Background Increasing demand for minimally invasive aesthetic treatments, such as injection of biostimulator substances to induce the production of extracellular matrix, has been reported. Recent studies have reported on a variety of different product characteristics influencing the integration and distribution of biostimulator substances after injection. Objectives The aim of this study was to analyze the ex vivo product integration and distribution behavior of 6 different biostimulator substances after injection. Methods A total of n = 21 abdominal soft tissue flaps were analysed by real-time ultrasound imaging with regards to horizontal and vertical spread of 6 different injected biostimulator substances—based on hydroxylapatite (HA), polycaprolactone (PCL), and poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA)—immediately after injection and after massaging. The 6 different biostimulator substances were R-CaHA-based, H-CaHA-based, PCL-based, PLLA-1-based, PLLA-2-based and H-HA-based products. Results Overall, the R-CaHA-, H-CaHA-, and PCL-based substances showed greater product spread after massaging when compared with the product distribution immediately after the injection with all P < .001 with the exception of the vertical dimension of the H-CaHA-based substance (P = .064). The PLLA-1-, PLLA-2-, and H-HA-based substances showed smaller product spread after massaging compared with the product distribution immediately after the injection with all P < .001 with the exception of the horizontal dimension of the H-HA-based substance (P = .314), indicating higher tissue integration. Conclusions Different biostimulator substances behave differently when injected into subcutaneous soft tissues; differences exist at the level of initial product diffusion and during tissue integration.

Physiology (medical) ,Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine - Abstract
Background: The ISCHEMIA trial (International Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness With Medical and Invasive Approaches) compared an initial invasive versus an initial conservative management strategy for patients with chronic coronary disease and moderate or severe ischemia, with no major difference in most outcomes during a median of 3.2 years. Extended follow-up for mortality is ongoing. Methods: ISCHEMIA participants were randomized to an initial invasive strategy added to guideline-directed medical therapy or a conservative strategy. Patients with moderate or severe ischemia, ejection fraction ≥35%, and no recent acute coronary syndromes were included. Those with an unacceptable level of angina were excluded. Extended follow-up for vital status is being conducted by sites or through central death index search. Data obtained through December 2021 are included in this interim report. We analyzed all-cause, cardiovascular, and noncardiovascular mortality by randomized strategy, using nonparametric cumulative incidence estimators, Cox regression models, and Bayesian methods. Undetermined deaths were classified as cardiovascular as prespecified in the trial protocol. Results: Baseline characteristics for 5179 original ISCHEMIA trial participants included median age 65 years, 23% women, 16% Hispanic, 4% Black, 42% with diabetes, and median ejection fraction 0.60. A total of 557 deaths accrued during a median follow-up of 5.7 years, with 268 of these added in the extended follow-up phase. This included a total of 343 cardiovascular deaths, 192 noncardiovascular deaths, and 22 unclassified deaths. All-cause mortality was not different between randomized treatment groups (7-year rate, 12.7% in invasive strategy, 13.4% in conservative strategy; adjusted hazard ratio, 1.00 [95% CI, 0.85–1.18]). There was a lower 7-year rate cardiovascular mortality (6.4% versus 8.6%; adjusted hazard ratio, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.63–0.96]) with an initial invasive strategy but a higher 7-year rate of noncardiovascular mortality (5.6% versus 4.4%; adjusted hazard ratio, 1.44 [95% CI, 1.08–1.91]) compared with the conservative strategy. No heterogeneity of treatment effect was evident in prespecified subgroups, including multivessel coronary disease. Conclusions: There was no difference in all-cause mortality with an initial invasive strategy compared with an initial conservative strategy, but there was lower risk of cardiovascular mortality and higher risk of noncardiovascular mortality with an initial invasive strategy during a median follow-up of 5.7 years.

Ocean Engineering - Abstract
Introduction. In addition to good biological properties, biomaterials should also possess appropriate physical properties in order to provide stability and longevity at the place of application. The aim of this work was to evaluate physical properties of an experimental nanostructured material based on calcium aluminate (CAL) and calcium silicate (CS). Material and method. The research used nanostructured calcium aluminate synthesized by the hydrothermal solgel method from the individual components of calcium aluminate (CaO?Al2O3), calcite (CaCO3) and barium sulfate (BaSO4) as an X-ray contrast agent and calcium silicate (CS). The prepared material was placed in plastic molds with a diameter of 5 ? 0.1 mm and a height of 2 ? 0.1 mm. After setting time, the materials were left in an incubator at 37?C for 24 hours, and then they were removed from the mold and absorption and solubility of the materials was calculated. MTA (Angelus Londrina, Brazil) was used as a control material. Results. The lowest material solubility was recorded with MTA (0.255 mg/mm3), followed by calcium silicate (0.267 mg/mm3), and the highest with calcium aluminate (0.725 mg/mm3). The difference was statistically significant between calcium aluminate and MTA (p = 0.001901) and between calcium aluminate and calcium silicate (p = 0.002550). After 28 days in deionized water, the lowest water sorption was recorded with MTA (0.347 mg/mm3), followed by calcium silicate (0.357 mg/mm3), and the highest water sorption was measured with calcium aluminate (0.474 mg/mm3). Statistically significant differences were observed between calcium aluminate and MTA (p = 0.000283) and between calcium aluminate and calcium silicate (p = 0.001576). Conclusion. Material solubility and water absorption of calcium aluminate-based nanostructured material was significantly higher compared to calcium silicate (CS) and MTA.

Dermatology - Abstract
Previous clinical and anatomic investigations have identified the clinical relevance of facial biomechanics. Based on this new understanding, principles for facial aesthetic procedures were established: Lateral Face First, Deep Layers First, and Upper Face First.To test the upper face first principle by showing that an injection sequence, starting in the upper face is superior to an injection sequence starting in the lower face.This study was designed as an interventional split-face study administering the same amount and type of soft tissue filler for the upper, middle, and lower face but in a different sequence: upper, middle, lower face versus lower, middle, and upper face. A total of 15 patients (5 males and 10 females) with a mean age of 39.4 years (9.6) and a mean BMI of 23.4 kg/mDespite not reaching statistical significance, midfacial volume and jawline contouring were rated better at every follow-up visit (D0, D30, D90) when treated with the upper versus the lower face first injection algorithm. The global aesthetic improvement scale showed statistically significantly better values for the upper face first algorithm when compared to the lower face first algorithm at all evaluated time points with all p 0.001.Applying the upper face first injection algorithm seems to result in better aesthetic outcomes when directly compared to the lower face first algorithm. Semiquantitative and objective outcome measurements confirm its clinical effectiveness.

Background/Aim. The fundamental objective of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in myocardial infarction is to provide early, complete, and sustained flow in the occluded artery that has led to myocardial ischemia or necrosis. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive power of a combination of GRACE, SYNTAX I, and SYNTAX II scores in predicting major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and one-year mortality in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-STEMI (NSTEMI) after primary PCI. Methods. The study included 400 patients who had their first acute myocardial infarction and underwent PCI. The patients were treated and followed for one year at the Clinical Hospital Center Zvezdara at the Department of Interventional Cardiology. By monitoring the defined clinical parameters, a comparative analysis of risk scores GRACE, SYNTAX I, and SYNTAX II was performed. Their sensitivity, specificity as well as predictive possibilities in predicting adverse outcomes were determined. Results. The incidence of MACE in our sample was 12.8%. Patients with STEMI entity had significantly higher values of GRACE, SYNTAX I, and SYNTAX II scores. The highest value for predicting the occurrence of MACE was shown by the SYNTAX II score (score value 29.3), with a sensitivity of 88.2% and a specificity of 76.8%. The GRACE score was a significant predictor of SYNTAX I and SYNTAX II scores. A two-way correlation was observed between the high score values of all three scores. Conclusion. The presented scores for the assessment of clinical and angiographic indicators showed good predictive power in assessing the outcome of adverse cardiovascular events in both clinical entities of acute myocardial infarction during one-year follow-up. By using the proposed scores to assess MACE, we can single out high-risk patients in order to prevent adverse events and reduce mortality. This suggests its suitability for clinical use in this patient population.

