How to reset metabolic setpoint in obesity management
Authors: Sanjay Kalra  , Saurabh Arora  , Nitin Kapoor  
Published: March 2022

The metabolic setpoint theory is based upon the premise that there is a barohomeostatic mechanism in humans which maintains weight within a predetermined range. This is viewed as an obstacle to weight loss, but can also be considered an opportunity to reset the barometabolic setpoint. This expert clinical opinion piece shares pragmatic suggestions on how to achieve this. Initiating with monotherapy, titrating dosage gradually, inter-changing treatment if needed, troubleshooting where necessary and intensifying slowly to combination therapy help reset the barometabolic homeostatic range.

Published: March 2022

Fahr's disease is a rare clinical neurodegenerative entity, occurring mainly in 4th or 5th decade, showing gradually progressive bilateral symmetric calcifications in basal ganglia, subcortical white matter, thalami or cerebellum, which can lead to movement disorder and/or neuropsychiatric manifestations. We present two cases in the same family; a 68-year-old brother had involuntary jerky movements of hand and dysarthria for 10 years while the 44-year-old sister had right lower limb spasticity and decreased vision for 2 years. The serial MRI scans showed slow progression in the bilateral subcortical white matter and cerebellar dentate nuclei calcifications along with surrounding reactive gliosis.

Authors: Sami Ullah  , Dilshad Hunain Al Arabia  , Farooq Azam Rathore  
Published: March 2022

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is one of the most common metabolic disorders in the world. It can result in several neurological and musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions. These conditions adversely affect the mobility, community functioning and quality of life for the patient with DM. Rehabilitation Medicine Physicians (Physiatrists) can offer both diagnostic and therapeutic interventions for the accurate diagnosis and optimal management of neurological and MSK conditions associated with DM. These include diagnostic tests such as Nerve Conduction Studies and Electromyography, therapeutic interventions in form of pharmacological management of symptoms, prescription of appropriate physical therapy, occupational therapeutic exercise, injections, as well as psychosocial and cognitive interventions. A physiatrist can provide expert advice on musculoskeletal disorders in patients with DM, as they are formally trained in the evaluation, diagnosis, and management of MSK conditions. A multidisciplinary team for DM should include a physiatrist as one of the key members. This can help effectively address neurological and MSK disorders related to DM.

The study further recommended strategy that will enhance the implementation of BDT in HEIs.
Vitamin B12 Testing in People With Suspected Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Authors: Hamel Candyce , Spry Carolyn 
Published: March 2022

Findings from 3 diagnostic accuracy studies indicate that individual tests are insufficient to diagnose vitamin B12 deficiency, and a testing strategy that uses homocysteine and methylmalonic acid should be used in individuals suspected or at risk of vitamin B12 deficiency. This is supported by a health technology assessment that concluded that the current evidence does not provide enough information to determine the most appropriate test, or combination of tests to use in these patients.
The patient populations varied in the primary studies included in the systematic reviews and in the primary studies identified in this review, which may impact the generalizability of the results.
Reference standards and cut-off values (i.e., thresholds) used to diagnose vitamin B12 deficiency varied in the primary studies. Presentation of units (e.g., pg/mL, pmol/L) also varied, making it difficult to compare results across studies.
No studies were identified that evaluated the clinical utility of vitamin B12 testing in people with suspected vitamin B12 deficiency.
No studies were identified that evaluated the cost-effectiveness of vitamin B12 testing in people with suspected vitamin B12 deficiency.
No evidence-based guidelines were identified regarding the use of vitamin B12 testing in people with suspected vitamin B12 deficiency.

Abstract. Diabetic foot infection is a frequent complication in long-standing
diabetes mellitus. For antimicrobial therapy of this infection, both the
optimal duration and the route of administration are often based more on
expert opinion than on published evidence. We reviewed the scientific
literature, specifically seeking prospective trials, and aimed at addressing
two clinical issues: (1) shortening the currently recommended antibiotic
duration and (2) using oral (rather than parenteral) therapy, especially
after the patient has undergone debridement and revascularization. We also
reviewed some older key articles that are critical to our understanding of the
treatment of these infections, particularly with respect to diabetic foot osteomyelitis.
Our conclusion is that the maximum duration of antibiotic therapy for
osteomyelitis should be no more than to 4–6 weeks and might even be shorter
in selected cases. In the future, in addition to conducting randomized trials and propagating national and international guidance, we should also explore
innovative strategies, such as intraosseous antibiotic agents and
bacteriophages.

Published: March 2022

Introduction. The aim of the study was to analyze the provision of specialized medical care by vascular surgeons during the COVID-19 pandemic on the example of the Sverdlovsk Regional Clinical Hospital No. 1.Materials and methods. A retrospective analysis of the activities of vascular surgeons of Sverdlovsk Regional Clinical Hospital No. 1 in 2020 was conducted. In addition, an assessment was given of the organization of measures aimed at reducing nosocomial infection and the spread of a new coronavirus infection.Results. The number of outpatient visits to a vascular surgeon in 2020 decreased by about 10%, and the number of hospitalizations to the vascular surgery department decreased by more than a third compared to previous years. But in 2020, the number of consultations of a vascular surgeon with the use of telemedicine technologies increased almost 2 times. In the vast majority of cases, patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm underwent endovascular prosthetics, which significantly reduced the time spent in the hospital and minimized the risks of nosocomial infection with COVID-19. The preoperative preparation included: computed tomography of the lungs and determination of coronavirus RNA (SARS-CoV-2) by PCR. In addition, on the day of hospitalization, it was mandatory to conduct: thorough collection of an epidemiological history and characteristic complaints, thermometry. Also, in order to prevent the spread of a new coronavirus infection, isolators for temporary stay of patients with suspected COVID-19 were organized in the emergency room and hospital departments.Conclusions. All organizational measures at the Sverdlovsk Regional Clinical Hospital No. 1 have made it possible to minimize the risk of nosocomial infection and the spread of COVID-19, thereby ensuring continuous work on the provision of planned and emergency specialized medical care.

