Red Flag And Auditor Experience Toward Criminal Detection Trough Profesional Skepticism

This research was conducted to examine the influence of red flags variables, auditor work experience and professional auditor skepticism on fraud detection. The test is to seek the influence of red flags variables and work experience on professional auditor skepticism. And the test of the red flag variables and auditor work experience on fraud detection through professional auditor skepticism. The number of samples used was 40 people from 8 Public Accountant offices in Makassar City using the census method. Data collection research uses questionnaires in the form of questionnaires. The data analysis technique used is the Partial Least Square (PLS) Method. The results showed that the red flags and professional skepticism had a positive and significant influence on fraud detection, while the auditor's work experience had a positive but not significant influence on fraud detection. Red flag and auditor work experience have a positive and significant influence on professional skepticism. Professional skepticism is able to mediate the significant influence between red flags and auditor work experience on fraud detection.
Effects of increasing levels of sugar-beet pulp in broiler chicken diets on nutrient digestion and serum lipids

Broiler chickens were fed on a control diet based on maize or on diets including conventionally-dried (standard pulp) or vacuum-dried (Fipec pulp) sugar-beet pulp at inclusion levels of 23, 46 and 92 g/kg. Diets were fed ad lib. except for half of the chickens fed on the control diet which were fed twice daily at a restricted level. Although not statistically significant, chickens given the 23 g sugar-beet pulp/kg diets generally consumed more feed, had increased body weights and converted feed more efficiently at both day 14 and 21 than those fed on the control diet or diets including 46 or 92 g sugar-beet pulp/kg. Ileal digestibilities of organic matter, crude fat and crude protein generally decreased with increasing levels of sugar-beet pulp in the diet. Birds fed on diets including sugar-beet pulp had reduced total serum cholesterol concentrations. There were only minor differences obtained in production responses, serum cholesterol concentrations, digestibilities and carcass composition between chickens fed on the two types of beet pulp, indicating that the different drying procedures had very little influence on the product. High triacylglycerol and total serum cholesterol concentrations obtained for the restricted level-fed chickens demonstrated a meal frequency factor.
Translocation and Fate of 32P-Labeled Salmonella in Mice 1

Summary The translocation and fate of both 32P-labeled and unlabeled Salmonella enteritidis in mice fed, by gavage, 1 ml containing 108 cells of either an 18-hr or 36-hr-old culture was determined. Onset and duration of infection and the presence of viable cells of test culture in organs were confirmed by bacterial and radioisotope analyses. Mice fed 108 32P-18-hr culture had low specific activity on 2nd hr PF (liver, 72; spleen, 61; and cecum, 1480 counts min-1 mg-1 of tissue) increasing to 147, 103, and 2110, respectively, on 6th hr. Mice infected with 32P-36-hr culture showed high specific activity (counts min-1 mg-1 of tissue) on 2nd hr postfeeding; liver, 328; spleen, 227; and cecum, 11,170 followed by a rapid decrease to 234, 216, and 4820 counts min-1 mg-1 of tissue on 6th hr, respectively. This radioisotope study indicated that the 18-hr-old culture was more invasive than the 36-hr culture. Ultrathin sections of duodenum, obtained from infected mice, and stained with fluorescent antibodies revealed the presence of high fluorescent bacterial cells having a retention time of 3 min similar to that of pure S. enteritidis cells. Histopathologically these sections showed regressive changes in surface epithelium of intestinal mucosa of mice fed 18-hr culture and coagulation necrosis was common at tip of the villi. The pathological data showed that 18-hr culture produced a more severe enteritis compared to 36-hr-old culture.
The Study on the Text Classification for Financial News Based on Partial Information

