Analysis of emotional intelligence for the intellectual capital growth

The study of factors of organizational intellectual capital development is based on the analysis of both rational and emotional components of internal organizational processes and external communications with partners and customers. The analysis of emotional intelligence shows a number of positive effects that should be used in planning business processes. Socio-psychological methods of interrogation and tests give unstable results, the emotional intelligence assessment needs repetition to obtain significant and valuable conclusions or requires additional methods such as interviews, as implemented in the presented study. The article shows the correlation between the type of employment and the emotional intelligence of employees. Recommendations are given on the use of the analysis of emotional intelligence for the development of organizational processes in a company and the improvement of the organization’s intellectual capital management system based on the inclusion of both cognitive-rational elements of knowledge, including formalized data and practices, in the analysis of intellectual capital, and affective and emotional elements that determine organizational components of intellectual capital and improvement of business-processes.
Evaluation of Lumbar Spine Bracing as a Postoperative Adjunct to Single-level Posterior Lumbar Spine Surgery

Background: Clinical practice in postoperative bracing after posterior single-level lumbar spine fusion (PLF) is inconsistent between providers. This study seeks to assess the effect of bracing on short-term outcomes related to safety, quality of care, and direct costs. Methods: Retrospective cohort analyses of consecutive patients undergoing single-level PLF with or without bracing at a three-hospital urban academic medical center (2013–2017) were undertaken (n = 906). Patient demographics and comorbidities were analyzed. Test of independence, Mann–Whitney–Wilcoxon test, and logistic regression were used to assess differences in length of stay (LOS), discharge disposition/need for postacute care, quality-adjusted life year (QALY), surgical site infection (SSI), hospital cost, total cost, readmission within 30 days, and emergency room (ER) visits within 30 days. Results: Among the study population, 863 patients were braced and 43 were not braced. No difference was seen between the two groups in short-term outcomes from surgery including LOS (P = 0.836), discharge disposition (P = 0.226), readmission (P = 1.000), ER visits (P = 0.281), SSI (P = 1.000), and QALY gain (P = 0.319). However, the braced group incurred a significantly higher direct hospital cost (median increase of 41.43%, P < 0.001) compared to the unbraced cohort (bracing cost excluded). There was no difference in graft type (P = 0.145) or comorbidities (P = 0.20–1.00) such as obesity (P = 1.000), smoking (P = 1.000), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (P = 1.000), hypertension (P = 0.805), coronary artery disease (P = 1.000), congestive heart failure (P = 1.000), and total number of comorbidities (P = 0.228). Conclusion: Short-term data suggest that removal of bracing from the postoperative regimen for PLF will not result in increased adverse outcomes but will reduce cost.
An Experiment Research on Landmark Learning underly human Spatial Cognition

Spatial cognition is a basic cognitive ability for human to realize and advance the world. Animal and human models have identified two dissociable systems for learning a space---environment centered-allocentric strategy and body centered-egocentric strategy. Despite the abundance of evidence have demonstrated differences between two navigation strategies, it is still unknown whether allocentric navigation and egocentric navigation are mediated by the same or different downstream information input systems. Based on a mutual "online navigation task" and "offline recognition test", the current study aims to investigate the causal nature of landmark cognitive mechanism to navigational strategy. In navigation task, participants were asked to search a goal either using an egocentric or an allocentric strategy spontaneously in two different stamazes. After that, an offline recognition test about the landmark relationship of the maze was followed. Then the visual landmark learning and recognitive landmark relationship between two strategies was compared. The result found landmark processing is specific for allocentric navigation, consistently landmark relationship is critical involved in the organization of allocentric knowledge. Based on "online learning" and "offline representation", the current study demonstrated landmark is specific for allocentric navigation. In addition, the conclusion that stronger landmark process of allocentric navigation might be applied to simulate and develop computational model in future research.
Knowledge and attitude of basic life support skills among female school teacher in Al-Madinah, Saudi Arabia

