Pregabalin has been used successfully as a component of multimodal analgesia regimen in a variety of surgical procedures. However, side effects such as dizziness and somnolence have been reported especially with doses ≥300mg. We hypothesized that using a lower cumulative dose of oral pregabalin in a divided dosing regimen would lower the incidence of side effects while providing adequate postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing lumbar spine fusion surgery. Seventy adult patients of either sex of ASA 1-3, undergoing lumbar spine fusion surgery under general anesthesia were randomly divided into two equal groups. Group B received oral pregabalin 150mg one hour before induction and 75mg 2 hours after surgery. Group A received oral placebo at the corresponding time points. Pain was assessed using Visual Analogue Score (VAS) at extubation, 2, 4, 6, 12, 18 and 24 hours after surgery. In the first 24 hours after surgery, the mean VAS scores were significantly lower in Group B (P0.001) at all time points while tramadol consumption for rescue analgesia (P0.001) and postoperative nausea (P0.013) and vomiting (P0.011) were significantly higher in Group A. Preoperative anxiety and sedation scores and postoperative incidence of dizziness and somnolence were comparable between the two groups. Low dose oral pregabalin preoperatively and postoperatively using a divided dose regimen can be safely used to provide adequate postoperative analgesia with low incidence of side effects after lumbar spine fusion surgeries.

Published: June 2023

Maxillomandibular analysis relates the upper and lower jaw. The anteroposterior relationship of the maxilla and mandible through both angular and linear measurements is used to assess the sagittal jaw relationship. To evaluate skeletal maxillomandibular changes in patients with class I malocclusion after extraction and non-extraction orthodontic treatment in the Solan population. Cephalometric radiographs before and after treatment of 50 orthodontic patients were used in the study. The sample was divided into 2 groups, Group I (Class I, N=25, extraction cases) and Group II (Class I, N=25, non-extraction cases). Maxillomandibular parameters (ANB, Wits Appraisal, Harvold unit length difference, plane angle AB, convexity angle and MKG angle) were measured in both groups. When comparing the two groups, significant changes were observed in the ANB angle (p=0.05), AO-BO (p=0.00), MKG angle (p=0.03) and convexity angle (p=0, 00). Conversely, Harvold (p=0.70) and AB plane angle (p=0.75) were found to be insignificant. The result of the above study indicated that bone maxillomandibular changes in ANB angle, AO-BO, MKG angle and convexity angle can be observed in patients after extraction and non-extraction orthodontic treatment.

Dermatoglyphics is a study of the unique pattern in the skin of fingers, palms, soles, and toes. These dermatoglyphics has played an important role in various fields like forensic medicine, genetics, and anthropology.Sir Francis Galton stated that an individual’s dermal pattern remained constant throughout their lifetime. Many studies have suggested the possible relation between dermatoglyphics and occlusion.Studies have suggested that dermatoglyphics could be used as a tool to identify the underlying skeletal malocclusion. As the dermal pattern and oral structures develop together, the genetic information in the dermal pattern could be used to assess the different types of skeletal malocclusions. Hence, the study was aimed to compare and evaluate the correlation between dermatoglyphics and class II skeletal malocclusion in horizontal and vertical growth patterns. The total of 50 samples were taken and divided into horizontal and vertical growth pattern consisting of 25 samples each. The dermatoglyphic pattern between the right and left hand and the pattern such as arches, loops, and whorls were evaluated. The data was analyzed by Kolmogorov – Smirnov and Shapiro Wilk test. There was a statistically significant association between class 2 malocclusion and the dermatoglyphic pattern.

Published: June 2023

Background: Despite the high prevalence of proximal humeral fracture, one of the most prevalent osteoporotic fractures, its treatment has always been challenging. Here we are going to determine the factors that affect the outcomes of such fractures.
Methods: The present retrograde cohort study was conducted in a tertiary trauma center during 2015-2020. The Neer classification was used to classify fracture severity. Patients’ functional status was measured using the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire and Constant-Murley Score (CMS). Patients were selected thorough purposive sampling method.
Results: The study participants included 70 patients with a mean age of 50.47 ± 16.73 years. The 3 treatment options of open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) (39 cases; 52%), hemiarthroplasty (3 cases; 4%), and conservative treatment (33 patients; 44%) were considered. Malunion was the most prevalent complication in the study population (9 cases; 12%). The mean DASH score of the participants was 29.91 ± 20.43. The mean DASH score in patients of over 65 years of age was higher than in those under 65 years (36.97 vs. 28.14; P = 0.136). The score in patients underwent surgery (ORIF and hemiarthroplasty) showed a significant difference compared to the patients who were treated non-surgically (P = 0.050). The mean CMS of participants was 64.09 ± 22.71. The mean age of patients classified as “poor” was significantly higher than the “excellent” group (P = 0.041). The mean visual analogue scale (VAS) score of the participants was 2.80 ± 2.49. The VAS score was significantly higher in patients with more severe fracture based on the Neer classification (P = 0.050).
Conclusion: The present study results showed the significant effect of age, fracture severity, and underlying disease on the proximal humeral fracture outcome. A longer follow-up period was observed in patients who had better functional outcomes. However, more studies with larger sample size are required to evaluate proximal humeral fracture outcomes in order to help us to improve outcomes and reduce complications.

