Authors: Bucquet Eliane , Chauviere Joëlle , Martin Dominique , Maquet Dominique , Moreau Jocelyne , Thibault Elisabeth 
Published: August 2022

Il est crucial pour toute institution hospitalière de maximiser l’engagement de ses acteurs, dans une exigence de qualité. Cadres de santé, nous nous sommes interrogés sur les dysfonctionnements liés au cloisonnement. Notre enquête exploratoire nous a permis de constater que les cloisonnements sont régulés par l’ensemble des acteurs, y compris le patient, et qu’au final « cela » fonctionne plutôt bien. Cependant, la régulation opérée a un coût ; elle n’est pas sans impact sur l’organisation, sur l’énergie dépensée ni sur une pesanteur au niveau des affects ressentis. Nous avons choisi d’axer notre recherche sur le rôle du patient dans cette régulation au travers de son témoignage. Le patient n’est jamais passif. S’adapter lui demande un réel travail pour être en adéquation avec le milieu dans lequel il arrive tout en s’économisant psychiquement. La régulation effectuée est souvent une régularisation. Le patient se conforme, ne s’autorise pas. L’entrée à l’hôpital ferait elle du patient un citoyen de seconde zone ? Nos résultats nous amènent à penser que le discours ambiant prônant le patient au cœur du système reste un objectif à atteindre.
Pressions sur les terres

Published: August 2022

Un rapport international récent tente de mesurer l’ampleur et les conséquences de « l’accaparement » des terres en Afrique. Bien que peu critique, il insiste sur les dangers, sociaux et écologiques, des acquisitions massives de terres, alors que par ailleurs on en exagère les avantages. En Éthiopie, Chinois et Saoudiens acquièrent des centaines de milliers d’hectares de terres « incultes » avec la complicité d’un État corrompu.
Visual Outcomes in Macula-Involving Retinal Detachments Based on Time to Surgical Repair
Authors: Yee Claudine , Xu David N. , Berger Rebecca F. , Traustason Kristine E. , Flaxel Christina 
Published: August 2022

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:
To examine the relationship between duration of macular detachment and postoperative visual acuity in macula-involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachments.

PATIENTS AND METHODS:
Retrospective review of patients who underwent surgical repair of macula-involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachments was conducted with Institutional Review Board approval. Primary outcome measure was postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) as dependent on duration of macular detachment.

RESULTS:

In eyes with duration of macular detachment less than or equal to 7 days, postoperative BCVA increased by 0.017 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) units (
P
= .001), and the odds of achieving logMAR 0 decreased by a factor of 0.43 (95% CI, 0.21 to 0.87;
P
= .02) with each additional day of detachment. Eyes repaired within 3 days of macular detachment were more likely to have postoperative BCVA of logMAR 0 than eyes repaired 4 to 7 days after macular detachment (odds ratio, 2.32; 95% CI, 1.15 to 4.70;
P
= .02).

CONCLUSION:
Increased duration of macular detachment is associated with progressive decline in postoperative visual acuity.

Color Vision and Microperimetry Changes in Nonexudative Age-Related Macular Degeneration After Risuteganib Treatment: Exploratory Endpoints in a Multicenter Phase 2a Double-Masked, Randomized, Sham-Controlled, Crossover Clinical Trial
Authors: Lad Eleonora M. , Boyer David S. , Heier Jeffrey S. , Kornfield Julie A. , Kuppermann Baruch D. , Quiroz-Mercado Hugo , Aubel Janine M. , Karageozian Lisa S. , Karageozian Hampar L. , Sarayba Melvin A. , Karageozian Vicken H. , Kaiser Peter K. 
Published: August 2022

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:
To explore the association between best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improvement and changes in microperimetry (MP) and color vision in patients with nonexudative age-related macular degeneration following administration of two 1.0-mg intravitreal doses of risuteganib.

PATIENTS AND METHODS:
In a phase 2a, prospective, double-masked, sham-controlled study, eyes with nonexudative age-related macular degeneration and Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study BCVA between 20/40 and 20/200 were randomized to intravitreal risuteganib (1.0 mg) or sham injection. The risuteganib group received a second 1.0-mg dose, and patients in the sham group crossed over to receive 1.0 mg of risuteganib at week 16. Exploratory endpoints included changes in color vision and mesopic MP.

