Nurse-led renal cancer follow-up is safe and associated with high patient satisfaction—an audit from the East of England

Background With more people diagnosed and dying from renal cancers in England than ever before, treatment and follow-up post-surgery is of paramount importance. We have instituted a nurse-led follow-up service for renal cancers as a way to improve efficiency and make better use of clinic time. This is our first attempt to audit our service. Objectives One of the main objectives of this project was to measure compliance of a nurse-led renal surveillance clinic against an established institutional follow-up protocol which was based on current European Association of Urology guidelines. We also aimed to assess patient satisfaction with nurse-led care. Patients and Methods A total of 89 patients with low/intermediate-risk kidney cancers who were on the nurse-led renal surveillance database following nephrectomy or partial nephrectomy were placed on a database. This was then audited for adherence to the clinic protocol. These same patients were subsequently sent patient satisfaction questionnaires. Results The audit revealed high levels of compliance against the renal clinic protocol as well as positive feedback from the patient satisfaction questionnaire. Ninety-five percent said they felt either at ease or very at ease speaking to the nurse specialist. No one was dissatisfied with their consultations with 86% being very satisfied and 14% fairly satisfied. This was reinforced further by 100% of patients feeling that they could discuss all aspects of their condition with the Uro-oncology Clinical Nurse Specialist (UOCNS). Ninety-seven percent felt that they had adequate time with the nurse. Conclusion Nurse-led follow-up, in our setting, was noted to be safe and effective and was associated with high levels of patient satisfaction. This study adds to the growing body of work on the efficacy of nurse-led care.

The Neighborhood Impact of Subprime Lending , Predatory Lending and Foreclosure

The neighborhood impact of subprime lending, predatory lending and foreclosure has been estimated at two to ten percent of home value. Further, as some neighborhoods see a concentration of foreclosures, the number of distressed properties in close proximity to a given property also has an impact on home value. Empirical evidence suggests that home values decline by one percent on average for each nearby distressed home. Extrapolated across the national housing stock, this translates into a 1 to 10% (or $5,000 average) spillover effect. We discuss current research in this area and identify gaps in the literature in the wake of the subprime mortgage crisis. Corresponding author, srauter@uab.edu, (205) 934‐8857.
Changes of Microbial Diversity in Rhizosphere Soils of New Quality Varieties of Winter Wheat Cultivation in Organic Farming

The aim of this paper was to evaluation functional diversity in rhizosphere soils of new quality varieties of winter wheat cultivation in organic farming. Field experiments were carried out in 2017 and 2018. Twelve commercial winter wheat varieties were selected for testing: Arktis, Bellisa, Estivus, Fidelius, Hondia, Jantarka, KWS Ozon, Linus, Markiza, Ostka Strzelecka, Pokusa, and Rokosz. Winter wheat cultivars were chosen for their high yielding potential and good tolerance to fungal diseases. In the plant production conducted in accordance with the principles of organic farming, the selection of the best quality varieties is a key element of agrotechnics. The samples of rhizosphere soils were collected each year in two seasons: spring and summer. The basic parameters of soil biological activities and microbial biodiversity indicators were determined. The high variability of biological activity and functional diversity of rhizosphere soils in the growing season between particular varieties of winter wheat was observed. The rhizosphere soils from varieties such as Bellisa, Arktis, Jantarka, Fidelius, Ostka Strzelecka, Pokusa, Rokosz and KWS Ozon were characterized by high biological activity and functional biodiversity. On the other hand, the soils collected from the varieties Estivus, Fidelius, Jantarkaand Hondia were characterized by medium and low biological activity and biodiversity indices. The highest yield was found in winter wheat varieties such as Bellisa, Fidelius and Jantarka. The results of these analyses allows for a more complete characterization of the yield potential of the tested varieties and their suitability for cultivation in the conditions of organic farming, taking into account the biological activity of soils.
A Lingua Franca view on Swedish Pronunciation – A review and Pedagogical Implications

Learners of Swedish as a second language need a meaningful pronunciation training. To achieve this, teachers need guidelines how to plan and perform meaningful teaching. This paper argues for a priority ranking among phonological and phonetic features for pronunciation teaching. The arguments are in-spired by the concept of Lingua Franca Phonetic Core for English and is based on studies and experience concerning intelligibility. It highlights Swedish prosodic and segmental features on phonological, acoustical and strategic levels and ventures to outline an agenda for Swedish pronunciation teaching, incor-porating the fact that Swedish is used in all constellations of L1 and L2 speakers from different language backgrounds, plus the fact that adult L2 learners are unlikely to achieve a nativelike L2 pronunciation. The suggested Swedish phonetic core gives priority to temporal prosodic features over tonal, and consonants over vowels.
PRODUCTION PERFORMANCES OF RABBIT DOES IN A PART-TIME GROUP HOUSING SYSTEM

