The aim of this study was to verify the structure and psychometric properties of the Polish adaptation of the HEXACO-PI-R observer report form based on a heterogeneous target sample (liked, neutral and disliked peers). The vast majority of research has focused on the validity and reliability of the self-report form. The psychometric properties of the observer report version have been verified in only two languages. Previous Polish lexical studies based on a heterogeneous target sample have shown that the structure differs from a typical six-factor structure from self-rating studies. Since this phenomenon was not observed in English, we decided to verify the psychometric properties of the observer report form in Polish. Additionally, the NEO-FFI and Polish Personality Markers for observer report were used. All HEXACO-PI-R scales achieved satisfactory internal consistency and showed high stability. The results indicated that the structure of the Polish adaptation of the HEXACO-PI-R observer report form could be considered as similar to the theoretical construct, except when the target of the description is neutral for the respondent. This suggests the necessity to verify the structure of the HEXACO-PI-R observer report form based on liked and disliked peers in other languages as well.

Real-Time Subcutaneous Arterial Navigation for Thinning of an Anterolateral Thigh Flap Using Photoacoustic Imaging and Projection Mapping: A Case Report.
Microsurgery

Thinning of anterolateral thigh flap is challenging. Anatomical studies have shown variations in arterial branching patterns in the subcutaneous layer, which were suspected to be the reason for the high frequency of thinning failures. We attempted to visualize subcutaneous arterial courses preoperatively and perform thinning of perforator flaps using this information appropriately.

Rationale: Clinical literature indicates there may be a therapeutic use of cannabidiol (CBD) for stress-related disorders. Preclinical literature remains conflicted regarding the underlying neurobehavioral mechanisms, reporting mixed effects of CBD (increased, decreased, or no effect) on anxiety- and fear-related behaviors. Preclinical data demonstrated that CBD modulates hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis gene expression; it is unknown whether CBD changes HPA axis responsivity and how this relates to altered behavior.

Pathogenic Yeast Research Group, Department of Microbiology and Biochemistry, University of the Free State, Bloemfontein, South Africa.
Introduction: There is a rise in antifungal resistance as well as the emergence of multidrug resistant fungal pathogens worldwide, including in Africa.
Method: This systematic review summarized the published data on the mechanisms and epidemiology of antifungal resistance in species in Africa between 2000 and early 2024.
Result: Seventeen reports from seven African countries were analyzed but due to the paucity of data, the prevalence of antifungal resistant isolates in Africa could not be estimated.
BIS Guided Titration of Sevoflurane in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Elective Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Paediatr Anaesth
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, Duke University School of Medicine, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina, USA.
Background: In pediatric patients, the use of processed EEG monitoring may reduce the amount of anesthesia administered while maintaining adequate depth of anesthesia.
Aims: The primary aim of this study was to evaluate whether use of a BIS monitor to guide sevoflurane administration might reduce the average end tidal sevoflurane concentration used in children 4-18 years of age.
Methods: Participants in three age groups (4-8, 9-12, and 13-18 years) were randomized to either the BIS guided group or the control group.
Novel Use of Drug-eluting Stent in Otologic Surgery to Prevent Restenosis.
Ann Otol Rhinol Laryngol
January 2025
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center, Cleveland, OH, USA.
Objectives: The primary objective of this case series is to assess the effectiveness of the off-label use of the PROPEL drug-eluting stent, traditionally FDA-approved for sinus surgery, in preventing restenosis following canalplasty in patients with chronic otologic conditions or congenital anomalies. The stent provides both mechanical support to maintain canal patency and localized steroid delivery to reduce inflammation and scarring.
Methods: Four patients with various otologic conditions underwent canalplasty, followed by the placement of drug-eluting stents into the external auditory canal.
