Abstract

Background: Although nurses are the primary clinicians in telemedicine intensive care units (tele-ICUs), their experiences remain underresearched. Objective: To describe and interpret the lived experiences of tele-ICU nurses. Methods: A qualitative, hermeneutical, phenomenological approach based on van Manen's methodology was used to collect and interpret interview data. In-depth interviews were conducted with 11 tele-ICU nurses affiliated with a health system in the northeastern United States. The interviews were intended to elicit direct reports of specific incidents to capture the phenomenological experience. Field observations of the practice setting were conducted to enhance data richness. Results: The participants were primarily female, aged 34 to 67 years, with 11 to 45 years of nursing experience. The following 4 major themes and 12 subthemes were identified: (1) watching intensively and panoptically, with subthemes (a) affirming unremitting diligence, (b) uncovering virtual knowing, and (c) easing perceptions of intrusion; (2) transcending complex boundaries, with subthemes (a) building trustful collaboration, (b) discerning vigilant interventions, and (c) exercising skillful investigation; (3) transforming nursing practice, with subthemes (a) mastering tact, (b) delineating the critical wholeness, and (c) augmenting safety and quality of care; and (4) developing an e-identity, with subthemes (a) tempering feelings of working in shadows, (b) evolving to the enhanced specialist role, and (c) achieving professional gratification. Conclusions: Tele-ICU nurses play a transformative role in nursing practice. These findings have implications for nursing practice, education, health policy, enhancement of the current American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) Tele-ICU Nursing Practice Model, and future research on ICU telemedicine.

Abstract

Introduction: Damage Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMPs) can initiate and amplify immune responses and can play an important role in the sustenance and progression of periodontal diseases. S100A8, S100A9 and their heterodimer, S100A8/9, are DAMPs or alarmins currently being evaluated for their potential as biomarkers in periodontal diseases. Aim: To quantify and compare salivary levels of S100A8, S100A9 and S100A8/9 in periodontal health, gingivitis or stage 1 periodontitis and stages 3 or 4 periodontitis. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional analytical study was carried out in the Department of Periodontics, Saveetha Dental College and Hospital, Chennai, India, from December 2022 to February 2023. Periodontal examination and saliva sample collection were done for sixty-eight consecutively enrolled subjects who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Study subjects were categorised as group 1, which comprised participants with clinical periodontal health (n=20), group 2, subjects with gingivitis or stage 1 periodontitis (n=20), and group 3, which included patients with stages 3 or 4 periodontitis (n=28). Detailed clinical examination and periodontal charting were done in all study subjects. Saliva samples were processed and stored at -80°C, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was done to quantify S100A8, S100A9 and S100A8/9. Data were analysed using International Business Machines (IBM) Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 25.0. Salivary levels of S100A8, S100A9 and S100A8/9 were expressed as mean and standard deviation values. Mean values of the three salivary proteins were compared using the non parametric Kruskal-Wallis test. Bonferroni adjusted pairwise comparisons were also done. The p-values less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: The mean age of study participants was 38.97±7.62 years. Salivary levels of S100A8 were 41.34±14.34, 141.95± 185.25 and 901.37±65.60 pg/mL in groups 1, 2 and 3, respectively. A statistically significant difference was present among the three groups for mean salivary levels of S100A8 (p-value<0.001). Pairwise comparisons showed that salivary S100A8 values in group 3 were significantly higher than the values observed in clinical health (group 1) (p-value<0.001) and those seen in the gingivitis or stage 1 periodontitis group (group 2) (p-value<0.001). Mean salivary levels of S100A9 and S100A8/9 did not show any statistically significant differences between the groups. Conclusion: There is an altered expression of S100A8, S100A9 and S100A8/9 in periodontal diseases compared to clinical health. Salivary levels of S100A8 are markedly different in cases of advanced periodontal destruction than in periodontal health and early stages of periodontal disease. Salivary S100A8 merits potential as a biomarker for periodontal diseases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: Medical cannabis use is an emerging topic of interest in orthopedics. Although there is a large amount of literature on medical cannabis use for managing various types of pain, few studies have focused on orthopedic conditions. There is little high-quality evidence in core orthopedic areas. The objective of this study was to summarize the literature on the efficacy of cannabis use for pain related to orthopedic conditions. Methods: We conducted a systematic review of the literature on the use of cannabinoids for pain management in core orthopedic conditions. Two independent reviewers extracted information on reporting quality, risk of bias, drugs, population, control, duration of study, pain outcomes and the authors' conclusions regarding efficacy for pain outcomes. Results: We identified 33 orthopedic studies, including 21 primary studies and 12 reviews. Study quality was generally low to moderate. Six of the included studies had a control group and 15 were noncontrolled studies. Methodologies, drugs and protocols of administration varied greatly across studies. Study conclusions were generally positive in noncontrolled studies and mixed in controlled studies. Studies using higher doses tended to conclude that cannabis use was effective, but the potential for harmful effects may also be increased with higher doses. Conclusion: Variability in the methodologies used in cannabis research makes it challenging to draw conclusions about dosing, routes and frequency of administration. Most of the existing evidence suggests that medical cannabis use is effective, but this efficacy has been demonstrated only when either there is no comparator or cannabis is compared with placebo. Studies using an active comparator have not demonstrated efficacy. Future research should focus on improving study reporting and methodologic quality so that protocols that optimize pain control while minimizing harmful effects can be determined. Contexte: La consommation de cannabis a des fins medicales est un sujet d'interet emergent en orthopedie. Malgre l'existence d'un important corpus de litterature medicale sur l'utilisation du cannabis pour traiter divers types de douleurs, peu d'etudes ont porte sur les problemes orthopediques. On dispose de peu de donnees probantes de grande qualite relatives aux principaux domaines de l'orthopedie. L'objectif de cette etude etait de resumer la litterature sur l'efficacite du cannabis a soulager les douleurs orthopediques. Methodes: Nous avons realise une revue systematique de la litterature sur l'utilisation des cannabinoides pour la prise en charge de la douleur associee aux principaux problemes orthopediques. Deux examinateurs independants ont extrait l'information sur la qualite des rapports, le risque de biais, les medicaments, les populations et groupes temoins, la duree des etudes, les scores de douleur et les conclusions des auteurs quant a l'efficacite au plan des scores de douleur. Resultats: Nous avons recense 33 etudes orthopediques, dont 21 etudes primaires et 12 revues. La qualite des etudes etait generalement de faible a moyenne. Six des etudes incluses etaient controlees et 15 ne l'etaient pas. Les methodologies, les medicaments et les protocoles d'administration variaient grandement d'une etude a l'autre. Les conclusions etaient generalement positives dans les etudes non controlees, et mixtes dans les etudes controlees. Les etudes qui utilisaient des doses plus fortes avaient tendance a conclure que le cannabis etait efficace, mais le risque d'effets negatifs pouvait egalement etre proportionnel a la dose. Conclusion: En raison de la variabilite des methodologies utilisees dans la recherche sur le cannabis, il est difficile de tirer des conclusions sur la posologie, les voies et la frequence d'administration. La plupart des preuves disponibles donnent a penser que le cannabis medical est efficace, mais cette efficacite n'a ete demontree que s'il n'y avait pas de comparateur ou si le cannabis etait compare a un placebo. Les etudes ayant utilise un comparateur actif n'ont pas fait etat d'efficacite. La recherche future devrait veiller a ameliorer les rapports et la qualite methodologique des etudes afin de determiner quels protocoles ameliorent la maitrise de la douleur tout en reduisant les effets negatifs., Medical cannabis is an emerging topic of interest in the field of orthopedics. Given the recent focus on the dangers of opioids (1,2) and the trend toward legalizing medical and [...]