Production performances were studied using an innovative park system (20 000 cm2) allowing part-time group housing of 4 does during 3 weeks of the 42-d reproduction cycle. Internal walls were placed in the parks from 3 days before till 18 days after kindling to create 4 individual units. This system was compared with the classical individual cage system (3 800 cm2). During 4 reproduction cycles, in total 3 x 24 pregnant Hycole females were housed in enriched cages (control group) or in 6 parks with a wire floor or in 6 parks with a plastic floor. Two identical rooms and equipments were available, allowing to transfer the does at weaning to the 2nd room (all in all out management). A standard conventional management with A.I. was used. Fertility of does amounted 90.3% in cages and 88.9% and 83.3% in pen systems (not significantly different). Mortality before grouping of the does (P<0.05) and after grouping was somewhat higher in pen systems which could be at least partly related to construction errors in the parks. The floor in the pen system did not have an effect on the production traits. Performances in cages were higher (+3.3% weaned, +8% higher weaning weight). However, overall performance level in the pen systems was high (9.9 young were weaned per litter vs 10.2 in cages) which demonstrates the possibility of such a part-time group housing for does with young.
Role of Ebstein-Barr virus in children with tonsillar hypertrophy

Sum mary Aim: The aim of this clinical prospective study is to evaluate the relationship between Epstein-Barr virüs (EBV) and asymmetric and symmetric tonsillar hypertrophy in children between 3-14 years old. Material and Method: Tonsil size of forty two children were evaluated a orophayrngeal inspection preoperatively.Tonsils were grouped according to Brodsky L scala classification (Grade 1-4). Childrens are separated into two groups including the ones that have grade 1-2 and grade 3-4 tonsil size, +1 difference between two tonsils was accepted as tonsillar asymmetry. Viral capsid antigen IgG (VCA IgG), viral capsid antigen IgM (VCA IgM), early antigen and EBV nuclear antigen (EBNA) levels were measured in serum preoperatively. EBV latent membrane protein-1 and EBNA-2 levels were determined with immunohistochemical studies after paraffin sectioning. Chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests were used to compare groups. The study was approved by the ethics commite (KA0992). Results: The 20 of the cases were boy and 22 were girl. The mean age was 7.12±2.07. There were no significant difference between groups, among age and gender distribution.Thirty-two children (76.2%) were sero-positive for VCA IgG. Among 62.5% of them, EBNA IgG was also positive. VCA IgG was significanlty higher in children with tonsillar hypertrophy grade 3-4 and EBNA was significantly higher in children with tonsillar hypertrophy grade 1-2. All tonsil spacements are evaluated as chronic tonsillit that shows lymphoid hyperplasia. 35.7% of EBV is found by immunohistochemical staining.This ratio is determined as 28.6% for latent membran protein-1 and 19% for EBNA.The relationship between EBV and degree of tonsillar hypertrophy was found to be statistically insignificant (p>0.05). Asymetric tonsillar hypertrophy were seen among 16.7% of the children.The relationship between EBV and asymetric tonsillar hypertrophy was also found to be statistically insignificant (p>0.05). Conclusions: We found statistical correlation between the grade of tonsillar hypertrophy and viral load in serum. This study points out the reservoir of EBV in tonsil tissue.

Chinese Herbs (Lonicera japonica and Ganoderma lucidum) Enhance Non-Specific Immune Response of Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, and Protection Against Aeromonas hydrophila

Three diet variations, in addition to control (no herbs), were used to determine the effect of Chinese herbs (Lonicera japonica and Ganoderma lucidum) on non-specific immune response of tilapia. These contained 1.0% of Lonicera, 1.0% of Ganoderma and a mixture of Ganoderma (0.5%) and Lonicera (0.5%). The diets were fed for 3 weeks. The respiratory burst activity of blood leukocytes, phagocytosis, plasma lysozyme, total protein and total immunoglobulin were monitored. Following three weeks after feeding, fish were infected with Aeromonas hydrophila and mortalities recorded. The results of this study showed that feeding tilapia with Ganoderma and Lonicera alone or in combination enhanced phagocytosis by blood phagocytic cells during the whole experimental period and stimulated lysozyme activity after two weeks. Respiratory burst activity of phagocytic blood cells, total protein and total immunoglobulin in plasma were not enhanced. Both herbs when used alone or in combination increased the survival of fish after challenge with A. hydrophila. The highest mortality was observed in control fish – 58% and fish fed with Lonicera extract – 43%, while 30% of fish died in the group fed with Ganoderma and the lowest mortality (21%) was observed when fish were fed with a combination of two herbs. Thus, it can be concluded that the herb extracts added to diets acted as immunostimulants and appeared to improve the immune status and disease resistance of fish.

