Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to examine the significance of the historical Jesus in contemporary Christologies. Since the Enlightenment the quest of the 'historical Jesus' has influenced the shape of Christology not only in Europe but also in the Third World. We deal with the Christologies which have been formed in different backgrounds so that the roles of the historical Jesus in the Christologies of different cultures could be clear and comparable. Chapter I concentrates on Bultmann's Christology; firstly it approaches the figue of the historical Jesus reconstructed by authentic sayings based on form criticism, secondly it seeks to grasp the exact meaning of the kerygma of the death and resurrection of Christ based on the demythologizing programme. It compares the content of the message of the historical Jesus and that of the post-Easter Church, and examines whether there is any real continuity between the two. Chapter II is confined to examining how Kasemann, Fuchs and Ebeling have developed these issues which have been left unexplained in Bultmann; e.g. for Kasemann we look at how much and in what manner Paul and John were interested in the historical Jesus, and for Fuchs and Ebeling at the faith of Jesus and its meaning in the primitive Church. Focus is given solely to the relationship between the history of Jesus and the Christ of faith. In Chapters I and II, the guiding principle is to see whether there is a contact point between history and faith. Chapter III deals with the Christologies of Boff and Sobrino in Latin America. Through the figure of the historical Jesus in their Christologies, the perspective of liberation Christology and the role of the historical Jesus in society are examined.

Abstract

Objective To describe the technique, safety profile, and outcome of computed tomography (CT)–guided atlanto-axial lateral articulation injections performed at our institution. Methods Consecutive cases of all CT-guided atlanto-axial injections performed from January 2017 to April 2022 at our institution were searched in the electronic medical records. Patient charts were reviewed for demographics, characterization of pain, potential altered anatomy, pain level before and immediately after the procedure, procedure technique, complications, and follow-up outcomes, if available. Results Forty-five injections in 40 different patients were included. The average age was 67.4 years, and 28 (70%) of the patients were female. Of the 45 injections, 43 (96%) were technically successful. The average change in pain score (0–10) from immediately before to immediately after the injection was –3.36 (SD = 2.87, range = –8 to +3). Of all injections, 14 (31%) had a postprocedural pain score of zero. In 2 cases (4%), patients reported an increase in pain score immediately after the injection. In 3 cases (7%), transient non–vertebral artery vascular uptake of contrast was documented during the procedure, which could be cleared with needle repositioning. There were no complications. Conclusion CT-guided atlanto-axial lateral articulation injection is a safe procedure with a high technical success rate. It allows for direct visualization of vital structures and provides an alternative option to the traditional fluoroscopic guidance, especially in cases of prior technically unsuccessful fluoroscopically guided injection or altered anatomy.

Abstract

IMPORTANCE: Vertebral compression fracture (VCF) is a potential adverse effect following treatment with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for spinal metastases. OBJECTIVE: To develop and assess a risk stratification model for VCF after SBRT. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This retrospective cohort study conducted at a high-volume referral center included 331 patients who had undergone 464 spine SBRT treatments from December 2007 through October 2019. Data analysis was conducted from November 1, 2020, to August 17, 2021. Exclusions included proton therapy, prior surgical intervention, vertebroplasty, or missing data. EXPOSURES: One and 3 fraction spine SBRT treatments were most commonly delivered. Single-fraction treatments generally involved prescribed doses of 16 to 24 Gy (median, 20 Gy; range, 16-30 Gy) to gross disease compared with multifraction treatment that delivered a median of 30 Gy (range, 21-50 Gy). MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: The VCF and radiography components of the spinal instability neoplastic score were determined by a radiologist. Recursive partitioning analysis was conducted using separate training (70%), internal validation (15%), and test (15%) sets. The log-rank test was the criterion for node splitting. RESULTS: Of the 331 participants, 88 were women (27%), and the mean (IQR) age was 63 (59-72) years. With a median follow-up of 21 months (IQR, 11-39 months), we identified 84 VCFs (18%), including 65 (77%) de novo and 19 (23%) progressive fractures. There was a median of 9 months (IQR, 3-21 months) to developing a VCF. From 15 candidate variables, 6 were identified using the backward selection method, feature importance testing, and a correlation heatmap. Four were selected via recursive partitioning analysis: epidural tumor extension, lumbar location, gross tumor volume of more than 10 cc, and a spinal instability neoplastic score of more than 6. One point was assigned to each variable, and the resulting multivariable Cox model had a concordance of 0.760. The hazard ratio per 1-point increase for VCF was 1.93 (95% CI, 1.62-2.30; P

