Evaluation of Neurology Consultations in a COVID-19 Pandemic Hospital, A Retrospective Study
Authors: Gunduz ZB 
Published: September 2022

Background:
Affinity of coronavirus disease to the central nervous system is not well known.

Aim:
We aimed to share the data of COVID-19 patients with neurological complaints in a pandemia hospital.

Material and Method:
Consultation results requested from the neurology clinic of Konya Meram State Hospital were retrospectively examined. PCR test positive patients, PCR negative patients with positive clinical, laboratory and radiological findings with COVID-19 were evaluated. Age, gender, history of neurological diseases, and neurological symptoms were recorded.

Results:
The reason for consultation was acute neurological symptom in 96 (84.2%) patients, counseling for treatment in chronic disease in 15 (13.2%) patients, and worsening in chronic disease in 3 (2.6%) patients. As neurological disorders, 22 (19.3%) had a history of previous stroke, 10 (8.8%) had dementia, 4 (3.5%) had epilepsy, 4 (3.5%) had Parkinson's disease, 3 (2.6%) had multiple sclerosis, 2 (1.8%) had myasthenia graves, and 1 (0.9%) had restless legs syndrome respectively. The most common reason for requesting consultation was changes in consciousness (56.1%). Of the 114 patients who requested neurology consultation, 65 (57%) were discharged, 49 (43%) were died.

Conclusion:
The change in consciousness was the reason in more than half of the patients who requested neurology consultation during COVID-19 follow-up. Impaired consciousness in a patient with COVID-19 may indicate a poor prognosis. If the studies planned in the near future can shed light on the cause of the unconsciousness developing in COVID-19, it will be promising in terms of treatment plans to reduce mortality.

Authors: Yurtogullari S , Erbahçeci İE 
Published: September 2022

Background:
Integrity of outer retinal bands among multiple sclerosis (MS) subtypes remains unclear, however alterations of thickness in retinal layers is well described.

Aim:
The objective of the study was to determine the alterations in the thickness of the inner and outer layers of the retina and the findings in both layers detected by optical coherence tomography (OCT) among patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS).

Patients and Methods:
A total of 132 eyes from 66 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) (70 eyes from 35 patients with RRMS and 62 eyes from 31 patients with SPMS) and 72 eyes from 36 healthy controls were included in the study. The external structures of the retina, including the outer limiting membrane (ELM), ellipsoid zone (EZ), and interdigitation zone (IZ), were examined using OCT in RRMS, SPMS, and healthy control groups. The correlation of neurological disability expressed by the Expanded Disability Study Scale (EDSS) score, best-corrected visual acuity, and duration of disease among OCT parameters was also analyzed.

Results:
In eyes, with no history of previous optic neuritis (ON), the macular nerve fiber layer, the internal plexiform layer of ganglion cells (GCIPL), and the total thickness of the retinal layer were thinner in the SPMS group than in the RRMS group (P < 0.05, in each comparison). EZ was more vulnerable among the three hyperreflective external retinal zones in the retina of patients with SPMS than in patients with RRMS (P = 0.016).

Conclusions:
Alterations in retinal thickness in MS are not limited to the inner layers of the retina and also occur in the outer structures of the retina.
Screen Viewing Practices and Caregivers' Knowledge of the Health-Related Effects in Children and Adolescents in a Nigerian Urban City
Authors: Ikefuna AN , Uwaezuoke NA , Eze JN , Eke AL , Eke CB 
Published: September 2022

Background:
Globally, a dramatic increase in the use of television and digital media has been observed among children and adolescents in recent times. The possible health-related effects of frequent and prolonged screen media viewing on these children and adolescents have triggered many concerns among researchers.

Aim:
The study is aimed to determine the screen media viewing practices and caregivers' level of knowledge about the health-related effects of prolonged screen viewing time on their children. This was a descriptive cross-sectional study among caregiver/child and adolescent dyads on outpatient clinic visits.