(1) Background: We aimed to analyze the oxidative status of patients with unstable angina pectoris (UA), as well as to determine the correlation of these parameters between coronary arterial and peripheral venous blood samples. (2) Methods: The study included 47 human subjects with UA and 45 control subjects. We performed clinical examinations, hemodynamic and coronary angiography measures. Also, in the blood samples, we measured routine laboratory markers and the concentration of pro-oxidants: index of lipid peroxidation (TBARS), superoxide anion radical (O2−), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and nitrites (NO2−), while antioxidant parameters were determined from red blood cells: reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). All parameters were determined spectrophotometrically. (3) Results: Significantly higher values of TBARS and all measured antioxidants SOD, CAT and GSH were observed in the coronary arterial blood of the UA group relative to coronary arterial blood of the control subjects. On the other hand, in the peripheral venous blood samples, a significantly lower GSH value was found in the UA group compared to the control. (4) Conclusions: This study has shown that the majority of changes in all measured redox markers are found in coronary blood, especially related to the activity of antioxidant components. In patients with an unstable form of angina, prooxidants (superoxide anion radical and index of lipid peroxidation) and endogenous antioxidants (catalase, superoxide dismutase and reduced glutathione) are in direct correlation with the course of ischemic disease. Future studies, where participants would be randomized depending on symptom duration, are necessary to confirm these conclusions.

(1) Background: The aim of our study was to determine the role of oxidative stress (OS) during early evaluation of acute ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-elevated myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients in order to define the role of redox balance in profiling the development of myocardial infarction (MI). (2) Methods: This prospective observational case-control study included 40 consecutive STEMI and 39 NSTEMI patients hospitalized in the coronary care unit of the cardiology clinic at the Kragujevac Clinical Center, Serbia, between 1 January 2016 and 1 January 2017. Blood samples were collected from all patients for measuring cardio-specific enzymes at admission and 12 h after admission to evaluate systemic oxidative stress biomarkers and the activity of antioxidant enzymes. (3) Results: In this study, participants were predominately female (52%), with a mean age of 56.17 ± 1.22 years old in the STEMI group and 69.17 ± 3.65 in the non-STEMI group. According to the Killip classification, the majority of patients (>50%) were at the second and third level. We confirmed the elevation of superoxide anion radicals in the non-STEMI group 6 h after admission in comparison with the STEMI and CTRL groups, but levels had decreased 12 h after admission. Levels of hydrogen peroxide were statistically significantly increased in the NSTEMI group. A positive correlation of superoxide anion radicals and levels of troponin I at admission was observed (r = 0.955; p = 0.045), as well as an inverse correlation between reduced glutathione and levels of NT-pBNP measured 6 h after admission (r = −0.973; p = 0.027). (4) Conclusions: We confirmed that superoxide anion radicals and reduced glutathione observed together with hs-troponin I at admission and NT-pBNP during hospital treatment could be predictors of ST evolution.

Archeology - Abstract
The article discusses practices of cooperation between metal detectorists and professional archaeologists in Germany by exploring the approach of the regional office for historic preservation (Generaldirektion Kulturelles Erbe) in Speyer (Rheinland-Pfalz, southwest Germany). Its model is based on open access to a permit for detecting in a certain area, combined with regular meetings in order to establish knowledge circulation between volunteer and professional spheres. Relying on ethnographic fieldwork and questionnaires, the research shows that the approach creates a symmetric coproduction of knowledge, recognizing the metal detectorists as volunteer researchers producing genuine knowledge. Several theoretical aspects of knowledge circulation are analyzed with regard to their relevance for practices of knowledge production. The enactment of the boundary between public and professionals is the result of boundary work actively performed. As a consequence, this boundary should rather be seen as a fluid, hybrid zone, conceptualized as a translation zone. The concept of boundary objects points to the importance of specific elements for enabling circulation of knowledge between different spheres. Various communities of practice and their shared practices, conventions, perceptions, et cetera, influence the relationship and knowledge circulation, and these should be taken into account in coproduction processes.

Object Preoperative image-based neuronavigation-assisted endoscopy during intracranial procedures is gaining great interest. This study aimed to analyze the precision of navigation-assisted endoscopy according to the navigation setup, the type of optic and its working angulation. Methods A custom-made box with four screws was referenced. The navigation-assisted endoscope was aligned on the screws (targets). The precision on the navigation screen was defined as the virtual distance-to-target between the tip of the endoscope and the center of the screws. Three modifiers were assessed: (1) the distance D between the box and the reference array (CLOSE 13 cm – MIDDLE 30 cm – FAR 53 cm), (2) the distance between the tip of the endoscope and the navigation array on the endoscope (close 5 cm – middle 10 cm – far 20 cm), (3) the working angulation of the endoscope (0°-endoscope and 30°-endoscope angled at 90° and 45° with the box). Results The median precision was 1.3 mm (Q1: 1.1; Q3: 1.7) with the best setting CLOSE/close. The best setting in surgical condition (CLOSE/far) showed a distance-to-target of 2.3 mm (Q1: 1.9; Q3: 2.5). The distance D was correlated to the precision (Spearman rho = 0.82), but not the distance d (Spearman rho = 0.04). The type of optic and its angulation with the box were also correlated to the precision (Spearman rho = − 0.37). The best setting was the use of a 30°-endoscope angled at 45° (1.4 mm (Q1: 1.0; Q3: 1.9)). Conclusion Navigated-assisted endoscopy is feasible and offers a good precision. The navigation setup should be optimized, reducing the risk of inadvertent perifocal damage.

Understanding the degree of facial mobility upon postural changes is of great clinical relevance especially if facial assessment, facial measurements and/or facial markings are done in an upright position, but facial procedures are performed in a supine position.The objective of this study is to investigate regional facial skin displacement and facial volume changes in individuals between upright and supine positions.This multi-center study analyzed a total of 175 study participants with a mean age of 35.0 (10.2) years and a mean body mass index of 24.71 (3.5) kg/msup2/sup. 3D surface scanning technology with automated registration and alignment was utilized, and multivariate analyses were performed with adjustment for age, gender, body mass index, facial skin sagging and laxity.The medial face displaced less than the lateral face in both cranial (0.88 mm) and in lateral (0.76 mm) directions, and the lower face displaced more than the middle face in both cranial (1.17 mm) and lateral directions (1.37 mm). Additionally, the medial face lost, on average, 3.00cc whereas the lateral face increased by 5.86cc in volume; the middle face increased by 2.95cc, whereas the lower face decreased by 0.98cc in volume. All plt; 0.001.Practitioners should be mindful that there is a statistically significant change in facial soft tissues between the upright and supine positions and that the magnitude of the change does not necessarily reflect on the aging process alone but is a multi-factorial process which should be individualized for each patient's needs.This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

Background Clinical complexity is increasingly prevalent among patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). The ‘Atrial fibrillation Better Care’ (ABC) pathway approach has been proposed to streamline a more holistic and integrated approach to AF care; however, there are limited data on its usefulness among clinically complex patients. We aim to determine the impact of ABC pathway in a contemporary cohort of clinically complex AF patients. Methods From the ESC-EHRA EORP-AF General Long-Term Registry, we analysed clinically complex AF patients, defined as the presence of frailty, multimorbidity and/or polypharmacy. A K-medoids cluster analysis was performed to identify different groups of clinical complexity. The impact of an ABC-adherent approach on major outcomes was analysed through Cox-regression analyses and delay of event (DoE) analyses. Results Among 9966 AF patients included, 8289 (83.1%) were clinically complex. Adherence to the ABC pathway in the clinically complex group reduced the risk of all-cause death (adjusted HR [aHR]: 0.72, 95%CI 0.58–0.91), major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs; aHR: 0.68, 95%CI 0.52–0.87) and composite outcome (aHR: 0.70, 95%CI: 0.58–0.85). Adherence to the ABC pathway was associated with a significant reduction in the risk of death (aHR: 0.74, 95%CI 0.56–0.98) and composite outcome (aHR: 0.76, 95%CI 0.60–0.96) also in the high-complexity cluster; similar trends were observed for MACEs. In DoE analyses, an ABC-adherent approach resulted in significant gains in event-free survival for all the outcomes investigated in clinically complex patients. Based on absolute risk reduction at 1 year of follow-up, the number needed to treat for ABC pathway adherence was 24 for all-cause death, 31 for MACEs and 20 for the composite outcome. Conclusions An ABC-adherent approach reduces the risk of major outcomes in clinically complex AF patients. Ensuring adherence to the ABC pathway is essential to improve clinical outcomes among clinically complex AF patients.

