Published: February 2022

BackgroundPositive psychosocial factors can play an important role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Among them, psychological resilience (PR) is defined as the capacity of responding positively to stressful events. Our aim was to assess whether PR is associated with CVD or metabolic disturbances through a systematic review.MethodsWe gathered articles from PubMed, Web of Science, PsycInfo, and Google Scholar up to October 28, 2021. We included articles that were in English, were observational, and had PR examined as exposure. The CVD outcomes were either clinical or metabolic outcomes (i.e., dyslipidemia, obesity, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, and diabetes).ResultsOur literature search identified 3,800 studies, of which 17 met the inclusion criteria. Of them, seven were longitudinal and 10 cross-sectional, and 13 were on adults and four on children. The exposure assessment was heterogeneous, i.e., 12 studies used different kinds of self-administered questionnaires and five used interviews with a psychologist. Regarding outcomes, five studies investigated CVD, seven obesity, one metabolic syndrome, two hypertension, four dyslipidemia, and four diabetes. In longitudinal studies, PR was found to have an inverse association with included outcomes in five studies from the Swedish military conscription cohort but had no association with CVD in a study on African-American women and was associated with slower progression of diabetes in a general population. The cross-sectional studies showed that the prevalence of disease was not associated with PR in many cases but the progression of disease was associated with PR.ConclusionPR seems to have a possibly favorable association with CVD and metabolic disturbances that differs according to the type of outcome and population. Our study limitations are given by the small number of studies available and the heterogeneity in PR measurement.Systematic Review Registration[https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/display_record.php?RecordID=237109], identifier [CRD42021237109].

Published: February 2022

BackgroundTourette syndrome (TS) is a childhood-onset neuropsychiatric disorder that has a unique status of a quintessentially neuropsychiatric condition at the interface of neurology (movement disorder) and psychiatry (behavioral/emotional condition). However, the behavioral and emotional profile has seemed to be neglected in the literature thus far. This study aimed to investigate the behavioral and emotional profile of TS.MethodsA total of 124 patients aged 6–16 years with TS were included in this study, including age- and sex-matched health control, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and major depressive disorder (MDD) groups. The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) was used to screen the behavioral and emotional profile of the TS and other compared groups. The Yale Global Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS) was used to assess TS tic severity. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to investigate the difference between the TS and other compared groups.ResultsThe results showed that the eight factors of the CBCL had no association with motor tics, vocal tics, or tic severity (p &gt; 0.05). However, positive correlations were identified between functional impairments (subscales of YGTSS) and thought problems (TP) and rule-breaking behavior (RBB). Based on the eight-factor profile of the CBCL, TS showed a similar profile to MDD but different from ADHD and OCD, which showed similar profiles.ConclusionsBased on the assessment of the CBCL of TS, it was found that “pure” TS might show fewer behavioral and emotional problems than OCD, ADHD, and MDD. Similar behavioral and emotional profiles were identified between TS and MDD, but not OCD and ADHD. More attention needs to be paid to the thought problems and rule break problems in the CBCL in the screening stage, which might have a potential influence on the functional impairments of TS.

Published: February 2022

BackgroundIn Côte d'Ivoire, the health system remains poorly accessible and inefficient, particularly in rural areas. Malaria, tuberculosis and HIV remain a major concern. Tasks shifting to Community Health Workers (CHWs) in rural areas has been proposed in terms of responses and has shown encouraging results with some limitations. Objective is therefore to develop and implement, in a health district, at the level of a neighborhood, a sub-prefecture, two villages and two camps, innovative strategies aimed at improving the integration of HIV, malaria and tuberculosis prevention and care into the health system at the community level through CHWs.MethodsIntroduce innovations to be integrated into the national system: (i) Selection and strengthening of the capacities of CHWs to provide care for the three diseases through home visits [Information Education and Counseling/Communication for Behavior Change (IEC/CBC)], simple malaria screening and management, referral of suspected tuberculosis cases and Directly Observed Treatment, short-course (DOTS), screening, prophylaxis and distribution of antiretrovirals (ARVs) to HIV-infected patients; (ii) monthly animation of village health committees by target groups (women of childbearing age, children under 5 years old, young adolescents); (iii) use of an application and tablets for data collection.DiscussionThis innovative project integrates new activities such as ARV distribution by CHWs, management of pre-exposure prophylaxis in rural areas and electronic data capture by communities. Several lessons can be learned on the relevance of the role and activities to be carried out by these CHWs in the fight against these three diseases.

