Dietary sources of energy, protein, unavailable carbohydrate and fat in 11–12‐year‐old English children in 1990 compared with results in 1980

There is little information on the food intake of adolescents or on how the intake of adolescents has changed. Yet this information is essential to assess the effect of dietary health education and is valuable in formulating future advice. This paper reports the dietary sources of energy, protein, unavailable carbohydrate and fat in the diet of 379 11– and 12-year-old schoolchildren in 1990, and compares these data with similar information collected in 1980. Each child completed two 3-day dietary records between January and July, and was interviewed by one dietitian to verify and enlarge upon the information recorded to obtain a quantitative measure of food intake. The children attended the same seven middle schools in south Northumberland as 375 children of the same age who recorded their diet using the same method 10 years previously (Hackett et al., 1983). Food tables were used to calculate nutrient intake. Although the total intakes of energy, protein, unavailable carbohydrate and fat changed little over the 10-year period, there were changes in the importance of food groups as contributors to total intakes. Notably, an increase in the role played by confectionery which became the second largest contributor to total energy intake and an increase in the importance of meat and its products as a source of energy, protein and fat. The proportion of energy, protein and fat being derived from milk decreased. Chips remained the largest single source of unavailable carbohydrate, and an important energy and fat source, while the role played by ‘wholemeal’ breads in unavailable carbohydrate intake had increased.

Alternativas de Mejora de la Participación Educativa de las Familias como Instrumento para la Calidad Educativa

En la presente investigación, se analizan las alternativas que tanto el profesorado como las familias plantean para mejorar la calidad de la Participación Educativa. La muestra la forman un grupo de 8 expertos educativos, una muestra piloto de 35 profesores y una muestra definitiva de 695 profesores y 1305 padres y madres de 223 centros educativos pertenecientes a 30 municipios de Tenerife. El diseño empleado en esta investigación ha sido cualitativo. Las respuestas a la pregunta, de modalidad abierta, sobre cuáles son las alternativas que creen pudieran mejorar la calidad de la participación se sometieron a un proceso de categorización mediante la técnica del análisis de contenido. Para ambos sectores, las alternativas para mejorar la calidad de la participación pasa, principalmente, por cambios educativos-pedagógicos. La alternativa más importante va a diferir según se trate de un sector o de otro, aunque en ambos dicha alternativa refleja una carencia en el otro sector. Para el profesorado, la alternativa de mejora pasa por cubrir la carencia de formación de las familias mientras que para los padres llenar el vacío de información que tienen por parte del profesorado. Por su parte, los expertos educativos insisten más en propiciar la importancia que la sociedad debe darle a la educación con la defensa de un servicio público de calidad a través de la creación de plataformas conjuntas para la gestión democrática. Además demandan que los currículos sean menos academicistas y que los objetivos educativos se adecuen más a la realidad social que vive el alumnado.
Application of transcranial ultrasonography in diagnosis of Parkinson disease

Objective To assess the clinical value of transcranial sonography (TCS) in diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods Eighty PD patients (PD group) and 80 normal people (control group) underwent TCS. The echo singal intensity of the nigra was classified into Ⅰ—Ⅴ as half quantitative analysis. When the echo singal intensity of the substantia nigra ≥Ⅲ,the echo enhanced area 0.20 cm2 and the ratio of substantia nigra hyperechogenicity to the area of the whole midbrain (S/M) ≥7%,the patient was thought to be with PD. Results TCS detected more patients (58/80,72.50%) with substantia nigra hyperechogenicity in PD group than those in control group (10/80,12.50%). In PD group,the median and the quartile of the area of bilateral substantia nigar hyperechogenicity was 0.46 cm2 and 0.69 cm2,those of S/M was 10.00 and 14.00,respectively,greater than those of control group (both P0.01). The sensitivity and the speciality of TCS on diagnosis of PD was 72.50% and 87.50%,respectively. Conclusion According to the change of nigra echogenicity,TCS may provide some valuable information for clinical diagnosis of PD,the main limiting factor is that some individuals are unsuitable to the exam for their unadequated temporale bone windows.