Introduction. Uterine leiomyoma is the most common benign tumor in women, which is accompanied by the life quality decrease and infertility. Despite numerous studies, the etiology of uterine myoma is still unknown.The aim of the study was to determine the effects of a mixture of polyclonal activators on the interleukin production by dominant myomatous and myometrial tissue samples under treating by ulipristal acetate (UA), a selective modulator of progesterone receptors.Materials and methods. Surgical material of 35 reproductiveaged women with multiple uterine myoma (1st group – without hormone therapy, 2nd group – after UA) was studied using enzyme immunoassay analysis. After determining of cytokine production, being spontaneous and stimulated by polyclonal activators phytohemagglutinin, concanavalin A, and lipopolysaccharide, the cytokine production stimulation index (SIPA) was calculated, followed by statistical analysis.Results. In patients of the 1st group the SIPA of IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-10 in the myomatous nodes and myometrium did not differ; at the same time, SIPA of IL-18 and 17-OH-progesterone were statistically higher in the myometrium samples than in the nodes (p < 0.05). In patients of the 2nd group, who have been treated by UA before myomectomy, there was a significantly higher SIPA of the IL-6 (p < 0.001) and IL-10 (p = 0.002) in the myometrium samples, compared with the dominant nodes. When comparing the nodes and myometrium between two groups, it was revealed that, compared with the 1st group, in patients using UA in the supernatants of myomatous nodes, out of 5 studied markers, the SIPA of the pro-inflammatory cytokine Il-6 was down-regulated (p = 0.013). In the myometrial supernatants in the 2nd group, there were a higher SIPA of anti-inflammatory IL-10 (p < 0.001), as well as the lower levels of pro-inflammatory IL-18 (p < 0.001).Discussion. The results of study demonstrate the anti-inflammatory effect of UA on the cellular elements of the dominant myomatous nodes and perifocal myometrium, and also confirm the role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of uterine fibroids.Conclusion. Polyclonal activators during in vitro incubation, had multidirectional effects on the production of some interleukins and the content of the progesterone metabolite in the tissue of the dominant myomatous node and perifocal myometrium.

Published: March 2022

Günümüzde yaşanan Kovid-19 salgını çok sayıda kişinin ölümüne sebep olmuştur. Bu etkinin devam edeceği ve yeni salgın dalgaları ile insanlığın yeni bir düzene geçeceği tahmin edilmektedir. Yapay zekâ kullanımının artması; çalışma hayatında daha çok yapay zekâ robotlarının yer alması ile yapay zekâ robotların çalışma esnasında üçüncü kişilere vereceği zararlardan sorumluluk hususu daha çok gündeme gelecektir.
Hukuk sistemleri, genel olarak kusur esasına dayalı sorumluluk halleri üzerine kurulmuştur. Borcun kaynağı açısından sözleşmeden ve haksız fiilden kaynaklanan borçlar olarak ayrıma gidilmiş olup, bazı hukuk sistemlerinde sebepsiz zenginleşme, akit benzeri veya haksız fiil benzeri sorumluluk halleri eklenmiştir. Kusursuz sorumluluk halleri daha çok kanundan veya iş ve oluşun doğasından kaynaklı özen yükümlülüğünün yerine getirilmemesi sebebiyle uğranılan zararın tazmininde ortaya çıkmaktadır. Kusursuz sorumluluk hali olarak sayılan adam çalıştıran sorumluluğunu, sorumlu olunan kişiyle arada akdi ilişki olmaması sebebiyle akit dışı kusursuz sorumluluk hali olarak tanımlamak mümkündür. Adam seçmede, denetlemede ve talimat vermede özensizlik, adam çalıştıran açısından sorumluluk doğurmaktadır. Kanunen yazılı olmasa da işin doğası gereği, özen yükümlülüğüne aykırılığın, haksızlık olarak ortaya çıktığı da söylenebilir. Adam çalıştıranın sorumluluğu, büyük işletmelerde organizasyon sorumluluğu olarak da anılmaktadır. Robotlaşan dünyada tehlike boyutlarının artması, zararın meydana gelme olasılığını artıracağından, kimin sorumlu tutulması gerektiği konusunun, adam çalıştıranın sorumluluğu kapsamında tartışılması gerekmektedir. Tehlikenin büyük olması sebebiyle böyle bir riskin sigortalanmasının da kanunen zorunlu tutulması hususu değerlendirilmelidir.

Published: March 2022

With more than half of the world’s population residing within 60 kms of the shoreline (IUCN 1995) and livelihoods and sustenance dependent on the coastal ecosystems, conservation of coastal biodiversity is critical.
The crisis of the Konkan coast emphasizes the need to stop further degradation of terrestrial and marine resources, protect & restore habitats and life sustaining ecological linkages and promote sustainable development to benefit residents and traditional communities. The author has identified 5 Biospheres and 12 Sites of Special Scientific Interest on the Konkan coast for conservation of biodiversity. The author also reiterates that this scheme should be implemented only after public debate, dissemination of scientific information and public participation in planning and decision making.