Background and Objectives: Basic life support (BLS) is the care provided by first responders in case of cardiac or respiratory arrest in order to save someone's life. This study aimed to assess the knowledge and attitude of BLS skills among female school teachers in Al-Madinah. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 302 female teachers in 24 governmental school Al-Madinah city in 2019 by using a self-administrated questionnaire. T-test and ANOVA test were used to compare mean knowledge scale across variables. Results: The majority aged 41–50 years (46%). Only 30.5% had completed cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training and 73.9% had trained more than 2 years ago. Most of them (94.7%) wanted more training in CPR. The main reason to attend CPR training was to avoid unnecessary death (48.7%). The mean knowledge scale was (5.63 ± 1.49). There was a significant difference in the knowledge score between those who had observed CPR and those who had not observed CPR (P = 0.045). Conclusion: The knowledge and skills of BLS were low among female school teachers. Teachers' attitude toward CPR training was positive.
Use of chloroplast DNA polymorphisms for the phylogenetic study of Allium subgenus Amerallium and subgenus Bromatorrhiza (Alliaceae) II

The utility of the chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) restriction mapping of 18 Allium species of the subgenera Amerallium, Melanocrommyum, Allium and Bromatorrhiza have been cladistically analysed, according to the recently proposed paraphyletic origin of the subgenera Bromatorrhiza and Amerallium. The size of the restriction fragment and the precise fragment order of A. zebdanense cpDNA were determined for 10 enzymes. The parsimony analysis confirms strongly the subdivision of the genus Allium in two main groups with different basic chromosome numbers (x = 7 and x = 8), which had been earlier proposed on the basis of morphological, karyological, anatomical and other molecular markers. Subgenus Amerallium (x = 7) itself is distinctly differentiated into two main subgroups, representing the Eurasian and the American taxa. The subgeneric status of Bromatorrhiza has to be cancelled, its members must be subordinated as sections to subgenus Amerallium (sect. Bromatorrhiza) and to one of the Eurasian subgenera with x = 8 (probably to the subgenus Allium or Rhizirideum). Die Methode der Chloroplasten-DNA (cpDNA) Restriktionskartierung wurde mit 18 Allium-Arten der Untergattungen Amerallium, Melanocrommyum, Allium und Bromatorrhiza in Hinblick auf den gegenwartig diskutierten paraphyletischen Ursprung der Untergattungen Bromatorrhiza und Amerallium analysiert. Die Grose der Restriktionsfragmente und die genaue Fragmentreihenfolge wurden fur 10 Enzyme charakterisiert. Die Unterteilung der Gattung Allium in zwei Hauptgruppen mit verschiedenen Chromosomenbasiszahlen (x = 7 und x = 8), die schon anhand morphologischer, karyologischer, anatomischer und anderer molekularer Marker vorgeschlagen wurde, wird durch die Parsimony-Analyse gestutzt. Die Untergattung Amerallium (x = 7) selbst ist in zwei klare Hauptgruppen differenziert, die die eurasischen sowie die amerikanischen Arten reprasentieren. Der Status der Untergattung Bromatorrhiza mus aufgehoben werden, deren Taxa mussen als Sektionen der Untergattung Amerallium (sect. Bromatorrhiza) und einer der eurasischen Untergattungen mit x = 8 (wahrscheinlich zur Untergattung Allium oder Rhizirideum) zugeordnet werden.
Role of digital therapeutics and the changing future of healthcare

With healthcare becoming digital, patients today are more empowered than ever before. As a result, digital health solutions have become the need of the hour to keep up with an increasing number of empowered patients participating in their own treatment decisions. Digital health encompasses various platforms and systems that apply technological solutions to enhance healthcare delivery. Digital therapeutics (DTx) is one such category of digital health solutions that provides evidence-based software-driven therapeutic interventions for the prevention and management of a medical disorder or disease. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of DTx, its functions and applications in healthcare, and associated regulatory aspects, among others.
The AFSUMB Consensus Statements and Recommendations for the Clinical Practice of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound using Sonazoid