The goal of this paper is to conduct the study on the text classification for financial news based on partial information. By a fact that an indispensable step for the efficient use of topic information embedded in financial news is the text classification, a new neural network called “All Dataset based on CharCNN (Character Convolutional Neural Networks) and GRU (Gated Recurrent Unit)” (in short, AD-CharCGNN) which extracts a part of the financial article and incorporates both time domain and spatial domain to classify financial texts is proposed. In the study of this paper, we first build a character level vocabulary by reading all characters of the financial dataset, part of each financial text which will be classified is mapped to a high-dimensional spatial vector based on the vocabulary. Then, the vectors are convoluted in the spatial domain to get the text local features, and next, the features are processed by the gated recurrent units to get the features contained time information. Finally, the features which contain spatial and time information will be classified through softmax function to get the text classification results. Our results on the experiments confirm that the network proposed in this paper works effectively with the accuracy of 96.45%, and it seems that the text classification algorithm with the feature by taking only partial text part is more suitable for the application of the practice. Meanwhile, for the input with character level vector, the network is not only suitable for Chinese but also for other languages.

The paper is organized in three sections: (a) 2D, multilayer photopolymers, (b) High aspect ratio and (c) 3D micro-stereolithography technologies. In addition the authors mention some development in which photo-polymerization is used to locally create special structures.
Orthodontic treatment acceleration with corticotomy-assisted exposure of palatally impacted canines.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of a new surgical technique in the treatment of palatally impacted canines. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six consecutive patients presenting with bilaterally impacted canines were compared. One canine was surgically exposed using a conventional surgical technique while the contralateral canine was exposed using a corticotomy-assisted technique. RESULTS After tooth movement was completed, statistical comparisons of the two methods revealed a reduction of treatment time of 28-33% for the corticotomy-assisted canines. No significant differences were observed in final periodontal condition between the canines exposed by these two methods. CONCLUSION This preliminary study supports the concept that a corticotomy-assisted surgical technique helps reduce orthodontic treatment time for palatally impacted canines.
Variations in functional decomposition for an existing product: Experimental results

Abstract This paper describes the findings of an experiment on how different engineers understand notions of function and functional breakdown in the context of design by modification. The experiment was conducted with a homogenous group of 20 design engineers, who had all received the same education. The subjects were asked to analyze how a hydraulic pump works and summarize their understanding in a function tree. The subjects were given either the hydraulic pump itself (with part of its casing removed) or a maintenance drawing that showed a section cut of the pump. This paper shows typical outputs of the designers. It discusses the different notions of function that the subjects had and the differences in the function trees they generated. The paper focuses an eight detailed analyses to show the range of approaches the subjects took.
Electromagnetic alpha/proton instabilities in the solar wind

The average flow speed of alpha particles relative to protons in the solar wind is observed to be of the order of or less than the Alfvén speed. This flow, if sufficiently large, can lead to two distinct types of electromagnetic alpha/proton instabilities: magnetosonic and Alfvén. Spatially homogeneous two‐dimensional hybrid simulations of collisionless plasmas are used to study these growing modes and the consequent wave‐particle scattering of each ion component. This scattering reduces the alpha/proton average flow speed, heats the alphas more strongly than the protons, and increases the alpha temperature in the directions perpendicular to the background magnetic field, all of which are consistent with solar wind observations.
A Probabilistic Model of Overt Visual Attention for Cognitive Robots

Visual attention is one of the major requirements for a robot to serve as a cognitive companion for human. The robotic visual attention is mostly concerned with overt attention which accompanies head and eye movements of a robot. In this case, each movement of the camera head triggers a number of events, namely transformation of the camera and the image coordinate systems, change of content of the visual field, and partial appearance of the stimuli. All of these events contribute to the reduction in probability of meaningful identification of the next focus of attention. These events are specific to overt attention with head movement and, therefore, their effects are not addressed in the classical models of covert visual attention. This paper proposes a Bayesian model as a robot-centric solution for the overt visual attention problem. The proposed model, while taking inspiration from the primates visual attention mechanism, guides a robot to direct its camera toward behaviorally relevant and/or visually demanding stimuli. A particle filter implementation of this model addresses the challenges involved in overt attention with head movement. Experimental results demonstrate the performance of the proposed model.
Determinants and Effects of Reserve Prices in Hattrick Auctions