RESULTS:

Thirty-nine patients (risuteganib,
n
= 25; sham,
n
= 14) completed the study. There was a significant (
P
< .05) correlation between BCVA and the total error score (TES) for both Lanthony and Hue Style. Confusion index was close to the criterion for significance (
P
= .056) in the risuteganib group. All color vision metrics demonstrated a trend toward improvement in risuteganib responders (BCVA letter gain ≥8 letters) and no change in the nonresponders, with significant differences seen in confusion index between the risuteganib and control group (
P
= .0493) and between responders and nonresponders (
P
= .0478). MP showed that risuteganib responders improved in mean sensitivity and change in number of loci ≤11 dB and ≤0 dB, whereas nonresponders worsened.

CONCLUSION:
All color vision and MP parameters tested trended toward improvement in risuteganib-treated patients and risuteganib responders. Statistically significant improvement was evident in two metrics: confusion index (in risuteganib-treated patients and responders) and number of loci with decreased sensitivity (in responders). A significant correlation between BCVA and both TES Lanthony and TES Hue Style in risuteganib patients provides concurrent evidence of objective and subjective improvement of retinal function.

Sports-related injuries and illnesses during the Four Feathers Ultra Marathon 2020, Sabah: A retrospective study
Authors: Aziz Mohamad Azwan , Nahar Azmi Mohamed 
Published: August 2022

Background:
There were limited studies on the prevalence of injuries and illnesses among ultramarathoners.

Aim and Objectives:
This was a retrospective study to describe the injuries and illnesses seen during Four Feather Ultra Marathon 2020, Sabah, held from 29th February 2020 to 1st March 2020, for future preparation of medical team standby.

Methods:
All ultramarathoners who reported to the medical camp or on site with medical complains, and musculoskeletal complains were included in the study pools. There were 6 medical camp sites; KM10, KM19, KM36, KM51, KM62 and KM90.

Results:
The incidence of injury was 504 per 1000 athletes, 478 per 1000 km run, and 401.4 per 1000 h run. There was no severe injury or medical illness that require urgent referral to a hospital. For minor injuries and illnesses, 54.3 % due to medical conditions, 39.8% due to musculoskeletal injuries and 5.9% due to skin conditions. For heat-related illness, 31.5% were heat cramps and 15.7% were heat exhaustion. 50KM category runners have the highest percentage of heat-related illness (78.3%) followed by 90km category (11.7%) and 20km category (10%). 74.2% (n = 89) of heat-related illness occurred at KM 19, 20% (n=24) occurred at KM 37, 2.5% (n = 3) at KM 50, and 3.3% (n = 4) at KM 70.

Conclusion:
It is important to identify the early signs of severe heat-related illness. Thus, pre-planning medical standby is crucial to alert all medical staff during the event regarding symptoms and signs of heat-related illnesses during the event.
Optimal race analysis parameters of freestyle swimming events: A case study
Authors: Mollon Desdemona 
Published: August 2022

Introduction:
During the swim meet, race analysis is a common practice to provide insight into each event. This case study explores the variables of swimming performance using the video analysis method.

Purpose:
To determine the best indicator from a set of swim variables (digitised from video) for competitive swim races by one Malaysian freestyle swimmer in preparation for the Tokyo Olympic Games 2020.

Methods:
Race video footage was analysed retrospectively to determine the key parameter for each event distance. The following variables were calculated: start time, end time (ET), turn time (TT), stroke count, stroke length, stroke rate, average velocity (AV) and stroke index. Differences were subsequently assessed among the parameters within the same event style.

Results:
The results from the correlation test between the eight digitised variables and final time (FT) showed that for both 200 and 400 m events the variables AV (respectively, r = −0.96 and r = −0.94) and TT (respectively, r = 0.89 and r = 0.83) were significantly correlated. In addition, for the 200 m events, the ET also significantly correlated (r = −0.94) with FT.

Conclusion:
This swimmer and over this period of Olympic qualifiers competitions, AV and TT were the best indicators for swim performance. Regarding the 200 m events, the end (sprint) time may also be an indicator.

Published: August 2022

ABSTRACT

Background
Racism is a longstanding driver of health inequities. Although medical education is a potential solution to address racism in health care, best practices remain unknown.

Objective
We sought to evaluate the impact of participation in a curriculum addressing racism on pediatric residents' racial biases and empathy.

Methods
A pre-post survey study was conducted in 2 urban, university-based, midsized pediatric residency programs between July 2019 and June 2020. The curriculum sessions included Self-Reflection on Implicit Bias, Historical Trauma, and Structural Racism. All sessions were paired with empathy and perspective-taking exercises and were conducted in small groups to facilitate reflective discussion. Wilcoxon signed rank tests were used to assess changes in racial bias and empathy. Linear regression was used to assess the effect of resident characteristics on racial bias and empathy.