The first edition of the guidelines for the use of ultrasound contrast agents was published in 2004, dealing with liver applications. The second edition of the guidelines in 2008 reflected changes in the available contrast agents and updated the guidelines for the liver, as well as implementing some nonliver applications. The third edition of the contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) guidelines was the joint World Federation for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology-European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (WFUMB-EFSUMB) venture in conjunction with other regional US societies such as Asian Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology, resulting in a simultaneous duplicate on liver CEUS in the official journals of both WFUMB and EFSUMB in 2013. However, no guidelines were described mainly for Sonazoid due to limited clinical experience only in Japan and Korea. The new proposed consensus statements and recommendations provide general advice on the use of Sonazoid and are intended to create standard protocols for the use and administration of Sonazoid in hepatic and pancreatobiliary applications in Asian patients and to improve patient management.
Complex Network and Systemic Risk Analysis of Financial systems Based on Computational Experiment Method

We construct an artificial financial system based on the computational experimental method. After that, the complex network morphological features of the financial system and its influence on the systemic risk are both analyzed by leading a simulation process. The simulation results indicate that the artificial financial system displays a scale-free property which exists in real-world financial systems. In addition, the larger network scale and network heterogeneity can effectively resist the systemic risk in terms of network structures.
Histopathological Pattern and Outcome of Posterior Fossa Tumors in Children and Adults – A 20-Year Experience

Context: The postoperative quality and span of life in posterior fossa tumors (PFTs) is complicated by the residual disease, progression, recurrence, disabilities, and mortality. Aims: The aim of this study is to analyze the link between histopathological type of tumor and outcome in an ethnic Himalayan population of India. Settings and Design: The histopathological records of 410 out of 589 patients were compared with their clinical outcome up to the 1st postoperative year in a single center which amounts to regional epidemiological value of PFTs. Materials and Methods: In this observational study, retrospectively postoperative records of 589 PFTs from November 1990 to December 2010 (20 years) were retrieved, scrutinized, and observed. The postoperative records of 410 patients with proved histopathological examination results were included. Statistical Analysis Used: The statistical law of variance was applied wherever necessary. Results: About 63.2% of 410 operated PTFs were males while females predominated in meningiomas and pineoblastomas. About 31.7% of PFTs were children (below 18 years.). About 54.1% of the cases were histologically malignant. The residual tumors comprised 40.2%, and symptoms of disease progression occurred in 10.9%. The tumor recurrence occurred in 14.3% while 6.0% of the patients developed severe disability. The overall mortality was 11.4% up to the 1st postoperative year, with 18.9% in malignant patients. The first 1-year event-free survival (EFS) for all the patients was 66.0%. While the patients with malignancies had the first 1-year EFS of 47.7%, the histologically benign group had 87.7%. Conclusion: The first 1-year postoperative EFS of histologically benign and some malignant PFTs both in children and adults such as pilocytic astrocytomas, ependymomas, and pineoblastomas was much better (87.7%) than other malignant PTFs.
THE USE OF ELECTROPHORESIS IN TESTING FOR HIGH DIASTATIC POWER IN BARLEY

In crosses between barley cultivars differing in both electrophoretic pattern and diastatic power, these two characters were found to be closely related at any given level of grain nitrogen, when selected F3 and F4 lines were tested. Electrophoresis, in conjunction with the estimation of grain nitrogen content, can be used to predict diastatic power and has the advantage over other tests in being unaffected by the environment in which the plants were grown. Identification in early generations allows the character to be fixed preventing the loss of plants with high diastatic power during subsequent selection for other characters.
PROBING BEHAVIOR OF THE GREENBUG (SCHIZAPHIS GRAMINUM, BIOTYPE C) ON RESISTANT AND SUSCEPTIBLE VARIETIES OF SORGHUM