A Test of Symmetry Based on the Kernel Kullback-Leibler Information with Application to Base Deficit Data

The assumption of the symmetry of the underlying distribution is important to many statistical inference and modeling procedures. This paper provides a test of symmetry using kernel density estimation and the Kullback-Leibler information. Based on simulation studies, the new test procedure outperforms other tests of symmetry found in the literature, including the Runs Test of Symmetry. We illustrate our new procedure using real data.

Ulcerative colitis, autoimmune hemolytic anemia and primary sclerosing cholangitis in a child

A 15-month-old female who initially presented with autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is described. She developed bloody stools and was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (UC). Investigations of persistent hepatomegaly revealed primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). The association of AIHA, UC and PSC has never been reported. All these conditions entail impaired immunoregulation. Patients with a clustering of autoimmune diseases may help to delineate the pathogenesis of UC. Autoimmune phenomena may be prominent in inflammatory bowel disease. UC, in particular, exhibits a high incidence of associated autoimmune diseases including hypothyroidism, PSC, vitiligo and alopecia areata. AIHA is well described in 0.5% to 1.0% of adult UC patients but has not been reported in children with UC.
Strategies and focus at an integrated, interprofessional training ward

For the last ten years, the main characteristics of the education for students at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Linköping, Sweden, have been problem based learning (PBL) together with programme integration. A few years ago, rotation at the Training ward at the Department of Orthopaedics was made a compulsory element for students in the six programmes. The students practise teamwork in a realistic care environment under professional supervision. An evaluation of the first year at this training ward was carried out partly based on qualitative data from students from all the programmes involved. The qualitative analysis, based on interviews and the critical incident method, focused on the integrated teamwork and how the students make use of everyday activities in order to collaborate and understand each other's competences. Students integrated by applying three different strategies. These strategies were delegation, differentiation and discussion together with a situational focus on the specific task, on an individual basis or on sessions with students and tutors. Critical examples of efficient situations for training interprofessional work were joint rehabilitation work with just one fellow student, planning for the patient going home and emergency situations. Two different modes of integration were used by the students; the equal work distribution approach and the life-long learning approach. The main differences between the students are described in terms of contrasting forms of experiencing. This part of the evaluation leads to a more profound understanding of the premises of interprofessional, undergraduate training.
Graphs, Maps, Trees: Abstract Models for a Literary History

"In this groundbreaking book, Franco Moretti argues that literature scholars should stop reading books and start counting, graphing, and mapping them instead. In place of the traditionally selective literary canon of a few hundred texts, Moretti offers charts, maps and time lines, developing the idea of “distant reading” into a full-blown experiment in literary historiography, in which the canon disappears into the larger literary system.

Evaluation of four digital classifiers for automated cartography of local soil classes based on reflectance and elevation in Mexico

The objective of this research is to evaluate the precision and accuracy of local soil class maps generated with four computer algorithms: minimum distance, parallelepiped, maximum likelihood, and artificial neural networks, using digital elevation models and spectral signatures of local soil classes as input data. The study was done in the states of Mexico, San Luis Potosi, and Veracruz. Statistical binomial proportion tests were done to compare the difference between maps' precision and accuracy. The conclusion was that the combination of reflectance and elevation improved the quality of soil class maps produced by CAC, due to the reflectance variation of local soil classes according to altitude, which helped to better identify them. The best precision was 84% and the best accuracy was 30%.
Attack characterisation of compressed images

We propose the use of robust watermarks to enable the characterisation of attacks even after lossy compression, such as JPEG and JPEG2000. A previously constructed Bayesian framework is used to allow characterisation of attacks from a predetermined library, and the double watermarking technique as earlier proposed by the authors is employed to generate the features used to drive the classifier. The results show that the developed techniques perform well for both types of compression.
Purse-String Suture Technique: A New Method of Arthroscopic Shoulder Stabilization

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to describe a new arthroscopic technique, the "Purse-String technique," which addresses the Bankart lesion and the capsule laxity, using a single suture anchor. The repair is 3-fold: firstly, a labral repair; secondly, the creation of an anterior bumper; and finally, a capsular shift. The technique has advantages in terms of technical simplicity, reduced operative time, and avoidance of multiple suture anchors. We describe the operative technique and clinical results.
Le concept "AMAP". Promotion et mise en pratique(s) d’une nouvelle norme d’échange entre consommateurs et producteurs agricoles

