Abstract	Introduction: JUUL is a high-nicotine pod-based vaping device that is popular among adolescents and young adults. On 23 June 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) denied authorization to market JUUL, and ordered JUUL Labs to remove products from the US market. The next day, a US federal appeals court temporarily suspended the ban. The mixed public discourse surrounding the FDA ban warrants further investigation. Methods: This study examined Twitter data to describe public reaction to these announcements. Posts containing terms 'JUUL' and/or '#JUUL' (N=97548 unique tweets) were collected from 23 June to 3 July 2022, from Twitter's Streaming Application Programming Interface (API). After removing retweets, we used an inductive approach to become familiar with the data, generated a codebook, and conducted a content analysis on a random sample of n=4000 tweets. Results: A total of 2755 (68.9%) tweets discussed JUUL in the context of the FDA ban. News (n=1425/2755; 51.7%) about the JUUL ban, government distrust (n=588; 21.3%), and individual rights (n=253; 9.2%) were the most prevalent themes. Less commonly discussed themes included inconsistencies between policies (n=174; 6.3%), mentions of switching to other products (n=162; 5.9%), smoking cessation (n=99; 3.6%), and craving for JUUL (n=94; 3.4%). Sentiment analysis of JUUL ban-related posts (n=2755) demonstrated that 1989 (72.2%) tweets were categorized as neutral, while anti-ban posts (n=566; 20.5%) were more prevalent than pro-ban posts (n=200; 7.3%). Conclusions: Besides straightforward announcements of the JUUL ban and its suspension, Twitter posts discussed government distrust, individual rights, and policy inconsistencies. While most posts conveyed neutral sentiments, anti-ban posts were almost three times more prevalent than pro-ban posts. Our findings suggest that text-based social media platforms like Twitter may be an effective instrument to understand opinions, attitudes, and beliefs regarding the FDA's JUUL ban.

Abstract	Purpose: To evaluate the outcomes of the tests used for dry eye diagnosis in patients with hepatitis C virus, and to verify if there is any relationship between the duration of illness and intensity of ocular surface changes. Methods: 25 patients with hepatitis C virus without treatment, and 29 patients with negative serologic tests for hepatitis C virus were selected. Biomicroscopy, tear film crystallization test, tear film break-up time, evaluation of the corneal staining with 1% fluorescein sodium, Schirmer I test, ocular surface staining with 1% rose bengal and esthesiometry were performed in both groups. Results: In the Schirmer I test, the group of patients with hepatitis C displayed lower values in both eyes (OR p=0.0162; OS p=0.0265). For the tear film break-up time, there was a lower score in the group with hepatitis C, but it was statistically significant only in the left eye (p=0.0007). Regarding the ocular surface damage, the rose bengal staining test showed a higher average in the hepatitis group in both eyes (right p=0.0008; left p=0.0034). There was a difference in the average esthesiometry between the groups, being the average lower in infected patients (OR p=0.0006; OS p=0.0015). There was no linear association between time of hepatitis C infection and intensity observed in dry eye tests. Conclusions: Hepatitis C virus infection causes dry eye. Further researches are necessary to establish the physiopathology and the relationship with Sjögren syndrome.

Abstract	The reaction of bis(trifluoromethyl)arsane 2 with secondary amines R₂NH in a molar ratio of 1:3 at -60 °C allows the preparation of trifluoromethyl arsaalkenes of the type F₃CAs=C(F)NR₂ in moderate yields (15-35%) [NR₂ = NMe₂ (3a), NMeEt (3b), NEt₂ (3c)]. The main product of the reaction of 2 with Me₂NH is the 1,1-diamino compound F₃CAs=C(NMe₂)₂ (4a). With ethyl(isopropyl)- or di(isopropyl)amine the corresponding derivatives F₃CAs=C(F)NEt(iPr) (3d) and F₃CAs=C(F)N(iPr)₂ (3e), respectively, are formed only in traces (3d), or not at all (3 e). However, 3d and 3e can be prepared by reacting perfluoro-2-arsapropene with the corresponding secondary amines. The new compounds 3 a to 3 e can be stored at 20 °C in chloroform solution for hours without decomposition and show Z configuration without exception. The molecular structure of 1-(diethylamino)-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-2-arsapropene 3c, determined by an X-ray diffraction study on single crystals, indicates a strong electronic interaction of the lone pair on nitrogen with the AsC double bond. This results in a trigonal planar arrangement at the nitrogen atom, a strongly shortened sp²-CN-bond (1.312 Å), an elongated AsC distance (1.867 Å), and an almost planar skeleton of the molecule.

