Clinical Evaluation of Intravenous Propofol Alone or in Combination With Diazepam, Ketamine Hcl and Thiopental Sodium to Induce General Anaesthesiain Dogs

This study aimed to evaluate hemato-biochemial and clinico-physiological effects in addition to the anesthetic properties of propofol alone or in combination with diazepam, ketamine Hcl and thiopental sodium. For this purpose, 12 apparently healthy male dogs were randomly divided into four equal groups. A, B, C and D . All dogs were permedicated with (1mg/kg xylazine Hcl (1mg/kg Bwt/IM) then intravenous anesthesia was induced in group A with(5 mg/kg Bwt)propofol or with propofol and ketamine hydrochloride mixture( 2mg/kg Bwt of each drug in group B ,or with propofol and thiopental mixture (2.5 mg/kg propofol and 6,5 mg/kg thiopental) in group c while group D receveid propofol (2mg/kg Bwt) followed 0.2mg/kg Bwt diazepam. Blood samples were collected from the four groups 15 minutes before anesthesia induction, then at (15, 45, 75 and 120) minutes after treatments for the hemato-biochemical evaluation, also clinico-physiological observations were recorded at the same previous times. A slight alterations in some physiological parameters and hemato-biochemical values was observed after anesthesia induction in the four groups, but it still safe to induce general anesthesia in dogs. Moreover , propofol thiopental mixture showed longest anesthesia duration with complete muscle relaxation and sedation that is suitable for most surgical operations.
Relations Between Variables and Trends Over Time in Rdd Telephone and Nonprobability Sample Internet Surveys

Survey researchers today can choose between relatively higher-cost probability sample telephone surveys and lower-cost surveys of nonprobability samples of potential respondents who complete questionnaires via the internet. Previous studies generally indicated that the former yield more accurate distributions of variables, but little work to date has explored the impact of mode and sampling on associations between variables and trends over time. The current study did so using parallel surveys conducted in 2010 focused on opinions, events, behavioral intentions, and behaviors involving that year’s Decennial Census. A few comparisons indicated that the two data streams yielded similar results, but the two methods frequently yielded different results, often strikingly so, and the results yielded by the probability samples seem likely to be the more accurate ones.
Why Do Some Farmers and Ranchers Overcome Limitations from Accidents and Illnesses and Others Do Not? AgrAbility Works for Most.

This article provides a summary review of several articles with data about the successful outcomes from the AgrAbility intervention for farmers and ranchers with functional limitations. The AgrAbility Project increased participants’ self-reports of quality of life, independent living and working, and/or psychological wellbeing. The article also hypothesizes that mastery motivation is a reason why some participants benefit more than others and provides some examples of successful AgrAbility intervention. Participants’ individual mastery motivation propels them to overcome their physical limitations and to return to as many aspects of their farming or ranching careers as possible.
Implementasi Etnosains dalam Pembelajaran IPA di SD Muhammadiyah Alam Surya Mentari Surakarta

The swift flow of globalization has led to increasingly eroded Indonesian local culturalvalues. This has caused a shift in neglected cultural values and local wisdom. Therefore,an approach is needed, namely ethnoscience in the learning process. This studypurposed to determine whether The Elementary School of Muhammadiyah Alam SuryaMentari has applied ethnoscience in science learning and describe the implementationof ethnoscience based on science learning in The Elementary School of MuhammadiyahAlam Surya Mentari.The method used was descriptive qualitative research design. Theresults of the study showed that the planning of science learning based on ethnoscienceapproach in This School was still unplanned, but the school had unconsciously implementedethnoscience approach. The implementation of science based on ethnosciencelearning was by integrating between the material with the environment, culture, and socialin the environment. Evaluation of the implementation of ethnoscience based on sciencelearning included cognitive, affective, and psychomotor evaluation in accordance withevaluation standards in the 2013 curriculum.
Isotopic Signatures of Supernova Nucleosynthesis in Presolar Silicon Carbide Grains of Type AB with Supersolar 14N/15N Ratios

