ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the concordance for the curve pattern, side and levels of the superior apical vertebrae, apex and inferior apical vertebrae of curves in patients and their relatives with idiopathic scoliosis. METHODS: Concordance according to the Lenke classification for curve pattern, side and levels of the superior apical vertebrae, apex and inferior apical vertebrae were evaluated comparative and prospectively in 243 pairs of patients and respective relatives with idiopathic scoliosis. RESULTS: The family concordance for the curve pattern and side was 51.4% (125 pairs). Among these pairs, the concordance of the levels of the vertebrae was 91.2% (114 pairs). The concordance rate for the curve pattern and side between parents/children was 51.6% and between siblings was 50.0% (p-value= 0.411). The concordance rates of the levels of vertebrae were 86.8% and 95.1%, respectively (p-value = 0.219). CONCLUSION: Curve shape in idiopathic scoliosis is related to family and degree of kinship, since the data showed a high concordance for the curve pattern, side and levels of the apical vertebrae and apex between patients and relatives with this deformity. The concordance was higher in those with a closer degree of kinship. Level of Evidence II, Lesser Quality Prospective Study.

Background: Schizophrenia is one of the most serious psychiatric diseases that affects the patient’s family members in addition to the patient himself. This disease can lead to depression and anxiety in the family members of the patient and even affect their functioning. Objectives: The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of a short-term family psychoeducation course on the depression and anxiety family functioning in caregivers Methods: In this before-after clinical trial, 163 first-degree family members of patients with schizophrenia were invited to participate in a short-term FPE course. A total of 65 of this group attended the first training session. Prior to the first session, the beck depression inventory (BDI), the beck anxiety inventory (BAI), and the family assessment device (FAD) were completed for the participants based on a family functioning model. Six months after the end of the FPE course, the 36 subjects who had completed the initial questionnaires and fully attended the sessions were invited to complete the questionnaires again. A total of 31 subjects completed the questionnaires again at this stage. The data were analyzed by SPSS-20 software using Mann–Whitney and Wilcoxon rank tests. Results: The mean age of the participants in both stages of questionnaire completion was 48.64 ± 11.85 years. Among them, 16 (51.6%) were female, and 15 (48.4%) were male. Also, six (19.4%) subjects had an education above high school, and mothers were the most frequent participating family members with a frequency of 11 (35.5%). The anxiety and depression scores of these subjects were 10.8 ± 5.14 and 6.9 ± 2.45 at baseline, respectively. These scores decreased significantly after six months to 5.03 ± 2.48 and 4.40 ± 1.9, respectively. In addition, among family functioning, Role and Behavioral control was significantly improved (P-value < 0.05). Conclusions: The results of this study showed that depression and anxiety levels decreased in the family members of the examined patients six months after an FPE course. This effect can be further investigated through studies conducted with control groups. These findings suggest that the integration and institutionalization of FPE programs in the healthcare system are essential for improving the status of patient caregivers with severe psychiatric illnesses and their families.

Purpose Distinct normal physiological patterns of fat conversion in vertebrae were described both for children and adults. Our aim was to evaluate the T1-weighted bone marrow pattern of the vertebral bodies in various sites along the scoliotic spine of children with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Methods We retrospectively evaluated spine MRI studies of children with AIS. Scoliosis radiographs were assessed for type of curvature according to the Lenke classification. A paediatric neuroradiologist assessed the T1-weighted signal of vertebral bodies in comparison with the adjacent disc and distinct patterns of fatty conversion within the apical and stable vertebral bodies. Statistical assessment was performed. Results MRI study of the spines of 75 children with AIS were assessed, 59 (79%) of whom were female, with an age range of nine to 19 years. The relative overall T1-weighted signal intensity of the vertebral body bone marrow relative to the intervertebral disc was hyperintense in 76% and isointense in 24%. Fatty conversion grade of the stable vertebra was higher than the apex vertebra (p = 0.0001). A significant tendency to have more advanced fat conversion patterns in the apex vertebra up to age 13.5 years old compared with adolescents above that (p = 0.015) was seen. Conclusion This preliminary study suggests a different pattern of bone marrow conversion in AIS from the normal physiologic pattern described in the literature. Whether these changes are secondary to the biomechanics of the curved spine or may suggest that bone marrow maturation rate and content have a role in the pathogenesis of AIS remains to be further researched.

