Published: June 2023

Objective: Pathological complete response (pCR) occurs in about 20-30% of patients undergoing systemic neoadjuvant therapy. This leads to the idea of sparing the patient the morbidity associated with axillary surgery. “Wait and watch” policy for cancers which achieve complete pathological response on neoadjuvant systemic therapy is a well-established practice in various cancers like the esophagus, rectum and larynx. This has led to organ preservation protocols being practiced worldwide for these cancers without affecting the overall survival of the patient. We believe patients undergoing a complete pathological response in the breast may be spared axillary surgery. Axillary surgery leads to morbidity and extra financial burden with no added advantage in survival.
Material and Methods: A total of 326 patients with breast cancer who had received neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy from 2015 to 2020 were included in our retrospective study. Final histopathology of the breast and axillary surgery was noted to report the frequency of complete pathological response. The frequency of positive nodal disease with respect to stage, grade and type of cancer was measured.
Results: Among 326 patients, our study showed that 53% of patients with complete pathological response in breast also had complete response in the axilla compared to 43% with incomplete pathological response. No significant difference was found for age, menopausal status, initial tumor size when patients with complete pathological response were compared to non or partial responders. The rate of complete pathological response was higher in patients with clinically node negative patients after NACT, hormone negative, HER2 positive and triple negative population.
Conclusion: Our results indicated that 53% of the patients who developed complete pathological response in the breast underwent needless axillary procedure. Axillary surgery can be staged after the breast surgery if residual tumor is present on the histopathological specimen. In case of pCR, omission of axillary surgery can be considered. However, a larger population, multi-centric studies are needed for treatment guidelines.

Objective: Hyoscine-N-butylbromide is used by some surgeons during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) to loosen gastric smooth muscles and to provide a more effective LSG. However, evidence-based data on the effects of hyoscine-N-butylbromide in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy are limited and its effect on sleeve gastrectomy surgery and weight loss is unknown. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of intraoperatively administered hyoscine-N-butylbromide on stomach resection volume, weight loss and complications seen in patients undergoing LSG.
Material and Methods: Patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy due to morbid obesity were included in the study. Intraoperative hyoscine-N-butylbromide was administered to 52 patients (Group 1), not applied to the other 52 patients (Group 2). Age, sex, height, weight and body mass index (BMI) data of the patients were obtained retrospectively. The weight, BMI, percentage of total weight loss (TWL%) and percentage of excess weight loss (EWL%) of the patients were evaluated at postoperative third, sixth and 12th months.
Results: Resected gastric volume (p= 0.111), length of stapler line (p= 0.944), operation time (p= 0.383), hospitalization time (p= 0.494) and postoperative complications (p> 0.05) did not differ between Groups 1 and 2. However, frequency of intraoperative tachycardia (p< 0.001) and hypotension (p= 0.006) in Group 1 was significantly higher than in Group 2. TWL% and EWL% values were similar between the two groups at all-time points. Stapler line leakage was not observed in any patient during the postoperative period.
Conclusion: Intraoperative hyoscine-N-butylbromide use is not effective on weight loss postoperatively in patients undergoing LSG. Although hypotension and tachycardia occured in some of patients, none of the patients had complaints in the early or long-term postoperative period. The use of hyoscine-N-butylbromide during LSG is safe but does not have any effect on weight loss.
NIKAIA (İZNİK) SURLARININ MİMARİSİ; ANITSAL KAPILAR, DUVARLAR VE BURÇLAR
Authors: KULELİ Ayşe Esin 
Published: June 2023

İznik, Helenistik, Roma, Bizans, Selçuklu ve Osmanlı dönemlerine tarihlenen çok katmanlı kültürel mirası ile önemli bir antik kenttir.
İznik şehrinin savunma sistemine ihtiyaç duymadığı Roma Barışı (MÖ 27-MÖ 180) döneminde, kente girişi simgeleyen anıtsal kapılar, kentin ana yol akslarının bitimine gelecek şekilde inşa edilmiştir (MS 78-79). Ancak MS 250’li yıllarda Gotların saldırılarından sonra, Gallienus (253-268) ve Gothicus (268-269) dönemlerinde surların yapımına ihtiyaç duyulmuştur. Geç dönemde Lascaris (1205-1222), Vatatzes (1222-1254) ana surların dışına, dış surlar inşa ederek kentin korunması için önemli müdahalelerde bulunmuşlardır. 1330'da İznik, Türk Sultanı Orhan tarafından fethedilmiştir.
Nikaia savunma sistemi, ana surlar, sonradan eklenen dış sur duvarları, kapılar, burçlar ve dış çeperdeki hendekten oluşmaktadır. Savunma sisteminin ilk etabı olan ana surlar, dıştaki sur duvarları yapıldıktan sonra iç sur niteliği kazanmış olup, bu araştırmanın konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Bu duvarlar, tarihsel süreçte onarım, yeniden yapım gibi müdahaleler gördüğü için, farklı dönemlere ait izleri yansıtmaktadır.
Yaklaşık 5 km uzunluğundaki ana sur sistemi tarihi süreçte gerçekleştirilen onarım, rekonstrüksiyon, genişletme, güçlendirme gibi müdahaleler görmekle birlikte, mimarisi incelendiğinde yapının halen anıtsal niteliğini koruduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Sur duvarlarının ve burçların yapımında kullanılan yapı malzemeleri ve sistemleri, yapım dönemine göre farklılıklar göstermektedir.
Araştırma kapsamında, İznik surlarının ana sur/ iç sur olarak inşa edilen duvarlarında yer alan anıtsal kapıların, sur duvarlarının ve burçların genel mimari nitelikleri anlatılmıştır. Ayrıca, yapıların yerinde yapılan incelemeleri sırasında yapım sistemi ve malzeme kullanımı konusunda birbirinden farklılaştığı tespit edilen detaylar irdelenmiş, araştırmada ulaşılan ve üretilen verilerin araştırmacılarla paylaşılması amaçlanmıştır.
The Porous Museum
Authors: Nicolescu Gabriela 
Published: June 2023