We report high-resolution C, N, Al, Si, and S isotope data of 38 presolar SiC grains of type AB. Seventeen of these grains are of subtype AB1 (14N/15N < 440 = solar) and 20 of subtype AB2 (14N/15N ≥ 440), previously proposed to be mainly from supernovae (AB1) and J-type carbon stars (AB2), respectively. Our data are compatible with previously obtained isotope data of AB grains, except that 26Al/27Al ratios of AB1 grains span a narrower range. The data are compared with predictions from supernova models that consider H ingestion into the He shell during the pre-supernova phase. In these models a mixture of explosive H and He burning occurs at the bottom of the He shell during passage of the supernova shock, forming the so-called O/nova zone. Mixing matter from the O/nova zone with matter from the overlying He/C zone and the stellar envelope shows that the isotopic compositions and trends of both AB1 and AB2 grains can be matched within the model uncertainties. This demonstrates that supernovae should be considered as potential sources of AB2 grains, in addition to J-type carbon stars and born-again asymptotic giant branch stars, as previously proposed.
Audit committee characteristics and earnings conservatism in banking sector: empirical study from GCC

We examine four audit committee characteristics, including the audit committee independence, size of audit committee, audit committee diligence and financial experience of the audit committee members to identify if any of these characteristics differentially impact the earnings conservatism. The sample included 59 banks from Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries: Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates during the period of 2012–2016. To achieve this goal, the study measures earnings conservatism using market-to-book approach. By using panel fixed-effect regression, our analysis reveals that bigger audit committees with more independence and members with financial experience are more likely to be associated with earnings conservatism in GCC banks. We also find that the audit committee diligence has no impact on earnings conservatism.
Predicting the Downward and Surface Influence of the February 2018 and January 2019 Sudden Stratospheric Warming Events in Subseasonal to Seasonal (S2S) Models

Using the real‐time predictions from 11 models, this study analyzes the prediction of the downward propagation and surface impact of the 2018 and 2019 sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs). These two SSWs differed both in their morphology types (2018: split; 2019: displacement followed by split) and magnitudes (the former being stronger). With a large sample size (>2,200) of multimodel ensemble forecasts, it is revealed that the strength of the SSW is more important than the vortex morphology in determining the magnitude of its downward impact, with strong SSWs more likely to propagate downward than weak SSWs. Therefore, based on the probabilistic forecasts, the observed strong SSW in February 2018 was more likely to have a downward and surface impact than the January 2019 SSW. The relationship between the 10‐hPa dominant wave number and the 100‐hPa polar cap height (or the Northern Annular Mode) is weak, implying that the dominant wave number might not be the primary factor determining the downward propagation of SSWs in the two analyzed cases. Hence, the high polar cap height (or negative Northern Annular Mode) response in the lower stratosphere and troposphere following the February 2018 SSW is mainly attributed to its strong intensity rather than the split morphology. Further, the 2‐m temperature anomaly pattern following the January 2019 SSW is not forecasted due to its weak downward propagation, whereas the 2‐m temperature in North Eurasia, Middle East, south China, and eastern United States could be forecasted for the downward propagating February 2018 SSW. However, regional rainfall anomalies are poorly forecasted (both in a deterministic and probabilistic sense) for both SSWs.
Long-term results of limbal conjunctival autograft transplantation associated with an amniotic membrane in patients with total limbal stem cells deficiency