Background:PREDICT was a Canadian, multicenter, prospective, observational study in adults naïve to onabotulinumtoxinA treatment for chronic migraine (CM). We descriptively assess health resource utilization, work productivity, and acute medication use.Methods:OnabotulinumtoxinA (155–195 U) was administered every 12 weeks over 2 years (≤7 treatment cycles). Participants completed a 4-item health resource utilization questionnaire and 6-item Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: Specific Health Problem V2.0. Acute medication use was recorded in daily headache diaries. Treatment-emergent adverse events were recorded throughout the study.Results:A total of 197 participants were enrolled, and 184 received ≥1 treatment with onabotulinumtoxinA and were included in the analysis. Between baseline and the final visit, there were decreases in the percentage of participants who reported headache-related healthcare professional visit(s) (96.2% to 76.8%) and those who received headache-related diagnostic testing (37.5% to 9.9%). Reductions from baseline were also observed in the mean number of headache-related visits to an emergency room/urgent care clinic (2.5 to 1.4) and median headache-related hospital admissions (4.0 to 1.0). OnabotulinumtoxinA improved work productivity and reduced the mean (standard deviation) number of hours missed from work over a 7-day period (6.1 [9.7] to 3.0 [6.8]). Mean (standard deviation) acute medication use decreased from baseline (15.2 [7.6] to 9.1 [6.5] days). No new safety signals were identified.Conclusions:Real-world evidence from PREDICT demonstrates that onabotulinumtoxinA treatment for CM in the Canadian population reduces health resource utilization and acute medication use and improves workplace productivity, supporting the long-term benefits of using onabotulinumtoxinA for CM.

Background Neuromodulators have proven efficacy in reducing facial rhytides and have also been reported to improve jawline contour and the appearance of platysmal bands. Lifting effects of the tail of the eyebrow are expected outcomes when targeting the lateral periorbital region, underscoring the versatility of neuromodulator treatments. Objectives The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical effectiveness of a novel neuromodulator-based injection algorithm with regards to its ability to reposition the middle and lower facial soft tissues. Methods Seventy-five study participants (8 males, 67 females) with a mean [standard deviation] age of 37.5 [8.5] years were injected with neuromodulators in the subdermal plane of the mandibular soft tissues following a standardized algorithm. Live rating of clinical appearance was performed, as well as volume change and skin vector displacement measured by 3-dimensional imaging at baseline, Day 14, and Day 30. Results Three-dimensional volume analysis revealed an increase in midfacial volume by 0.46 mL, and a decrease of the lower facial volume by 0.30 mL compared with baseline. Additionally, an improvement of midfacial fullness (by 0.13) and jawline contour (by 0.44) was reported on clinical rating scales at Day 30 compared with baseline. Conclusions Facial soft tissues can be repositioned during the 30-day follow-up period following a neuromodulator treatment; this was reflected through an increase in midfacial volume as well as through a decrease in lower facial volume. The novel injection algorithm presented can provide a safe and effective option for patients desiring improvement of midfacial fullness and jawline contour with neuromodulator treatment alone. Level of Evidence: 4

Davidovic, Anna, Joinson, Adam, Talbot, Catherine, and Hamilton-Giachritsis, Catherine
- Abstract
Incidents of online harassment are increasing and can have significant consequences for victims. Witnesses (‘digital bystanders’) can be crucial in identifying and challenging harassment. This study considered when and how young adults intervene online, with the aim of understanding the applicability of existing theoretical models (i.e., Bystander Intervention Model; Response Decision-Making Framework). Thematic analysis of eight focus groups (UK community sample, N=67, 18-25 years) resulted in five themes: Noticing and Interpreting the Harassment, Perceived Responsibility for Helping, Consequences of Intervening, Perceived Ability to Make a Difference, and Deciding How to Help. The online context amplified offline preferences, such as greater preference for anonymity and perceived costs of intervention (e.g., social costs). Intervention strategies varied in visibility and effort, preferring ‘indirect’ micro-interventions focused on supporting victims. A new, merged model specific to digital bystanders is proposed, with implications for the design and messaging on Social Networking Sites (SNS) discussed.

Artificial Intelligence ,Computer Science (miscellaneous) ,Information Systems - Abstract
This paper maintains that the just war tradition provides a useful framework for analyzing ethical issues related to the development of weapons that incorporate artificial intelligence (AI), or “AI-enabled weapons.” While development of any weapon carries the risk of violations of jus ad bellum and jus in bello, AI-enabled weapons can pose distinctive risks of these violations. The article argues that developing AI-enabled weapons in accordance with jus ante bellum principles of just preparation for war can help minimize the risk of these violations. These principles impose two obligations. The first is that before deploying an AI-enabled weapon a state must rigorously test its safety and reliability, and conduct review of its ability to comply with international law. Second, a state must develop AI-enabled weapons in ways that minimize the likelihood that a security dilemma will arise, in which other states feel threatened by this development and hasten to deploy such weapons without sufficient testing and review. Ethical development of weapons that incorporate AI therefore requires that a state focus not only on its own activity, but on how that activity is perceived by other states.

Biochemistry ,General Environmental Science - Abstract
Childhood internalizing disorders refer to inwardly focused negative behaviours such as anxiety, depression, and somatic complains. Interactions between psychosocial, genetic, and environmental risk factors adversely impact neurodevelopment and can contribute to internalizing disorders. While prenatal exposure to single endocrine disruptors (ED) is associated with internalizing behaviours in infants, the associations with prenatal exposure to ED in mixture remain poorly addressed. In addition, the biological mediators of ED mixture effects on internalizing behaviours remain unexplored. ED do not only interfere with endocrine function, but also with immune function and inflammatory processes. Based on this body of evidence, we hypothetised that inflammation at birth is a plausible biological pathway through which ED prenatal exposure could operate to influence offspring internalizing behaviours. Based on the EDEN birth cohort, we investigated whether ED mixture exposure increased the odds of internalizing disorders in 459 boy infants at age 3, and whether the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α measured at birth are mediators of this effect. To determine both the joint and individual associations of ED prenatal exposure with infant internalizing behaviours and the possible mediating role of cytokines, we used the counterfactual hierarchical Bayesian Kernel Machine Regression (BKMR) regression-causal mediation analysis. We show that prenatal exposure to a complex ED mixture has limited effects on internalizing behaviours in boys at age 3. We also show that IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α are unlikely mediators or suppressors of ED mixture effects on internalizing behaviours. Further studies on larger cohorts are warranted to refine the deleterious effects of ED mixtures on internalizing behaviours and identify possible mediating pathways.

Background/Aim. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory lung disorder. The effect of asthma drugs on oral health is still the subject of debate among researchers in dentistry. The aim of this study was t o e valuate dental status in asthmatic children and evaluate the possible effect of drugs treating asthma on dental health. Methods. Study participants were divided into two groups: the asthma (AG) and the non-asthma (NAG) group. Based on the symptoms of asthma and the possibility for effective control of the disease, the AG group was divided into two subgroups. The oral examination of the teeth was per-formed using a probe and mouth mirror under artificial light in accordance with the recommendations of the World Health Organization. Saliva analysis was carried out by the GC Saliva-Check Buffer, according to the manufacturer's instructions. Results. The study included 136 children aged 6 to 16 years (10.5 ? 3.3). The mean of decayed, missing, and filled teeth (dmft/DMFT) of the children in the AG group (6.0 ? 4.0/3.3 ? 4.4) was higher than in the NAG group (4.8 ? 4.4/2.5 ? 3.4), but significant differences were not observed between the groups. Salivary pH values were found to be similar in both groups, but the quantity and buffering capacity of the stimulated saliva were found to be significantly lower in the AG group (p < 0.001 and p < 0.05, respectively). Conclusion. Although the prevalence of dental caries in the AG group was similar to that of the NAG group in this study, decreased quantity and buffering capacity of the stimulated saliva in the A G group may contribute to higher values of dental caries in asthmatic children in the future.

