The challenges of HR departments in hybrid work conditions

Purpose: The aim of this paper is to present the challenges faced by HR departments in the hybrid work system. In particular new tasks set for HR departments in the conditions of hybrid work organization and competencies necessary for HR professionals to effectively deal with new tasks and challenges caused by the hybrid work settings were analyzed. Design/methodology/approach: A systematic review of world literature was carried out using the following databases: Proquest, EBSCO, Emerald, JSTOR, Science Direct and BAZEKON. The results were supplemented with conclusions from two research conducted by the author on samples of over 100 companies operating in Poland. Findings: A list of tasks anticipated for HR departments as a result of the introduction of a hybrid work system was created. A set of competences necessary for the effective performance of tasks was also proposed. Research limitations/implications: The limitation of research is a very short research time span and large differences in the specificity of companies making it difficult to propose a universal model for each company. Originality/value: The paper presents list of tasks and set of competences necessary in new conditions created by the introduction of hybrid working systems. It can be valuable for researchers and practicians. Keywords: hybrid work, HR department, HR professionals. Category of the paper: research paper.

Pulmonary anaplastic large-cell lymphoma: A case-based systematic review of world literature.

We describe a case of ALK1 negative (-) pulmonary anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (pALCL) in an adult female with an unfavorable outcome following combination chemotherapy and present a systematic review of 39 such sporadic cases reported over the past 28 years (1990-2018). pALCL occurred in 26 males and 13 females (median age, 43 years [5-81]) and 13/39 (33.33%) were ≤18 years. The lesions were endobronchial in 21 (53.85%) and parenchymal in 18 (46.15%) cases. Twenty-six cases were ALK1-; 13 were ALK1+ (positive); and 27/34 cases had a T cell phenotype (where tested). ALK- cases were characterized by higher age (P = 0.012) at presentation, more B symptoms (P = 0.002), and more parenchymal than endobronchial lesions (P = 0.039). The median survival (N = 29/39) was 60 months; pediatric group had a better survival than adult/elderly group (log-rank, P = 0.026). pALCL is rare and may have a distinct biological behavior.

Genotype and phenotypic spectrum of vitamin D dependent rickets type 1A: our experience and systematic review.

Vitamin D dependent rickets type 1 (VDDR1) is a rare disease due to pathogenic variants in 1-α hydroxylase gene. We describe our experience with systematic review of world literature to describe phenotype and genotype. Seven patients from six unrelated families with genetically proven VDDR1 from our cohort and 165 probands from systematic review were analyzed retrospectively. The clinical features, biochemistry, genetics, management, and long-term outcome were retrieved. In our cohort, the median age at presentation and diagnosis was 11(4-18) and 40(30-240) months. The delayed diagnoses were due to misdiagnoses as renal tubular acidosis and hypophosphatemic rickets. Four had hypocalcemic seizures in infancy whereas all had rickets by 2 years. All patients had biochemical response to calcitriol, however two patients diagnosed post-puberty had persistent deformity. Genetic analysis revealed two novel (p.Met260Arg, p.Arg453Leu) and a recurring variant (p.Phe443Profs*24). Systematic review showed that seizures as most common presentation in infancy, whereas delayed motor milestones and deformities after infancy. Diagnosis was delayed in 27 patients. Patients with unsatisfactory response despite compliance were >12 years at treatment initiation. Inappropriately normal 1,25(OH)2D may be present, however suppressed ratio of 1,25(OH)2 D/25(OH)D may provide a clue to diagnosis. Various region specific and hot-spot recurrent variants are described. Patients with truncating variants had higher daily calcitriol requirement and greatly suppressed ratio of 1,25(OH)2D/25(OH)D. Delayed diagnosis may lead to permanent short stature and deformities. Truncating variants tend to have severe disease as compared to non-truncating variants. Diagnostic accuracy of 1,25(OH)2 D/25(OH)D ratio needs further validation.

Management of Insulin Autoimmune Hypoglycaemia: Single-centre experience from Western India with systematic review of world literature.

