Teaching personal and social responsibility after-school: a systematic review / Enseñando responsabilidad personal y social en un contexto extracurricular: una revisión sistemática / O Ensino da responsabilidade pessoal e social no contexto extracurricular: uma revisão sistemática

BACKGROUND: Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility (TPSR) has been studied and implemented through physical activity in different backgrounds for over three decades. However, there is no systematized review in the literature concerning the after-school context. AIM: Conducting a systematic review of literature on after-school interventions based on the TPSR model. METHODS: This study was driven by the following research questions: Which were the conclusions regarding the implementation of TPSR in after-school settings? Which research methodologies have been used to assess TPSR in after-school time settings? Which results related to TPSR were reported in after-school time settings? Cochrane protocol guidelines were followed. Papers were selected by two independent researchers, with Cohen's Kappa value of 81%. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Twenty-seven papers were selected, thirteen of which were reported with high scores. Most interventions were conducted in the USA on community-based after-school programs, lasting more than nine sessions, and led by school staff who prepared physical activities for youngsters from disadvantaged communities. Most of the reported studies resorted to qualitative methodologies. Some gaps were detected, such as lack of systematization of methods, lack of validity and reliability. Personal and social benefits were found. Other results were grouped into leadership, staff-youngsters relationship, values, transference, and impact on staff lives. We recommend future studies in the after-school context extend to extend to other countries, with more detailed descriptions of the specific used methods

CONTEXTO: Hace más de tres décadas, el Teaching Personal and Social Responsability(TPSR) ha sido estudiado e implementado, a través de la actividad física, en distintos contextos. No obstante, no ha ninguna revisión sistematizada en literatura en un contexto extracurricular. OBJETIVO: Llevar a una revisión sistemática de la literatura sobre intervenciones extracurriculares basadas en el modelo TPSR. MÉTODOS: Las preguntas de búsqueda que llevaron a este estudio fueron: ¿Cuáles las conclusiones relacionadas a la implementación del TPSR en contexto extracurricular? ¿Qué metodologías de investigación han sido utilizadas para examinar el TPSR en contexto extracurricular? ¿Qué resultados relacionados con el TPSR fueron presentados en contexto extracurricular? Han sido seguidas las orientaciones del protocolo de Cochrane. La selección de los artículos ha sido hecha por dos investigadores independientes, con valor de Kappa de Cohen de 81%. RESULTADOS Y DISCUSIÓN: Han sido seleccionados veintisiete artículos, trece de los cuales han sido relatados con elevada puntuación. La mayoría de las intervenciones han sido hechas en los EEUU, en programas extracurriculares para la comunidad, con una duración superior a nueve sesiones, encabezadas por staff de la escuela prepararon actividades físicas para jóvenes de comunidades desfavorecidas. Los estudios relatados apelaron, en su mayoría, a metodologías cualitativas. Algunos errores han sido detectados como la falta de sistematización de los métodos, la falta de validez y fiabilidad. Han sido encontrados beneficios personales y sociales. Otros resultados han sido agrupados en liderazgo, relaciones entre staff y jóvenes, valores, transferencia e impacto en la vida de las personas. Se recomienda que estudios futuros en el contexto extracurricular se extiendan a otros países, con descripciones más detalladas de los métodos utilizados y exactos

A maioria das intervenções foi realizada nos EUA, em programas extracurriculares para a comunidade, com uma duração superior a nove sessões, lideradas por staff da escola que preparou atividades físicas para jovens de comunidades desfavorecidas. Os estudos relatados recorreram, na sua maioria, a metodologias qualitativas. Algumas lacunas foram detetadas como a falta de sistematização dos métodos, a falta de validade e confiabilidade.

Tigecycline-induced acute pancreatitis in a cystic fibrosis patient: A case report and literature review.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this case report is to increase awareness of tigecycline-associated pancreatitis, specifically in patients who may be predisposed to develop pancreatitis. CASE SUMMARY: A 22-year-old male with cystic fibrosis developed acute bronchitis, with sputum cultures significant for Mycobacterium chelonae. He was started on tigecycline on two separate occasions, in each case developing pancreatitis as evidenced by symptomatology, elevated pancreatic enzymes and, in one case, by CT imaging. On both occasions, symptomatology improved and enzymes normalized after discontinuation of tigecycline. DISCUSSION: Current literature including two recent review pieces is discussed. The unique aspects of the case are highlighted, including the particular risk of drug-associated pancreatitis in those with cystic fibrosis. CONCLUSION: The results of this case, in the context of current literature, suggest that clinicians should be aware of the potential for pancreatitis when using tigecycline. Clinicians should be particularly mindful of this complication in patients with comorbidities that might increase the risk of pancreatitis above that of the general population.

Voiding cystourethrogram--are our protocols the same?

PURPOSE: Voiding cystourethrogram is the gold standard for evaluating and diagnosing vesicoureteral reflux. Reflux detection can potentially be affected by many parameters during voiding cystourethrogram. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 29-item survey was sent via e-mail through SurveyMonkey® to the chairperson of pediatric radiology at 65 national pediatric hospitals. This survey included questions on institutional protocols for performing voiding cystourethrogram. RESULTS: Responses were received from 41 institutions from across North America, including 17 of 19 Randomized Intervention for Children with Vesicoureteral Reflux study sites. Many aspects of the reports of voiding cystourethrogram protocols were similar with 90% or greater agreement in allowing parents in the room, contrast infusion by gravity, catheter or feeding tube use without balloons, no contrast dilution and voiding without a catheter in place. The height at which contrast medium was raised for infusion was 40, 60, 80, 100 and greater than 100 cm at 2.4%, 17.1%, 17.1%, 39.0% and 12.2% of sites, respectively, while the height was not measured or it varied at 12.2%. The infilling phase stopped when the bladder appeared full at 2.4% of sites, infusion stopped itself at 12.2%, patient voided at 61.0%, volume attained age expected capacity at 12.2%, the patient was uncomfortable at 4.9% and results varied at 7.3%. CONCLUSIONS: Data reveal that voiding cystourethrogram is performed differently across North America and no standard protocol exists for the procedure. These differences could significantly impact voiding cystourethrogram results among institutions and taint our ability to compare results in the literature.

Kissing nevus discovered at circumcision consult.

A divided nevus of the penis is a rare embryological occurrence. The appearance of a congenital melanocytic nevus can be difficult to distinguish from penile melanosis. This article presents the successful excision and histopathologic evaluation of one such nevus.