The Porous Museum examines questions of museum practice, aesthetics and politics through a focused study of The National Museum of the Romanian Peasant in Bucharest. The museum has functioned successively as a museum of art, a communist museum, the headquarters of the communist secret police, and a museum of folk art. Gabriela Nicolescu traces the museum’s spectacular biography and follows the transformation of its practices and aesthetics through three very different political regimes in the 20th and early 21st century: monarchist, socialist and post-socialist.
Nicolescu’s fascinating study starts with a focus on a dumped and smashed statue of the revolutionary figureheads Marx, Engels and Lenin in the museum’s rear yard as an expression of the complicated journey of modern Romania. She considers questions of recycling and rupture, with some exhibits and practices carried over from one regime to another, and others discarded in favour of the completely new. Through this process, the museum can been seen as a microcosm of the wider nation state and the ways in which the past is remembered or rejected.
The interdependency of politics, ethics and aesthetics that Nicolescu terms ‘porosity’ is an attribute of museums all over the world. Applying original anthropological research to key ethnographic museums in Romania and elsewhere in Europe, the book moves beyond regional and media stereotypes by arguing for the influence of local oral histories on national history.
Domicide
Authors: Azzouz Ammar 
Published: June 2023

The city of Homs, like so many places in Syria, has suffered mass destruction since the war began in 2011. So far, the architectural response to the crisis has focused on ‘cultural heritage’, ancient architecture, and the external displacement of refugees, often neglecting the everyday lives of Syrians and the buildings that make up their homes and communities. In Domicide, Ammar Azzouz uses the notion of the ‘home’ to address the destruction in cities like Homs, the displacement of Syrian people both externally and internally, and to explore how cities can be rebuilt without causing further damage to the communities that live there.
Drawing on interviews with those working in the built environment professions, both inside and outside of Syria, but also Syrians from other backgrounds who have become ‘architects’ in their own way as they were forced to repair and rebuild their homes by themselves, Domicide offers fresh insight into the role of the architect during time of war, and explores how the future reconstruction of cities should mirror the wants and needs, the traditions and ways of living, of local communities. Focusing on Homs but offering a blueprint for other urban areas of conflict across Syria and the wider world, the book is essential reading for researchers in architecture, urban planning, heritage studies and conflict studies.
This book deals with the mass destruction of the built environment in Syria, and the displacement of millions of people from their home since 2011. It builds on the term domicide that refers to the widespread and the deliberate destruction of home both at the time of war and peace. The book brings the struggle of people impacted by domicide closer to the conversations about violence and the built environment. It engages with two parallels of Syrians: Syrians inside Syria, and Syrians outside Syria who construct their imagined homelands in their exile. By bringing their narratives of home loss, grief and struggle, the book refuses to separate the questions of architecture, destruction and reconstruction from the people whose lives have been transformed by war. Domicide in war and peace traces the erasure and destruction of tangible history from the demolition of cultural heritage sites before the start of the revolution, to the razing of entire neighbourhoods to ground at the time of war. It also explores how the emerging reconstruction plans weaponise the built environment through the waves of destruction and displacement they bring with them. By looking at the violence against the built environment throughout the lens of time, this book traces the relationship between domicide at the time of war and ‘peace’. This work is the first comprehensive book of its kind as it builds on the narratives and voices of impacted communities in Syria. It offers an original perspective to those seeking to better understand domicide in Syria.
Body Count’s Body Count
Authors: Apatoff Ben 
Published: June 2023

