title: Viscotrabeculotomy with anterior chamber irrigation versus Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation for silicone oil glaucoma in the pseudophakic eye

description: ABSTRACT Purpose: To compare viscotrabeculotomy with anterior chamber irrigation to Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation for secondary glaucoma following silicone oil removal. Methods: A prospective study was conducted on 43 vitrectomized pseudophakic eyes with persistent glaucoma after silicone oil removal. Patients were randomized to either viscotrabeculotomy with anterior chamber irrigation or Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation. All patients were examined on day 1, week 1, and months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 postoperatively. Postoperative complications were noted. Success was defined as an intraocular pressure between 6 and 20 mmHg and with an intraocular pressure reduction of &gt;30% compared with the preoperative intraocular pressure. Results: There were 22 eyes in the viscotrabeculotomy with anterior chamber irrigation and 21 eyes in the Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation group. The mean preoperative and postoperative intraocular pressure in the viscotrabeculotomy with anterior chamber irrigation and Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation groups were 35.5 ± 2.6 mmHg and 35.5 ± 2.4 mmHg and 16.9 ± 0.7 mmHg and 17.9 ± 0.9 mmHg respectively (p˂0.0001). There was a statistically significant intraocular pressure reduction at all follow-up time points compared to preoperative values (p˂0.0001) in both groups. The unqualified success rate in the viscotrabeculotomy with anterior chamber irrigation and Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation groups were 72.73% and 61.9%, respectively. A minimal self-limited hyphema was the most common complication. Conclusions: Both viscotrabeculotomy with anterior chamber irrigation and Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation are effective in lowering the intraocular pressure in glaucoma after silicone oil removal with viscotrabeculotomy with anterior chamber irrigation providing greater reduction, higher success rates, and minimal complications.

title: BIOGAS PRODUCTION BY ANAEROBIC DIGESTION OF COFFEE HUSKS AND CATTLE MANURE

description: ABSTRACT The use of agricultural residues in anaerobic digestion (AD) for biogas production promotes environmental and socioeconomic benefits. This study aimed to evaluate the biogas production from dry coffee husks (DCH), wet coffee husks (WCH), and cattle manure (CM) in AD. Prototypes of Indian anaerobic benchtop digesters with a batch feeding system supplied with 100 CM, 100 DCH, and 100 WCH for anaerobic mono-digestion (AMoD) and 25:75 DCH:CM and WCH:CM for anaerobic co-digestion (ACoD) were used in the experiment. The dry husk was mechanically pre-treated with grinding in a manual mill. Moisture and total solid presented no statistically significant difference between the studied relationships but the coffee husk as a co-digestant acidified the medium to be digested. The 25:75 DCH:CM ratio anticipated biogas production (7th week) and showed higher potential for weekly and accumulated biogas production. The Gompertz model showed the best fit considering the coefficient of determination, mean relative error, standard deviation of the estimate, and mean squared deviation. Therefore, the coffee husk as a co-digestant of cattle manure is a potential lignocellulosic biomass for biogas production provided that the process is conducted under pre-treatment.

title: Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is safe and effective in patients with high comorbidity burden

description: ABSTRACT Introduction We assessed the efficacy and safety of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) in patients with high comorbidity burden. Materials and methods Data from patients treated with HoLEP at our academic referral center from March 2017 to January 2021 were prospectively collected. Patients were divided according to their CCI (Charlson Comorbidity Index). Perioperative surgical data and 3-month functional outcomes were collected. Results Out of 305 patients included, 107 (35.1%) and 198 (64.9%) were classified as CCI ≥ 3 and &lt; 3, respectively. The groups were comparable in terms of baseline prostate size, symptoms severity, post-void residue and Qmax. The amount of energy delivered during HoLEP (141.3 vs. 118.0 KJ, p=0.01) and lasing time (38 vs 31 minutes, p=0.01) were significantly higher in patients with CCI ≥ 3. However, median enucleation, morcellation and overall surgical time were comparable between the two groups (all p&gt;0.05). Intraoperative complications rate (9.3% vs. 9.5%, p=0.77), median time to catheter removal and hospital stay were comparable between the two cohorts. Similarly, early (30 days) and delayed (&gt;30 days) surgical complications rates were not significantly different between the two groups. At 3-month follow up, functional outcomes using validated questionnaires did not differ between the two groups (all p&gt;0.05). Conclusions HoLEP represents a safe and effective treatment option for BPH also in patients with high comorbidity burden.