Abstract	Objetivos: Avaliar os resultados dos testes utilizados para o diagnóstico de olho seco em portadores do vírus da hepatite C, e verificar se há relação entre a duração conhecida da doença e a intensidade das alterações da superfície ocular. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados 25 pacientes portadores do vírus da hepatite C não tratados e 29 indivíduos com testes sorológicos negativos para hepatite C. Nos dois grupos, foi realizada a mesma sequência de exames: biomicroscopia, teste de cristalização da lágrima, tempo de ruptura do filme lacrimal, avaliação da córnea com fluoresceína, teste de Schirmer I, avaliação da córnea e conjuntiva com corante rosa bengala e estesiometria da córnea. Os pacientes também foram questionados com relação ao tempo conhecido de infecção pelo vírus da hepatite C. RESULTADOS: O grupo com hepatite C apresentou valor menor que o encontrado nos indivíduos sem hepatite C, no teste de Schirmer I tanto para o olho direito (p=0,0162) como esquerdo (p=0,0265). Para o tempo de ruptura do filme lacrimal verificou-se média inferior no grupo com hepatite C nos dois olhos; porém, a diferença apresen tou significância estatística apenas no olho esquerdo (p=0,0007), não sendo detectada diferença no olho direito (p=0,0793). Com relação ao dano presente na superfície ocular, verificado pela pontuação no teste de coloração com rosa bengala, observou-se média superior no grupo com hepatite, tanto no olho direito (p=0,0008) como esquerdo (p=0,0034). Os valores obtidos na medida da sensibilidade corneal dos pacientes infectados evidenciaram que a sensibilidade da córnea encontra-se alterada em comparação com a do grupo controle. O teste de cristalização do filme lacrimal não demonstrou diferenças entre ambos os grupos. Não houve correlação entre tempo de infecção pelo vírus e intensidade das alterações. CONCLUSÕES: Os resultados indicam que a hepatite C é causa de olho seco. Os mecanismos fisiopatológicos não são conhecidos, mas isso deve servir de alerta para cuidados terapêuticos oculares e futuras pesquisas para elucidar a síndrome sicca na hepatite C e suas relações com síndrome de Sjögren.

Abstract	Background: E-learning is playing an increasing role in medical education, supporting a problem-based and practical oriented education without putting patients at risk and compensating for the decrease in instructor-centered teaching. Not much research has been done concerning learning effects and reaction on behalf of the students. Methods: We created computer-based cases for four important diagnoses in urology using the authoring system CASUS®. Fourth-year medical school students were randomized into two groups: (1) the CASUS® group, using the online cases for preparation, and (2) the book group, using a textbook. A multiple-choice test referring to the prepared topic had to be completed at the beginning of each lecture and the results were analyzed. Evaluation of the students concerning the acceptance of the program was done at the end of the semester. Results: Members of the CASUS® group scored significantly higher with an average of 20% better test results than students using textbooks for preparation. Evaluation regarding the program showed a highly positive rating. Limitations include the small study population and the possibly biased test performance of the students. Conclusion: Computerized patient cases facilitate practice-oriented teaching and result in an interesting and engaging learning model with improved learning outcomes.

Abstract	Objective: Vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol), a free-radical scavenger, has been reported to improve symptoms of tardive dyskinesia. The authors attempted to replicate this finding under more controlled conditions in a larger study group. Method: Fifteen inpatients and six outpatients with tardive dyskinesia received up to 1600 IU/day of vitamin E for 6 weeks in a double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study. Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) examinations of these patients were videotaped and rated independently by two trained raters. Levels of neuroleptic medication and vitamin E were measured during both treatment periods. Eighteen patients who demonstrated high blood levels of vitamin E were included in the data analysis. Results: Vitamin E levels were significantly higher while the patients were receiving vitamin E than while they were receiving placebo. For all 18 patients, there were no significant differences between AIMS scores after receiving vitamin E and AIMS scores after receiving placebo. In agreement with previous studies, however, the nine patients who had had tardive dyskinesia for 5 years or less had significantly lower AIMS scores after receiving vitamin E than after receiving placebo. There were no changes in neuroleptic levels during vitamin E treatment. Conclusions: Vitamin E had a minor beneficial effect on tardive dyskinesia ratings in a selected group of patients who had had tardive dyskinesia for 5 years or less. This effect was not due to an increase in blood levels of neuroleptic medications.