Abstract

Eurycoma longifolia Jack (Simaroubaceae) root extract is known to exhibit antiinflammatory, antiviral and immunomodulatory activities. Therefore, E. longifolia, through a multimodal approach could potentially be used in COVID-19 management. However, to date there has been no investigation into the antiviral activity of E. longifolia root extract against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). The objective of the study is to investigate the antiviral activity of Physta® (a standardised water extract of E. longifolia) against SARS-CoV-2. A mitochondrial metabolic activity assay using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) was used to determine the cytotoxicity of the Physta® extract in Vero cells, with concentrations ranging from 1.95 µg/mL to 1,000 µg/mL. Physta® was tested for antiviral activity at six different concentrations, ranging from 3.12 µg/mL to 50 µg/mL. The half maximal cytotoxic concentration (CC50) value of Physta® against Vero cells was estimated at 1,117 µg/mL and the maximum non-toxic dose (MNTD) value was estimated at 60 µg/mL. Physta® inhibited SARS-CoV-2 replication in a dose-dependent manner, and the half maximal inhibition concentration (IC50) was estimated to be 36.3 µg/mL. This study has demonstrated the antiviral activity of Physta® against SARS-CoV-2. Future evaluations in animal and clinical settings should be conducted to determine whether Physta® can be used alone or in combination with other antiviral agents to alleviate COVID-19.

Abstract

Objective: To assess the effectiveness of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) with decalcified freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) compared to DFDBA alone in mandibular grade-II furcation defects. Material and Methods: A quasi-experimental study was conducted on nine patients with chronic periodontitis, each having two almost identical mandibular grade II furcation defects. Test sites (left mandibular first molars) were treated with open flap debridement (OFD), DFDBA, and PRF, whereas control sites (right mandibular first molars) received OFD and DFDBA alone. Clinical parameters (plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), vertical clinical attachment level (VCAL) and horizontal clinical attachment level (HCAL) into the furcation defect) and radiographic measurements (mean alveolar bone defect) were done at baseline and after six months postoperatively. Results: The gain in relative horizontal clinical attachment level (RHCAL) in the test sites was 2.94±0.52 mm compared to 1.33±0.35 mm in control sites (p=0.01). Improvement in mean alveolar bone defect (MABD) (was 1.21±0.5 mm2 at test sites compared to 1.15±0.7 mm2 at control sites) probing pocket depth (PPD), recession, relative vertical attachment level (RVCAL), and percentage of bone fill was found in the test sites compared to control, which statistically insignificant. Conclusion: The test sites had better outcomes than control sites, which was significant for the parameter RHCAL. Therefore, combining the biological benefits of autologous PRF with DFDBA is an efficient and economical treatment modality for the management of mandibular grade II furcation defects.
