Les fêtes des reliques dans les calendriers liturgiques diocésains de la France post-tridentine (1570-1680)
Authors: D’hour Thomas 
Published: May 2022

Les fêtes de reliques inscrites dans les calendriers liturgiques sont des offices particuliers puisqu’ils ne célèbrent un saint qu’à travers un objet. Ce type de fêtes est encadré par la Congrégation des rites qui produit un corpus législatif. Néanmoins, on les retrouve dans l’ensemble des calendriers liturgiques diocésains français tout au long du XVIIe siècle. L’énoncé de ces offices prend plusieurs formes en utilisant un vocabulaire varié, lequel témoigne des diverses tribulations que les reliques ont connues. Si toutes les catégories de saints peuvent être vénérées par les reliques, on constate toutefois que les évêques sont les plus souvent célébrés, suivis par les martyrs. La possession et la célébration d’une relique participent enfin de l’identité du diocèse autour de quelques figures de saints. L’exemple d’Angers avec la dévotion des martyrs de la légion thébéenne montre ainsi la vitalité de ce type de culte par l’acquisition de reliques supplémentaires et l’inscription d’une nouvelle fête au calendrier, renforçant des célébrations déjà existantes.
Les vieux saints dans l’oratorio en Europe au temps de la réforme catholique
Authors: Davy-Rigaux Cécile , Teulade Anne 
Published: May 2022

À travers l’examen d’un vaste corpus, repéré pour cette étude, de plus de trois cents œuvres assimilables à l’oratorio concernant cent dix saints identifiés comme saints des premiers temps, martyrs ou fondateurs du premier millénaire de l’ère chrétienne, il s’agit ici d’identifier, la popularité et la diffusion à travers l’Europe des figures des vieux saints au fil de la chronologie des deux siècles « baroques », et d’observer les occurrences religieuses et contextuelles de leurs apparitions ou célébrations ; enfin, on a tenté de repérer quelques constantes du genre pouvant être mises en lien avec de telles figures, à travers l’analyse du contenu de plusieurs livrets représentatifs. L’association entre ces figures des saints des premiers temps et le genre alors émergent de l’oratorio, ou plus généralement avec les mélodrames spirituels en musique, montre combien ce genre littéraire et musical, dont l’étude souligne les capacités d’adaptation à toutes sortes d’utilisations et d’utilisateurs, a pu constituer à la fois un outil particulièrement efficace et un miroir de la Contre-Réforme, par une contribution directe et en profondeur au dynamisme, au ressourcement et à la consolidation de la Tradition d’un monde catholique « en réforme ».
L’attore necessario: drammaturgia della santità e santità rappresentata
Authors: Majorana Bernadette 
Published: May 2022

Tra ’500 e ’600, l’incremento dei soggetti agiografici per il teatro è l’esito delle coeve innovazioni canonico-pastorali della santità e di quelle della scena postumanistica. Si considera qui l’ambito italiano dei dilettanti dediti alla pratica recitativa, intesa come esercizio formativo e intrattenimento devoto. Il teatro è luogo di attrazione per i sensi, l’immaginazione, gli affetti e, nondimeno, di esperienze regolate : il teatro agiografico vuole far sì che l’esemplarità dell’azione scenica sia rielaborata individualmente da attori e spettatori. Si analizza in questo quadro il rapporto fra testo e rappresentazione mediante l’attore e, in particolare, quanto attestato da un documento diretto (1622), che ricostruisce aspetti della recitazione della tragedia S. Agatha del gesuita O. Scammacca, allestita da un gruppo di accademici. Ne emerge come l’attore sia il centro del progetto formativo e trasformativo assegnato al teatro edificante.
Santi antichi nella Sicilia moderna
Authors: Cabibbo Sara 
Published: May 2022

