The problem of lower limb preservation with symptoms of critical ischemia, resulting in necrosis of the distal foot portion, remains open. These cases require solving few tactical questions, such as the primary revascularization method, limb-preserving amputation, stimulation of regeneration, and finally, determining the criteria for auto-dermal transplantation.
We analyzed 29 patient cases with critical lower limb ischemia of fourth grade, according to the Fontaine classification (or the sixth category according to Rutherford�s classification), who underwent partial foot amputation due to dry gangrene and were threated using PRGF�-ENDORET� platelet-rich plasma and platelet-rich fibrin technology. The control group was comprised of 21 patients who received traditional postoperative wound treatment. All patients went through a combination of transluminal revascularization and platelet-rich plasma to create a �therapeutic� neoangiogenic effect. Indications for these procedures were severe distal arterial occlusion and stenosis.
Using transluminal procedures with platelet-rich plasma therapy improves the blood perfusion to the distal portions of the limb in patients with critical ischemia in a short time, which is an informative diagnostic criterion for wound healing after amputation. Plasmatic membranes create an optimal environment for tissue regeneration, thus reducing the wound closure time using an auto-dermal transplant.

Endometriosis is a chronic benign hormone-dependent condition when the endometrial tissue, identical with the endometrium by its morphological and functional properties, grows outside the borders of the uterine mucous membrane. Recent studies have pointed to the possible role of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. We suggested a hypothesis that increased expression of MMPs activity in eutopic and ectopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis might correlate with the presence of endometriotic lesions.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the level of MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression in the ectopic endometrium of women with visible endometriotic lesions and eutopic endometrium in patients with no signs of endometriosis.
The study was conducted on 43 patients. They were divided into two groups. Group 1 included 31 patients with peritoneal/ovarian endometriosis who had undergone laparoscopy and hysteroscopy. Group 2 consisted of 12 patients with leiomyoma, endometrial polyps or relatively healthy patients who had undergone hysterectomy or polypectomy and endometrial curettage.
This study showed statistically higher expression of MMP-2 (1.7783 ± 0.22 immunohistochemistry (IHC) optical density score compared to the control group – 1.41± 0.34, p = 0.0017) and MMP-9 (1.352 ± 0.067 versus 1.85 ± 0.26 in the control group, p = 0.001) in ectopic and eutopic endometrium samples from patients with endometriosis compared to samples taken from patients without endometriosis. A strong correlation between expression of the above-mentioned MMPs (r=0.74 for MMP-2 and r=0.88 for MMP-9) in ectopic and eutopic endometrium might be of promising diagnostic value.

Published: November 2022

Objectives:
Delay in institution of appropriate mental healthcare is closely linked with attitudes, stigma, and availability of services, which further directs the help seeking pathways. This study was aimed to assess the pathway of care and attitudes toward psychotropic medications among patients with depressive disorder and psychotic disorders.

Materials and Methods:
Eighty outpatients with depressive disorder and 40 patients with psychotic disorder were assessed in a tertiary care center for pathways to care and attitude toward psychotropics through Attitude toward Psychotropic Medications Questionnaire and Drug attitude inventory-10.

Results:
The psychiatrist remained the most common first treatment contact (46% in depression and 62% in psychosis). Greater number of patients in psychotic disorder group had first treatment contact with faith healers or exorcist (17.5%), compared to depressive disorder (6.2%). Patients in depressive group had more favorable attitude toward psychotropics compared to psychosis group. Majority of patients had favorable attitude toward psychotropic medications, but they also had substantial misconceptions about side effects, utility, and need of taking lesser than prescribed doses.

Conclusions:
Although majority of patients had favorable attitude, they also had substantial misconceptions about medications. These issues need to be addressed for better delivery of comprehensive mental healthcare.

Published: November 2022

Objectives:
The primary objective of the study was to compare the number of patients with febrile seizure recurrence within 1 year of presenting to our institute, among patients who received and didn’t receive oral iron supplementation.

Materials and Methods:
This prospective intervention study with historical controls was conducted to compare the number of patients with febrile seizure recurrence within 1 year, among patients who received and did not receive oral iron supplementation. The intervention group additionally received prophylactic iron supplementation of 20 mg biweekly for 1 year.

Results:
A total of 53 patients each were enrolled in both the groups, with comparable baseline characteristics. Although there was a trend toward a lower rate of recurrence of febrile seizures in the interventional group, as compared to the control group, it did not reach the point of statistical significance (P = 0.35). Both in the worst-case scenario and best-case scenario, there was a trend toward less risk of recurrence of febrile seizure in the intervention group, but it did not reach the point of statistical significance (P = 0.43 and 0.52). For the original scenario, worst-case scenario, and best-case scenario, the absolute risk reduction was 6.5%, 7%, and 6%, respectively, with corresponding number needed to treat (NNT) being 15, 14, and 16, respectively. The trend for absolute risk reduction was more pronounced in those with complex febrile seizures with an NNT of 6.5, but it still did not reach the point of statistical significance (P = 0.16). Moderate/severe IDA was also found to be an independent risk factor for recurrence of febrile seizure in the intervention group (P = 0.03).