Published: February 2022

The purpose of this study is to scrutinize the coupled hydroaeroelastic problem for a TLP design of a floating structure consisting of multiple vertical truncated cylinders which support a 10 MW wind turbine (WT). The platform is exposed to the combined effects of water waves and wind loading. The motions of the platform are examined for seven different directions of the incident waves. The hydrodynamic problem was solved analytically by combining the physical idea of multiple scattering and the method of matched axisymmetric eigenfunction expansions in order to obtain analytical representations of the velocity potential around the cylindrical members of the platform, while the contribution of the WT is considered within the six degrees of motion of the floater. Numerical results are initially presented for the exciting forces acting on the platform, the added masses, and the hydrodynamic damping coefficients, as well as the RAOs of the platform’s motions. Furthermore, the shear forces and bending moments are calculated at the point where the WT is assembled with the floater. Finally, results for the total mooring forces are given.

В статье представлены результаты исследования, проведенного на базе МЧУП «Центр репродуктивной медицины» (Минск, Беларусь), включившего в себя 179 женщин с эндометриоз-ассоциированным бесплодием, которые обратились для проведения экстракорпорального оплодотворения в 2016–2019 гг. Сформировано 2 исследуемые группы: группа 1 – 88 женщин с эндометриоидными кистами яичников (II стадия эндометриоза), которым процедура ЭКО проводилась без предшествующего хирургического лечения; группа 2 – 91 женщина после хирургического лечения по поводу эндометриоидных кист в анамнезе, обратившаяся для проведения ЭКО. Установлено, что хирургическое лечение эндометриоидных кист яичников перед проведением ЭКО ассоциировано со статистически достоверным снижением овариального резерва (концентрация АМГ до хирургического вмешательства – 3,5 [3,4; 5,3] нг/мл, после – 1,6 [0,7; 3,4] нг/мл; U=1323,0; р<0,001), возрастанием суммарной дозы гонадотропинов (2325 [1612,5; 2400] МЕ, против 1275 [1106,3; 1731,3] МЕ; U=1563,5, p<0,001) идлительности гормональной стимуляции (9,89±1,02 дня в сравнении с 8,77±1,11 дня; U=1506,5, p<0,001); снижением количества зрелых фолликулов на момент трансвагинальной пункции, количества полученных ооцитов, эмбрионов и бластоцист; снижением вероятности наступления беременности: 34% против 52,3% (χ2=6,05; p=0,014). Таким образом, при эндометриоз-ассоциированном бесплодии и наличии эндометриоидных кист яичников, соответствующих II стадии овариального эндометриоза, целесообразно не откладывать программы экстракорпорального оплодотворения и не проводить предварительное хирургическое лечение, так как это может оказывать выраженное негативное влияние на овариальный резерв и значительно снижать вероятность успешного применения программ ЭКО.
This article presents the results of the research performed in “Center of Reproductive Medicine” (Minsk, Belarus), which included 179 women with endometriosis-associated infertility that underwent in vitro fertilization in 2016-2019. Two groups were formed: Group 1 (n=88) – women with endometriomas corresponding to Stage II ovarian endometriosis without prior surgical treatment; Group 2 (n=91) – women after surgical treatment for ovarian endometriosis. We established that surgical treatment of endometriomas prior to IVF is associated with statistically significant ovarian reserve decrease (AMH before surgery – 3,5 [3,4; 5,3] ng/ml, after – 1,6 [0,7; 3,4] ng/ml; U=1323,0;р<0,001); increase in total gonadotropin dose (2325 [1612,5; 2400] IU versus 1275 [1106,3; 1731,3] IU; U=1563,5, p<0,001); increased ovarian stimulation duration (9,89±1,02 versus 8,77±1,11 days; U=1506,5, p<0,001); decreased number of follicles, obtained mature oocytes, embryos and blastocysts; decreased pregnancy rate – 34% versus 52,3% (χ2=6,05; p=0,014). Therefore, it is safe to assume that infertile women with Stage II ovarian endometriosis should be recommended not to postpone IVF procedures for prior surgical treatment in order to maximize IVF efficacy.