Il saggio prende in esame la ricostruzione agiografica delle vite e dei culti degli antichi santi siciliani che si sviluppò nel Viceregno spagnolo tra Cinque e Settecento all’ombra delle relazioni fra la Chiesa di Roma e la monarchia degli Austrias, con l’aiuto dei criteri elaborati dalla « nuova scienza dei santi » e del prestigio assunto nell’isola dalla Compagnia del Gesù. Attraverso le vite degli uomini e delle donne che accolsero il primo cristianesimo e di quelli che furono martirizzati in età romana e nel corso delle dominazioni « demoniache », emerge un modello di santità che affonda le sue origini nell’agiografia italo-greca e nella sistematizzazione liturgica operata dai Normani. Il saggio mette inoltre a fuoco l’esistenza di due prospettive – quella pansicula e quella municipalistica – che orientarono la narrazione agiografica.
Microbiology and outcome of pediatric orbital cellulitis in a Tertiary Eye Care Center in Saudi Arabia after the routine administration of Haemophilus influenzae Type B vaccine
Authors: Alsulaiman Hamad M. , Al-Faky Yasser 
Published: May 2022

PURPOSE:
To evaluate the incidence of pediatric Haemophilus influenzae related orbital cellulitis after the routine administration of the H. influenzae vaccine in Saudi Arabia and to identify the most common pathogens, predisposing factors, related complications, and the need for surgical intervention.

METHODS:
A retrospective chart review was performed of patients with a discharge diagnosis of orbital cellulitis who presented to the King Abdul Aziz University Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Saudi children born between 2000 and 2016 were included.

RESULTS:
Thirty-one cases were included and 8 had positive cultures. No cases of H. influenzae were found. Of all the positive culture, the most common pathogens isolated were Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae and group A Streptococcus in 3 cases (37.5%), 2 cases (25%) and 2 cases (25%). The most common predisposing factor was sinusitis in 90.3% of cases. Sixteen patients (51.6%) developed complications. Fifteen patients (48.3%) developed subperiosteal abscesses, 1 patient (3.22%) developed a lid abscess, 2 patients (6.45%) developed recurrent orbital cellulitis, and 1 patient (3.22%) developed persistent strabismus. Only 10 (31.25%) patients underwent surgical intervention during admission.

CONCLUSION:
The vaccine seems to be effective at eliminating the orbital cellulitis potentially related to H. influenzae. The most common current pathogens were Gram-positive Staphylococcus and Streptococcus species. Sinusitis remains the most common cause of orbital cellulitis in children. In select cases, medical treatment can resolve the infections however, close observation is warranted.
Supracondylar Fracture of Humerus
Authors: Easwar T. R. , Stephen Manesh 
Published: May 2022

Introduction:
Supracondylar Fracture of Humerus is one of the most common fractures in children. Good results can be obtained in the majority of typical fracture patterns with proper and prompt care. In India, the delay in presentation is a key factor in treatment decision making. This could be due to poor awareness, prior treatment with native bone setters or other care providers.

Materials and Methods:
Typical Extension type Supracondylar Fracture of Humerus is reviewed here in this article with appropriate current evidence of care. Literature review of the delayed presenting ones and their results were also listed and discussed.

Conclusion:
It has been proven that good results can be obtained in cases with delay in presentation. This is especially important in the Indian scenario where some delay in presentation can be expected. Emergency reduction and fixation is not necessary unless there is a neurovascular compromise, Fixation patterns for the Gartland Type I to Type III are discussed. The Type IV pattern of fracture with inherent instability of reduction has to be watched for and appropriately stabilised. Radiological landmarks of Bauman's angle, Anterior Humeral Line, which determine whether reduction is satisfactory are discussed in the article.
Clinicomycological Profile of Pediatric Dermatophytoses
Authors: Ray Arunima , Singh Bhabani STP , Kar Bikash Ranjan 
Published: May 2022

Background/Objectives:
There has been a recent explosion in the incidence of dermatophytic infections globally, especially in tropical countries including India. This increase is associated with a change in the clinical pattern and mycological profile with poor response to treatment, in adults and children. Limited studies in India have focused on pediatric dermatophytoses. Our study’s primary objective was to assess the clinicomycological profile of pediatric dermatophytosis in our region and secondarily to understand the association of lifestyle factors with poor response to treatment.