Subjects and Methods:
Respondents (caregivers/children's pairs) were consecutively recruited, and data was obtained using an unambiguous pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire comprising four domains: socio demographic characteristics; screen media viewing characteristics, perception of the health related effects of prolonged viewing time, and measures to limit prolonged screen viewing time in children. Descriptive and inferential statistics were done using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 22.0 at a level of statistical significance P < 0.05.

Results:
Of the 205 respondents studied, the majority (67.8%, fathers and 76.1%, mothers) had tertiary education. The daily mean time spent by children watching television/screen media was 2 (± 1.58) hours. Up to 89.3% of the caregivers established good standards for healthy screen-viewing in their homes. However, 52.7% of them had poor knowledge of the health-related problems of increased viewing time. Socio-economic class (P = 0.002) and knowledge level of the parents (P = 0.000) were significant predictors limiting children's screen-viewing time.

Conclusion:
Increasing screen media viewing is common among the children studied. The majority of the caregivers had poor knowledge of health-related effects of prolonged viewing time despite high educational attainment. There is a need to enlighten caregivers on the possible health effects of excess screen media viewing so as to enable them to institute stringent measures to limit the attendant health consequences on the children.
Mid-term Radiological Results of Intra-Articular Penetration of the Screw Used in Scaphoid Surgery
Authors: Coskun T , Arik HO 
Published: September 2022

Background and Aim:
Headless cannulated compression screw is often used in scaphoid fracture and nonunion surgery. In the volar and dorsal surgical approach, when adequate fluoroscopic imaging is not performed, the screw may protrude beyond the scaphoid bone and penetrate into the joint. When the length of the screw is too long, and it is noticed intraoperatively, it is replaced with a shorter screw. However, there is no clear consensus in the literature about the way to be followed when screw penetration is noticed in the postoperative period.

Materials and Methods:
The cases in which cannulated screw penetrated the radioscaphoid, scapholunate, and scaphotrapeziotrapezoid joint on postoperative radiographs were included in this study. Sixteen patients (13 men and 3 women) were included. The mean postoperative follow up time was 35.1 months. There was scaphotrapeziotrapezoid joint penetration in seven cases, scapholunate joint penetration in two cases, and radioscaphoid joint penetration in seven cases.

Results:
Osteoarthritis developed in the scapholunate joint in two cases and in the radioscaphoid joint in two cases. Early revision surgery or waiting for the fracture to heal and removing the screw, or not performing secondary surgery are among the options. In this study, mid term radiological results of screws penetrating radioscaphoid, scapholunate, and scaphotrapeziotrapezoid joints were examined. It was observed that it may cause osteoarthritis development in radioscaphoid and scapholunate joints, but it did not cause osteoarthritis development in scaphotrapeziotrapezoid joint.

Conclusion:
In the early postoperative period, revision surgery is recommended to prevent the development of osteoarthritis of screws penetrating the radioscaphoid and scapholunate joint.
Predictors of Shisha Use among Medical and Dental Students in Ibadan, Nigeria
Authors: Fagbule OF , Cadmus EO 
Published: September 2022

Background:
Shisha is a form of smoked tobacco product. Medical trainees are potential stakeholders in providing accurate information about shisha and discouraging its use. However, few studies have targeted medical trainees to provide much-needed information for policymaking and planning of programs.

Aim:
To determine the prevalence and predictors of shisha use among medical and dental students in Ibadan, Nigeria.

Subjects and Methods:
A cross-sectional study was conducted among medical and dental students (n = 252) of the University of Ibadan, selected using the stratified random sampling technique. The Global Health Profession Students Survey (GHPSS) questionnaire was used to obtain information about socio-demographics, shisha and other tobacco use, and knowledge and attitude towards shisha use. The data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25. Continuous data were presented using mean and standard deviation, whereas categorical variables were reported as proportions. The association between the outcome variable (shisha use) and independent variables (sociodemographic characteristics, having friends who use shisha) was measured using Pearson's Chi-square test, and factors significant (P < 0.05) were entered into the multivariable logistic regression model.