The probing behavior of biotype C of the greenbug, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani) on susceptible and resistant lines of sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench. , was electronically monitored. Waveforms corresponding to salivation, phloem ingestion and non‐phloem ingestion are described. The results of a parallel study revealed that the rate of population growth of S. graminum was significantly greater on susceptible lines of sorghum [i.e., NC + 70X. SC423 (Purple). SC423 (Tan)] than on resistant lines (i.e., TAM 2567, IS 809). Aphids probing the resistant lines of sorghum showed a significantly reduced imbibition of phloem sap compared with those aphids which fed on susceptible varieties. Also, increased numbers of separate probes and increased duration of non‐probing were associated with greenbugs feeding on resistant lines. Greenbugs monitored on the nonhost plant, rice, exhibited non‐phloem ingestion, but not phloem ingestion.
Prevalence of needlestick injuries among health-care workers in iranian hospitals: An updated systematic review and meta-analysis

Background: Needlestick and sharp injuries have been identified as the most dangerous factor among health-care workers. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 385,000 health-care workers experience needlestick each year. Methods: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of needlestick injuries (NSIs) in Iranian health-care workers. In this review and meta-analysis, the local and international databases such as Scopus, Medline, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scientific Information Database (SID), and Magiran were searched using keywords including “prevalence” OR “needle” OR “needle stick” OR “Sharp injury” OR “Iranian personnel's” OR “Iranian health care workers” OR “Iranian hospitals” OR “Iran. ” The original researches that determined the prevalence of NSIs among Iranian health-care workers and published from January 2005 to June 2019 were included in the current study. The pooled prevalence of NSIs was determined using a random-effects model with a 95% confidence interval. All analyses were performed using STATA version 11 (Stata Corporation, College Station, TX, USA). P < 0.05 was considered as a significant level. Results: The overall prevalence of NSIs among Iranian health-care personnel was about 50.8 (46.3–55.2). Furthermore, this prevalence in educational, noneducational, both noneducational and educational, and military centers was about 51.1 (46.5–57.7), 40.4. 1 (34.2–46.6), 61.0 (32.1–89.9), and 41.5 (23.0–60.0), respectively. The prevalence of NSIs among the nurses was 51.1 (45.4–56.8), which was more than other groups. Conclusions: The prevalence of NSIs in Iranian hospitals was high. Since most of the injuries are caused by nurses, more intervention programs should be designed for nurses in these wards.
Radiologic–Histopathologic Correlation of Adult Spinal Tumors: A Retrospective Study

Aim: Preoperatively performed magnetic resonance images (MRIs) are essential before treating spinal tumors surgically. This study aims to investigate the compatibility of MRI preliminary diagnosis and proven histopathologic diagnosis of consecutively operated 96 spinal tumors. Material and Methods: Medical records were retrospectively reviewed for all spinal tumors operated at our institute during a period of 6 years. One hundred and ten spinal tumors were detected. Fourteen tumors were excluded because they were not met our study criteria. Results: Ninety-six cases of spinal tumors were detected in 46 female and 50 male patients. The mean age was 49.3 ± 22.7 years. The most common symptom was radicular pain (88.6%). Histopathologic diagnoses were metastasis (n = 26), meningioma (n = 16), schwannoma (n = 15), ependymoma (n = 9), astrocytoma (n = 6), chronic nonspecific granulomatous infection (n = 4), lymphoma (n = 3), lipoma (n = 3), epidural tuberculosis abscess (Pott's disease) (n = 3), and other pathologies in 11 cases. Cervical spine was the less spinal region affected with metastases (P < 0.05). Thoracic spine was the most affected spinal region from meningioma (P < 0.05). Preoperatively, preliminary diagnosis on MRIs was proven with histopathologic examinations in 22 metastasis, 14 meningioma, 11 schwannoma, and all epidermoid cyst and lipoma cases. Despite the fact that MRI cannot diagnose all cases of spinal tumors, MRIs had a high accurate rate to diagnose the most common spinal neoplasms (69.8%). Conclusions: Metastases rarely occurred in cervical spine, whereas meningiomas were most likely to occur in thoracic spine. MRIs can help diagnose metastases and spinal benign lesions, whereas they failed to distinguish astrocytomas and lymphomas. Further prospective studies with large size are needed to support our results.
Prevalence of work-related violence among nurses working in Kashan Shahid Beheshti Hospital in 2018

