Published: March 2023

Abstract

Objectives: The presence of a functional cochlear nerve is a key issue in the preoperative evaluation of pediatric candidates for cochlear implants. Correlations between cochlear nerve deficiency (CND) and bony abnormalities of the labyrinth or bony canal of the cochlear nerve are not yet well understood. The aim of this study was to determine whether the width of the bony cochlear canal (BCNC) can serve as a reliable predictive factor for the existence of a CND.

Materials and methods: A total of 11 children with a confirmed diagnosis of prelingual, severe sensorineural hearing loss were included in this study. In all patients, indication for CI was confirmed and according to the preoperative protocol, high-resolution CT and MR were performed. Reconstructions at a distance of 0.6 mm of the axial plane and images from the HRCT of temporal bones were used for measuring the width of the BCNC. The cochlear nerves were evaluated on axial and sagittal – oblique T2 – MRI images and classified as normal, hypoplastic or aplastic. Two factors were reviewed retrospectively: the presence of inner ear anomalies and the relationship between BCNC stenosis and the existence of CND.

Results: From a total of 22 temporal bones analyzed (22 ears in 11 patients), inner ear malformations were detected in 6 ears from 3 patients (27.27%). All three children had a bilateral malformation, in one it was Michel deformity and in two it was IP2 (incomplete partition 2). The BCNC diameter ranged from 0.1mm to 2.33mm with a mean value of 1.46±0.6mm. CND was recorded in 4 of 22 ears and all were associated with stenosis of the BCNC. In a total of three ears with a stenotic canal, we obtained a normal finding for the cochlear nerve on MR.

Conclusion: Children with BCNC stenosis have a high incidence of CND. A narrowed BCNC on CT can be an indicator for the selection of children with sensorineural hearing loss who will need to be additionally referred for MRI in order to definitively assess the status of the cochlear nerve.

Published: March 2023

Centrifugal pumps have a design consisting of an impeller rotor and an inlet channel in the middle. When the rotor of impeller rotates, the fluid will flow into the casing due to the centrifugal force. Suction Centrifugal pump casing is designed in the form of a diffuser that surrounds the pump impeller. This diffuser is more commonly known as the volute casing. In accordance with the function of the diffuser, the volute casing serves to reduce the flow velocity of the fluid entering the pump. The stopper is a fixture that is used as a support for the suction cover part during the grooving process. Stopper is used so that the surface turning results are not oval . Grooving is a process to form a groove on a workpiece by using a lathe or milling machine and others . To give the results of the groove surface on the suction cover, it is necessary to carry out a grooving process. The grooving process is used to smooth the grooves on the suction cover surface. However, because the diameter of the suction cover is quite large, an additional fixture is needed to support the suction cover so that it remains in an even position during the grooving process. The stopper is important thing in the process of grooving suction cover type E-100 50 with a spindle speed of 180 rpm. The dimensions of the proposed stopper are 155.88 mm long, 150mm wide, and 150m high. So this stopper fixture must be strong and stable during the machining process. The purpose of this paper is to propose a 3D fixture design during the process of grooving the suction cover E 100 50. This research was carried out theoretically using data machining and parts obtained during observation. Compilation of observational data in the form of images and strength analysis in 3 dimensions using Autodesk Fusion 360 software. The results of this study are divided into 2 parts, 3D design and strength analysis including von mises stress, displacement and safety factor. From the results of the simulation von mises in picture 8, it shows that the stress that occurs is 32.59 MPa at the most critical part. The critical part is the upper support section which is the center of support. From the results of the simulation displacement in picture 9 it shows that the change (displacement) in the design stopper maximum so that deformation occurs, which is indicated by a red color of 0.002668mm. Changes above 1mm the material will break. This shows that the shape and dimensions of the stopper are said to be in the safe category. From the picture of the results of thesimulation Safety Factor in picture 10, it shows that the value of the safety factor for a sufficient level of safety is 6.353. If it is less than the value of the safety factor, the material has been deformed or broken because the maximum stress is comparable to or greater than the yield strength of the material.