Incentives in Teams and the Role of Information in Organizations 1

The design of optimal incentives in organizations is closely tied to a variety of structural features of the workplace. A crucial one among those is the information structure among peers. A noticeable recent trend in the evolution of the workplace is the move away from private offices or cubicles to open-space environments or “war rooms. ” This policy which is implemented by different types of organizations is often referred to as “co-location. ” Coupled with other measures to increase interaction among peers, co-location enhances workers’ monitoring opportunities and makes the information about effort more transparent among peers. The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of the internal information among peers on the design of optimal incentives in organizations. A variety of aspects influence peer information in organizations. One is indeed the workplace architecture, i.e., the extent to which workers operate in the line-of-sight of each other. But the structure of authority and the organizational culture may be equally relevant. We will use the term co-location in this paper to refer to any measure that makes peer information richer. A central question in our analysis would be whether, and under which conditions, more information among peers makes it easier for the principal to provide incentives. Growing empirical evidence suggests that utilizing peer effects optimally is crucial to corporate success. Teasley et al. (2002) study the effect of co-location in software development teams. The authors evaluated the workers’ productivity using measures commonly used in software development. Comparing the war room teams’ scores with those in traditionally arranged offices, they conclude that teams in war rooms are twice as productive as similar teams working in closed offices. A related evidence is reported by Heywood and Jirjahn (2004) who show that blue-collar workers who work jointly in small teams have a lower absentee rate than other similar workers who work alone. An even cleaner evidence on the pure effect of observability on workers’ incentives has been recently documented by Mas and Moretti (2006). Measuring productivity of checkers in a large grocery chain, they find that introducing a highly productive worker into a shift boosts the productivity of incumbent peers who are directly in the line-of-sight of the new worker. We will come back to these papers when pointing out some of the
1 Modeling dislocation contrasts obtained by 2 accurate-Electron Channeling Contrast Imaging for 3 characterizing deformation mechanisms in bulk 4 materials 5

Electron Channeling Contrast Imaging (ECCI) is becoming a powerful tool in Materials 14 Science for characterizing deformation defects. Dislocations observed by ECCI in Scanning 15 Electron Microscope, exhibit several features depending on the crystal orientation relative to the 16 incident beam (white/black line on a dark/bright background). In order to bring new insights 17 concerning these contrasts, we report an original theoretical approach based on the dynamical 18 diffraction theory. Our calculations led, for the first time, to an explicit formulation of the 19 backscattered intensity as a function of various physical and practical parameters governing the 20 experiment. Intensity profiles are modeled for dislocations parallel to the sample surface for 21 different channeling conditions. All theoretical predictions are consistent with experimental 22 results. 23
Effect of NP Type on L 2 Raising Acquisition

This study investigates whether adult L2 learners of English (L1 Korean) comprehend raising constructions with an experiencer phrase (e.g., John seems to Mary to be happy), and finds better comprehension when a lexical NP is raised across a pronominal experiencer (e.g., John seems to her to be happy) compared to a pronoun raised across a lexical NP (e.g., He seems to Mary to be happy). These results parallel the pattern of raising in child English and are consistent with a processing-based approach to intervention effects in both L1 and L2 acquisition. The present paper is structured as follows. Section 1 introduces raising constructions in English and in Korean. Section 2 reviews previous acquisition studies on raising. Section 3 presents the experiment which tested Korean learners’ comprehension of English raising constructions. Lastly, section 4 discusses the findings and concludes the paper.
Secure User Data in Cloud Computing through Prevention of Service Traffic Hijacking and Using Encryption Algorithms

