2021, as well as a control cohort of patients who received treatment between January and December 2019. Time lag between referral for surgical treatment to actual surgery, preoperative tumor volume and overall patient survival were compared between groups.

Results
A total of 118 patients, including 62 cases treated during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as 56 control patients, were investigated in this study. Median interval to surgery was significantly shorter in patients treated during COVID-19 compared with the control group (4.00 versus 7.00 days; p = 0.0005). In contrast, patients treated during COVID-19 exhibited marginally larger preoperative tumor volumes, while overall patient survival was comparable between groups.

Conclusions
The COVID-19 pandemic did not negatively affect the overall survival of patients undergoing surgical high-grade glioma treatment at our institution. The significantly shorter treatment delay in patients treated during the pandemic likely reflects increased resource allocation for this critical patient population.

Published: June 2023

Background
The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has impacted pregnant women, increasing maternal and neonatal morbidity. The placenta is a potential target for the pathophysiological processes due to the increased thrombotic inflammatory activation and inadequate uteroplacental perfusion and oxygenation, potentially causing intrauterine growth restriction. This study investigates the impact of gestational age at diagnosis of COVID-19 and the presence of symptoms on intrauterine fetal growth in pregnant women.

Methods
A retrospective review of COVID-19 positive pregnant women in Qatar from March 2020 to March 2021 was conducted. They were divided based on trimester of pregnancy in which they were infected. The outcomes included birthweight, customised fetal birthweight centiles, small for gestational age (SGA) baby and daily growth increments, compared between the trimesters and between symptomatic and asymptomatic women.

Results
In our cohort, 218 women (20.5%) were infected in the first trimester, 399 (37.5%) in the second and 446 (42%) in the third. Women in the second trimester were significantly younger and symptomatic. Women infected in the first trimester were least likely to have diabetes. The mean birthweight, risk of SGA (11.5% vs 10% vs 14.6%, p = 0.302), and median customized growth centiles (47.6% vs 45.9% vs 46.1%)were similar between the groups. Symptomatic women had significantly lower mean birthweight (3147 gms vs 3222 gms) and median birthweight centiles (43.9% vs 54.0%)compared to the asymptomatic (p<0.05 for both). In women infected within 20 weeks of gestation, a delay in daily fetal growth increments was noted with symptomatic disease, although not statistically significant.

Conclusion
This study shows that women with symptomatic disease had lower birth centiles and birth weights. This was regardless of the gestational age at which they were infected. Early symptomatic disease seems to have an impact on fetal growth velocity; however, larger studies are needed to corroborate these findings.

Abstract

Objectives
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for more than 80 % of all lung cancers, and its 5-year survival rate can be greatly improved by early diagnosis. However, early diagnosis remains elusive because of the lack of effective biomarkers. In this study, we aimed to develop an effective diagnostic model for NSCLC based on a combination of circulating biomarkers.

Methods
Tissue-deregulated long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in NSCLC were identified in datasets retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO, n=727) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA, n=1,135) databases, and their differential expression was verified in paired local plasma and exosome samples from NSCLC patients. Subsequently, LASSO regression was used to screen for biomarkers in a large clinical population, and a logistic regression model was used to establish a multi-marker diagnostic model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), calibration plots, decision curve analysis (DCA), clinical impact curves, and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were used to evaluate the efficiency of the diagnostic model.

Results
Three lncRNAs-PGM5-AS1, SFTA1P, and CTA-384D8.35 were consistently expressed in online tissue datasets, plasma, and exosomes from local patients. LASSO regression identified nine variables (Plasma CTA-384D8.35, Plasma PGM5-AS1, Exosome CTA-384D8.35, Exosome PGM5-AS1, Exosome SFTA1P, Log10CEA, Log10CA125, SCC, and NSE) in clinical samples that were eventually included in the multi-marker diagnostic model. Logistic regression analysis revealed that Plasma CTA-384D8.35, exosome SFTA1P, Log10CEA, Exosome CTA-384D8.35, SCC, and NSE were independent risk factors for NSCLC (p<0.01), and their results were visualized using a nomogram to obtain personalized prediction outcomes. The constructed diagnostic model demonstrated good NSCLC prediction ability in both the training and validation sets (AUC=0.97).

Conclusions
In summary, the constructed circulating lncRNA-based diagnostic model has good NSCLC prediction ability in clinical samples and provides a potential diagnostic tool for NSCLC.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
Damage to polymer adhesives is one of the most common reasons for structural integrity damage of composite solid propellants. The introduction of self-repairing technology into the adhesive is expected to solve this problem. However, at low temperatures, the self-repairing and mechanical properties of the materials are greatly impaired, thereby limiting the application of self-repairing adhesives in composite solid propellants. In this study, based on the dual synergistic crosslinking strategy, a polyurethane adhesive exhibiting excellent self-healing and mechanical properties at low temperatures was successfully prepared. The adhesive exhibited high self-repairing efficiency and ultra-long elongation at break at low temperatures. Specifically, at a low temperature of −40°C, the self-repair efficiency was over 70% and the elongation at break was over 1,400%, which were much higher than the results of the control group. Moreover, the strength was comparable to that of the control group. This polyurethane adhesive shows excellent self-healing and mechanical properties at low temperatures and is expected to provide the strong self-healing ability and mechanical properties for composite solid propellants, alleviating the problem of structural integrity damage.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
In the application of mobile multimedia and wireless communication system needs an enormous amount of data. Due to the usage of a huge data rate, a superior amount of energy is offered to BER, which effectively enhances the entire energy consumption rate in the system, and also, the generation of CO2 emission leads to global warming. Hence, professionals searched for energy-efficient approaches for attaining enhanced data rates in wireless communication systems. Then, professionals observed the energy efficacy as well as QoS as an essential factor in developing and validating the mobile multimedia communication system that has created superior interest in recent days. In this paper, energy-efficient models are suggested for MIMO-OFDM mobile multimedia communication systems with statistical QoS constraints. Hence, this research suggests a new MTGSO for energy optimization in the MIMO-OFDM mobile multimedia communication system to improve spectral efficiency and system capacity. Thus, the empirical result of the designed method attains better performance regarding average power constraints, achieving 29.8 %, 21.3 %, 123.8 %, and 4.2 % enhanced than SSO, FOA, GSO, and TOA. This energy-efficient hybrid algorithm for MIMO-OFDM proves its efficiency in terms of various performance measures and statistical measures.