title: Bullying on Adolescence: Psychological Assessment with Projective Methods (Paris School)

description: ABSTRACT This work aims to assess the psychological impact of school bullying on adolescents. This study is about an exploratory clinical-qualitative research with multiple case studies of four teenagers, who had been victimized by bullying acts aged between 15 and 17 years old. This study applied the following instruments: Semi-structured interview; SCL-90-R scale; Rorschach Method and Thematic Apperception Test (Parisian School). The results show depression, anxiety, non-suicidal self-injury and suicidal attempts. On the SCL-90-R Scale, five out of nine psychopathological factors stood out in two cases. On Rorschach, the coercion and extroversion predominate as a Type of Intimate Resonance. Thematic Apperception Test results points lability and rigidity. The presence of bullying points to an own psychological dynamic in each case.

title: Metabolic effect of low fluoride levels in the islets of NOD mice: integrative morphological, immunohistochemical, and proteomic analyses

description: Abstract Fluoride (F) has been widely used to control dental caries, and studies suggest beneficial effects against diabetes when a low dose of F is added to the drinking water (10 mgF/L). Objectives This study evaluated metabolic changes in pancreatic islets of NOD mice exposed to low doses of F and the main pathways altered by the treatment. Methodology In total, 42 female NOD mice were randomly divided into two groups, considering the concentration of F administered in the drinking water for 14 weeks: 0 or 10 mgF/L. After the experimental period, the pancreas was collected for morphological and immunohistochemical analysis, and the islets for proteomic analysis. Results In the morphological and immunohistochemical analysis, no significant differences were found in the percentage of cells labelled for insulin, glucagon, and acetylated histone H3, although the treated group had higher percentages than the control group. Moreover, no significant differences were found for the mean percentages of pancreatic areas occupied by islets and for the pancreatic inflammatory infiltrate between the control and treated groups. Proteomic analysis showed large increases in histones H3 and, to a lesser extent, in histone acetyltransferases, concomitant with a decrease in enzymes involved in the formation of acetyl-CoA, besides many changes in proteins involved in several metabolic pathways, especially energy metabolism. The conjunction analysis of these data showed an attempt by the organism to maintain protein synthesis in the islets, even with the dramatic changes in energy metabolism. Conclusion Our data suggests epigenetic alterations in the islets of NOD mice exposed to F levels comparable to those found in public supply water consumed by humans.

title: Epilepsy and the “dark” literature of the Greek novelist Demosthenes Voutyras: an outstanding epileptic personality

description: Abstract Background The role of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) in determining personality traits and neurobehavioral symptoms, collectively known as the interictal behavioral syndrome (also known as Geschwind syndrome or “Gastaut-Geschwind syndrome”), as well as the syndrome’s association with the particular artistic expression of many epileptic litterateurs are well known in neurology and psychiatry. A deepening of emotionality along with a serious, highly ethical, and spiritual behavior have been described as positive personality changes among patients with chronic mesial-TLE. Objectives Our narrative-based clinical hypothesis aims at contributing to the ongoing debate on the association between TLE and artistic expression, as well as the latter’s supposed implication for epileptology in general and the neuropsychology of epilepsy in particular. Methods Through an analysis of the biography, language, and literary work of Greek novelist Demosthenes Voutyras, we hypothesize that his mystical and dark writing style could be attributed to medial temporal interictal dynamics. Conclusions We suggest that the psycholiterary profile of Voutyras is consistent with the idiosyncratic characteristics of the temporal lobe personality, while a non-dominant temporal lobe contribution has been proposed.