Introduction/Objective. The objective was to present the results and technical considerations from high-volume center when performing late open surgical conversion (LOSC) after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) in ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (RAAA) patients. Methods. This was a single center retrospective study. LOSC was performed whenever eventual endovascular reintervention failed, was not feasible due to hostile anatomy and unavailability of specific endograft materials, or when patient was hemodynamically unstable necessitating emergent surgery. Results. All previously implanted EVARs had bimodular configuration with suprarenal fixation. Total endograft explantation was performed in 40% of patients. Hospital mortality was 20%. Both patients who died had total endograft explantation with supraceliac clamp lasting more than 30 minutes. 30-day mortality was 30%, with one more patient who died from pulmonary embolism after hospital discharge and two hospital deaths were due to myocardial infarction. Conclusion. LOSC due to RAAA after previous EVAR carries greater mortality for the patient, suggesting multifactorial impacts on the outcome. The appropriate choice of surgical method and technical success are of ultimate importance, with total graft explantation having negative impact on patient?s survival.

Ocean Engineering - Abstract
Introduction. Due to its simplicity, sliding mechanism is very often used in clinical practice for post-extraction space closure, however, the efficiency of this method may be reduced due to friction and changes in the properties of the materials used in this method. The most commonly used methods of sliding mechanics are nickel titanium (NiTi) closed coil spring and elastic chain. The aim of this study was to analyze force degradation in the application of nickel titanium closed coil springs and elastic chains during post-extraction space closure within treatment with fixed orthodontic appliances. Material and Methods. The total sample in this study consisted of 78 post-extraction spaces in patients who were indicated for extraction of first premolars and treatment with fixed orthodontic appliances. Nickel titanium closed coil springs and elastic chains were used to close the post-extraction spaces. Post-extraction spaces were monitored for 6 months with follow up examinations every 4 weeks. Measurements of initial force, at the beginning of mechanism activation and residual force in the observation period were performed during control examinations. Results. Results of this research showed that with both methods of sliding mechanism there was a significant decrease in the observation period. When using NiTi closed coil springs, the value of average initial force at control examination was between 189.00-210.25 g, while residual was in the range of 117.56-133.50 g that NiTi closed coil springs kept an average 61.57% of initial force. The average initial force on the control examinations for elastic chains was between 184.5-205.38 g, while residual force was in range of 100.39-113.00 g, that elastic chains retained an average 53.41% of initial force. Conclusion. There was a significant force degradation between inspections, when sliding mechanics were applied. The loss of force between activation phases of NiTi closed coil springs was smaller compared to the forces produced by elastic chains.

Introduction/Objective. Our study aimed to estimate the prevalence of glaucoma and its subtypes in the population of Novi Sad, Vojvodina, Serbia, and provide the demographic and clinical analysis of glaucoma patients involved. Methods. Our study was designed as an observational, retrospective, cross-sectional, monocentric, including all the patients with the address of residence within the city of Novi Sad, with clinically diagnosed glaucoma, at least in one eye, treated at the University Eye Clinic, Clinical Centre of Vojvodina, Novi Sad. We analyzed the five-year prevalence of different types of glaucoma, together with the characteristics of visual field and risk factors in the form of coexisting diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension. Results. Almost half of 3254 included patients (48.28%) were diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), and its prevalence in the total population of Novi Sad was estimated to be 0.46%. The prevalence of other glaucoma types was as follows: primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) 0.17%, secondary glaucoma 0.09%, pseudoexfoliation glaucoma 0.09%, normal-tension glaucoma 0.13%, pigmentary glaucoma 0.01%, and juvenile glaucoma 0.01%. In the population above 40 years of age, the prevalence of all glaucoma cases was 1.9%, while the prevalence of POAG was 0.93%, and the prevalence of PACG was 0.35%. Conclusion. Our study represents the first attempt to address the epidemiological problems of glaucoma in our region in a comprehensive, evidence-based way. The prevalence of various glaucoma types and observed age-specific prevalence trends were lower than those published by other authors involving comparable populations, and we offered several potential explanations for this in our paper.

Introduction/Objective. The objective of the study was to determine the difference in peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in patients with open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in comparison to the healthy population and according to the progression of the disease. Methods. Four groups were formed among 120 patients: group without glaucoma, early, moderate POAG, and preperimetric glaucoma group. Visual field and optical coherent tomography were performed. Results. RNFL thickness value was found to be the highest in the inferior quadrant, the second highest in the superior one, the third highest in the nasal one, and the lowest value was found to be in the temporal quadrant. The highest average value of RNFL thickness was in the superior quadrant of the healthy group (124.3 ? 17.8 ?m), and the lowest one was in the temporal quadrant of the moderate group (46.5 ? 10.8 ?m). Other RNFL thickness values per quadrants among groups were distributed between these two endpoints. Mean value of peripapillary RNFL thickness (AvgThic) in patients with moderate POAG was lesser than in patients with early POAG, which, in turn, was lesser than that in the healthy subjects (59.6 ? 10.6 ?m vs. 73.4 ? 12.1 ?m vs. 105.5 ? 11.3 ?m). AvgThic in the preperimetric glaucoma group was 83.6 ? 9.2 ?m. Pearson correlation showed a high positive correlation between mean deviation values and the following parameters: AvgThic, S, I, Smax, Imax, Savg, Iavg. Receiver operating characteristic curves found that the parameter with the best diagnostic ability was AvgThic, with the area of 0.803 (< 0.0005), sensitivity of 67%, and specificity of 83.3%. Conclusion. Peripapillary RNFL thickness parameters AvgThic, S, I, Smax, Savg, Iavg, Imax have an excellent ability to discriminate between healthy eyes and eyes with POAG. The parameter with the highest specificity and sensitivity is AvgThic, which makes it the best for early detection and monitoring of POAG.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and renal impairment share a bidirectional relationship with important pathophysiological interactions. We evaluated the impact of renal impairment in a contemporary cohort of patients with AF. Methods: We utilised the ESC-EHRA EORP-AF Long-Term General Registry. Outcomes were analysed according to renal function by CKD-EPI equation. The primary endpoint was a composite of thromboembolism, major bleeding, acute coronary syndrome and all-cause death. Secondary endpoints were each of these separately including ischaemic stroke, haemorrhagic event, intracranial haemorrhage, cardiovascular death and hospital admission. Results: A total of 9306 patients were included. The distribution of patients with no, mild, moderate and severe renal impairment at baseline were 16.9%, 49.3%, 30% and 3.8%, respectively. AF patients with impaired renal function were older, more likely to be females, had worse cardiac imaging parameters and multiple comorbidities. Among patients with an indication for anticoagulation, prescription of these agents was reduced in those with severe renal impairment, p 2 decrease), that was most notable in patients with eGFR 2 (HR 2.21 [95% CI, 1.23–3.99] compared to eGFR ≥90 ml/min/1.73 m 2). Conclusion: A significant proportion of patients with AF suffer from concomitant renal impairment which impacts their overall management. Furthermore, renal impairment is an independent predictor of major adverse events including thromboembolism, major bleeding, acute coronary syndrome and all-cause death in patients with AF.

Gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) analysis is a contemporary and innovative computational method for the assessment of textural patterns, applicable in almost any area of microscopy. The aim of our research was to perform the GLCM analysis of cell nuclei in Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast cells after the induction of sublethal cell damage with ethyl alcohol, and to evaluate the performance of various machine learning (ML) models regarding their ability to separate damaged from intact cells. For each cell nucleus, five GLCM parameters were calculated: angular second moment, inverse difference moment, GLCM contrast, GLCM correlation, and textural variance. Based on the obtained GLCM data, we applied three ML approaches: neural network, random trees, and binomial logistic regression. Statistically significant differences in GLCM features were observed between treated and untreated cells. The multilayer perceptron neural network had the highest classification accuracy. The model also showed a relatively high level of sensitivity and specificity, as well as an excellent discriminatory power in the separation of treated from untreated cells. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate that it is possible to create a relatively sensitive GLCM-based ML model for the detection of alcohol-induced damage in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell nuclei.