Abstract

Background and Purpose Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is caused by spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. This study assessed whether the certainty and/or multifocality of CSF leaks is associated with the severity of intracranial sequelae of SIH.Materials and Methods A retrospective review was completed of patients with suspected SIH that underwent digital subtraction myelogram (DSM) preceded by brain MRI. DSMs were evaluated for the presence or absence of a CSF leak, categorized both as positive/negative/indeterminate and single versus multifocal. Brain MRIs were assessed for intracranial sequelae of SIH based on two probabilistic scoring systems (Dobrocky and Mayo methods). For each system, both an absolute “numerical” score (based on tabulation of findings) and “categorized” score (classification of probability) were tabulated.Results 174 patients were included; 113 (64.9%) were female, average age 52.0 ± 14.3 years. One or more definite leaks were noted in 76 (43.7%) patients; an indeterminate leak was noted in 22 (12.6%) patients. 16 (16.3%) had multiple leaks. There was no significant difference in the severity of intracranial findings between patients with a single versus multiple leaks (pvalues ranged from .36 to .70 using categorized scores and 0.22–0.99 for numerical scores). Definite leaks were more likely to have both higher categorized intracranial scores (Mayo p= .0008, Dobrocky p= .006) and numerical scores (p= .0002 for Mayo and p= .006 for Dobrocky).Conclusions Certainty of a CSF leak on diagnostic imaging is associated with severity of intracranial sequelae of SIH, with definite leaks having significantly more intracranial findings than indeterminate leaks. Multifocal leaks do not cause greater intracranial abnormalities.

Abstract

Background: The objectives of the researchers are as follows: First, to investigate whether intraoperative or postoperative administration of Intravenous (IV) iron supplements in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can contribute to the hemoglobin recovery during the postoperative period (between 4 and 8 weeks after surgery). Second, to examine whether the administration of IV iron supplements during or immediately after TKA in patients undergoing primary TKA can reduce the need for allogenic blood transfusion during hospitalization., Methods: Articles published between January 1, 1990, and June 30, 2023 were searched in PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase. The population, intervention, comparison, and outcome of this study are as follows; Population: Patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty; Intervention: Administration of IV iron supplements during or immediately after surgery; Comparison: Non-administration of IV iron supplements; Outcome: Degree of hemoglobin recovery (between 4 and 8 weeks after surgery) and the need for blood transfusion during hospitalization., Results: There was a statistically significant difference in the amount of change in hemoglobin between iron supplementation group and non-iron supplementation group. The effect size were -0.44 (95% confidence interval: -0.69 to -0.19, P value < .001) in all patients. This means that the amount of change in hemoglobin were significantly reduced in the iron supplementation group than in the non-iron supplementation group. There was a statistically significant difference for post-operative transfusion rate between 2 groups. The effect size were 0.28 (95% confidence interval: 0.10-0.81, P value = .02) in all patients. This means that the post-operative transfusion rate was significantly less in the iron supplementation group than in the non-iron supplementation group., Conclusion: The administration of IV iron supplements during or after TKA surgery increases hemoglobin recovery between 4 and 8 weeks after surgery and reduces the need for allogeneic blood transfusion during hospitalization., Competing Interests: The authors have no funding and conflicts of interest to disclose., (Copyright © 2023 the Author(s).