Awareness about Insulin Autoimmune Hypoglycaemia (IAH) and its management remains limited. We describe two cohorts: Cohort 1 (n=7) included patients with IAH from a tertiary care centre in India and Cohort 2 (n=294) included systematic review of published English literature from PubMed. They were compared with our insulinoma patients (n=41). Cohort 1 included seven female patients where two had drugs (carbimazole and thiocolchicoside) as triggering factors. Except for one patient requiring oral prednisolone, others had spontaneous remission. The unique features from our series are being first case series of IAH from India and reporting of second case of thiocolchicoside triggered IAH. Cohort 2 had 294 patients identified from 149 publications. Mean age was 54±19years. Thirty-five different triggers were identified from 160 cases. Antithyroid drugs were most common triggers in Japanese patients and most common HLA allele was DRB1*0406, while it was alpha-lipoic acid and HLA DRB1*0403 in non-Asians. Serum Insulin >100µIU/mL and insulin to C-peptide molar ratio (ICMR) >0.25 had specificity of 100% and 97.5%, respectively, for IAH as compared to insulinoma.56%patients had remission with complex carbohydrate diet and trigger removal while 43% required immunosuppressants. 70% achieved remission within 6months. Middle age remains most common age group. Sulfhydryl drugs are most common triggers. Serum Insulin >100µIU/mL and ICMR>0.25 in critical sample are good predictors for diagnosis of IAH, which needs to be confirmed by IAA. Conservative management with dietary modification and trigger removal usually suffices in majority. Rests need immunosuppressants.

JOB INSECURITY – CONCEPTUALIZATION OF THE NOTION AND METHODS OF MEASUREMENT

Increasing globalization and transformation of the modern labour market have changed the traditional employment model, introducing insecurity associated with taking up and maintaining work. Job insecurity, understood as a “perceived threat of job loss and concerns related to this threat” is an unavoidable and widespread phenomenon in today’s professional world. Job insecurity has been of great interest to researchers since the 1980s. Job insecurity is one of the emerging research directions in economic theory. The aim of the article is to try and provide an interdisciplinary conceptualization of job insecurity. The article presents different ways of understanding job insecurity and discusses the methods of its measurement. A systematic review of world literature was conducted to identify and assess the current state of knowledge in this area. The analysis of scholarly publications on job insecurity confirms the existence of a relatively small number of scientific and research studies in this field in Poland. Therefore, a cognitive gap is identified which invites a more indepth investigation of job uncertainty, in particular its integrated review and conceptual framework as well as designing the relevant measurement tool. The article is analytical and conceptual, and can be a contribution to the discussion on job insecurity and a starting point for empirical research in economic sciences.

Successful penile reimplantation and systematic review of world literature

IntroductionThere is paucity of case reports that describe successful non-microscopic penile reimplantation. We report a case of a self-inflicted penile amputation in an apparently normal patient with first psychotic break. ObservationTo report on a case of successful macrosurgical penile reimplantation, discuss the etiologies, surgical techniques and outcomes of world literature on penile reimplantation and an update of current trends in penile surgery. A 40 year-old male, father of 3 children and a proprietor of a nursery school with no prior pschiatric disorder was rushed to our trauma centre following a self-inflicted total penile amputation at its base with incomplete laceration of the scrotum due to command hallucination. He was immediately resuscitated and underwent a non-microscopic penile reimplantation and scrotal closure by an experienced urologist (JEM) by reattaching the dorsal vein, urethra, corporal, fascial and skin layers. A functional outcome with respect to voiding, penile erection and cosmesis was excellent. ConclusionSelf-inflicted penile amputation may manifest as first psychotic break in apparently normal subjects. Though microscopic neurovascular reconstruction is the gold standard, macrosurgical reimplantation of penis by an experienced surgeon in the absence of a microscope yields satisfactory results.

A systematic review of the emotional, behavioural and cognitive features exhibited by school-aged children experiencing neglect or emotional abuse.

Interventions to minimize the long-term consequences of neglect or emotional abuse rely on prompt identification of these children. This systematic review of world literature (1947-2012) identifies features that children aged 5-14 years experiencing neglect or emotional abuse, as opposed to physical or sexual abuse, may exhibit. Searching 18 databases, utilizing over 100 keywords, supplemented by hand searching, 13,210 articles were identified and 111 underwent full critical appraisal by two independent trained reviewers. The 30 included studies highlighted behavioural features (15 studies), externalizing features being the most prominent (8/9 studies) and internalizing features noted in 4/6 studies. Four studies identified attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) associated features: impulsivity, inattention or hyperactivity. Child difficulties in initiating or developing friendships were noted in seven studies. Of 13 studies addressing emotional well-being, three highlighted low self-esteem, with a perception of external control (1), or depression (6) including suicidality (1). A negative internal working model of the mother increased the likelihood of depression (1). In assessing cognition or academic performance, lower general intelligence (3/4) and reduced literacy and numeracy (2) were reported, but no observable effect on memory (3). School-aged children presenting with poor academic performance, ADHD symptomatology or abnormal behaviours warrant assessment of neglect or emotional abuse as a potential underlying cause.
