Published: August 2022

Background:
Rathke’s cleft cysts (RCCs) are common benign sellar or suprasellar lesions. The aim of this study is to report our experience on the management of 27 RCC cases.

Methods:
We retrospectively analyzed a series of 27 patients with symptomatic RCC who were referred to our department between January 2016 and January 2020. Data regarding patients’ demographics, clinical evaluations, laboratory and neuroimaging findings, pathologic records, surgical treatment, and complications were extracted from our electronic database. All patients underwent RCC removal through a direct endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal (EETS) approach, except for two cases.

Results:
Data of 27 patients (3 men and 24 women; mean age: 38 years) with symptomatic RCC were reviewed. The most common presenting symptom was headache, occurring in 20 (74.0%) patients. In 16 (59.2%) cases, the tumor was primarily located in the sella turcica. Nine (33.3%) cases exhibited a secondary suprasellar extension.

Conclusion:
Our experience with RCC patients showed that EETS is a safe method of treatment, with minimal recurrence.

Published: August 2022

Background:
With the drastically aging population in the U.S., chronic subdural hematomas (cSDHs) are projected to represent the most common neurosurgical diagnosis requiring treatment within the next two decades. There is lack of contemporary outcome data in patients treated for nontraumatic and nonacute subdural hematoma. We aim to portray current mortality rates, complication rates, length of stay, and costs associated with inpatient cSDH care.

Methods:
The Premier Health-care Database, Premier Inc., Charlotte/NC was queried for encounters October 2016–December 2020 with the ICD-10 diagnoses of nontraumatic nonacute subdural hematoma as the principal diagnosis among patients age ≥40 years. Per database in-hospital mortality is defined as mortality in an inpatient who is not discharged. Complications represent medical conditions not present on admission that affects mortality, length of stay, and costs within the database.

Results:
The query identified 14,136 inpatient encounters. Between October 2016 and December 2020, in-hospital mortality rates averaged 10.9% in the medical group (MG) and 3.6% in the surgical group (SG) (P < 0.001). Complication rates averaged between 8.9 % in the MG and 19.9% in the SG (P < 0.001). LOS averaged 3.0 days in the MG and 5.7 days in the SG (P < 0.001). Total costs averaged $ 10,233 in the MG and $ 26,658 in the SG.

Conclusion:
The standardized outcomes presented represent an objective benchmark of contemporary cSDH treatment outcomes in the U.S. With the projected substantial increase of cSDH cases within the next decades, new treatment strategies such as middle meningeal embolization need to be explored and outperform current outcome metrics.

Published: August 2022

Cinnamomum sintoc Blume is an endangered species experiencing an ongoing decline due to overharvesting; in- and ex-situ conservation efforts are urgently needed to ensure its survival. We performed a detailed assessment of the flowering and fruiting phenology of C. sintoc in a lowland forest in West Java, Indonesia. We aimed to relate the duration of each phenological phase to environmental factors including elevation, humidity, temperature, and slope, as well as the orientation of the flowers. A total of 30 trees were sampled from three elevation ranges (500–700, 700–900, and 900–1,100 m). We found that C. sintoc requires approximately 40 days to complete flowering and an additional 82 days to produce mature fruit. The period from flower initiation to fruit ripening spans 4 months, from late July to early November. Flowers that are east-facing developed mature fruit more rapidly than those facing other directions, and the shortest flowering and fruiting phenological period was observed for east-facing flowers at 700–900 m. These results provide a baseline for studying phenological shifts in C. sintoc, and could inform seed harvesting efforts for conservation projects in the study area of Gunung Cermai National Park.

Published: August 2022

The interaction of ionizing radiation with human body, either from external sources (i.e. outside the body) or from internal contamination of the body by radioactive substances, leads to biological effects which may later show up as clinical symptoms. The nature and severity of these symptoms and the time at which they appear depend on the amount of radiation absorbed and the rate at which it is received. This study aimed at assessing the Health Effects of Radiation Exposure to Human Sensitive Organs across Some Selected Mining Sites of Plateau State Nigeria. Finding of this study have revealed that the mean Dorgan values for the lungs, ovaries, bone marrow, testes, kidney, liver and whole body for different mining points of Plateau State are 0.29, 0.26, 0.31, 0.36, 0.28, 0.21 and 0.30 mSv/y respectively. From the findings presented, it can be concluded that the background radiation in Plateau State is not an issue of health concern in regards to sensitive organs and may not course immediate health effect except when accumulated over long period of time which may cause cancer to the indoor members on approximately seventy years of exposure.

