PURPOSE. To evaluate the effectiveness of surgical treatment of secondary glaucoma and to present the clinical features of the postoperative period in a patient with Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS). METHODS. A patient with SWS, choroidal hemangioma and secondary glaucoma was examined and treated (Ahmed valve implantation) at the S.N. Fedorov National Medical Research Center "MNTK "Eye Microsurgery" in Moscow. RESULTS. Hypotension, a decrease in anterior chamber depth, serous choroidal detachment were observed on the first day after surgery on the left eye. Posterior scleral trepanation and injection of viscoelastic into the anterior chamber was performed. On the next day, IOP normalization and complete choroidal attachment were achieved, but macular detachment of neuroepithelium occurred and was successfully treated with injections of glucocorticosteroids. After one month, the retina and choroid were attached, IOP was 16 mm Hg in the left eye without hypotensive drops, visual acuity was 1.0 in both eyes. CONCLUSION. Implantation of the Ahmed valve can be used in the treatment of secondary glaucoma in patients with SWS in order to reduce the IOP and minimize the risks of complications.

Authors: Mungklarat Pacharin , Subun Chantida 
Published: August 2022

Background: Anemia is a major complication of pediatric chronic kidney disease (CKD). Iron deficiency is one of the most common causes of anemia. Conventional markers of iron deficiency anemia, transferrin saturation (TSAT) and serum ferritin could be interfered with various factors. in CKD. Reticulocyte hemoglobin equivalent (Ret-He) is useful for assessing iron status among these patients.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study enrolling children with CKD stage 3 and above was conducted between April and November 2021. Demographic information was also collected. Correlation of Ret-He, anemia indices and markers of iron status were analyzed.
Results: Among 50 participants, we found moderate positive correlations between Hb and Ret-He (r=0.518; p <0.001), Hct and Ret-He (r=0.403; p=0.004), and MCHC and Ret-He (r=0.667; p<0.001); a modest negative correlation between RDW and Ret-He (r=-0.616; p<0.001) and strong correlations between MCV and Ret-He (r=0.747; p<0.001) including MCH and Ret-He (r=0.865; p<0.001). No correlations between TSAT and Ret-He, serum ferritin and Ret-He, TSAT and Hb, or TSAT and Hct were observed. In addition, weak negative correlations between serum ferritin and Hb (r=-0.307; p=0.032) and between serum ferritin and Hct (r=-0.305; p=0.033) were detected. The median RetHe was 28.42 ± 3.37 pg. Twenty-seven participants (54%) met the criteria for iron deficiency anemia (cut-off value <29 pg) of which 2 (4%) had absolute iron deficiency and 9 (18%) had functional iron deficiency defined by conventional markers.
Conclusion: Ret-He is a relevant marker of iron status among pediatric patients with CKD and correlates well with anemia indices which could help identify more patients with iron deficiency.

Published: August 2022

Introduction and aim: Caesarean section (C-section) is one of the commonest surgeries accomplished all over the world, and it has several surgical methods. This work aimed to study the safety and efficacy of cutting diathermy for skin incision during C-section in comparison to surgical scalpel.
Methodology: This was a prospective randomized comparative study that was performed in the Obstetrics and Gynecology department, Al-Azhar university hospitals (New Damietta) in the interval between September 2019 to October 2020.
Results: The visual analogue scale (VAS) score in the diathermy-group was statistically significantly lower as in comparison to the scalpel-group at 2, 6, 12 and 24 h post-operative. Also, there was an increase in the VAS score in the two groups at 2, 6, and 12 hours’ post-operative as in comparison to the first hour post-operative. This difference didn’t achieve a statistically significant difference except at 12 hours (0.005 and 0.001) in the diathermy-group and scalpel-group respectively.
Conclusion: The utilization of diathermy for skin incision in C-section in this work was accompanying with decreased incisional bleeding, incisional period, surgical period and post-operative pains. It had no impact on wound closures (epithelialization) and wasn’t accompanied with any postponement in wounds healing. It was pronounced safely in this work if performed in the suitable way and method with slight or no side-effects.