Background and Objectives: Aggressive behaviors against medical personnel have been reported as a common problem that occurs in many ways and associated with many complications. The aim of this study was to describe the prevalence and work-related factors of workplace violent incidents against nurses in hospital environment. Materials and Methods: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted on 161 nursing professionals working at Shahid Beheshti Hospital in Kashan. Data were collected using the Persian version of the standard questionnaire “Workplace violence in the health sector. ” Descriptive analyses were conducted to examine the relationship of individual and work variables with the incidence of aggression. Results: Of the participants, 67% reported having been experienced at least one type of aggression within the past 12 months. The 1-year prevalence of verbal aggression (87%) was the highest, followed by physical aggression (31.2%). Nurses reported being pushed (13.6%) and beating (12.4%) as common physical aggression. Bullying (34.7%) and vilification (25.4%) were reported the most frequent verbal abuse. Perpetrators were mainly patients' family (61.2%) and patients (30.2%). Married nurses were more likely exposed to physical and verbal violence compared to single nurses (P = 0.016). The majority of nurses reported uselessness (62.8%) and unimportance (27.3%) of declaring violent events as the main reason for avoiding disclosure. Conclusion: The frequency of aggression, particularly verbal abuse is significantly high in nursing profession. The results suggest the need for the development of appropriate violent reporting and prevention systems in the hospital environment.
Antipathella subpinnata (Antipatharia, Myriopathidae) in Italian seas

The distribution of Antipathella subpinnata in Italian seas is herein given and discussed. A. subpinnata is a large, white, branched antipatharian with an Atlanto‐Mediterranean distribution. It is probably the most commonly observed black coral in this basin and it is possible to find large populations of this species at diving depths. Personal records of the occurrence of the species in the Strait of Messina, together with a wide census involving diving centres along all the Italian coasts, have been used to create a distribution data set. A description of the species, including in vivo measurements of the polyps, is given. Information concerning the habitat, the population density, the substrate, the epibionts and the environmental conditions of the sites where the species was found are also included. This study confirms the importance of A. subpinnata as a common component of the lower fringe of the circalittoral twilight environment, below 50 m depth, in localities where hard substrata are available.

Induced spawning and reproductive variables of the catfish Lophiosilurus alexandri Steindachner, 1876 (Siluriformes: Pseudopimelodidae)

Lophiosilurus alexandri is an endemic fish from the Sao Francisco River basin, Brazil. The aim of this study was to induce L. alexandri to spawn and to obtain data on several reproductive variables for this species. For induced spawning, adults were submitted to Cyprinus carpio pituitary homogenate (CPH). Nine of the 12 females (75%) responded positively to the treatment. The stripping of oocytes was performed 8.4 h after the second dose of CPH with the water temperature maintained at 26oC. The number of stripped oocytes per gram of ova was 74 ± 5 oocytes g-1, and the mean oocyte diameter was 3.1 ± 0.2 and 3.6 ± 0.2 mm, before and after hydration, respectively. The oocytes were opaque, yellowish, demersal, highly adhesive, and covered by a gelatinous coat. The total fecundity was 4,534 ± 671 oocytes, and the fertilization rate was 59%. The initial and final fertilities were 2,631 ± 740 and 1,542 ± 416 embryos, respectively. Larval hatching occurred up to 56 h after fertilization, and the larvae had a total length of 8.4 ± 0.1 mm. This work provides important biological information for L. alexandri that can be used for management and conservation of this species.
