In the summer of 1928 and 1929, we had to work on an expedition to study the endemic goiter in the Mariob region. It is impossible to cover in a journal article the enormous amount of material that these expeditions brought (mainly in 1929), its processing is still ongoing and the publication of data in special works of the expedition is a matter of the future; but already at the present time it is possible to share some preliminary results that are of interest to a wide medical community.

Abstract Introduction: In the new millennium, the medical community still deals with the treatment of idiopathic scoliosis as a three-dimensional (3D) curvature known in India before Hippocrates. However, we doctors that deal with deformities of the spine, stick to Reichalt's rule for treatment according to the size of the curvature and its progression. The aim of our study is to explain our own opinion for progression of bad posture in school children according to physical inactivity and use of video terminals (VT). Materials and methods: We have made some researches about standards of school screening for bad posture and its impact on morphological and functional changes in them. Results: Most of school children spend more than 2 hours in front of video terminals, they have increased body weight, and postural changes in sagittal plane. Discussion: Some postural bad positions in age of intensive growth can became structural. In the era of fast technology development the future generation shall have functional changes on body like result of long standing in bad position. Conclusion: The future studies for bad posture in school children should be aimed to find how much long sitting in front of VT can affect their health in the adult age.

Individual Needs

Precision medicine has captured the imagination of the medical community with visions of therapies precisely targeted to the specific individual’s genetic, biological, social, and environmental profile. However, in practice it has become synonymous with genomic medicine. As such its successes have been limited, with poor predictive or clinical value for the majority of people. It adds little to lifestyle medicine, other than in establishing why a healthy lifestyle is effective in combatting chronic disease. The challenge of lifestyle medicine remains getting people to actually adopt, sustain, and naturalize a healthy lifestyle, and this will require an approach that treats the patient as a person with individual needs and providing them with suitable types of support. The future of lifestyle medicine is holistic and person-centered rather than technological.

Missed Diagnosis

Colonoscopy procedure has been the key screening method to detect colorectal cancer (CRC). As a fatal disease, CRC needs early detection. The COVID-19 pandemic caused screening tests (colonoscopy) to be halted and delayed. As a result, there could be dire consequences such as later-stage or missed diagnosis or greater mortality. This report will analyze scientific literature pertaining to interrupted CRC screenings due to COVID-19 while drawing historical parallels from the 1918 flu pandemic. We conducted literature searches in the PubMed database as well as in Google Scholar. One of the main lessons learned from the 1918 flu pandemic was to employ social distancing to stop the spread of the virus. So, the global response at the start and peak of the COVID-19 pandemic was decreased hospital visits for any non-emergency cases. That led to a halt and delays in cancer (including CRC) screenings. The Medical community predicted this lag will cause more CRC cases and deaths in the future. However, reorganizing and changing screening method strategies were helpful during the ongoing pandemic. In conclusion, COVID-19 greatly affected CRC screening, including how we view the future of CRC screening. We can learn from this prospect to better prepare for future pandemics or other public health crises.

The Impact

Abstract Background The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused unprecedented challenges within medical centers, revealing inequities embedded in the medical community and exposing fragile social support systems. While faculty and staff faced extraordinary demands in workplace duties, personal responsibilities also increased. The goal of this study was to understand the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on personal and professional activities of faculty and staff in order to illuminate current challenges and explore solutions. Methods Qualitative, semi-structured group interviews involved faculty and staff at four affiliate sites within the Department of Medicine at the University of Colorado, School of Medicine. Focus groups addressed the impact of COVID-19 on (1) Changes to roles and responsibilities at work and at home, (2) Resources utilized to manage these changes and, (3) Potential strategies for how the Department could assist faculty and staff. Thematic analysis was conducted using an inductive method at the semantic level to form themes and subthemes. Results Qualitative analysis of focus group transcripts revealed themes of: (1) Challenges and disparities experienced during the pandemic, (2) Disproportionate impact on women personally and professionally, (3) Institutional factors that contributed to wellness and burnout, and (4) Solutions and strategies to support faculty and staff. Within each of these themes were multiple subthemes including increased professional and personal demands, concern for personal safety, a sense of internal guilt, financial uncertainty, missed professional opportunities, and a negative impact on mentoring. Solutions were offered and included an emphasis on addressing preexisting inequities, the importance of community, and workplace flexibility. Conclusions The COVID-19 pandemic created burdens for already challenged faculty and staff in both their personal and professional lives. Swift action and advocacy by academic institutions is needed to support the lives and careers of our colleagues now and in the future.

It Training

We have different reasons for publishing research. I can imagine the resident begrudging that without it, training would have been for naught. Then there are those rare individuals with whom the prospect of interesting research gives an inordinate sense of excitement. Many a time we say, “I’ve seen a case just like that” or “we’ve been doing that for a very long time”. But if it is not written, who can say that it happened? Why research and publish? Knowledge for the love of knowing. Basic research often pursues questions that may have no clear application yet. But there is always promise it will make sense in the future. These little bits of information have, in many instances, come together into a bigger “aha” moment later on. Answer a question --- understand how, what, when, why. Every single day, we ask something that there is no clear answer to. Be it in the course of seeing patients in the clinic, doing surgery or in moments of quiet introspection. Each candid query has potential to be a developed into a valid and rational research question. Share knowledge. The Philippine clinical environment is unique. Patient profiles, conditions and treatments may vary from those reported elsewhere. That new case unseen or rarely reported in literature will be lost to memory without publication. Sharing it as published scientific literature ensures that the information will be preserved and may be of use to others in the future. Intellectual and academic impetus. Residents take heart. Consultants in academic institutions also have this requirement. “Publish or perish” is taken seriously in the academe. This push from teaching institutions hopefully results in amplified output to sustain both the professor’s needs and the medical community at large. There are certainly more reasons. Which one is yours? Why in the PJO-HNS? We absorb information from all over the world and incorporate it into the daily grind of medical practice. But conditions by which Philippine ORL-HNS thrives is rife with its own special set of questions, answers, creative solutions, insight and the occasional surprise revelation. We have as much to share to the ORL-HNS community as the world has shared with us. The PJO-HNS, under the stewardship of Dr. Jose Florencio Lapeña, has achieved much in terms of ensuring that the researches it publishes gains international recognition with enhanced online accessibility. Thus, what is published in PJO-HNS will be searchable online and is linked within a system that allows ease of searching, citation and linking. Once it is written, published and uploaded, the information shared will never be lost or relegated to mere anecdotes. There is much work to be done to further Philippine ORL-HNS research. As leaders of our specialty, the PSO-HNS enjoins all Fellows to foster that inquisitive spirit, search for answers and share this knowledge through the PJO-HNS. May this volume inspire you to contribute to this effort.