Purpose: To evaluate the long term visual results, effectiveness, and safety of limbal conjunctival autograft transplantation associated with an amniotic membrane (AM) transplantation in patients with total limbal stem cell deficiency. Methods: A retrospective study involving 22 eyes of 22 patients with unilateral limbal stem cell deficiency who attended to Oftalmosalud Instituto de Ojos between September 2009 and May 2017 and who were operated with limbal stem cell transplantation associated with cryopreserved AM transplantation. Successful transplantation and associated complications were assessed at 1 year of follow-up and in the last follow up time. Success was defined as epithelial stability, no corneal neovascularization, no conjunctival inflammation, and no symblepharon. Statistical analysis was performed using Stata 13 software. Results: Patients included had 54.4% (12 eyes) alkali burn, 36.36% (8 eyes) acid burn, 9.09% (2 eyes) fire burn. 100% of the patients had total corneal neovascularization. Visual acuity without correction improved significantly from 2.22 LogMAR (DS: 0.81) to 0.78 LogMAR (DS: 0.39, p <.001) at 3.27 years of follow-up. 100% of patients gain 1 or more lines of vision. Transplant success was achieved in 63.63% (14/22) of the patients. The most frequent cause of failure was recurrent neovascularization. The most frequent postoperative complication was the dry eye in 81.81% (18 eyes) of the patients. Conclusions: Limbal conjunctiva autograft transplantation associated with the amniotic membrane is effective in the treatment of total unilateral limbal stem cells deficiency, generating a significant improvement in the visual acuity of these patients.
THE EFFECT OF DEEP-SLOW AND REGULAR BREATHING ON PAIN INTENSITY OF BURN DRESSING

Aims: Burn pain is one of the severest and most consistent types of pain. Patients who suffer from burn usually experience the highest level of pain at the time of dressing change. The aim of the present study is “determining the effect of deep-slow and regular breathing on pain intensity of dressing in patients with burns”. Methods: This study is a randomized clinical trial in two intervention and control groups which investigate the pain in 68 patients referring to the burn ward of Kashani hospital of Shahrekord in the period of March 2011 to August 2011 through random and convenient sampling, these patients were in one of intervention or control group. Data were collected with visual analogue scale and analyzed by using SPSS, descriptive statistic test, independent t-test and chi-square. Results: At first the mean of dressing pain intensity score before and after intervention in intervention group was 5.82, 3.66 and in control group was 5.3, 4.8 respectively. There was significant difference between the pain intensity after dressing in intervention and control groups (p=0.04). Conclusions: Using deep-slow and regular breathing can be an important factor in reducing pain intensity during burn dressing.
A Comprehensive Review And Analysis On MRI Based Brain Tumor Segmentation

: Brain tumor is a crucial brain disease that arises because of the group of irregular cells that grows inside and around the brain. Several imaging approaches are used to detect the brain tumor. Among all the imaging technique, a safe and non-invasive imaging technique called the MRI is mainly utilized for brain tumor detection. MRI is considered as a major-medical imaging technique for diagnosing and monitoring brain tumors, and their function for respective treatment. The MRI process of brain tumor identification takes place usually by experienced radiologists. Also for more effective treatment and greater accuracy, clinicians constantly strive in the computer vision based approaches to detect brain tissue from MRI images. In this paper, we presented a comparative study on existing MRI based brain tumor segmentation methods. In addition, we highlight the various algorithms used in different stages of brain tumor segmentation such as pre-processing, feature extraction and classification with its merits and demerits.
Variability of CAPN1 g.5709 C>G and MYF5 g.1911 A>G Polymorphisms in Beef Cattle Imported from Brazil to Turkey

The objective of the present study was to determine genotypic/allelic frequencies and population genetic indices of CAPN1 g.5709 C>G and MYF5 g.1911 A>G polymorphisms in beef cattle imported from Brazil to Turkey. Single nucleotide polymorphisms were carried out using the Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis. A total of 108 bulls, including Angus, Angus×Hereford×Nellore, Brahman, Hereford, Limousine, and Charolais breeds, were genotyped. Concerning the CAPN1, CC genotype was not found in this study. Besides, the G allele frequency was quite high (0.75). Regarding the MYF5, frequency of AA genotype was rather low (4.63%) compared to the other two genotypes, AG and GG. Therefore, the frequency of A allele was quite low (0.21). On the basis of breed-specific evaluation, the highest frequency of GG genotype of the CAPN1 was found in Brahman breed (88.24%) whereas the highest frequency of heterozygous genotype was determined in Charolais breed (85.71%). The frequency of MYF5 GG genotype was found to be very high in Limousine breed (75.00%). Moreover, MYF5 AA genotype was absent in Angus, Brahman, Limousine, and Charolais breeds. The present study may be useful for further genetic analyses conducted on beef cattle imported into Turkey.
Work Precarity and Gig Literacies in Online Freelancing

