Olfactory groove meningiomas are benign tumors, which arise in the midline of the anterior cranial fossa, over the cribriform plate and frontosphenoid suture. They represent approximately 10 percent of all intracranial meningiomas, more likely to occur in women in the fifth and sixth decades of life. They often involve the area from the grista galli to the posterior planum sphenoidale, and can be either simetric, bilateral or unilateral based on their midline origin. We report the case of a 45-year-old man who presented with an episode of loss of consciousness, progressive mental disturbances, impairment of visual acuity, anosmia and headache. Gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted MR images showed a well-defined, hyperintense mass, located in the anterior cranial fossa, measuring 45/50/61 mm, with homogenous enhancement and a broad dural attachment to the cribriform plate, from crista galli to the planum sphenoidale. Preoperative Angiography revealed tumor vascularization from anterior and posterior ethmoidal arteries, branches of ophthalmic artery and branches of external carotid artery. The olfactory groove meningioma was successfully resected using a bifrontal approach with frontal sinuses opened in order to avoid brain retraction. Cranialization with pericranium of frontal sinuses was performed at the end of surgical procedure. Improvement of visual acuity was noted, mental disturbances and seizures remitted, but cerebrospinal leakage occurred, resolved via recranialization of frontal sinuses and lumbar punctions. The last postoperative computer-tomography investigation showed total surgical removal with no recurrence or residual tumor. Total tumor removal must be performed with coagulation of its arachnoid attachments and resection of hyperostotic bone in order to avoid recurrence, but with least brain retraction.
This study aimed to explore and compare Polish and Romanian students’ opinions towards the integration of learning games in Higher Education subjects and to highlight the improved soft skills by participating in learning games. This article reports the results of a quantitative study that was designed to explore and compare the opinions of 103 students from 2 universities towards the integration of learning games in the Project Management subject. The students ranked 71 items found in the questionnaire in 7 scale questions. The items are presented in the form of skills that can be developed by participating in educational games and aspects that are important in Project Management. In the analysis of the data, the T test—two sample test—was used, and the nonparametric Wilcoxon rank-sum test, using the SAS Studio application to assess whether the average responses are different between the two groups (α = 0.05). There were significant differences in the case of some items related to the skills that can be developed by participating in two educational games (communication, empathy, awareness, problem-solving, work productivity, and time management), but also items that help students understand the importance of some aspects related to Project Management after participation in educational games (work productivity, team dimension, time management, and following request).
Après une collaboration étroite avec le Collège juridique franco-roumain pendant près de 20 ans dans lesquels j'ai animé les stages de formation de ses étudiants à la Cour de justice de l'Union européenne au Luxembourg, j'ai donné des conférences lors des différentes manifestations organisées par ce centre d'excellence soutenu par la Faculté de droit de Bucarest et le gouvernement français et des universités de France, j’ai eu la chance de rencontrer à Bucarest pendant le premier semestre de l‘année universitaire 2022-2023 ses étudiantes et étudiants en troisième année de licence. L'essentiel des cours que j'ai présentés dans le nombre limité d'heures mis à disposition sur le contentieux de l'Union européenne se trouve dans ces brèves pages que je propose, en leur souhaitant de continuer avec curiosité et ferveur à faire des recherches continues sur ce vaste terrain.(...)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