Years before movements like Black Lives Matter and Afropunk became world-changing political and cultural forces, a band of punk and metal dissidents made a record that confronted white supremacy and police brutality while shattering musical boundaries. On their debut album, Body Count attacked preconceived notions about race and music in the United States, but the US was not ready. The album’s controversial lyrical content sparked protests and boycotts, was publicly denounced by the President and Vice President of the United States, and was subjected to nationwide campaigns to pull the record from stores. The record was pulled, and the single “Cop Killer” was removed from future pressings. But decades later, Body Count looks more and more prescient, a depiction of an America its lawmakers didn't want to examine, that needed to be examined for them.
Body Count’s Body Count tracks how a team of LA misfits released a musically and thematically defiant album that still sounds revolutionary today. In the 2020s, Body Count is releasing some of their most acclaimed music, playing to large audiences and even winning a Grammy. This is the story of how and underappreciated band overcame powerful adversaries to reshape America’s cultural conversation.
Feminist Posthumanism in Contemporary Science Fiction Film and Media
Authors: Empey Julia A. , Kilbourn Russell J. A. 
Published: June 2023

Feminist Posthumanism in Contemporary Science Fiction Film and Media: From Annihilation to High Life and Beyond places posthumanism and feminist theory into dialogue with contemporary science fiction film and media. This essay collection is intimately invested in the debates around the posthuman and the critical posthumanities within a feminist critical-theoretical framework.
In this posthumanist light, science fiction as a genre allows for new imaginings of human-technological relations, while it can also be the site of a critique of human exceptionalism and essentialism. In this way, science fiction affords unique opportunities for the scholarly investigation of the relevance and relative applicability of specific posthumanist themes and questions in a particularly rich and wide-ranging popular cultural field of production. One of the reasons for this suitability is the genre’s historically longstanding relationship with the critical investigation of gender, specifically the position and relative empowerment of women.
The original analyses presented here pay close attention to audiovisual style (including game mechanics), facilitating the critical interrogation of the issues and questions around posthumanism. Where typically the mention of SF in the posthumanist context calls to mind a whole set of (often clichéd) tropes—the cyborg, technologically augmented bodies, AI subjectivities, etc.—this volume’s thirteen chapters analyze specific examples of contemporary SF cinema that engage in meaningful ways with the burgeoning field of critical posthumanism, and that utilize such films to interrogate posthumanist and feminist as well as humanistic ideas.

Geospatial modelling of large-wood supply to rivers: a state-of-the-art model comparison in Swiss mountain river catchments

Published: June 2023

Abstract. Different models have been used in science and practice to identify instream large-wood (LW) sources and to estimate LW supply to rivers. This
contribution reviews the existing models proposed in the last 35 years and compares two of the most recent geographic information system (GIS)-based models by applying them to 40 catchments in Switzerland. Both models, which we call here the empirical GIS approach (EGA) and fuzzy-logic GIS approach (FGA), consider landslides, debris flows, bank erosion, and mobilization of instream wood as recruitment processes and compute volumetric estimates of LW supply based on three different scenarios of process frequency and magnitude. Despite being developed following similar concepts and fed with similar input data, the results from the two models differ markedly. In general, estimated supply wood volumes were larger in each of the scenarios when computed with the FGA and lower with the EGA models. Landslides were the dominant process identified by the EGA, whereas bank erosion was the predominant process according to the FGA model. These differences are discussed, and results are compared to available observations coming from a unique database. Regardless of the limitations of these models, they are useful tools for hazard assessment, the design of infrastructure, and other management strategies.

Published: June 2023

Introduction:
Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) has become a popular option for the surgical management of rotator cuff arthropathy and complex fractures of the proximal humerus. However, there is a paucity of studies evaluating outcomes, especially between patients of different age groups. The purpose of this study was to compare functional outcomes and survivorship between patients older than 65 years (o65) and those 65 years and younger (y65).

Methods:
A retrospective review was conducted at a single academic medical center identifying a consecutive cohort of patients undergoing rTSA between 2018 and 2020. The minimum follow-up time was 2 years. Patients were stratified into two groups for comparative analyses (y65 and o65). Patient demographics, perioperative and postoperative data, and functional outcomes were collected. A Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was conducted to determine survivorship, defined as revision surgery or implant failure.

Results:
Forty-eight patients were included for final analysis. Nineteen patients comprised the y65 group while 29 patients comprised the o65 group. No difference was observed in Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand scores at baseline nor at the latest follow-up between the two groups. Patients in the y65 group had significantly greater internal and external rotation (IR/ER) from 3 months to 2 years compared with patients in the o65 group (P ≤ 0.05). Finally, there were no differences in revision surgery rates between the y65 group and the o65 group (11% vs. 14%, P = 1.0). A KM survival analysis revealed no difference in implant failure, necessitating revision surgery between the two groups at the latest follow-up (P = 0.69).

Discussion:
Despite a notable difference in the number of baseline comorbidities, there were no notable differences in functional outcomes, survivorship, and revision surgery rates between each cohort. Although both groups had a similar function initially, by 3 months postoperatively, the y65 group had markedly greater range of motion in IR and ER. Longer term survivorship is needed; however, rTSA may offer a reliable option for shoulder reconstruction even in the y65 patient group.