Published: February 2022

Миофасциальный болевой синдром является одной из самых частых причин обращений пациентов к неврологу. Причинами его возникновения могут быть многие факторы, начиная от механической травмы или перенапряжения мышц и фасций, заканчивая эмоционально-психическим перенапряжением. Основными методами лечения являются медикаментозная терапия и физиотерапия, которые в большинстве случаев малоэффективны. Если рассматривать альтернативные методы лечения, то зачастую врач первичного звена не владеет дополнительными навыками работы с данным болевым синдромом, достаточными для его быстрого разрешения, что ведет к затягиванию временной нетрудоспособности и хронизации болевого синдрома. Учитывая это, в статье описаны новый метод лечения миофасциального болевого синдрома с применением полуавтоматического противоболевого аппарата – 01 и клинический пример, подтверждающий его эффективность. Данный метод позволит расширить арсенал врача первичного звена в борьбе с миофасциальным болевым синдромом, что позволит существенно сократить сроки временной нетрудоспособности и возврата пациента к его обычной социально-бытовой активности.
Myofascial pain syndrome is one of the most common reasons for patients to consult a neurologist. Many factors can cause it, ranging from mechanical injury or overexertion of muscles and fascia to emotional and mental stress. The main methods of treatment are drug therapy and physical therapy, which in most cases is not very effective. If we consider alternative methods of treatment, then often the primary care physician does not possess additional skills for dealing with this pain syndrome sufficient for its rapid resolution, which leads to prolongation of temporary disability andchronicity of the pain syndrome. Taking this into account, the article describes a new method of treatment of myofascial pain syndrome with the use of a semi-automatic analgesic device – 01 and a clinical example confirming its effectiveness. This method will expand the arsenal of the primary care physician in the fight against myofascial pain syndrome, which will significantly reduce the period of temporary disability and the patient’s return to their normal social activity.

Published: February 2022

В статье обсуждается положение дел в области распространенности, полноты выявляемости, а также ситуации с лечением деменции при болезни Альцгеймера в Республике Беларусь. Проанализированы изменения, происходящие в этой области в течение последнего десятилетия – за 2010–2019 годы. Показано, что ситуация хотя и изменяется к лучшему, но и сегодня еще далека от желаемой. Обсуждаются возможные причины низкой выявляемости этой патологии, сохраняющегося перекоса в сторону диагностики сосудистой деменции и явно недостаточного удельного веса пациентов с болезнью Альцгеймера, получающих своевременное лечение.
The present situation in the area of prevalence, completeness of recognition, examination, and the situation with pharmacological treatment of Alzheimer´s disease in Belarus, as well as some alterations during the recent decade (2010–2019), are discussed in the article. Possible causes of the poor recognition, traditional and still remaining distortion towards diagnostics of vascular dementia, and still insufficient proportion of patients who start pharmacological treatment at the early stage of the disease are also discussed.
Evidence from Disrupted Halo Dwarfs that r-process Enrichment via Neutron Star Mergers is Delayed by ≳500 Myr

Abstract
The astrophysical origins of r-process elements remain elusive. Neutron star mergers (NSMs) and special classes of core-collapse supernovae (rCCSNe) are leading candidates. Due to these channels’ distinct characteristic timescales (rCCSNe: prompt, NSMs: delayed), measuring r-process enrichment in galaxies of similar mass but differing star formation durations might prove informative. Two recently discovered disrupted dwarfs in the Milky Way’s stellar halo, Kraken and Gaia-Sausage Enceladus (GSE), afford precisely this opportunity: Both have M
⋆ ≈ 108
M
⊙ but differing star formation durations of ≈2 Gyr and ≈3.6 Gyr. Here we present R ≈ 50,000 Magellan/MIKE spectroscopy for 31 stars from these systems, detecting the r-process element Eu in all stars. Stars from both systems have similar [Mg/H] ≈ −1, but Kraken has a median [Eu/Mg] ≈ −0.1 while GSE has an elevated [Eu/Mg] ≈ 0.2. With simple models, we argue NSM enrichment must be delayed by 500–1000 Myr to produce this difference. rCCSNe must also contribute, especially at early epochs, otherwise stars formed during the delay period would be Eu free. In this picture, rCCSNe account for ≈50% of the Eu in Kraken, ≈25% in GSE, and ≈15% in dwarfs with extended star formation durations like Sagittarius. The inferred delay time for NSM enrichment is 10×–100× longer than merger delay times from stellar population synthesis—this is not necessarily surprising because the enrichment delay includes time taken for NSM ejecta to be incorporated into subsequent generations of stars. For example, this may be due to natal kicks that result in r-enriched material deposited far from star-forming gas, which then takes ≈108–109 yr to cool in these galaxies.
Primary Intracapsular Polypseudophakia With Posterior Capsulotomy Optic Capture in a Nanophthalmic Eye
Authors: Volante Vincent , Zhu Angela Y. , Yoo Sonia H. 
Published: February 2022

PURPOSE:
To describe a novel technique for primary intracapsular polypseudophakia performed on a pediatric patient with unilateral posterior polar cataract in a nanophthalmic eye.

