Linking engagement and performance: The social network analysis perspective

Theories developed by Tinto and Nora identify academic performance, learning gains, and involvement in learning communities as significant facets of student engagement that, in turn, support student persistence. Collaborative learning environments, such as those employed in the Modeling Instruction introductory physics course, provide structure for student engagement by encouraging peer-to-peer interactions. Because of the inherently social nature of collaborative learning, we examine student interactions in the classroom using network analysis. We use centrality---a family of measures that quantify how connected or "central" a particular student is within the classroom network---to study student engagement longitudinally. Bootstrapped linear regression modeling shows that students' centrality predicts future academic performance over and above prior GPA for three out of four centrality measures tested. In particular, we find that closeness centrality explains 28 % more of the variance than prior GPA alone. These results confirm that student engagement in the classroom is critical to supporting academic performance. Furthermore, we find that this relationship for social interactions does not emerge until the second half of the semester, suggesting that classroom community develops over time in a meaningful way.
Graduate attributes and the professionalisation of Australian paramedics: an empirical study

The paramedic discipline within Australia has seen a remarkable change in a number of areas including education, training, identity, and scope of clinical practice, particularly over the past three decades. Therefore preparing future paramedic graduates for these expected roles and changes requires a careful and strategic alignment of graduate attributes to course curricula, especially since what constitutes these graduate attributes is still a contentious area of debate amongst practitioners. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the graduate attributes that best reflected professional practice for Australian paramedics, thus providing an opportunity to standardise curricula nationally and strengthen its claims to be recognised as a fully-fledged health care profession. By undertaking the first attempt at developing an empirically-based paramedic graduate attribute scale; this study makes an important and informed contribution to the paramedic body of knowledge, theory and practice. This thesis reports the development and validation of the Paramedic Graduate Attribute Scale (PGAS). The PGAS was completed by 872 paramedic participants from around Australia. A combination of classical-test theory (factor analysis) and item-response theory (Rasch analysis) were utilised to validate and refine the PGAS. Results from these analyses confirmed a 30-item reliable and valid scale made up of seven viable factors (Personal Behaviour and Attitudes, Patient Interaction and Welfare, Scientific Approach to Patient Care, Paramedic and Society, Commitment to Professional and Health Care Outcomes, Professional Behaviour, Interaction Skills). The PGAS provides a graduate attribute and curriculum blueprint for paramedic course accreditation, standardisation, curriculum mapping and benchmarking processes. Accompanying this standardisation will be a nationally consistent paramedic curriculum, providing assurance that graduates are meeting industry standards and community expectations. The implementation and uptake of graduate attributes has been historically patchy in the Higher Education sector, therefore, the integration of the PGAS should be based on a theoretical and curriculum framework. One such model that appears well suited to paramedic education is constructive alignment. The outcome of the graduate attribute mapping and curriculum renewal process is that it signals to other health care professions, industry partners (employers), and state and federal governments that the paramedic discipline is now confident that it will be recognised as a legitimate health care profession. The PGAS can now be utilised by the Australian paramedic discipline in its attempt to standardise and formally accredit the growing numbers of paramedic programs around Australia. It will also assist in making a meaningful contribution to the growing body of paramedic empirical knowledge.
Poly[octaaquadi-μ-phosphato-trinickel(II)]

In the title compound, [Ni3(PO4)2(H2O)8]n, which was synthesized hydrothermally, all the Ni atoms are located in slightly distorted octahedral coordination environments. Two phosphate groups and two Ni atoms share a centrosymmetric four-membered ring and an eight-membered ring such that the four-membered ring is inside the eight-membered ring. The eight-membered rings are connected with the other Ni atoms (lying on centres of symmetry) through phosphate anions, generating a one-dimensional chain structure. Adjacent chains are connected through hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.

ThyroxineandThyrotropin Assayfor Usein Neonates

To clinically evaluate a commercial thyroxine and thyrotropin assay intended for use with neonates, we studied a total of 656 term specimens, collected two days postpartum,consistingof whole capillarybloodspotted on filter paper. The thyroxine concentration (mean ± SD) for the 656 normal infants was 128 ± 23.4 tg/L. These results differ significantly from values found for blood-spot samples of cord bloodat term (100 ± 17.2.tg/L) andthose for premature infants from one to two weeks postpartum (94 ± 26.6 rg/L). No differences were seen with respect to sex or ethnic origin. For quality control, blood-spot thyroxine concentrations in whole blood from adults and in cord blood correlated significantly with the thyroxine concentration in plasma derived from the corresponding original whole-blood samples. Our recall rate was 0.76% when thyroxine screening criteria alone were considered. When thyroxine and thyrotropin (20 mU/L cut-off value) were considered together, the recall rate was 0.3%. A suitable method of routine quality control for blood-spot determinations is described and demonstratesthat these two commercial assays are acceptable for hypothyroid screening at birth.
4,4′-[Ethylenebis(nitrilomethylidyne)]dibenzonitrile

The molecule of the title Schiff base compound, C18H14N4, lies across a crystallographic inversion centre and adopts an E configuration with respect to the azomethine (C=N) bonds. The imino groups are coplanar with the aromatic rings with a maximum deviation of 0.1574 (12) Å for the N atom. Within the molecule, the planar units are parallel, but extend in opposite directions from the dimethylene bridge. In the crystal structure, pairs of intermolecular C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds link neighbouring molecules into centrosymmetric dimers with R 2 2(10) ring motifs. An interesting feature of the crystal structure is the short intermolecular C⋯C interaction with a distance of 3.3821 (13) Å, which is shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radius of a carbon atom.
10-(1,3-Benzothiazol-2-yl)-1,1,7,7-tetramethyl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H,5H,11H-pyrano[3,2-g]pyrido[3,2,1-hi]quinoline