Authors: Navarro Liliana Evelin , Levin Laura , Rosenfeldt Sonia 
Published: August 2022

Introducción y objetivos: La contaminación ambiental podría afectar el estado sanitario del arbolado y a la biodiversidad de microorganismos. Fraxinus pennsylvanica es uno de los árboles más frecuentes en la Ciudad de Buenos Aires.
Los objetivos del trabajo fueron: relevar los micromicetes presentes en la corteza y madera de fresno, determinar si los micromicetes hallados con mayor frecuencia en la corteza producen enzimas lignocelulolíticas, describir los principales cambios anatómicos generados en la madera, y evaluar su tolerancia a metales pesados (Cu y Pb).
M&M: Se recolectaron trozos de corteza y madera en un gradiente urbano-periurbano en el AMBA. Se evaluó el deterioro causado in vitro en la madera por los micromicetes aislados con mayor frecuencia. Se determinó la pérdida de peso, se analizaron los cambios anatómicos. Se determinó la producción de enzimas lignocelulolíticas y tolerancia al Cu y Pb.
Resultados: Diplodia sp., Fusicoccum sp. y Sordaria sp. fueron los micromicetes detectados con mayor frecuencia en corteza, mientras que Alternaria sp., Diplodia sp. y Phialophora sp. se aislaron de madera. Ninguno causó síntomas de pudrición blanda, ni pérdidas importantes en el peso seco de la madera (3-5% luego de 6 meses), ni cambios microanatómicos. Se detectó actividad celulolítica en todos los micromicetes evaluados. Todos fueron capaces de crecer en 250 mg/Kg de Cu o 1000 mg/Kg de Pb.
Conclusiones: Los micromicetes presentes en la corteza no afectarían el estado sanitario del arbolado. Su tolerancia a altas concentraciones de metales pesados sugiere potencialidad como biomonitores de contaminación ambiental.

Published: August 2022

The article explores European experience in optimisation of higher education institutions network, provides theoretical background for the above process and identifies its key features, as well as formulates practical recommendations for implementation of Ukraine’s higher education sector optimisation. The relevance of this research is conditioned by ongoing higher education reform, its strategic objectives, developments triggered by russian federation aggression, and objectives of post-war revival of Ukraine. The article is rooted in the experience and optimisation practices of 9 European countries: Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Ireland, Norway, Sweden and United Kingdom and identifies key specific features of higher education institutions network optimization in each of the above countries. The analysis of theoretical texts by foreign and domestic scholars, practical cases, analytical reports dedicated to university mergers and restructuring of the landscape of national higher education systems allowed to identify: terminology on the research topic (namely: amalgamations, mergers, concentration processes, clusters, alliances, collaborations, optimization of higher education institutions network); pre-conditions that trigger optimisation process (in the format of 5 pairs “reason — goal”); trends and approaches to optimisation implementation (8 trends including duration; diversification; dominance of vertical heterogenous amalgamations; pairing; positioning on higher education international arena; combination of bottom-up and top-down approaches; supporting role of the state; partnership and trust); factors that ensure success of optimisation efforts (presented in the form of three-level segmented pyramid with value, system and institutional dimensions). Practical recommendations formulated by the authors are the outcomes of adaptation of prominent European experience — its theoretical and practical domains — to the priorities, challenges and specific characteristics pertinent to the development of Ukraine’s higher educations.

Identification of Cervical Epidural Space: A Comparison Study between Contrast Spread and Loss of Resistance Techniques
Authors: Perper Yakov 
Published: August 2022

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Early epidural space identification is critical to the efficacy and safety of cervical epidural steroid injections (CESI). Currently, the accepted method for epidural space recognition is the loss of resistance technique (LORT). I hypothesized that the contrast spread technique might recognize epidural space concurrently with or sooner than LORT and that smaller needles might be employed with the fluoroscopy only method but not with LORT. To test my hypotheses, I conducted a comparison study.

METHODS: The study participants were patients from my practice with a clinical diagnosis of cervical radiculitis divided into two groups of 20 each, who underwent CESI with either an 18G or a 25G Tuohy needle. All CESIs were performed utilizing the fluoroscopy only method. Then, LOR was tested using an Epidrum device that was observed for 30 seconds; if the Epidrum deflated, the result was positive.

RESULTS: LOR was positive in 12 out of 20 patients in the 18G group and 2 out of 20 in the 25G group. The 95% confidence interval test for proportion revealed a statistically significantly lower rate for epidural space detection by LORT in both groups: [0.385, 0.815] in the 18G and

[-0.031, 0.231] in the 25G group. Statistical significance of the difference between groups in LOR accuracy rate (60% vs. 10%) was confirmed by z-test for independent proportions: z = 3.31 (p < 0.001), Cohen’s h = 1.13.

CONCLUSION: Fluoroscopy only method might be a safer alternative to LORT as it employs a different concept, might recognize epidural space sooner, and favors smaller needles.