Cet article propose une reflexion sur la dimension spatiale des normes, de leur production mais aussi de leur circulation et appropriation. Le cas du concept "AMAP", visant a produire des echanges relocalises et solidaires entre consommateurs et producteurs agricoles, est analyse a partir des documents normatifs qu’il a pu susciter ainsi que d’une enquete de terrain sur sa mise en pratique(s) en Basse-Normandie. D’abord, si les AMAP (Associations pour le maintien d’une agriculture paysanne) sont nees en France en 2001, il ne s’agit pas d’une invention ex nihilo mais de l’adaptation locale de ce qui se fait dans d’autres pays depuis plusieurs decennies (CSA, Teikei.). Plus encore, si les promoteurs du concept ont tout fait pour le graver dans le marbre, en produisant notamment une charte deposee a l’INPI, son devenir effectif a pu prendre de nombreuses formes selon les contextes locaux, revelant ainsi que la mise en pratique(s) d’une norme meme codifiee n’est pas toujours synonyme de stricte application. Dans les deux cas, tout se passe comme si adoption et adaptation etaient indissociables.
Mutual authentication of RFID system using synchronized secret information = 동기화된비밀정보를 이용한 RFID 시스템에서의 상호 인증 기법

Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) is an automatic identification system, relying on storing and remotely retrieving data about objects we want to manage using devices called “RFID tag”. The RFID system is more useful for various purposes than optical barcode technology since the RFID system can identify lots of tags quickly through RF with neither physical nor visual contact. The RFID system can be used in lots of industries such as supply chain management, inventory, storage, etc. and give facilities for individuals with a ubiquitous computing environment. However, RFID system can have security problems inherently if the tag offers no access-control and tamper-resistance mechanisms. RFID system can induce an information leakage problem of companies and privacy problems of individuals since the RFID tag emits its data to everyone including adversaries. For example, a dishonest company may try to collect information of competing company about physical distribution. By utilizing responses from a tag, an adversary may try to get knowledge of products which an individual user carries or traces a user. In addition, we must consider an attack that an adversary earns unfair profits by responding a reader’s query with forged information. These vulnerabilities make people reluctant to use RFID
Proceso de Cicatrización de heridas de piel, campos endógenos y su relación con las heridas crónicas Wound healing process of skin, endogenous fields related and chronic wounds

Summary Background. The skin wound healing is a highly complex process that can recover tissue integrity allowing regeneration and restoring its functions. Objective. To review literature about normal healing processes and altered.Materials and methods. Research of articles in different databases, which was based on the titles of medical terms (Medical Subject Headings) MESH, with the use of the terms “Wound Healing”, “Pressure Ulcer” and the subheader “Electrical Physiology”, “Electric Stimulation” and “Skin”. Results. The alter of intrinsic or extrinsic factors can lead to chronic wounds, as is evidenced in changes of the skin bioelectrical behavior and its dielectric properties. Activation of cell migration and wound healing this by generating an electrical stimulus exogenous, it’s possible in presence of alterated endogenous fields. Conclusion. The healing process depends on many extrinsic and intrinsic factors, which are easily alterable. For this, it’s essential to fully understand the behavior of the skin to injury and what the mechanisms are altered when it establishes a chronic injury.
Household Food Insecurity is Associated with Heterogeneous Patterns of Diet Quality Across Urban and Rural Regions of Malawi

The nutritional consequences of food insecurity in rural as compared to urban regions of low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) have not been well differentiated. We aimed to determine the region-specific associations of food security with diet diversity, consumption of foods associated with the nutrition transition, and child stunting and overweight. We used data on 12,271 households from the 2010–2011 Malawi Third Integrated Household Survey (IHS3). We used multiple logistic regression analyses to assess the relation between household food security, measured using an adapted version of the Coping Strategies Index (CSI), and consumption of specific food groups and beverages as well as height-for-age Z-score (HAZ) and weight-for-height Z-score (WHZ) of preschool-aged children. Analyses were stratified by urban and rural region. Food insecurity was associated with less diverse diets (p < 0.001), and among urban residents, higher odds of consumption of refined grains and processed vendor foods, and lower odds of consumption of millets (p < 0.05). In adjusted analyses, food security was not strongly associated with child anthropometry. Food insecure urban residents may be especially vulnerable to poor health outcomes associated with both poor access to nutrient-dense foods and diets high in refined and processed foods.