Many workers have been drawn to the gig economy by the promise of flexible, autonomous work, but scholars have highlighted how independent working arrangements also come with the drawbacks of precarity. Digital platforms appear to provide an alternative to certain aspects of precarity by helping workers find work consistently and securely. However, these platforms also introduce their own demands and constraints. Drawing on 20 interviews with online freelancers, 19 interviews with corresponding clients and a first-hand walkthrough of the Upwork platform, we identify critical literacies (what we call gig literacies), which are emerging around online freelancing. We find that gig workers must adapt their skills and work strategies in order to leverage platforms creatively and productively, and as a component of their ‘personal holding environment’. This involves not only using the resources provided by the platform effectively, but also negotiating or working around its imposed structures and control mechanisms.
Impact of cover crop on corn–soybean productivity and soil water dynamics under different seasonal rainfall patterns

Funding information Mississippi Soybean Promotion Board, Grant/Award Number: 62-2019; Science and Technology Innovation Program of Inner Mongolia of China, Grant/Award Number: KCBJ2018050; National Key Research and Development Program of China, Grant/Award Number: 2018YFF0213406; China Scholarship Council, Grant/Award Number: 201706350218 Abstract The effect of cover crop (CC) on soil water balance and agricultural production is closely related to rainfall amount and distribution in rainfed cropping systems. This study used the root zone water quality model, RZWQM2, calibrated and validated with 4-yr field measurements to predict the effect of planting a winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) CC in a no-till rainfed corn (Zea mays L.)–soybean (Glycine max L.) rotation on soil water balance, crop yield, and grain water-use efficiency (WUE) in northeast Mississippi. Seasonal rainfall for 80 consecutive years (1938–2017) was classified as ‘wet,’ ‘normal,’ and ‘dry’ years using frequency analysis, and the data sets matched chronologically to wheat, corn, and soybean growth periods were used as an input parameter in RZWQM2 simulations. During autumn and spring (early October to early April), the CC reduced deep drainage by 69 (11%), 53 (15%), and 51 mm (21%) in wet, normal, and dry years, respectively. Averaged across 40 yr, the CC decreased surface evaporation by 64 (32%) and 38 mm (24%) for corn and soybean growth periods, respectively. Wheat CC also improved soil water storage in early crop growth period during April–June in any of the three rainfall patterns. Regardless of rainfall patterns, the increase in WUE can be attributed to a decrease in evapotranspiration during cash crop period without sacrificing cash crop yield in the CC system. Introducing CC into cropping systems is beneficial to reduce annual deep drainage and evaporation while maintaining higher crop yields under different rainfall patterns.
Short-term effects of ocular 2% dorzolamide, 0.5% timolol or 0.005% latanoprost on the anterior segment architecture in healthy cats: a prospective study.

Dorzolamide 2%, timolol 0.5% and latanoprost 0.005% are widely used in the medical management of glaucoma in humans and pets. In this study, we wanted to evaluate the effect of these three molecules belonging to different hypotensive families on intraocular pressure (IOP) and anterior segment architecture in clinically healthy cats and compare these data with those obtained in a previous study under the same conditions in healthy dogs. In this prospective study 45 cats were included and divided into 3 homogeneous groups. For 7 days eye drops were instilled in the right eye (treated eye), dorzolamide 2% BID for the first group, timolol 0.5% BID for the second group and latanoprost 0.005% SID for the third group. The left (untreated) eye of all these cats constitute a control group useful for the statistical analysis of the data. On D0 and D7, the IOP was measured with Tonovet® and then, a high frequency ultrasound (ultrasound biomicroscopy UBM) was undertaken under general anesthesia. A biostatistical study of the 1440 data was then performed. Statistical test validated the use of the controlateral eye as a control, and the representativeness of a sample of 15 animals per group. At D7, the IOP of healthy cats treated with dorzolamide 2% BID decreased significantly whereas no variation was obtained with instillation of timolol 0.5% and latanoprost 0.005%. According to our protocol, these three hypotensive molecules do not significantly affect the architecture of the anterior segment of the clinically healthy feline eye as in dogs.
A bounding surface model for anisotropically overconsolidated clay incorporating thermodynamics admissible rotational hardening rule