An intramolecular S⋯O [2.813 (1) Å] contact may help to stabilize the molecular conformation. In the crystal structure, π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.480 (2) Å] link pairs of molecules.
PATTERN OF PSYCHOTROPIC PRESCRIPTION IN A TERTIARY CARE TEACHING HOSPITAL: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS

objectives: (1) To study the prescription pattern of psychotropic drugs amongst patients attending the psychiatry outpatient department (OPD) in a tertiary care hospital, Mandya, (2) to evaluate patterns and recent trends in psychotropic polypharmacy. Methods: This was a prospective, cross-sectional and observational study, done over 8 weeks, among patients attending psychiatry OPD. The most recent prescribed psychopharmacological medication of the patients were collected in a standard proforma and analyzed according to World Health Organization (WHO) prescription indicators. Descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation were used wherever appropriate. Results: A total of 405 prescriptions were evaluated. Anti-epileptics (22.9%), antidepressants (19.7%) and antipsychotics (11.0%) were the commonly advocated drug groups in more than half of prescriptions. Phenobarbitone (30.2%), escitalopram (27.9%), and risperidone (48.9%) were commonly used drugs among anti-epileptics, antidepressants, and antipsychotics, respectively. Nutraceuticals constituted 8.7% of total drugs. Percentage of drugs prescribed by generic name was 54.9%. Polypharmacy was prevalent in 2.7% of prescriptions. Percentage of drugs prescribed as fixed-dose combination was 21%. Conclusion: The WHO guidelines regarding prescription of drugs were followed consistently. The issue of prescribing by brand names need to be addressed. Polypharmacy was advocated for negligible number of subjects and the reasons were justifiable. Keywords: Prescription audit, Polypharmacy, Psychopharmacological agent.

Perfil antropométrico e clínico de escolares e sua relação com a síndrome metabólica na infância - doi: 10.5020/18061230.2012.p202

Objective: To evaluate the anthropometric and clinical profile of students and verify its association with the metabolic syndrome. Methods: The study involved 91 students, aged 7 to 8, attending public schools in Campinas-SP, Brazil. All students were submitted to an evaluation of blood pressure and anthropometrical parameters, focused on weight, height, abdominal and brachial circumferences measurements. To evaluate the incidence of metabolic syndrome among those children, they were divided into groups according to nutritional status and body mass index distribution. Results: 45 children (49.4%) were considered eutrophic, 12 were overweight (13.1%) and 34 were obese (37.3%). Comparisons between abdominal and brachial circumferences were statistically different for the eutrophic (55.5±3.5 and 18.6±1.3), overweight (62.9±4,0 and 21.4±1.7) and obese group (76.3±8.1 and 26.5±2.6). Systolic blood pressure was lower in the eutrophic group, compared to the obese one, with values of 88.2±4,0 and 93.4±7.2 mmHg, respectively. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure were correlated to abdominal circumference values in all groups. However, only systolic blood pressure showed correlation with brachial circumference in all groups. Conclusion: Given the significant correlation observed between both systolic and diastolic blood pressure values and abdominal circumference values; as well as between systolic blood pressure values and brachial circumference, the anthropometric and clinical evaluation is to be considered suitable for early detection and to control the risk of development of metabolic syndrome among the children in this study
Sclerosant foams

Summary Numerous ways of transferring detergent type liquid sclerosants into foam have been described. Out of all techniques, the three most commonly used around the world were selected. Sclerosant foams prepared with different agents and protocols were analyzed in detail, and their rheologic properties were assessed. Some of the results are presented in this review. Results: It is evident that the the material for foam production plays an important role for foam stability, and – connected to this – maybe also for efficacy and safety. Therefore, material that ensures acceptable foam quality should be used exclusively. Out of a huge number of possibilities, the material described in this study was found most suitable. This ensures minimal reduction of foam quality delivered into the vein. Foams considered instable are not clinically ineffective. They have a greater efficacy than the corresponding liquid agent. Foams considered stable seem to need lower injection volumes to have the same or better physical behaviour. Conclusion: Since higher volumes of sclerosant foams are correlated with more side effects, always the smallest effective volumes of foams of appropriate quality are justified.

Isoprophylaxis is neither homeoprophylaxis nor homeopathic immunization, but isopathic immunization unsupported by the homeopathic epistemological model: A response to Golden

Homeopathy might be employed for the prevention of epidemic diseases (homeoprophylaxis) provided remedies are selected on an individual basis in compliance with the â€˜principle of symptom-based similitudeâ€™ and according to the totality of symptoms peculiar to a given epidemic (remedy of the â€˜epidemic geniusâ€™ or â€˜genus epidemicus), as countless examples in the literature show. The use of nosodes for the prevention of epidemic diseases (isoprophylaxis), i.e., selected based on the â€˜principle of etiological identityâ€™ with full neglect of symptom-based individualization and pathogenetic trials, is not supported by the homeopathic epistemological model. As long as there are no reliable scientific evidences attesting to its efficacy and safety, â€˜isopathic immunizationâ€™ might not be indicated as a regular replacement of classical immunization, as it would mean a transgression of the bioethical principles of beneficence and non-maleficence. Although many homeopathic practitioners systematically indicate that practice, it is condemned by homeopathic institutions worldwide. In this article, I elaborate on epistemological, ethical and scientific features of these disparate approaches to prophylaxis, which I had summarily addressed in a previous review.