Results
Ninety of 111 residents receiving the curriculum completed pre-surveys (81.1%), and among those, 65 completed post-surveys (72.2%). Among participants with baseline pro-White bias, there was a statistically significant shift (0.46 to 0.36, P=.02) toward no preference. Among participants with a baseline pro-Black bias, there was a statistically significant shift (-0.38 to -0.21, P=.02), toward no preference. Among participants with baseline pro-White explicit bias, there was a statistically significant shift (0.54 to 0.30, P&lt;.001) toward no preference. Among all residents, there was a modest but statistically significant decrease in mean empathy (22.95 to 22.42, P=.03).

Conclusions
Participation in a longitudinal discussion-based curriculum addressing racism modestly reduced pediatric residents' racial preferences with minimal effects on empathy scales.

Liposuction for Lipedema: 2022 Update
Authors: Tran Khai , Horton Jennifer 
Published: August 2022

A 2022 UK guideline recommends that the liposuction procedure for treatment of lipedema should only be used in the context of research because of inadequate efficacy and safety data.
A 2021 US guideline recognizes that liposuction is currently the only available technique for removing abnormal lipedema tissue. The guideline has a series of consensus statements on patient selection, indications for liposuction, prevention of procedure-related adverse events, and pre- and post-surgical management.
There were no recent studies on the clinical effectiveness of liposuction compared with no treatment or to alternative treatments for the treatment of lipedema.

Published: August 2022

Dental and non-therapeutic dental accessories are gaining popularity and are becoming mainstream, especially among the youth. The rise of cosmetic dentistry in the last few decades and better reception of aesthetic dental procedures by the public might be the reason why. Even though dental as seen in the current dental practices may seem a new concept, but the idea is at least 4500 years old. There are various types and forms of dental . Some are fixed while others are removable. While they sound enticing they also have their occasional complications such as increased plaque levels, gingival inflammation and or recession, caries, diminished articulation, and metal allergy. But these can be prevented if proper precautions are taken before initiating the procedure as well as while executing it.

Published: August 2022

Objective: The current meta-analysis aimed to analyze all published results about the diagnostic performance of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) to assess the differential diagnosis between malignant and benign breast cancer and comparison of curve fitting methods. Methods: PubMed and Embase databases were systematically searched to find relevant articles published until November2021 in English journals. Studies were evaluated in accordance with inclusion and exclusion standards. We evaluated study heterogeneity and publication bias. Using a bivariate model, aggregated summary values of sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve were derived for each related parameters of the intravoxel incoherent motion (true diffusivity [D], pseudo-diffusivity [D*], perfusion fraction [f]). Subgroup analysis was employed to investigate the impact of various field strengths and b values. Results: From 25 eligible studies, 2391 lesions (1652 malignant and 653 benign) were included. Publication bias was evident for studies that evaluated parameters of the intravoxel incoherent motion (D, D*, and f). Significant heterogeneity (P 0.05) was present for all parameters. The pooled sensitivity, specificity and area under the curve for f was 0.78, 0.69, and 0.83, respectively. D* was 0.69, 0.63, and 0.72, respectively.

New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) and the Challenges of Good Governance in Africa: An Appraisal of the Nigeria’s Democratic Journey in the Fourth Republic (1999-Date)
Authors: Tukur Mustafa Adedeji 
Published: August 2022

Though, Nigeria’s attempt to democratize its political space in the wake of the virtual continent-wide embrace of democracy following the demise of the cold-war was greeted with some attendant political stalemates. The impasse of the June 12th 1993 and the elongated transition to civil-rule programs of the Nigerian military government marked some turning points in the Nigeria’s journey towards democratic governance. The eventual departure of the Nigerian military from the political stage in 1999 and the birthing of democratic government only came into after the abrupt end of the cold war and the bipolar world system which, marked the triumphant emergence of the western liberal democracy, the final withdrawal of the Nigerian military from politics in 1999 and the formation of a democratic administration took over a decade to materialize. However, Nigeria , a leading proponent member-nation of the African home-grown initiative of NEPAD is today, challenged by a myriad of contending problems, arising paradoxically from some of the agenda with which NEPAD as a multilateral platform for the African nations has been put in place to address . This paper is essentially literature-based and therefore, attempts to historicize the Nigeria’s journey and its travails of democratization, as well as, the contradictions, which have also put to interrogation, the country’s democratic credentials amidst its crises of governance. The paper noted that, for Nigeria as a leading country on the continent, there is need for the self cleansing of its domestic polity and the civic space in keeping faith to the sacred creed of sowing the seed of democracy and consolidating such on the African continent.