Published: August 2022

Introduction and Aim: Obesity is a challenging problem for anesthetists. Difficult airway with risk of aspiration and regurgitation increases with obesity. Therefore, the need for effective and safe drug for rapid induction of anesthesia is crucial to ensure fast good intubation condition. The aim of this study is to assess Rocuronium versus Cisatracurium for rapid sequence induction of anesthesia in morbidly obese patients.
Patients and methods: This study included 60 patients with ASA physical status II, aged 21-40 years, BMI 35-40 kg/m2 and scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia. Patients were classified into two equal groups: Group (R): received Rocuronium bromide (Esmeron) in a dose of 0.9 mg/kg (lean body mass) for intubation; Group (C): received Cisatracurium besylate (Nimbex) in a dose of 0.15 mg/kg (LBM) for intubation. Timing of intubation in seconds, intubation score (excellent, good, poor, or inadequate), and hemodynamic variables before induction (baseline), after induction and before injection of Neuro-muscular blocker (NMB), after injection of NMB and before endotracheal intubation and just after intubation were assessed and measured.
Results: There was statistically significant decrease in the timing of intubation in R group (84.0 ± 18.50) as compared to C group (96.0 ± 13.29). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the intubation score among the two groups. There was significant decrease in heart rate and mean arterial blood pressure after the induction of anaesthesia as compared to the baseline in both groups; Heart rate and mean arterial blood pressure changes were comparable among the two groups all of the time.
Conclusion: Rocuronium for rapid sequence induction in morbidly obese patients is associated with faster onset compared with cisatracurium, with comparable intubation condition and hemodynamic variables. We recommend further studies to be conducted for evaluation of both drugs with different doses.

Profesjonskvalifisering for yrkesfaglærere
Authors: Lyckander Rønnaug Haugland , Spetalen Halvor 
Published: August 2022

En ny treårig yrkesfaglærerutdanning ble etablert i Norge i 2000 med mål om å styrke kvalifiseringen av yrkesfaglærere. Denne surveystudien undersøker hvilke oppfatninger tidligere studenter fra både den treårige yrkesfaglærerutdanningen (YFL) og ettårige praktisk-pedagogisk utdanning for yrkesfaglærere (PPU-y) har om hvordan lærerutdanningen har forberedt dem for læreryrket i den videregående skole. Vi analyserer forskjeller mellom lærergruppene og undersøker hva yrkesfaglærere mener bør vektlegges i utdanningene framover. Studien er basert på data innhentet våren 2020 fra yrkesfaglærere i videregående skole (n = 532) utdannet ved OsloMet og NTNU i perioden 2014–2019. Resultatene indikerer at yrkesfaglærerne oppfatter å være godt forberedt på undervisningsrollen, til å reflektere over egen yrkespraksis og til å skape et godt læringsmiljø. De oppfatter å være mindre godt forberedt til å yrkesrette undervisningen i samarbeid med fellesfaglærere, til å støtte ungdom i vanskelige livssituasjoner og til å samarbeide med lokalt arbeidsliv. Yrkesfaglærere fra YFL har høyere gjennomsnittsverdier enn yrkesfaglærere fra PPU-y på alle spørsmål om hvor godt de oppfatter seg forberedt til læreryrket. Videre mener disse respondentene at lærerutdanningen kan bli mer virkelighetsnær og relevant for skolekonteksten. De etterlyser en større didaktisk verktøykasse og mer innhold knyttet til å håndtere elevutfordringer og mangfold. Resultatene bidrar med ny kunnskap om lærerutdanningen for yrkesfag og bidrar til debatten om lærerutdanningenes relevans og videreutvikling.