The purpose of this study was to examine demographic and baseline characteristics of patients with vascular injuriesof extremities and to define the most relevant factors which influenced an early outcome, as well as limb salvage after the management of vascular trauma.This study used the database that included 395 patients with peripheral arterial injuries, who were treated in the tertiary vascular university center in the period between 2005-2020. Exclusion criteria were isolated thoracic, abdominal and neck injuries as well as iatrogenic injuries and injuries of intravenous addicts. Univariate binary logistic regression analysis and multiple logistic regression were used to determine risk factors for lomb loss (after vascular reconstruction) or mortality. Decision to perform primary amputation (without vascular reconstruction) was based on surgeons' preference and experience.Out of 395 vascular injuries treated in the period 2005-2020, 210 (53.2%) presented with non-iatrogenic vascular injuries of upper and lower extremities were analyzed. According to the univariate regression analysis, hemorrhage as the main clinical manifestation on admission (p=0.035) and early reintervention (p=0.048) increased, while an early patency of repaired artery (0.010) significantly decreased a 30-day amputation rate. Multivariate logistic regression analysis of these three variables showed that only early patency of repaired artery significantly decreased the early amputation rate (p=0.009).Based on presented experience, the patency of vascular reconstruction plays a crucial role in limb salvage in patients with non-iatrogenic peripheral vascular injuries. All factors that might influence the patency should be in focus of improvement.

Backgrounds and Objectives: To analyze the influence of multiple anti-VEGF intravitreal injections for exudative age-related macular degeneration on the thickness of peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and macular ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GC + IPL) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Materials and Methods: A prospective interventional study of consecutive patients treated with intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) was performed. Average and sectorial values of RNFL and GC + IPL thickness were recorded using Cirrus SD-OCT at 0, 6, 12, and 24 months. Patients suffering from any ocular disease that could affect RNFL or GC + IPL thickness were excluded. Results: A total of 135 patients (70 women and 65 men, aged 65 ± 15 years) were included. The average number of injections per patient was 12.4 ± 2.4. Average RNFL and GC + IPL thickness prior to the first injection (87.6 ± 12.2 and 47.2 ± 15.5 respectively), and after 24-month follow-up (86.2 ± 12.6 and 46.7 ± 11.9 respectively) did not differ significantly (p > 0.05). There was a significant decrease in GC2, GC5 segments, and minimum GC + IPL thickness. Conclusion: Repeated anti-VEGF treatment did not cause significant changes in the thickness of RNFL and GC + IPL layers over a period of 24 months. The detected decrease in GC2 and GC5 sectors, as well as in minimum GC + IPL thickness, could be a sign of ganglion cell damage induced by the treatment or could occur during the natural course of the disease.

Meaningful human control over AI is exalted as a key tool for assuring safety, dignity, and responsibility for AI and automated decision-systems. It is a central topic especially in fields that deal with the use of AI for decisions that could cause significant harm, like AI-enabled weapons systems. This paper argues that discussions regarding meaningful human control commonly fail to identify the purpose behind the call for meaningful human control and that stating that purpose is a necessary step in deciding how best to institutionalize meaningful human control over AI. The paper identifies 5 common purposes for human control and sketches how different purpose translate into different institutional design.

The wide range of Blockchain (BC) applications and BC’s ubiquity come from the fact that BC, as a collection of records linked to each other, is strongly resistant to alteration, protected using cryptography, and maintained autonomously. All these benefits come with a cost, which in BC is expressed by a very high use of energy needed to execute consensus protocols. Traditionally, consensus protocols based on Proof-of-Work (PoW) ensure fairness, but are not very useful. The paradigm proposed in the recent literature, known as Proof-of-Useful-Work (PoUW), assumes the completion of additional useful work for the same amount of resources (energy) used. However, the majority of the proposed PoUW approaches do not adequately consider fairness in balancing and controlling the difficulty of the work miners need to perform. A minority of the studies that do address fairness in miners’ work utilize PoW as a tool to ensure it. Therefore, a general framework to provide a structure for understanding the difficulty of useful work and how it can be used to fine-tune the complexity of miners’ effort in PoUW-based consensus protocols is proposed in this paper. The main characteristic of the proposed framework is that controlling the difficulty and fairness of miners’ work in PoUW-based consensus protocols is achieved exclusively through the useful work. The modules of the framework are discussed, and many research challenges and opportunities are articulated. The benefits of the proposed approach are illustrated taking as an example two optimization algorithms for a variant of the scheduling problem. In addition, the steps that should be taken to make this general framework applicable to any PoUW-based consensus protocols are identified.

log normal distribution ,electrical mobility ,Mie scattering ,equivalent optical diameter - Abstract
Atmospheric aerosols in urban areas typically consist of particles of different diameters, which can range in size from a few nanometers to a few micrometers and can have a strong impact on human health [1,2]. This motivates the need to measure aerosol concentration accurately, but it is often also necessary to combine results from several instruments, with fundamentally different measurement principles. In this work, methods based on the measurement of the electrical mobility of particles, for the range of diameters from 10nm to 420nm, and the measurement of the equivalent optical diameter, for the range of diameters from 300nm to 10um, were used. Combining the overlapping region in two size distribution spectra can be used to infer equivalent optical properties of the ambient aerosol, and examples of measured and combined spectra in several urban hot spots in Bay of Kotor are analyzed in some detail. These examples will illustrate several aspects of urban aerosol properties not readily available in a typical regulatory monitoring setting, such as distribution of modes in number and mass concentration, as well as optical properties of measured aerosol. As the main result, examples of combining particle size spectrums are presented. In the process of combining the particle size spectra, it is possible to modify the distribution obtained by optical measurements by searching for the optimal value of the refractive index of the particles to obtain the best possible agreement with the size distribution obtained by measuring the electrical mobility. An equivalent refractive index as well as the equivalent shape factor of the ambient aerosol is obtained using Mie scattering theory as a theoretical framework [3]. The measurement results from the mobile monitoring campaign in Bay of Kotor in 2017 were used to elucidate the main principles of size spectrum combination, as well as to showcase diversity of equivalent optical properties of urban aerosols. Funding for this work has been provided by the EU H2020 Framework Programme for research and innovation under grant agreement no 952433 (VIDIS); Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development of the Republic of Serbia under contract number 451-03-47/2023-01/ 200017 which is being realized in Vinca Institute of Nuclear Sciences.