Methods:
This was an observational study including children ≤16 years of age, clinically diagnosed with tinea. Clinical and lifestyle data regarding site, affected surface area, duration of infection, previous treatment, possible sources of infection, overcrowding, and bathing practices were collected. Samples were collected for potassium hydroxide mount and fungal culture.

Results:
A total of 183 children participated in our study. The most common diagnosis was tinea corporis. Tinea cruris was more frequent in preadolescents, where males were more affected. Positive associations were seen between increased duration of infection, increased household infection, infection among playmates, irregular bathing, and use of steroid creams. The most common organism isolated was Trichophyton mentagrophytes/interdigitale (55.19%) followed by Trichophyton rubrum (14.75%).

Conclusions:
There is a change in the mycological profile of pediatric dermatophytosis with an increase in Trichophyton mentagrophytes/interdigitale infection. Important sources of infection in children must be identified in chronic and recurrent cases. Misinformed and ignorant use of steroid creams is an important reason for recurrent infection.

Published: May 2022

Introduction:
Presently the leprosy program has no defined surveillance protocols for patients who complete the fixed duration multidrug therapy and are released from treatment (RFT). Hence, the information about the post-RFT events in these patients is sparse and qualitative and quantitative data regarding their health care requirements is missing. During the DermLep survey carried out by the Indian Association of Dermatologists,Venereologists and Leprologists (IADVL), a number of patients presented to dermatologists during the post RFT period for a variety of symptoms. This paper analyses the events in these patients during the post RFT period.

Results:
Out of a total of 3701 leprosy patients who presented to 201 dermatologists across India during the DermLep survey, 708 (26.2%) were in the post RFT period (488 males; 220 females). Of these, 21% were PB and 79% MB patients as per their treatment records. Majority were in the age group of 31-59 years (55.5%); however, a significant proportion of them (20.7%) were elderly (>60 years). Majority of the patients (45.5%) presented within the first year of RFT with variable symptoms; 28% were between 1-5 years, 5.5% between 5-10 years; and 11.0% presented more than 10 years after RFT. Most common presenting complaint being persistent skin lesions as perceived by patients in 21.2%, followed by neuritis in 14.5%; trophic ulcers in 13.8%; deformities in 67 (11.8%); lepra reactions in 66 (11.6%); and recurrence of original symptoms in 6.7%.

Conclusion:
The DermLep Survey highlights the importance of ‘post RFT’ patients as an important subset of leprosy patients who visit dermatologists for various health related issues. The most common complaints in this subset were active/persistent skin lesions, lepra reactions and neuritis. In these patients, who are a sub-group of ‘persons affected with leprosy’ the disease related issues can persist for many years post RFT. Hence, it is important to provide services in the programme to monitor and manage these complications for the prevention of impairments, disability and the related social issues.
Clinical Assessment for Distal Radioulnar Joint Instability in Patients with Distal End Radius Fracture
Authors: Kakkar Vinay , Sancheti Mukesh 
Published: May 2022

Background:
Distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability is an important cause of ulnar-sided wrist pain in distal radius fractures. By this study, it was tried to identify clinical factors associated with DRUJ instability in distal radius fractures.

Materials and Methods:
We prospectively reviewed all 87 patients who underwent surgery for unstable, unilateral distal radius fractures in a tertiary trauma center. Assessment of DRUJ instability was examined preoperatively, during surgery, and immediate postoperatively. Patients with clinical DRUJ instability were followed up at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months, with clinical assessment of the DRUJ instability whether symptomatic or not.

Results:
Preoperative DRUJ instability was found in 23 patients as checked by the distal ulna ballottement test. Of these 23 patients, postoperative DRUJ instability was found in 9 patients and persisted as symptomatic DRUJ instability with ulnar-sided wrist pain till the last follow-up.

Conclusion:
Every distal radius fracture should be seen with the suspicion of associated DRUJ instability and the stability of DRUJ be thoroughly checked intraoperatively and postoperatively for better wrist function and better outcome after the union of distal radius fracture.