The Cortex and the Critical Point
Authors: Beggs John M. 
Published: August 2022

How the cerebral cortex operates near a critical phase transition point for optimum performance.
Individual neurons have limited computational powers, but when they work together, it is almost like magic. Firing synchronously and then breaking off to improvise by themselves, they can be paradoxically both independent and interdependent. This happens near the critical point: when neurons are poised between a phase where activity is damped and a phase where it is amplified, where information processing is optimized, and complex emergent activity patterns arise. The claim that neurons in the cortex work best when they operate near the critical point is known as the criticality hypothesis. In this book John Beggs—one of the pioneers of this hypothesis—offers an introduction to the critical point and its relevance to the brain.
Drawing on recent experimental evidence, Beggs first explains the main ideas underlying the criticality hypotheses and emergent phenomena. He then discusses the critical point and its two main consequences—first, scale-free properties that confer optimum information processing; and second, universality, or the idea that complex emergent phenomena, like that seen near the critical point, can be explained by relatively simple models that are applicable across species and scale. Finally, Beggs considers future directions for the field, including research on homeostatic regulation, quasicriticality, and the expansion of the cortex and intelligence. An appendix provides technical material; many chapters include exercises that use freely available code and data sets.
The relationship between the Functional Movement Screen and the Y Balance Test in youth footballers
Authors: Sikora Damian , Linek Pawel 
Published: August 2022

Background
The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) and the Y Balance Test (Y-BT) are screening tools to detect movement deficits and to identify footballers at high risk of injury. If these tools are able to identify athletes with high risk of injury, they should measure the same construct and also be highly correlated.

Objectives
The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between the FMS and Y-BT in youth footballers. The present study also aimed to assess the degree of association between the FMS and Y-BT considering high-injury-risk (FMS <= 14 points and Y-BT <= 89.6%) and low-injury-risk groups (FMS > 14 points and Y-BT > 89.6%).

Method
A sample of 226 healthy athletes (mean age: 14.0 ± 2.3 years) was selected from a football club. The FMS and Y-BT data were collected from all participants. The Y-BT raw data were normalised to the relative length of the lower limbs. Spearman’s correlation was used in the analysis.

Results
For the whole group, there was a moderate correlation (R = 0.41; p < 0.001) between the composite FMS score and composite Y-BT score. The strength of relationships varied from weak to moderate between the FMS subtests and most Y-BT results for each direction. In the high-injury-risk group, there was no correlation (R = 0.11; p = 0.61) between the composite FMS score and composite Y-BT score. For the low-injury-risk group, there was a weak significant correlation (R = 0.27; p < 0.007) between the composite FMS score and composite Y-BT score. Additionally, 56 and 53 athletes were classified to the high-injury-risk group based on the FMS and Y-BT, respectively. Only 23 athletes were classified to the high-risk group by both tests.

Conclusions
Youth footballers showed only weak to moderate correlations between the FMS and the Y-BT. Footballers classified in the high-injury-risk group based on the FMS and Y-BT presented a different relationship between the FMS and Y-BT tasks compared to the low-injury-risk group. The results confirmed that the FMS and Y-BT should not be used interchangeably as they assess different movement deficits in the group of youth football players. The study results may partially suggest that using one of these screening tools cannot successfully predict injury risk in adolescent football players. This justifies the need to use these tests simultaneously to identify possible neuromuscular control deficits in youth footballers.
Analysis of endophyte diversity of Gentiana officinalis among different tissue types and ages and their association with four medicinal secondary metabolites

Published: August 2022

Background
The difference of metabolites in medicinal plants has always been concerned to be influenced by external environmental factors. However, the relationship between endophytes and host metabolites remains unclear.

Methods
In this study, we used 16S and ITS amplicon sequencing to compare endophyte diversity among different tissue types and ages of Gentiana officinalis. Endophyte diversity and abundance was also analyzed in relation to the abundance of four secondary metabolites (Gentiopicroside, Loganic acid, Swertiamarine and Sweroside).

Results
The diversity and richness of G. officinalis endophyte differed as a function of tissue types and ages. Four metabolites of G. officinalis were significantly correlated with the abundance of dominant endophyte genera. The predictive function analysis showed that metabolism was main function of endophytic bacteria in different tissue and year root samples, while saprotroph was dominant trophic modes of endophytic fungi in the different year root samples. The dominant trophic modes of endophytic fungi was saprotroph and pathotroph, and relative abundances differed in the different tissue samples. The results of this study will help to elucidate the plant-microbial interactions and provide key information on the role of endophytes in the production of G.officinalis and its important metabolites.