There are 5,197 positive confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Banjarbaru. It is known that the COVID-19 pandemic causes essential problems related to basic needs such as economic, social, shelter and nutrition, as well as the physical effects of the disease. Not only health workers but also families of health workers experience psychological pressure. In a preliminary study, it was found that the family feel worried and anxious about their families members who work in a hospital to take care of patients. This research aims to investigate the correlation between anxiety levels and insomnia in family members of health workers at Idaman Hospital, Banjarbaru, during the COVID-19 pandemic. This research uses a Cross-Sectional approach using social media with the google form platform taking 125 correspondence as a sample. The research instrument used the DASS-21 and Insomnia Severity Index. The data were analyzed using the SPSS program, with the Spearman rank correlation test working by testing the associative hypothesis of two ordinal scale variables (ranking). A total of 70.4% of family members of health workers at Idaman Hospital Banjarbaru have a very severe level of anxiety. In addition, 46.4% of the families of health workers at Idaman Hospital Banjarbaru experienced severe insomnia. The correlation for state anxiety-insomnia is 0.846 with a p-value = 0.000 (p < 0.05). This indicates that the two variables have a significant relationship with moderate correlation strength. The direction of the positive correlation indicates that these two variables move in the same direction, meaning that the higher the anxiety, the higher insomnia is experienced. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the population was limited. It is necessary to conduct further and comprehensive research on the psychological impact on family members of health workers. It is very limited to find research that examines the psychological condition of the family of health workers because, as we know, that not only affects the health workers themselves, but the family also experiences psychological impacts.

Abstract BackgroundAlthough Lenke classification analyses the sagittal plane as (+), N, and (-), it does not consider it in the choice of treatment, and it has limitations with overall thoracic kyphosis (TK). To investigate the importance of TK for treatment preference in patients with Lenke 5C adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) by comparing radiological outcomes of the patients who underwent selective fusion (SF) or nonselective fusion (NSF). MethodsThirty-two patients with Lenke type 5C AIS were included and then divided into two groups as per the fusion procedure used in the surgical treatment. SF group including 17 patients (15 females; mean age = 16 years, age range, 14–21) with normal TK and NSF group including 15 patients (11 females; mean age = 17 years, age range, 13–26) with thoracic hyper-kyphosis. Thorocolumbar/lumbar (TL/L) Cobb, thoracic (T) Cobb, TK and lumbar lordosis (LL) were measured on standing spine radiographs preoperatively and at the final follow-up. The correction rates (CR) of each radiographic parameter were calculated.ResultsNo significant differences were observed in the mean CR of all radiographic parameters, except TK and LL correction rates. The mean CR of TK was significantly higher in NSF group (-17% [range, -100–69]) than in SF group (67% [range, 9–100]) (p = 0.000). Likewise, the mean CR of LL was found significantly higher in NSF group (12.47% [range, -100–51]) than in SF group (-2.41% [range, -75–47]) (p = 0.036).ConclusionIn patients in whom Lenke's sagittal modifier is N, SF can be performed efficiently. NSF should be preferred in those with Lenke's sagittal modifiers (+) as TK can be better controlled with NSF.Level of Evidence: 3

ABSTRACT Objective: To create a new comprehensive, three-dimensional, applicable classification for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis and similar conditions. Methods: The Three-Dimensional Classification was created with three components: the first, the quantitative factor, divides into three types according to the number of curves; the second, the locator factor defines the most structured point of the curve; and the third, the sagittal factor, evaluates the overall sagittal plane. To test the new classification, we studied the images of 99 patients comparing the intra- and interobserver agreement and reproducibility index of the Three-Dimensional Classification with that of Lenke. Results: It can be stated that, overall, the agreement between the three evaluators in relation to the Three-Dimensional Classification and that of Lenke in this series was considered very good. Conclusions: The case study showed a significant difference in the percentages between the two Classifications. In the evaluation of thoracic kyphosis, the Three-Dimensional Classification defined 26.6% of the cases as hyperkyphosis and 61.6% as normal, whereas the Lenke Classification defined 6.06% as hyperkyphosis and 84.18% as normal. However, in the global comparative analysis of the methods, the Three-Dimensional and Lenke systems presented statistically the same levels of agreement, since the values of the confidence intervals overlap.