Published: May 2022

Aims:
To investigate self-perceived stress level of senior dental students in Saudi Arabia during different fixed prosthodontics procedures. Also, to explore the possible stress-related factors during each procedure.

Settings and Design:
A structured, close-ended, and open-ended, anonymous questionnaire was distributed in a website format to senior dental students of 19 dental schools in Saudi Arabia.

Materials and Methods:
Students were asked to rate the level of stress they feel during different fixed prosthodontics procedures on a scale from 0 to 10. They were also asked to rate the adequacy of their preclinical training in these procedures and how many times they have performed each of the procedures clinically.

Statistical Analysis Used:
Descriptive statistics were presented in means, percentages, and standard deviation and inferential statistics were performed using One-way ANOVA, independent t-test and Pearson’s correlation.

Results:
About 423 students answered the questionnaire, in which 228 (54%) were females and 195 (46%) were males. Vital tooth preparation (5.27 ± 2.459) and pos space preparation (5.13 ± 2.766) were rated as the most stressful procedures (P < 0.05). Fear of error or mishaps was the most reported reason for stress during these two procedures. Pearson’s correlation showed significant but weak negative correlation between stress scores and number of times the student has performed the procedure (P < 0.05). Students who believe that they had adequate preclinical training reported significantly lower stress scores (P < 0.05).

Conclusion:
Self-perceived stress among dental students is related to the type of procedure they perform in the clinic and how frequent they have been exposed to it during their preclinical training.

Authors: Alhomayani Faisal K. , Alsukhayri Doha A. , Alnemari Sara M. , Al-thubaiti Shahad W. , Alosaimi Miad M. , Alzahrani Khames T. 
Published: May 2022

Background:
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) contains deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). It is a disabling circumstance with a high probability of recurrence and doubtlessly deadly. VTE is a significant public health issue affecting thousands of patients globally and is accountable for a high number of hospitalizations annually.

Methods:
A total of 1661 Saudis were surveyed in a cross-sectional observational study. A questionnaire that has already been designed was used to gather information about sociodemographic characters, knowledge about DVT, risk factors, symptoms, complications, relation to patient’s activity, the seriousness of DVT leading to death, and symptoms of PE.

Result:
Approximately 45.5% among participants had prior awareness of DVT. Overweight and long-term travel was the most well-known risk factors. Most of the participants (60%) were aware that DVT occurs when a patient spends most of their time in bed relaxing, the most frequent clinical manifestations were pain and discomfort (97.8%) and local leg pain (73.8%). 45.3% of the participants knew DVT can result in mortality, 36.4% knew more than one pulmonary embolism characteristic, 35%, and 12.6% were aware that post-coagulation syndrome and pulmonary embolism are problems. 12% had a better understanding of DVT and 79% had poor knowledge. Participants who were above 66 years had a university degree, worked in a health specialty, knew about DVT, and received such information from their studies as medical students had a much higher mean knowledge score on DVT than others.

Conclusion:
Poor knowledge necessitates community education programs about risk factors, signs and symptoms, and sequelae of DVT.

Authors: Kumari Archana , Anand Shikha , Vidyarthi Anubha 
Published: May 2022

Aim:
This study aims to describe the clinical characteristics, maternal and neonatal outcome of pregnancies complicated with COVID-19 infection.

Methods:
This is a retrospective, single center, observational study conducted on all COVID-19 positive pregnant women who were admitted in our institution from 1st April 2020 to 30th November 2020. During the study period, a total of 201 pregnant and postpartum women with COVID-19 infection confirmed by RT-PCR test, regardless of their symptoms, were admitted and included in the study. Data were collected from hospital records about the demographic profile, clinical characteristics, maternal and neonatal outcomes.

Results:
The mean age was 26 years (SD = 5.21). Majority patients (71.6%) were asymptomatic and 22.3% had mild symptoms. Only 4 (1.99%) women had severe COVID pneumonia. Majority (75.62%) were admitted in 3rd trimester. Cesarean section rate in COVID-19 infected pregnant women was 53.8%, which was almost similar to 52.8% rate in COVID-19 negative pregnant population. Incidence of preterm birth was 11%. Most neonate were asymptomatic and only 2 of them tested positive on testing within 48 h of birth.