36. Lee Teodora Gušić: Theater im Krieg – Friedenstheater?

Lee Teodora Gušić ,Frieden ,Theater ,Krieg - Abstract
Sowohl im Theater als auch in der Literatur mangelt es an Auseinandersetzungen mit weiblichen Erfahrungen der Jugoslawienkriege, kritisiert die Germanistin, Aktivistin und Künstlerin Lee Teodora Gušićs. Ferner konstatiert sie, dass in der literaturwissenschaftlichen Forschung die Darstellung sowie die Verhandlung von Krieg und Gewalt in Theatertexten meist nur mit starken Bezügen zur Prosa untersucht wird. Analysen von Stücken über weibliche Erfahrungen im Kontext der Jugoslawienkriege, die zudem von Frauen geschrieben wurden, sind laut Gušić kaum in der deutschsprachigen Literaturwissenschaft vorzufinden. Deshalb widmet sie sich in ihrer Dissertation Theater im Krieg – Friedenstheater? Theaterstücke zu den Jugoslawienkriegen 1991–1999 der Triade Theater – Frauen – (Jugoslawien)kriege sowie deren wechselseitigem Verhältnis. Dabei beschäftigt sich die Autorin mit der Frage, wie die ausgewählten Werke, die zwischen 1995 und 2011 entstanden sind, mit den Jugoslawienkriegen von 1991 bis 1999 umgehen. Den Fokus ihrer Untersuchung setzt Gušić auf die Bereiche Komik und Gewalt sowie auf die Konzeption der Frauenfiguren und deren Sprache. Im Mittelpunkt der Untersuchung stehen die fünf Stücke Blasted/Zerbombt (1995) von Sarah Kane, Belgrader Trilogie von Biljana Srbljanović (1999), DIE PAVILLONS oder Wohin gehe ich, woher komme ich und was gibt’s zum Abendessen von Milena Marković (2001), Žena bomba/Bombenfrau von Ivana Sajko (2003) sowie sophia or while i almost ask for more or a parable of the ruler and the wisdom (2011) von Simona Semenić. Ergänzend zieht Gušić weitere Dramentexte der genannten Autorinnen heran. Aufführungen und Performances anderer Künstler*innen, die laut Gušić die Fragestellungen erhellen, werden ebenfalls besprochen, woraus sie einen umfangreichen Untersuchungskorpus sowie zahlreiche intertextuelle und interkulturelle Bezüge erschließt. Die Auswahl der fünf Theatertexte begründet Gušić damit, dass alle Autorinnen innerhalb eines europäischen geographischen Raums zu verorten sind, alle international einen gewissen Bekanntheitsgrad erlangt haben, über sexualisierte Gewalt schreiben sowie alle der gleichen Generation angehören (sie sind zwischen 1970 und 1975 geboren) und somit alle von Krieg – wenn auch auf unterschiedliche Weise – beeinflusst wurden. Die Jugoslawienkriege verortet Gušić ebenfalls innerhalb eines europäischen Kontextes und bezeichnet diese als die "ersten europäischen Kriege nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg" (S. 16). Sie verweist kritisch darauf, dass das Gebiet der Nachfolgestaaten Jugoslawiens häufig unter dem Codewort "Balkan" als vermeintlich "wild und chaotisch" zusammengefasst wird. Der sozialistische Vielvölkerstaat Jugoslawien und seine emanzipatorischen Errungenschaften (hohe Alphabetisierungsrate, Reisefreiheit oder starke Säkularisierung) würden somit in den Hintergrund geraten und die jugoslawische Frauenbewegung auf "Vergewaltigungen auf dem Balkan" zurückgeworfen. Die Studie ist in zehn Kapitel gegliedert. Im ersten Kapitel stellt Gušić ihr Forschungsinteresse, den Gesamtkorpus, ihre Hypothesen sowie den daraus resultierenden umfangreichen Fragekatalog vor, den sie in vier Bereiche unterteilt ("Fragebereiche A bis D", S. 16). Neben der Rolle von Erinnern, Gedenken und Verarbeiten untersucht Gušić auch, inwiefern sich die Jugoslawienkriege und deren Folgen auf andere Konflikte und Kriege übertragen lassen. Daneben soll die Lesart der Stücke, die Geschlechterkonstruktionen, die Darstellung von Gewalt und schließlich "Humor, Witz und Groteske sowie ihr Verhältnis zu Krieg und Theater" diskutiert werden (S. 47). Schilderungen positiver Erfahrungen von Krieg möchte Gušić in den ausgewählten Werken ebenfalls herausarbeiten, was vor dem Hintergrund der darin äußerst brutal geschilderten Gewalt und Zerstörung besonders interessant erscheint. Denn dadurch tun sich nicht nur Widersprüche und Brüche in der Rezeption auf, sondern auch Momente der Hoffnung. Folglich soll aufgezeigt werden, inwiefern die Beispiele "kommunikativ-versöhnliche, heilsame Elemente enthalten" (S. 18). Somit rückt auch die Bedeutung von Sprache und Kommunikation im Kontext von Krieg in den Blick der Untersuchung sowie die Frage, inwiefern Kommunikation als Mittel der Konfliktlösung und -bewältigung in den ausgewählten Theatertexten enthalten ist. Mit diesem Vorhaben spannt die Autorin einen Bogen zum titelgebenden "Friedenstheater" in ihrer Arbeit, welches sie erst im letzten Teil des zweiten Kapitels genauer definiert (vgl. S. 57f). Vorab hält sie hierzu fest, dass Theater vor allem in Serbien während des Milošević-Regimes alternative Sichtweisen zu den kontrollierten Staatsmedien bot. Unerwähnt bleiben jedoch Theaterinszenierungen, die der politischen Agenda des Milošević-Regimes sowie der xenophoben Propaganda der 1990er Jahre zuspielten, indem sie Themen aufgriffen, die auf das serbische Opfernarrativ zu jener Zeit zugeschnitten waren. Bezogen auf die Theatertexte von Kane, Sajko, Srbljanović, Marković und Semenić hält die Autorin fest, dass tabuisierte Themen, wie etwa sexualisierte Gewalt, dargestellt und dadurch zur Sprache gebracht werden, was zu einer gesamtgesellschaftlichen Kommunikation darüber beitragen kann. Unter "Friedenstheater" versteht die Autorin schließlich ein Theater mit Held*innen, "die zu gewaltfreien Aktionen finden" (S. 66), beziehungsweise ein Theater, das zu Lernprozessen durch Beobachtung, Einfühlung und Nachahmung friedlicher Konzepte einlädt. Im zweiten Kapitel arbeitet sich Gušić zunächst in knapper Ausführung an dem aktuellen Forschungsstand zum Themenkomplex "Frauen und Krieg" ab. Anschließend diskutiert sie Begriffe wie Konflikt, Aggression, sexualisierte Gewalt und Krieg. Sie differenziert dabei zwischen Konflikt und kriegerischer Gewalt, zwischen physischer und verbaler Gewalt und erläutert nachfolgend geschlechterspezifische Kriegsgewalt. Im anschließenden Unterkapitel zum historischen Kontext der Jugoslawienkriege trägt Gušić hauptsächlich Zahlen zu Vertriebenen und zu Todesopfern der Kriege zusammen und erläutert die Brisanz der (ethnischen) Zugehörigkeitsfrage während der Jugoslawienkriege anhand des starken Nationalismus sowie einer neuen Religiosität zu Beginn der 1990er Jahre. Für die Analyse der Theaterbeispiele erscheint diese Frage jedoch weniger relevant, da die Konflikte in den Stücken nicht auf die ethnische Zugehörigkeit der Figuren zurückzuführen sind, sondernd auf toxische Geschlechterbeziehungen. Im weiteren Verlauf des zweiten Kapitels widmet sich die Autorin der Sprache als Kriegsschauplatz sowie dem Verhältnis von Humor und Krieg. Fragen nach einer kriegsspezifischen Komik sowie einer spezifischen Form von Humor im Kontext von Gender führen sie schließlich zur Schlussfolgerung, dass sich der Humor in den ausgewählten Theaterstücken insbesondere durch Ironie und als friedliches Mittel der Verständigung auszeichnet. Im dritten Kapitel entwirft Gušić einen Forschungsbericht zum Themenkomplex "Theater und Jugoslawienkriege" und diskutiert einzelne Bereiche der zentralen Fragestellungen. Hierzu bespricht sie Theaterstücke und Performances, die nach ihrem Ermessen für das Verständnis der Werke von Kane, Sajko, Srbljanović, Marković und Semenić relevant sind, wie etwa die Performance balkan baroque von Marina Abramović sowie der Einakter Krieg im dritten Stock von Pavel Kohout. In zwei darauffolgenden Unterkapiteln bespricht Gušić weitere Werke zu den Jugoslawienkriegen, um die Besonderheiten der zentralen Analysebeispiele herauszuarbeiten. Stücke von Autoren wie Peter Handke, Slobodan Šnajder und Dejan Dukovski werden mit Inszenierungen von Oliver Frljić verglichen, ohne dabei zwischen Inszenierungen und Theaterstücken zu differenzieren, was beim Lesen stellenweise für Verwirrung sorgt. In den Kapiteln vier bis acht untersucht Gušić chronologisch und beginnend mit Sarah Kanes Blasted die zentralen Analysebeispiele. Dabei sind alle Kapitel ähnlich strukturiert: Nach Angaben zu Biographie der jeweiligen Autorinnen und zur Rezeption ihrer Werke erläutert Gušić die Struktur des Stücks, Handlungsorte, Figurenkonstellationen, die Darstellung von Gewalt sowie Humor und Komik. Gušić arbeitet heraus, dass in allen Stücken Mutterschaft aufgegriffen und thematisiert wird, allerdings wird diese weder idealisiert noch romantisiert. Hinsichtlich des Krieges als gesellschaftlichem Ist-Zustand sowie der gewalttätigen und stets alkoholisierten Vaterfiguren distanzieren sich die weiblichen Figuren von ihrer Schwangerschaft und ihrer bevorstehenden Rolle als Mutter. Trotz der Gewalt, die sie in den Stücken erfahren, die vor allem in Kanes Blasted extreme Ausmaße annimmt, wendet keine der Protagonistinnen Gewalt gegen andere an. Gewalt, die von ihnen ausgeht, richtet sich stets gegen sie selbst. Nichtsdestotrotz beinhalten alle Stücke, laut Gušić, starke Frauenfiguren, die Selbstmord und Schweigen einem Verlust von Selbstkontrolle vorziehen. Auch in der Sprache der weiblichen Figuren spiegelt sich die Ablehnung von Gewalt, da sich – abgesehen von einer Figur in Markovićs Stück – keine der weiblichen Figuren einer gewaltvollen und vulgären Sprache bedient, wohingegen die männlichen Figuren in allen Textbeispielen auf verschiedene Weise gewaltvolle Handlungen vollziehen. Zudem arbeitet Gušić heraus, dass in keinem der Texte die Jugoslawienkriege explizit erwähnt werden, jedoch als Rahmen der jeweiligen Handlungen sowie als Ursache für die psychische Verfasstheit einzelner Figuren greifbar werden. Die geschilderte Kriegsgewalt wird stets als strukturelle Gewalt dargestellt, die auf individueller oder familiärer Ebene und vor allem in den romantischen Beziehungen zwischen den Frauen- und Männerfiguren manifest wird. Zur Frage, inwiefern die Stücke kommunikativ-versöhnliche und heilsame Elemente enthalten, kommt Gušić zu dem Ergebnis, dass sie keine Beispiele für eine gelingende Kommunikation liefern, da die Handlungen in der Darstellung von Kriegsgewalt und häuslicher Gewalt bleiben. Entwürfe für friedliche Lösungsansätze werden – wenn überhaupt – nur angedeutet. Zudem kommt Gušić zu dem Ergebnis, dass die Stücke im Kontext der Jugoslawienkriege zwar spezifisch, aber dennoch auf andere Regionen und Kriege übertragbar sind. Krieg und die daraus resultierende Zerstörung von Menschen und deren Beziehungen, die in allen Textbeispielen eindringlich zur Darstellung kommen, werden somit von geographischen und kulturellen Zusammenhängen losgelöst, wodurch die Ursachen der Konflikte und Kriege von der Herkunft oder Religionszugehörigkeit der Figuren entkoppelt werden. Abgesehen vom verbesserungsbedürftigen Lektorat sowie einigen inhaltlichen Ungenauigkeiten – hinsichtlich der Angaben zu Oliver Frljić etwa oder bei der fehlenden Differenzierung zwischen Theaterstücken als einer literarischen Gattung und Theaterinszenierungen – gelingt es Lee Teodora Gušić mit ihrer Studie zur Triade Theater – Frauen – Jugoslawienkriege, die in den Stücken angelegte, spezifisch weibliche Sicht auf den Krieg präzise herauszuarbeiten. Innovativ und erfreulich zugleich ist zudem ihr Ansatz, Geschlecht als konstitutives Element für eine neue Theaterhistoriographie heranzuziehen und somit eine dezidiert feministische Geschichtsschreibung im Kontext von Theater und Literatur zu verfolgen., [rezens.tfm], Nr. 2023/1