We use a unique hand collected data set of 6,258 auctions from the online football manager game Hattrick to study determinants and effects of reserve prices. We find that chosen reserve prices exhibit both very sophisticated and suboptimal behavior by the sellers. On the one hand, reserve prices are adjusted remarkably nuanced to the resulting sales price pattern. However, reserve prices are too clustered at zero and at multiples of e 50,000 as to be consistent with fully rational behavior. We recover the value distribution and simulate the loss in expected revenue from suboptimal reserve prices. Finally, we find evidence for the sunk cost fallacy as there is a substantial positive effect on the reserve price when the player has been acquired previously.
Using OSCE as an Assessment Tool for Clinical Skills: Nursing Students' Feedback

Abs tract: Objective Stru c tu red Clinical Examination (OSCE) has been widely used in the assessment of s t u dents ' clinical performance. Res earch revealed that it is an effective evaluation tool for nurs ing s tudents ' clinical s kills . The OSCE w as firs t introduced into Faculty of Nurs ing, M ans oura Univers ity by the Materni ty and Gynecology Department which used it as an assessm ent tool for third year nurs ing s tudents ' clinical performance following their completion of M aternity and Gynecology Course during the 2007-2008 academic year. The successful outcome of this application encouraged the Crit ical Care Nurs ing Department to use the OSCE in evaluating firs t year s tudents ' clinical s kills following thei r completion of Firs t Ai d Course. The main aim of this study was to investi gate nursi ng s tudents ' feedback about the OSCE a s an as s es s ment tool for their clinical s kills . This s tudy has a cross sectional descriptive design. The total number of undergraduate nursing students who participated in the s tudy was 724 (310 of third year nurs ing s tu d ents and 414 of firs t year nurs ing s tudents ). The questi onnaire developed by Pierre et al., (2004) was adapted in this s tudy. The ques tionnaire assesses nursi ng students' evaluation of the OSCE attributes, the quality of OSCE performance, and OSCE scoring and objectivity. The results of this study indicate that OSCE has been accepted by the majority of nurs ing s tudents a s a n e v a lu a tion tool for their clinical s kills . M os t s tudents viewed OSCE as a fair assessment tool which covered a wide range of knowled g e , minimized the chance of failing and highlighted areas of weaknesses. Going through the OSCE was a useful practical experience for nursing students. However, several students felt that OSCE was very stres s fu l. The feedback received regarding this evaluation tool provides evidence that OSCE is an acceptable, use ful as s es s ment tool for nurs ing s tudents ' clinical s kills . Such feedback is cons idere d v a luable for further development and enhancement of OSCE.
Long-term Quality of Life After Distal Subtotal and Total Gastrectomy: Symptom- and Behavior-oriented Consequences

Objective:This study assessed long-term quality of life (QoL) after subtotal gastrectomy (STG) and total gastrectomy (TG) by comparing groups matched by a set of patient factors at and beyond postoperative 5 years. The cause of QoL gaps based on symptomatic and behavioral consequences of surgery were investigated. Background:Survivors after STG and TG were matched by a set of patient factors (age, sex, stage, chemotherapy, and postoperative period). QoL data were obtained from 53 and 36 pairs of survivors at and beyond postoperative 5 years, respectively. Methods:The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer QoL Questionnaire (QLQ)-C30 and QLQ-STO22 were used to assess QoL. QoL comparisons between STG and TG groups were made for 5-year survivors and long-term survivors. Results:Five-year survivors after TG showed significantly worse QoL in social functioning, nausea and vomiting, eating restrictions, and taste. For long-term survivors, QoL inferiority of the TG group was observed only in eating restrictions. Among 4 items constituting eating restrictions, the TG group tended to exhibit worse QoL in 2 items (enjoyable meals and social meals). Conclusions:Although 5-year survivors after TG still suffer from QoL inferiority from symptomatic and behavioral consequences of surgery, inferiority from behavioral consequences will persist even after symptomatic inferiority to STG survivors is no longer valid. Efforts to ameliorate persistent QoL inferiority in TG survivors should be directed toward restoring dietary behaviors, where TG survivors are prevented from enjoyable meals and social meals.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy: an old anesthesia problem revisited