Conclusion:
There is no major effect of COVID-19 infection during pregnancy on maternal and neonatal outcome. The incidence of preterm birth and cesarean section is similar to COVID-19 negative pregnant population.
Prevalence of anaemia and associated factors among antenatal women in rural Kozhikode, Kerala
Authors: Nair Meera S. , Raphael Lucy , Chandran Priya 
Published: May 2022

Context:
Anemia in pregnancy is a significant public health concern with detrimental aftereffects on maternal and fetal well-being universally, especially in developing countries like India.

Aims:
To estimate the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women in rural areas of Kozhikode by hemoglobin estimation and to study the selected factors associated with anemia.

Settings and Design:
A cross-sectional study was conducted among 295 antenatal women in all three trimesters residing in six selected panchayats of Kozhikode district from July 2016 to March 2017.

Materials and Methods:
The cluster sampling method was followed. Data were obtained from antenatal women, applying a pretested semi-structured questionnaire. Hemoglobin estimation was done using the Humacount 30TS automated hematology analyzer.

Statistical Analysis Used:
Data were analyzed using SPSS 18 software.

Results:
The prevalence of anemia was 40%. Of this, 30.5% had mild anemia and 9.5% had moderate anemia. There were no cases of severe anemia. The prevalence was more in the second trimester. Factors such as excess menstrual blood loss prior to present pregnancy, early age at first delivery, trimester, and parity were found to be significantly associated with anemia.

Conclusion:
Anemia continues to be a serious public health problem. Health system should pay more attention on different factors that contribute to anemia, and planners should formulate an apt policy and implement necessary changes in existing programs.

Authors: Agarwal Prerana , Tayal Suryadev , Gautum Ankur 
Published: May 2022

Aim and Objective:
To compare the efficacy and safety of brinzolamide1% and timolol0.5% fixed combination eye drops versus dorzolamide2% and timolol0.5% fixed combination eye drops in the treatment of primary open-angle glaucoma

Design:
Prospective, randomized, comparative, interventional study

Setting:
Tertiary eye care centre.

Material and Method:
The present study was a comparative study carried out on patients visiting OPD of Ophthalmology Department and diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma. Group 1 (n-30 BT) received brinzolamide1% and timolol0.5% fixed combination eye drops, and Group 2 (N-30 DT) patients received dorzolamide2% and timolol0.5% fixed combination eye drops. A complete ophthalmic examination was performed, including Goldmann applanation tonometry. IOP was measured twice daily (9 AM and 4 PM). The patients were evaluated at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks. IOP was measured at follow-up. Side effects and tolerability of both drugs were assessed, and patient preference for drugs was noted

Results:
Mean reduction in morning IOP was significantly more in Group 1 than in Group 2 at 8 weeks and 12 weeks (p < 0.05). Mean reduction in evening IOP was significantly more in Group 1 than in Group 2 at all follow-ups (p < 0.05)

Conclusion:
Brinzolamide1% + timolol0.5% fixed drug combination is more preferred and effective in lowering IOP than dorzolamide2% + timolol0.5% fixed drug combination in patients of primary open-angle glaucoma.
Is COVID-19 mortality associated with test number?
Authors: Iwata Kentaro , Miyakoshi Chisato 
Published: May 2022

Introduction:
With the ongoing pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), there is an argument on whether we should increase the number of testing for the coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) to mitigate the epidemic in a given country. Therefore, we investigated the correlation between testing number and mortality to evaluate the hypothesis.

Methods:
Data on an open-access database of COVID-19 was retrieved. Member countries of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), BRICs nations (Brazil, Russia, India, and China), and Taiwan were included in the analysis, but 2 countries were removed as outliers.

Results:
There was a weak, positive correlation between mortality and testing (r = 0.34, P = 0.03). On regression analysis, there was a positive slope but the coefficient was very small (0.00064).

Conclusions:
We found a very small positive correlation between testing number and mortality for COVID-19.