title: Data for: Feedstock nitrogen content mediates maximum possible Pb sorption capacity of biochars

description: Biochars were produced from four different feedstock materials: hay, wheat straw, coco coir, and pine bark. The feedstock materials were packed in steel containers with a small hole cut into the lid to avoid pressure build up. The containers were heated to the desired temperature for one hour using a Gallenkamp Muffle furnace to pyrolyse the feedstocks and then allowed to cool overnight before the biochar was removed. Biochars were made from each of the four feedstocks at 300 °C, 350 °C, 400 °C, 450 °C, 500 °C, 550 °C, 600 °C, 650 °C, 700 °C, and 750 °C, resulting in a total of 40 different biochars. The biochars were each ground to a fine powder using a TEMA T100ACH Laboratory Disc Mill.

Biochar pH was determined in triplicate by shaking 1g of biochar with 20ml of ultra-pure water for 30 minutes and measuring the pH of the biochar/water slurry. Approximately 4 mg of each ground biochar and feedstock sample was analysed for total carbon and nitrogen content by dry combustion using a Thermo Scientific Flash 2000 Organic Elemental Analyser. Biochars and feedstocks were digested in nitric acid prior to determination of Ca, Mg, K, P, S, Na, Cu, Pb, Mn, Zn, Al, and Fe by the ICP-OES (Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy). 

Pb batch adsorption isotherms were carried out for each of the 40 biochars using five Pb solutions (100, 200, 500, 1000, and 5000 mg Pb L-1) prepared by serial dilution of a 5000 mg L-1 stock solution of lead nitrate made by dissolving Analytical grade Pb (NO3)2 in > 18.2 MΩ.cm water. Milled biochar (1 g ± 0.05 g) was weighed into a 50 ml centrifuge tube and 30 ml of Pb solution was added to each sample. Samples were placed in a rotary end-over-end shaker at 20 inversions per minute, at a controlled temperature of 20 °C for 24 hours for to ensure equilibrium between biochar surfaces and the Pb in solution. After 24 hours, samples were removed from the shaker and the pH was measured and recorded. Samples were then centrifuged at 3600 rpm for 15 minutes to separate the biochar particles from solution using a Mistral 3000i centrifuge. The supernatant was filtered through a Whatman no. 5 filter paper. Further filtration was carried out using a 0.2 µm cellulose membrane syringe filter. Samples were then diluted and acidified using concentrated nitric acid (HNO3) and analysed for Pb concentration using an ICP-OES.
Cs is the Pb concentration on biochar (mg g-1), Ci is the initial solution Pb concentration (mg L-1), Caq is the final solution Pb concentration (mg L-1), V is the solution volume (L), and Sm is the mass of biochar (g).

title: body mass index and early PN-led support

description: Data from a nationwide perspective observational study conducted between September and December 2014 were analyzed. A total of 379 patients with AGI were included and categorized into different BMI groups.Collected data included general demographics, primary diagnosis, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE II) score, AGI grade, total energy intake over a 72-hour period (TEI-72h), and 28-day mortality.For individuals with a BMI < 25 kg/m², actual body weight (ABW) was used to determine energy requirements. Moreover, for those with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m², the reference (adjusted) body weight was replaced with the ideal body weight (IBW). The IBW was calculated by subtracting 100 (for males) or 106 (for females) from 0.9 multiplied by the height in centimeters. Additionally, when calculating energy requirements, it was considered to include 20% of the excess weight (the difference between the ABW and IBW) in addition to the IBW.

title: VUCA environment on project success: The effect of project management methods

description: Abstract Due to the ever-changing work environment in the age of digital transformation, project managers need to adapt to an environment which is volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA). Many organizations adopt management methods based on strict project management planning , assuming that they are the best way to succeed in any situation. However, projects may depend on flexibility to achieve success. This study aims to analyze the impact of adverse project environments on project success and the effect of the management method choice. A PLS-SEM model is tested on a survey of 332 project professionals. Findings showed that choosing a method that best fits the project's environment can help catch up on project success only when it undergoes frequent changes throughout its life cycle.