Patients with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy suffer from a progressive deterioration in muscle secondary to a defect in the dystrophin gene. As such, they are susceptible to perioperative respiratory, cardiac and other complications, such as rhabdomyolysis. Inhalational anesthetic agents have been implicated as a cause of acute rhabdomyolysis that can resemble malignant hyperthermia (MH). This article reviews perioperative ‘MH‐like’ reactions reported in muscular dystrophy patients and groups them into three categories according to clinical presentation. The etiology and underlying pathophysiological process responsible for these reactions is discussed and recommendations are proposed for the safe anesthetic management of these patients.
Binocular Vision of Bilaterally Pseudophakic Eyes with Induced Astigmatism

Purpose Induced myopic astigmatism improves the monocular near logMAR (logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution) acuity of pseudophakes with monofocal intraocular lens implants but with a small loss in distance acuity. The impact of induced astigmatism on binocular vision of pseudophakes remains unknown. This study determined the impact of bilaterally induced astigmatism on binocular distance and near logMAR and stereoacuity of bilateral pseudophakes with monofocal intraocular lens implants. Methods Distance (3 m) and near (40 cm) logMAR acuity and near (40 cm) stereoacuity were measured in 15 bilateral pseudophakes with 10 different combinations of induced astigmatism. Combinations were chosen such that one eye had no astigmatism or 1 diopter (D) myopic astigmatism at 90 degrees axis or 1 D hyperopic astigmatism at 90 degrees axis. The fellow eye had the same error or that with orthogonal axis (180 degrees) or different magnitude (2.5 D) or opposite polarity. Results Distance logMAR acuity deteriorated by up to 0.2 logMAR units from median best-corrected values (−0.06 logMAR) only for bilaterally induced (p < 0.01) but not for unilaterally induced (p > 0.9) astigmatism. Near logMAR acuity and stereoacuity improved by up to 0.25 logMAR units and 130 arc sec from their respective median uncorrected values (0.65 logMAR and 225.8 arc sec) for induced myopic astigmatism (p < 0.001). Near acuity was similar or worse than uncorrected values for induced hyperopic astigmatism (p ≥ 0.003). Stereoacuity was better with parallel than with orthogonal axes of induced myopic astigmatism in the two eyes (p = 0.001). LogMAR acuity did not change with axis of astigmatism in the two eyes (p > 0.6). Conclusions Distance and near logMAR acuity and stereoacuity of bilateral pseudophakes vary with the combination of astigmatism induced before two eyes. Combinations with myopic astigmatism partly benefit binocular near vision, albeit with a loss of distance vision. Near stereoacuity is better with parallel than with orthogonal axes of myopic astigmatism in the two eyes. Visual performance is equal to or worse than uncorrected condition for hyperopic astigmatism.
No influence of serotonin levels in foetal bovine sera on radiation-induced bystander effects and genomic instability

Abstract Purpose: The aim of this study was to contribute to an inter-laboratory investigation within the Non-Targeted Effects of Ionising Radiation Integrated project (NOTE) (2006–2010) to investigate the role of serum serotonin concentration on radiation-induced bystander effects using our successful experimental design. Two sera of high and low serotonin levels were tested alongside standard serum used in our laboratory. Materials and methods: Primary Human Fibroblast 19 (HF19) cells were sham/irradiated with 0.5 Gy alpha-particles, in medium supplemented with serum of different levels of serotonin. Filtered medium was transferred to unirradiated HF19 bystander cells. Cells from irradiated and bystander populations were harvested for chromosomal analysis at early and delayed times post-irradiation/media transfer to assess initial damaging effects and induction of delayed chromosomal instability respectively. Results: Chromosomal damage was elevated to significant levels (p = ≤ 0.005) above respective controls in both cell populations in all groups. Induction of delayed chromosomal instability was significantly observed in all groups at delayed time post irradiation/medium transfer. Furthermore, induction of bystander effects at early and delayed times was not significantly different between groups. Conclusions: No effect of serotonin on the induction of either bystander effects of genomic instability was observed using this experimental system.
Modeling Asymmetric Operation in Double-Gate Junctionless FETs by Means of Symmetric Devices