Result:
The mean age (± SD) was 21.7 (± 3.1) years. Over half [136 (54%)] were males, and most [199 (79%)] were medical students. About 28 (11%) were not aware of shisha, whereas 22 (8.7%) reported they had ever used shisha. The mean knowledge score was 5.6 ± 4.7, and 76 (33.9%) supported shisha use. Positive predictors of shisha use included the male gender [OR: 6.4 (95% CI: 1.76–23.10)] and having a friend who uses shisha [OR: 28.2 (95% CI: 5.49–144.23)].

Conclusion:
The prevalence of shisha use among medical and dental students in Ibadan is unacceptably high, although low compared to other countries in similar resource settings. Surprisingly, the students had poor knowledge about shisha, and over a third supported its use, especially males who were more prone to use it. There is a need to design targeted health promotion and education for the students, especially males.

Published: September 2022

Populations of Agave potatorum Zucc. have been overexploited from their habitat for the commercial production of mezcal, a traditional Mexican liquor. For this species, micropropagation is the only method for cloning selected genotypes. The aim of this study was to establish an efficient protocol for the in-vitro propagation of A. potatorum by use of individual shoots. In the propagation stage, the interaction between different concentrations of the cytokinin benzylaminopurine (BAP: 0, 1.5, and 3.0 mg L–1)and the auxin indole acetic acid (IAA: 0, 1.5, and 3.0 mg L–1) was evaluated. For in-vitro rooting, the interaction between different auxin concentrations, namely naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA: 0, 1.5 and 3.0 mg L–1) and IAA (0, 1.5 and 3.0 mg L–1) was evaluated. In the propagation stage, the highest number of shoots was obtained with the combinations of 3.0 mg L–1 BAP + 3.0 mg L–1 IAA, 1.5 mg L–1 BAP + 3.0 mg L–1 IAA, and 3.0 mg L–1 BAP + 1.5 mg L–1 IAA, which yielded 9.87, 9.73, and 9.73 shoots per explant, respectively. In the rooting stage, the best shoot development was observed in the control treatment and when only 3.0 mg L–1 IAA was supplemented. Finally, after the rooting stage, the plantlets obtained were acclimatized and grown in the field, yielding a survival rate of 98-100%. In conclusion, this propagation protocol contributes to obtaining commercial propagules suitable for establishment in the field.

Abstract
Translation of Oskar Becker’s “Transcendence and Paratranscendence” (1937). The essay is the first announcement of Becker’s project of “paraontology,” a phenomenological investigation of essence that attempted to encompass both mathematical and “natural” entities (which he took to include racial identity).
Kant and Slavery—Or Why He Never Became a Racial Egalitarian
Authors: Lu-Adler Huaping 
Published: September 2022

AbstractAccording to an oft-repeated narrative, while Kant maintained racist views through the 1780s, he changed his mind in the 1790s. Pauline Kleingeld introduced this narrative based on passages from Kant’s Metaphysics of Morals (1797) and “Toward Perpetual Peace” (1795). On her reading, Kant categorically condemned chattel slavery (and colonialism) in those texts, which meant that he became more racially egalitarian. But the passages involving slavery, once contextualized, either do not concern modern, race-based chattel slavery or at best suggest that Kant mentioned it as a cautionary tale for labor practices in Europe. Overall, Kant never explicitly considered chattel slavery as a moral problem to be addressed on its own. Rather, he treated it primarily in terms of its function in human history. If he ended up expressing some qualms about its practices, it was likely because they threatened to deepen intra-European conflicts and undermine the prospect of perpetual peace. The humanity of the enslaved “Negroes” was never part of the reasoning. This was not a casual oversight on Kant’s part. It reflects the complexity of his philosophical system: everything he did or did not say about chattel slavery begins to make sense once we connect his philosophy of history and his depiction of “Negroes” as natural slaves.