Conclusion:
Oral serum iron supplementation does not significantly reduce the recurrence rate of febrile seizures in children aged 6–60 months. However, there is a trend toward reduction in the frequency of recurrence of febrile seizures, which is more pronounced in the subset with complex febrile seizures.
Acquired dural arteriovenous fistula after subdural evacuation port system placement: A case report
Authors: Zhang Michael , Fatemi Parastou , Ghajar Jamshid 
Published: November 2022

Background:
The subdural evacuation port system (SEPS) is a rapid, bedside, and less invasive option for subdural hemorrhage management. Proper procedure planning and understanding of the relevant vascular anatomy is important for minimizing complications and future procedures.

Case Description:
We describe a case where following placement of a SEPS, there was immediate development of a new dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) between the middle meningeal artery (MMA) and middle meningeal vein. Angiography confirmed site of shunting to be at the proximity of the twist drill hole placement. Subsequent MMA embolization was performed and follow-up MRI confirmed resolution of the dAVF.

Conclusion:
SEPS-associated dAVF is an underreported complication with potential long-term consequences. This case describes the complication and advocates avoiding SEPS anterior to the coronal suture.
Intracranial extramedullary hematopoiesis in a patient with beta-thalassemia presenting with head trauma
Authors: Nichols Noah M. , Hackett Ashia M. , Carrasquilla Alejandro , Solodnik Paul , Byun Hang , Jones Salazar , Hickman Zachary L. 
Published: November 2022

Background:
Beta-thalassemia is an inherited hemoglobinopathy, whereby reduced or absent expression of beta-globin genes causes impaired erythropoiesis. Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) occurs in 1% of all patients with beta-thalassemia major receiving regular transfusions and is exceedingly rare intracranially.

Case Description:
We report a case of a male in his 20s with beta thalassemia who presented with head trauma found to have intracranial EMH mimicking multiple extra-axial hematomas. Making the correct diagnosis was critical in avoiding prolonged neuromonitoring and unnecessary interventions.

Conclusion:
Intracranial extramedullary hematopoietic pseudotumor is an exceedingly rare entity and seldom appears in a neurosurgeon’s differential diagnosis. This case illustrates how this condition can easily mimic an acute intracranial hemorrhage in a patient with beta-thalassemia who presents with head trauma. We review the topic to further inform clinicians who may encounter this condition in their practice.

Published: November 2022

Background:
The optimal treatment of lumbar canal stenosis (LCS) associated with osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs) remains unclear. Here, we have combined a minimally invasive unilateral laminotomy for bilateral decompression (ULBD) alone with balloon kyphoplasty (BKP) for LCS aggravated by OVF.

Methods:
ULBD with BKP was performed in three patients who showed LCS associated with OVFs on MR images with progressive lower extremity neurological deficits. Clinical outcomes were assessed using the numerical rating scale (NRS) and the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score. Radiological outcomes were evaluated using multiple parameters (i.e., fractured vertebral body height, lumbar lordosis [LL], and focal angle of the fractured vertebral body).

Results:
Over 6 postoperative months, the NRS and JOA scores were clearly improved while radiological parameters remained maintained (i.e., loss of fractured vertebral body height was only 0.3–1.4 mm in all cases). Two of the three cases showed restoration of LL and focal angle postoperatively.

Conclusion:
The combination of ULBD with BKP is an effective option for LCS aggravated by OVF.

Konseling dalam Bai’at Tarekat Shiddiqiyyah
Authors: Syakur Abd 
Published: November 2022

This article explores the counseling aspects of Tariqa Shiddiqiyyah bai’a. Whereas, the bai’a of tariqa can effectively form a counscious personality (ma’rifat) that is present in Allah’s environtment so that a militant attitude emerges in doing worship. The main question is what are the values of counseling in the bai’a of Shiddiqiyyah Tariqa? How to use tariqa bai’a in counteracting extremism and radicalism? This research was carried out qualitatively which made bai’a of tariqa the main data collected through involved observation, in-depth interview, and documentation. The collected data were analyzed using phenomenological interpretation techniques. The results show; first, bai’a of the tariqa of Shiddiqiyyah is a murshid discourse to his students to be intensive in reciting dhikr; the murshid or caliph always guides and accompanies the student in dhikr, so that the student must present in imaginary murshid figure in him self when doing dhikr. Seond, the bai’a of Shiddiqiyyah tariqa teaches the unity of the servant with God, namely, 1) Shiddiqiyyah students must identify with the attributes of Allah as Almighty Who always works hard to provide sustenaince and protect His servants, 2) Students of Shiddiqiyyah tariqa position themselves as servants who are guided by ‘Gusti’ Allah, The Lord of The Most excellency of the King, so that they are diligent in working to achieve His blessings and mercy. So, the bai’a of Shiddiqiyyah tariqa is projected to guide the tariqa students in order to synergize between true faith in Allah with the spirit of working as worship to gain the benefit of life. On that basis, the bai’ah of tariqa creats militancy for work and worship which also has the potencial to ward off the militancy of terrorists who fail to understand in doing God services.

The first issue of 2014 is a themed number titled ‘Friendship, Morality, and Experience’. It brings together the work of five scholars who present different topics and perspectives on the anthropology of friendship. The collection has its origins in a panel discussion carrying the same name held at the 2011 American Anthropological Association annual meeting in Montreal. The organizers of the panel, Valerio Simoni (The Graduate Institute, Geneva) and Jason Throop (University of California, Los Angeles), compiled the papers and offered them to Suomen Antropologi. They have also written an introduction for the collection, where they supply an overview of the subject and the content of the articles. Friendship has become a prominent topic in anthropology of the 2000s and we are happy to provide a publishing platform for its theoretical and ethnographical development.