This paper aims to model asymmetric operation in double-gate junctionless FETs. Following a rigorous approach, we find that asymmetric operation can be simulated by combining two symmetric junctionless FETs, what we call the virtual symmetric device concept. In addition to the benefits in terms of compactness and coherence, such equivalence is used to develop a complete charge-based model for independent double-gate junctionless architectures, including mismatch in gate capacitance and material work functions.
Effects of certain herbicides and their combinations on nitrate and nitrite reduction.

A study was made concerning the effect of various herbicides, when used alone or in combination, on nitrite accumulation in excised leaves of wheat (Triticum aestivum L., var. ;Centurk'). Treatment of leaves with photosynthetic inhibitor herbicides, known to interfere with the transfer of light energy, caused accumulation of nitrite under illuminated, aerobic conditions. When certain other herbicides, which do not interfere with the photosynthetic process, were applied to leaves and incubated under dark, aerobic conditions, nitrite accumulations were enhanced over those treated with photosynthetic inhibitors or the controls. The combination of photosynthetic inhibitor herbicides and certain other "nonphotosynthetic inhibitor" herbicides caused relatively large amounts of nitrite to accumulate in light or in darkness. Nitrite accumulation occurs when nitrate and nitrite reduction are not in balance. The proposed actions of the herbicides used in this study are discussed. This discussion provides a rationale for the accumulation of nitrite by the herbicide-treated leaves.
The extensor digitorum brevis: histological and histochemical aspects

Samples of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle (EDB) obtained at necropsy from 26 subjects without known neuromuscular disease were examined histologically and histochemically. In the two youngest subjects, aged 2 months and 8 years, a mosaic distribution of type I and type II fibres was present. From the second decade onwards, increasing with age, the mosaic pattern was gradually replaced by groups of type I and type II fibres and areas of grouped fibre atrophy appeared. It is suggested that these findings may be explained by a slow process of denervation and reinnervation. This process does not seem to occur to the same extent in three other distal limb muscles from which specimens were also examined.
Variable laterality of corticospinal tract axons that regenerate after spinal cord injury as a result of PTEN deletion or knock‐down

Corticospinal tract (CST) axons from one hemisphere normally extend and terminate predominantly in the contralateral spinal cord. We previously showed that deleting the gene phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) in the sensorimotor cortex enables CST axons to regenerate after spinal cord injury and that some regenerating axons extend along the “wrong” side. Here, we characterize the degree of specificity of regrowth in terms of laterality. PTEN was selectively deleted via cortical adeno‐associated virus (AAV)‐Cre injections in neonatal PTEN‐floxed mice. As adults, mice received dorsal hemisection injuries at T12 or complete crush injuries at T9. CST axons from one hemisphere were traced by unilateral biotinylated dextran amine (BDA) injections in PTEN‐deleted mice with spinal cord injury and in noninjured PTEN‐floxed mice that had not received AAV‐Cre. In noninjured mice, 97.9 ± 0.7% of BDA‐labeled axons in white matter and 88.5 ± 1.0% of BDA‐labeled axons in gray matter were contralateral to the cortex of origin. In contrast, laterality of CST axons that extended past a lesion due to PTEN deletion varied across animals. In some cases, regenerated axons extended predominantly on the ipsilateral side; in other cases, axons extended predominantly contralaterally, and in others, axons were similar in numbers on both sides. Similar results were seen in analyses of cases from previous studies using short hairpin (sh)RNA‐mediated PTEN knock‐down. These results indicate that CST axons that extend past a lesion due to PTEN deletion or knock‐down do not maintain the contralateral rule of the noninjured CST, highlighting one aspect of how the resultant circuitry from regenerating axons may differ from that of the uninjured CST.