Background & Aim: Adopting self-care behaviors is considered an important factor in the prevention of COVID-19. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate Self-Care Behaviors Related to COVID-19 among Iranian elderly with and without a history of infection.
Methods & Materials: This descriptive-correlational study was conducted on 324 elderlies in Iran in 2021. Eligible seniors were selected by convenience sampling and placed into two groups: the elderly with a history of COVID-19 and the elderly without it. The data collection tools included the demographic form and the questionnaire on self-care behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data analysis was done with SPSS software version 25 using descriptive (frequency and percentage) and inferential statistics (Mann-Whitney u-test and independent t-test).
Results: 165 men (50.90%) and 159 women (49.10%) participated in this study. The mean age of the participants was 70.60 ± 8.73. The results showed that there was a statistically significant difference between the self-care behaviors of the elderly with a history of COVID-19 and those without it; the elderly with a history of COVID-19 had more favorable self-care behaviors (p<0.001).
Conclusion: A history of COVID-19 results in better self-care behaviors. It can be justified by constructs of the health beliefs model, including perceived susceptibility, severity, and treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to improve self-care behaviors by using the experiences of infected elders in health education to influence the above mention constructs.

Introduction: The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalance of smoking and related factors among medical students of Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University Medical School. The results of our research are expected to shape the trainings about smoking prevention starting from our faculty and contribute to Global Health Professionals Survey data and discussions determined by WHO, CDC and Canadian Public Health Association.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted at Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University Faculty of Medicine. The questionnaire including demographic characteristics and Beck Anxiety Inventory was applied between December 2018 - January 2019. The data of the study was analyzed with the statistical package program SPSS 20.0.
Results: In this study, the number of medical students reached was 652. 52.6% of the students were female. 30.5% of the medical students were currently smoking. It was found that age (OR: 1.13 95% CI: 1.05-1.21), male gender (OR: 1.9 95% CI: 1.40-2.67) and boarding in high school (OR: 1.5 95% CI: 1.01-2.26) significantly increased the risk of smoking
Discussion: The prevalence of smoking was high among Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University Faculty of Medicine students. The rate of smoking was increases during medical education. The literature suggests that smoking physicians cannot be effective in the struggle againts smoking. In medical education, trainings on struggle tobacco and tobacco products is insufficient. In addition, there should be gained to medical students with the knowledge and skills that can protect their own health and then advocate for anti-smoking campaigns in the community.
Delaying grapevine budbreak to prevent spring freeze damage impacts Lemberger wine flavour compounds under variable weather conditions

Published: June 2023

Delaying grapevine budbreak through viticultural management practices is a promising method to prevent spring freeze damage for small vineyards. However, in cool-climate regions, delaying budbreak can potentially delay fruit development and maturation, negatively impacting wine quality. In this three-year study, 2017–2019, we evaluated the impacts of delaying budbreak on wine volatile and nonvolatile composition for Vitis vinifera c.v. Lemberger at a cool-climate site, and we related treatment impacts on wine composition to consumer perception. We also assessed if treatment impacts were similar across vintages, or if seasonal weather conditions were more important for wine composition than delaying budbreak. We evaluated four treatments each year: a control (C) (no delayed budbreak strategy applied), a vegetable oil-based adjuvant (Amigo®) applied at either 8 % or 10 % (v/v) concentration during dormancy (A8, A10), and late pruning conducted shortly after budbreak (1–4 leaves unfolded) of apical buds (LP). Delays in budbreak between treatments and C vines ranged from 5 days (A8, 2017) to 23 days (LP, 2017) across the 3 years. Furthermore, berry colour change, one of the parameters used to assess véraison, started later in LP vines than in C vines each year. Within each vintage, we found that delayed budbreak treatments, especially LP, had lower concentrations of several volatile compounds than C wines. Furthermore, LP wines tended to have higher monomeric anthocyanins relative to C wines, ranging from 18 % (2019) to 36 % higher (2018). Results from consumer discrimination testing broadly reflected differences in wine chemical composition: consumers perceived LP wines as different from C or A8, depending on the year, and all treatments were different in 2019. However, we found that vintage impacted wine composition more than the delayed budbreak treatments. Of the 49 volatile and nonvolatile compounds detected every year, about half showed significant vintage effects, while only three were consistently different by treatment. Together, our results suggest that delaying grapevine budbreak at a cool-climate site can impact wine chemical composition and perception, especially if phenological delays are still present around véraison; however, seasonal weather conditions remain a more important driver of wine chemical composition than relatively small changes in phenological development.

Digitalization of the Economy and the Cultural Impact of Consumption in Modern Society: A Review from Al-Syaibanī’s Perspective
Authors: Syamsuri Syamsuri , Farizi Maulana , Khotimah Husnul 
Published: June 2023

This study investigated the role of economic digitalization in increasing consumerism in modern society. Consumption issues have arisen along with the prevalence of digital advancement. Despite this trend, modern society continues to impose consumption limits based on one's income or possessions. Thus, this research will answer the consumption issues under the Islamic view according to Imam Al-Syaibani. This study is a descriptive-explanatory qualitative approach to examine consumerism in the context of economic digitalization. To that end, researchers conducted a review of relevant written materials to elucidate contemporary society's consumption issues, which stem from the current trend of digital economy sophistication. The study findings indicate that the prevalence of the digital economy in modern society engenders consumption patterns that impede social welfare, owing to its promotional services, support systems, and lenient credit policies. This is contrary to Islamic principles, as the consumption aspect is based on the benefit of maqashid Al-syariah. Imam Al-Syaibani is one of the economic leaders who has spoken about consumption. Al-Kasb Book discusses the hierarchy of consumption namely Fardl ‘āyn, Mandūb, and Mūba. To reflect, it is possible to address the social problem in modern society using the concept presented.