A bounding surface model is formulated to simulate the behavior of clays that are subject to an anisotropic consolidation stress history. Conventional rotational hardening is revisited from the perspective of thermodynamics. As the free energy cannot be accumulated infinitely upon critical state failure, the deviatoric back stress must vanish. This requires the rotated yield surface to be turned back to eventually align on the hydrostatic axis in the stress plane. Noting that most of the previous propositions violate this restriction, an innovative rotational hardening rule is formulated that is thermodynamically admissible. The bounding surface framework that employs the modified yield surface is applied to simulate elastoplastic deformations for overconsolidated clays, with which the overprediction of strength on the “dry” side can be greatly improved with reasonable results. Other important features, including contractive or dilative response and hardening or softening behavior, can also be well‐captured. It has been shown that the model can simulate three types of reconstituted clays that are sheared with initial conditions over a wide range of anisotropic consolidation stress ratios and overconsolidation ratios under both triaxial undrained and drained conditions. Limitations and potential improvement of the model regarding the fabric anisotropy at critical state have been discussed.
Nonsyndromic multiple unerupted permanent and supernumerary teeth

Failure of eruption of multiple permanent teeth is uncommon. This may be attributed to some local and systemic factors. In general, systemic factors are responsible for eruption failure of multiple teeth whereas the local causes tend to affect one or few teeth. In this article, we describe a rare case of multiple impacted permanent teeth of normal series and supernumeraries in a 14-year-old girl not associated with any syndrome.
Effect of Seed Treatment with Nanoparticles on Seed Storability of Soybean

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merill] is one of the most important protein and oilseed crop throughout the world. Soybean was introduced to India during 1880. Its oil is the largest component of the world‟s edible oils accounting for 30 per cent of the world oil production of edible oil. Currently, it ranks first in oilseed production. Despite the high yielding potential and advantages of soybean cultivation, the yield per unit area of the crop is low in India. Poor germination and low seed viability are among the serious problems limiting the production of soybean. Soybean absorbs 50 per cent of its weight in moisture to germinate compared to only 30 per cent for maize. It must be planted The present storage study was carried out at Seed Quality and Research Laboratory, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad during 20162017. In this study two different seed lots were taken first seed lot having higher germination percentage and second seed lot having lower germination percentage. Seeds were dry dressed with nanoparticles of silver and iron with different concentration and kept for storage. Seed lots revealed significant variation of the seed quality and storability due to nanoparticles treatments on soybean cv. DSb-21. High vigour seed lot recorded higher seed germination and seedling vigour index-I than the low vigour seed lot at the end of storage. The nanoparticles treatment FeNPs @500 ppm which recorded significantly higher seed germination (92.5%) and seedling vigour indexI (3127) than control at the beginning, maintained the trend till the end of 10 month of storage period. The rate of reduction in quality parameters was much higher in the low vigour seed lot. The seed treatment with nanoparticles reduced the rate of deterioration of seed in the storage.

ADHD Symptoms, Entrepreneurial Orientation (EO), and Firm Performance

Recently, scholars have started to investigate the relationship between ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) symptoms and entrepreneurship, finding that ADHD symptoms positively impact entrepreneurial intention and action. However, the performance implications of ADHD symptoms are still unknown. Using two samples of entrepreneurs from the United States and Spain, we find evidence that impulsive and hyperactive symptoms of ADHD are largely conducive to firm performance through entrepreneurial orientation (EO) while inattention symptoms are not. This suggests that the performance advantages of entrepreneurs ADHD symptoms can be derived from greater focus on innovation, proactiveness, and risk-taking. We discuss the implications of our findings for the entrepreneurship literature.