Trait emotional intelligence as predictor of psychological health in undergraduate medical students: A hierarchical multiple regression approach
Authors: Jain Preeti , Jain Peeyush 
Published: March 2023

Objectives:
Trait emotional intelligence (TEI) is a key personality construct by which an individual recognizes, understands, expresses and regulates emotions in self and others to adapt to environments or achieve one’s goals. TEI skills are modifiable and have a potential to significantly influence psychological health (PH) of a person. The aims of current work were to evaluate relationship between TEI and PH of medical students and to explore the incremental validity of TEI to predict psychological distress beyond sociodemographic and educational factors in them.

Materials and Methods:
One hundred and thirty-two medical students (mean age 18.02 years) participated in this cross-sectional study. TEI and PH were assessed using TEI questionnaire short form (TEIQue-sf) and depression, anxiety and stress scale (DASS-21), respectively. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was carried out to determine if scores on TEIQue-sf added significantly to the prediction of psychological symptoms in medical students.

Results:
There was a significant negative association (r = −0.57, P < 0.001) between TEIQue-sf and DASS-21 scores. Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that after controlling for sociodemographic and educational variables, TEIQue-sf scores explained a statistically significant increment of variance (P < 0.001) in DASS-21 scores. TEI emerged as best predictor of psychological distress of medical students followed by educational factors. However, sociodemographic profile as an attribute failed to demonstrate significant capacity to predict PH of our participants.

Conclusion:
Our results indicate that TEI is a robust and unique predictor of better PH and plays a positive role in promoting psychological well-being.

Authors: Agarwal Bela , Parab Shrutika Dilip , Amberkar Oshin , Mullerpatan Rajani 
Published: March 2023

Objectives:
Inactivity in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) results in low physical fitness, cardiopulmonary endurance and poor quality of life. Sports participation is known to enhance physical fitness. Therefore, the present study evaluated effect of a structured, 12-week MGM Sports Intervention for Sports Intervention Program for SCI (SPISI) on physical fitness and throw-ball performance in individuals with SCI.

Materials and Methods:
The study was conducted at MGM School of Physiotherapy and Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation centre in Navi Mumbai, India. Following ethical approval, 15 individuals with SCI (80% males and 20% females mean age 33.1 ± 7.2 years) were recruited. Upper-extremity explosive power (medicine-ball-throw), agility (t-test), cardiorespiratory endurance (incremental shuttle wheelchair propulsion test) and ball-throwing capacity (maximal-pass test) were evaluated pre- and post-12-week sports intervention programme (SPISI). The protocol involved strength training of upper extremity training at 50% 1 repetition maximum and participation in throw-ball sport.

Results:
Following training, increase in upper extremity explosive power (11%), cardiopulmonary endurance (5%), agility (8%) and ball-throwing capacity in distance (7%) (P < 0.05) was observed. The large effect size was observed for sports performance (maximal-pass test distance-Cohen’s d 1.261), moderate for cardiorespiratory endurance (incremental wheelchair propulsion test distance Cohen’s d 0.517) and upper extremity explosive power (medicine-ball throw distance 0.593). Increment in all outcome variables was greater than minimal clinically important difference.

Conclusion:
Sports intervention programme (SPISI) for 12 weeks brought about minimal clinically important difference in upper-extremity explosive power, agility, cardiorespiratory endurance and sport-specific performance and should be included as an integral component of rehabilitation of individuals with SCI.
Effects of cloperastine, a non-narcotic antitussive, on the expression of GIRK channels in the brain of methamphetamine-induced hyperactive mice
Authors: Soeda Fumio , Kinoshita Mizue , Fujieda Yoshiko , Takahama Kazuo 
Published: March 2023

Objectives:
Centrally-acting antitussives with inhibitory effects on G protein-coupled inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels have been shown to also inhibit methamphetamine-induced hyperactivity in mice. In this study, we examined if cloperastine, which is the most potent inhibitor of the GIRK channels among antitussives, is sensitive to the expression levels of GIRK channels in the brain of methamphetamine-treated mice.

Materials and Methods:
The brain tissues have been removed and the total RNA has been extracted from tissues. The mRNA levels were evaluated using semiquantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.

Results:
The concentration levels of the mRNA of GIRK channels within the ventral midbrain of methamphetamine-treated mice increased as compared with that in control and cloperastine reduced an upregulation in GIRK2, one of the subunits of the GIRK channels, by the injection of methamphetamine.

Conclusion:
These findings suggest that cloperastine might ameliorate hyperactivity by inhibiting the GIRK channels in the brain.