Cloud computing has become an emerging technology infrastructure in the IT industry. Reasons for the sudden boom of this model were the advantages it offers to the users. Cloud computing is a service over a network connection which shares enormous amount of resources rather than having to build the infrastructure in house. Other than sharing resources cloud computing offers flexibility, reduced capital costs, achieving economies of scale, globalize workforce etc. Cloud computing technology has some serious drawbacks which now has overrun the benefits it offers. The security of the user data is crucial when adopting a cloud computing model. Several methods have been implemented in securing user data such introducing encryption algorithms. Service traffic hijacking creates a major concern on using cloud computing for this allows the hacker to access the credentials of the genuine user hence he or she can eavesdrop on the user’s activities and transactions, manipulate user data, return false information and redirect your client to illegitimate sites. In this paper we propose remediation to prevent intruders of accessing unauthorized data and using and encryption algorithm efficiently to neutralize the security threats.
Herpes Simplex Virus-1 in Oral Pemphigus Vulgaris : A Causal Versus Casual Relationship ( Case Report )

Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a group of autoimmune bullous diseases that results in multiple chronic mucocutaneous bullae, erosions, and/or ulcers presenting orally first. Several previous studies reported that viral infections, especially herpes simplex virus (HSV), may trigger activation of pemphigus. The relationship between PV and viral infection can be classified into 3 groups which are casual, such as viral infection due to a complication of immunosuppressive therapy, causal, HSV is a trigger before the pemphigus is present, and studies that were examined for HSV infection in PV patients but could not find any evidence. A 37-year-old male had a 4-week history of oral ulceration. Aphthous stomatitis was initially diagnosed, and was treated with chlorhexidine gluconate. Intraoral examination revealed multiple painful erosion with sloughing on the buccal mucosa, labial mucosa and dorsum of the tongue. Anti-HSV-1 IgG was reactive, while ANA test was not. Histopathology examination revealed suprabasal acantholysis. The patient was diagnosed with oral PV concurrent HSV. We used acyclovir, systemic and topical corticosteroids, chlorhexidine gluconate and multivitamin, as well aspharmacological therapy. Some lesion healed without any further clinical sequel within 6 months. The patient is still under observation without any sign of relapse. In this case, HSV was a trigger before the oral PV presented. It is important to know the relationship between oral PV and HSV in order to provide appropriate therapy to the patient and whether or not to use antiviral in oral PV therapy.

Imported Infections with Mansonella perstans Nematodes

M perstans is a filarial nematode present in 33 countries in sub-Saharan Africa; sporadic cases have been reported in Latin America, mostly in the Caribbean and along the Atlantic coast (1); ≈20% of inhabitants of diseaseendemic countries are infected (2). Flies of the genus Culicoides transmit infective larvae to humans. Larvae transform into macrofilariae, which live in serous cavities of the human body, where they produce microfilariae, which are released into peripheral blood 9–12 months after infection. Few studies/case series have reported signs and symptoms (e.g., subcutaneous edema, rash, abdominal pain, Imported Infections with Mansonella perstans Nematodes, Italy
1 FDI , Diversification and Growth : An Empirical Assessment for MENA Countries

Export diversification has become a priority goal for the development strategies of the MENA countries. FDI can act as a complementary factor in the discovery process. In this paper, we aim at measuring the effects of exports‟ diversification on growth in MENA countries. Within the framework of an endogenous growth model estimated by the GMM system method, we provide robust evidence that FDI do not necessarily have the same effect on growth according to the diversification level. We also show that while FDI have a positive and significant effect on the MENA countries‟ growth, it is most probably rather linked to the direct effect on value added and employment than to the spillover effects of technological transfer.
An Adversarial Winograd Schema Challenge at Scale

The Winograd Schema Challenge (WSC), proposed by Levesque et al. (2011) as an alternative to the Turing Test, was originally designed as a pronoun resolution problem that cannot be solved based on statistical patterns in large text corpora. However, recent studies suggest that current WSC datasets, even when composed carefully by experts, are still prone to such biases that statistical methods can exploit. We introduce WINOGRANDE, a new collection of WSC problems that are adversarially constructed to be robust against spurious statistical biases. While the original WSC dataset provided only 273 instances, WINOGRANDE includes 43,985 instances, half of which are determined as adversarial. Key to our approach is a novel adversarial filtering algorithm AFLITE for systematic bias reduction, combined with a careful crowdsourcing design. Despite the significant increase in training data, the performance of existing stateof-the-art methods remains modest (61.6%) and contrasts with high human performance (90.8%) for the binary questions. In addition, WINOGRANDE allows us to use transfer learning for achieving new state-of-the-art results on the original WSC and related datasets. Finally, we discuss how biases lead to overestimating the true capabilities of machine commonsense.