RRED ,risk prediction ,volume ,PWS ,Surgery ,AAA ,ILT - Abstract
ObjectivesThe study aimed to identify differences and compare anatomical and biomechanical features between elective and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs).MethodsData (clinical, anatomical, and biomechanical) of 98 patients with AAA, 75 (76.53%) asymptomatic (Group aAAA) and 23 (23.46%) ruptured AAA (Group rAAA), were prospectively collected and analyzed. Anatomical, morphological, and biomechanical imaging markers like peak wall stress (PWS) and rupture risk equivalent diameter (RRED), comorbid conditions, and demographics were compared between the groups. Biomechanical features were assessed by analysis of Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine images by A4clinics (Vascops), and anatomical features were assessed by 3Surgery (Trimensio). Binary and multiple logistic regression analysis were used and adjusted for confounders. Accuracy was assessed using receiving operative characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.ResultsIn a multivariable model, including gender and age as confounder variables, maximal aneurysm diameter [MAD, odds ratio (OR) = 1.063], relative intraluminal thrombus (rILT, OR = 1.039), and total aneurysm volume (TAV, OR = 1.006) continued to be significant predictors of AAA rupture with PWS (OR = 1.010) and RRED (OR = 1.031). Area under the ROC curve values and correct classification (cc) for the same parameters and the model that combines MAD, TAV, and rILT were measured: MAD (0.790, cc = 75%), PWS (0.713, cc = 73%), RRED (0.717, cc = 55%), TAV (0.756, cc = 79%), rILT (0.656, cc = 60%), and MAD + TAV + rILT (0.797, cc = 82%).ConclusionBased on our results, in addition to MAD, other important predictors of rupture that might be used during aneurysm surveillance are TAV and rILT. Biomechanical parameters (PWS, RRED) as valuable predictors should be assessed in prospective clinical trials. Similar studies on AAA smaller than 55 mm in diameter, even difficult to organize, would be of even greater clinical value.

Systematic Review ,Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine - Abstract
Background Diclofenac is a widely used analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic drug. In several case reports, its use was associated with the occurrence of Kounis syndrome. The aim of this review was to investigate and summarize published cases of Kounis syndrome suspected to be associated with the use of diclofenac. Methods Electronic searches were conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and the Serbian Citation Index. Results Twenty publications describing the 20 patients who met inclusion criteria were included in the systematic review. Specified patient ages ranged from 34 to 81 years. Eighteen (90.0%) patients were male. Five patients (25.0%) reported a previous reaction to diclofenac. Reported time from the used dose of diclofenac to onset of the first reaction symptoms ranged from immediately to 5 hours. Diclofenac caused both type I and type II Kounis syndrome, with the presence of various cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, dermatologic, and respiratory signs and symptoms. Most patients experienced hypotension (n = 15 [75.0%]) and chest pain (n = 12 [60.0%]). The most frequently reported finding on electrocardiogram was ST-segment elevations (n = 17 [85.0%]). Coronary angiogram showed normal coronary vessels in 9 patients (45.0%), with some pathologic findings in 8 patients (40.0%). Conclusion Clinicians should be aware that Kounis syndrome may be an adverse effect of diclofenac. Prompt recognition and withdrawal of the drug, with treatment of both allergic and cardiac symptoms simultaneously, is important.

The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical presentation and contemporary management of arterial thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) in high-volume referral center.We conducted a retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database of patients with TOS of any etiology between January 1Sixty-three consecutive patients underwent surgical treatment due to arterial TOS. Period 2 had more patients who were asymptomatic (N.=16, 44.4% vs. N.=0, 0%, P0.001) and those presenting with critical hand ischemia (N.=12, 33.3% vs. N.=0, 0%, P=0.01), while acute limb ischemia was more common in period 1 (N.=16, 59.2% vs. N.=5, 13.9%, P0.001). SA compression without lesion was more common in period 2 (N.=16, 44.4% vs. N.=0, 0%, P0.001), while SA intimal damage with mural thrombus formation was more common in the period 1 (N.=12, 44.4% vs. N.=1, 2.7%, P0.001). Decompression as an isolated procedure was performed in 25.4% (N.=16) of all asymptomatic patients, while combined decompressive and vascular procedure in 71.4% (N.=45) of patients. The most common postoperative complication was pneumothorax (N.=7, 11.1%).The supraclavicular approach with its modifications provides adequate decompression and allows also repair or reconstruction of the SA, as well as complete additional revascularization of the upper extremity without the need for further patient repositioning. While treatment methods and early outcomes have not changed significantly over time, there has been a trend towards different clinical and SA pathomorphological presentation.

General Medicine - Abstract
Introduction: This systematic review with network meta-analysis aimed at comparing the medium-term results of open surgery (OS), fenestrated endovascular repair (FEVAR), and chimney endovascular repair (ChEVAR) in patients with juxta/pararenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (JAAAs/PAAAs). Materials and methods: MEDLINE, SCOPUS, and Web of Science were searched from inception date to 1st July 2022. Any studies comparing the results of two or three treatment strategies (ChEVAR, FEVAR, or OS) on medium-term outcomes in patients with JAAAs/PAAAs were included. Primary outcomes were all-cause mortality, aortic-related reintervention, and aortic-related mortality, while secondary outcomes were visceral stent/bypass occlusion/occlusion, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), new onset renal replacement therapy (RRT), total endoleaks, and type I/III endoleak. Results: FEVAR (OR = 1.53, 95%CrI 1.03–2.11) was associated with higher medium-term all-cause mortality than OS. Sensitivity analysis including only studies that analysed JAAA showed that FEVAR (OR = 1.65, 95%CrI 1.08–2.33) persisted to be associated with higher medium-term mortality than OS. Both FEVAR (OR = 8.32, 95%CrI 3.80–27.16) and ChEVAR (OR = 5.95, 95%CrI 2.23–20.18) were associated with a higher aortic-related reintervention rate than OS. No difference between different treatment options was found in terms of aortic-related mortality. FEVAR (OR = 13.13, 95%CrI 2.70–105.2) and ChEVAR (OR = 16.82, 95%CrI 2.79–176.7) were associated with a higher rate of medium-term visceral branch occlusion/stenosis compared to OS; however, there was no difference found between FEVAR and ChEVAR. Conclusions: An advantage of OS compared to FEVAR and ChEVAR after mid-term follow-up aortic-related intervention and vessel branch/bypass stenosis/occlusion was found. This suggests that younger, low-surgical-risk patients might benefit from open surgery of JAAA/PAAA as a first approach.

Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine - Abstract
Background It has been recently suggested that more than 15% of patients with ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) lack any of the standard modifiable risk factors (cigarette smoking, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension -SMuRFs). This claim implies that other factors play a significant role in development of STEMI and has led to considerable interest in genetic causes of coronary heart disease including family history (FHx) Purpose To investigate whether FHx may be a significant driver for STEMI in patients without SMuRFs. Methods We analyzed 11,840 patients with ACSs, without evidence of prior cardiovascular disease (CVD) enrolled in the ISACS-TC (International Survey of Acute Coronary Syndromes in Transitional Countries) registry between January 2010 to January 2021. Main outcome measures were the adjusted rates of STEMI and 30-day mortality from STEMI using multivariable logistic regression models. Patients presenting with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes served as controls. Results Among patients with STEMI, at least 1 of the 4 conventional risk factors was present in 88.1% of women and 86.7% of men. Overall, 3,194 patients (27.0%) self-reported a FHx of CV disease, defined as a first-degree relative with premature CV events (men, age Conclusions In direct contrast with recent findings, almost 90% of patients with STEMI have SMuRFs. Self-reported FHx is not a significant risk factor for development of STEMI and related high rate of CV mortality in patients without SMuRFs. Although research on genetic causes of heart disease is important, public health policies, and research efforts should place significant emphasis on the 4 SMuRFs and the lifestyle behaviors causing them to reduce the epidemic of STEMI.

Neuroinflammation has been proposed to impact symptomatology in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. While previous studies have shown equivocal effects of treatments with add-on anti-inflammatory drugs such as Aspirin, N-acetylcysteine and Celecoxib, none have used a subset of prospectively recruited patients exhibiting an inflammatory profile. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety as well as the cost-effectiveness of a treatment with 400 mg Celecoxib added to an ongoing antipsychotic treatment in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders exhibiting an inflammatory profile. The “Add-on Celecoxib treatment in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders and inflammatory cytokine profile trial (TargetFlame)” is a multicentre randomized, placebo-controlled phase III investigator-initiated clinical trial with the following two arms: patients exhibiting an inflammatory profile receiving either add-on Celecoxib 400 mg/day or add-on placebo. A total of 199 patients will be assessed for eligibility by measuring blood levels of three pro-inflammatory cytokines, and 109 patients with an inflammatory profile, i.e. inflamed, will be randomized, treated for 8 weeks and followed-up for additional four months. The primary endpoint will be changes in symptom severity as assessed by total Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) score changes from baseline to week 8. Secondary endpoints include various other measures of psychopathology and safety. Additional health economic analyses will be performed. TargetFlame is the first study aimed at evaluating the efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of the antiphlogistic agent Celecoxib in a subset of patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders exhibiting an inflammatory profile. With TargetFlame, we intended to investigate a novel precision medicine approach towards anti-inflammatory antipsychotic treatment augmentation using drug repurposing.

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of atrial fibrillation(AF) and diabetes mellitus is rising to epidemic proportions. We aimed to assess the impact of diabetes on the management and outcomes of patients with AF.METHODS: The EORP-AF General Long-Term Registry is a prospective, observational registry from 250 centres across 27 European countries. Outcomes of interest were as follows: i)rhythm control interventions; ii)quality of life; iii)healthcare resource utilisation; and iv)major adverse events.RESULTS: Of 11,028 patients with AF, the median age was 71 (63-77) years and 2537 (23.0%) had diabetes. Median follow-up was 24 months. Diabetes was related to increased use of anticoagulation but less rhythm control interventions. Using multivariable analysis, at 2-year follow-up, patients with diabetes were associated with greater levels of anxiety (p = 0.038) compared to those without diabetes. Overall, diabetes was associated with worse health during follow-up, as indicated by Health Utility Score and Visual Analogue Scale. Healthcare resource utilisation was greater with diabetes in terms of length of hospital stay (8.1 (±8.2) vs. 6.1 (±6.7) days); cardiology and internal medicine/general practitioner visits; and emergency room admissions. Diabetes was an independent risk factor of major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE; HR 1.26 [95% CI, 1.04-1.52]), all-cause mortality (HR 1.28 [95% CI, 1.08-1.52]), and cardiovascular mortality (HR 1.41 [95% CI, 1.09-1.83]).CONCLUSION: In this contemporary AF cohort, diabetes was present in 1 in 4 patients and it served as an independent risk factor for reduced quality of life, greater healthcare resource utilisation and excess MACE, all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality. There was increased use of anticoagulation therapy in diabetes but with less rhythm control interventions.

International audience; Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a highly prevalent and harmful medical disorder often comorbid with psychosis where it can contribute to cardiovascular complications. As immune dysfunction is a key shared component of both MetS and schizophrenia (SZ), this study investigated the relationship between immune alterations and MetS in patients with SZ, whilst controlling the impact of confounding clinical characteristics including psychiatric symptoms and comorbidities, history of childhood maltreatment and psychotropic treatments.Method: A total of 310 patients meeting DSM-IV criteria for SZ or schizoaffective disorders (SZA), with or without MetS, were systematically assessed and included in the FondaMental Advanced Centers of Expertise for Schizophrenia (FACE-SZ) cohort. Detailed clinical characteristics of patients, including psychotic symptomatology, psychiatric comorbidities and history of childhood maltreatment were recorded and the serum levels of 18 cytokines were measured. A penalized regression method was performed to analyze associations between inflammation and MetS, whilst controlling for confounding factors.ResultsOf the total sample, 25% of patients had MetS. Eight cytokines were above the lower limit of detection (LLOD) in more than 90% of the samples and retained in downstream analysis. Using a conservative Variable Inclusion Probability (VIP) of 75%, we found that elevated levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-7, IL-12/23 p40 and IL-16 and lower levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were associated with MetS. As for clinical variables, age, sex, body mass index (BMI), diagnosis of SZ (not SZA), age at the first episode of psychosis (FEP), alcohol abuse, current tobacco smoking, and treatment with antidepressants and anxiolytics were all associated with MetS.Conclusion: We have identified five cytokines associated with MetS in SZ suggesting that patients with psychotic disorders and MetS are characterized by a specific “immuno-metabolic” profile. This may help to design tailored treatments for this subgroup of patients with both psychotic disorders and MetS, taking one more step towards precision medicine in psychiatry

International audience; Inflammation appears as a cardinal mediator of the deleterious effect of early life stress exposure on neurodevelopment. More generally, immune activation during the perinatal period, and most importantly elevations of pro-inflammatory cytokines levels could contribute to psychopathology and neurological deficits later in life. Cytokines are also required for normal brain function in homeostatic conditions and play a role in neurodevelopmental processes. Despite these latter studies, whether pro-inflammatory cytokines such as Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) impact neurodevelopmental trajectories and behavior during the immediate postnatal period remains to be elucidated. To address this issue, we have injected mouse pups daily with recombinant TNF from postnatal day (P)1 to P5. This yielded a robust increase in peripheral and central TNF at P5, and also an increase of additional pro-inflammatory cytokines. Compared to control pups injected with saline, mice injected with TNF acquired the righting and the acoustic startle reflexes more rapidly and exhibited increased locomotor activity 2 weeks after birth. Our results extend previous work restricted to adult behaviors and support the notion that cytokines, and notably TNF, modulate early neurodevelopmental trajectories.