METHODS:
Phacoemulsification combined with primary posterior capsulotomy, anterior vitrectomy, and primary intracapsular polypseudophakia was performed to attain full refractive correction, resulting in a piggyback one-piece intraocular lens (IOL) in the capsular bag with posterior optic capture of an underlying three-piece IOL.

RESULTS:
There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications. By 2 months postoperatively, uncorrected distance visual acuity of 20/50 was achieved (secondary to amblyopia) with plano manifest refraction.

CONCLUSIONS:
This case demonstrates a useful technique in nanophthalmic or hypermetropic eyes for which alternative methods of correcting residual postoperative refractive error may be suboptimal.

Assessment of role of inferior vena cava collapsibility index and variations in carotid artery peak systolic velocity in prediction of post-spinal anaesthesia hypotension in spontaneously breathing patients: An observational study
Authors: Chowdhury Sumit R. , Baidya Dalim K. , Maitra Souvik , Singh Akhil K. , Rewari Vimi , Anand Rahul K. 
Published: February 2022

Background and Aims:
Post-spinal anaesthesia hypotension (PSH) is common and can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. The inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVCCI) and carotid artery peak systolic velocity variations (CAPVV) are two widely used parameters for assessing the volume status of critically ill patients which have also been investigated as predictors of PSH and hypotension after induction of general anaesthesia. In this study, we evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of IVCCI and CAPVV as predictors of PSH.

Methods:
A total of 50 patients aged between 18 and 65 years undergoing elective lower abdominal surgeries under spinal anaesthesia were included. The IVCCI and CAPVV were measured using ultrasound pre-operatively. After administering spinal anaesthesia, haemodynamic data were collected till 15 min. Our primary objective was to evaluate the role of IVCCI and CAPVV to predict PSH. The secondary objectives were to compare the predictive efficacy of these two parameters and to detect other parameters for predicting PSH. We constructed the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves for IVCCI and CAPVV and obtained the best cut-off values.

Results:
The PSH occurred in 34% of the patients. IVCCI >21.15 could predict PSH with 58.8% sensitivity and 69.7% specificity. CAPVV >18.33 predicted PSH with 70.6% sensitivity and 54.6% specificity and IVC max/IVCCI >60 could predict PSH with 58.8% sensitivity and 54.5% specificity. A composite model comprising IVCmax (maximum IVC diameter), CAPVV, and baseline mean blood pressure was able to predict PSH.

Conclusion:
Both IVCCI and CAPVV have poor diagnostic accuracy in predicting PSH in adult patients undergoing elective infra-umbilical surgery.

Les feux de brousse sont courants en Afrique de l’Ouest et au Sahel. Ils contribuent à modifier sans cesse le paysage. Cette étude a été réalisée en Afrique de l’Ouest et en Mauritanie. Elle visait l’élaboration de plaidoyer pour la gestion des feux de brousse. Il s’agit plus spécifiquement, de contribuer à l’amélioration des connaissances sur la distribution spatiale et temporelle des feux de brousse. Pour cela, les données de MODIS (Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) allant de 2014 à 2020 ont été utilisées. La répartition des feux actifs durant la saison 2019/2020 a été analysée et comparée à la moyenne des 5 dernières années précédant la période d’étude. De façon générale, la saison des feux démarre entre octobre à novembre et se termine en avril, avec des pics qui se manifestent à partir de décembre. Il ressort que 70% des occurrences des feux apparaissent entre décembre et février ce qui a permis de classer les pays en 7 groupes. Cette étude a également montré que le taux de détection des feux dépend du type d’occupation de sol. Enfin, elle montre l’importance des informations produites pour une meilleure gestion des ressources naturelles disponibles dans un contexte de changement climatique.

English title: Wildfires monitoring in West Africa and the Sahel, a decision support tool
Wildfires are common in West Africa and the Sahel and contributes to shape the landscape. The study was carried out in West Africa and Mauritania. The main goal of this study is a plea for monitoring wildfires in West Africa. The specific goal was to improve knowledge on the spatial and temporal distribution of wildfires in West Africa. Data from (2014-2020) of Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) have been utilized and processed using descriptive statistics. Repartition of active fire detection during 2019/2020 has been studied and compared with the mean of the previous five years (2014-2018). In general, fire season begins from October to November and ends in April with peaks starting in December. Our study revealed that 70% of wildfires are observed from December to February and this helps to classify the countries of the study area into 7 groups. Moreover, it has been showed that fire detection rate depends on the type of soil occupation. Finally, his study shows that data from remote sensing can be used to provide information to help decision-making for monitoring the available natural resources under a climate change context.
