Elements of a Positive Early-Learning Professional Team in Full-Day Kindergarten Program

This study investigated the components of successful early-learning team in the full-day kindergarten classroom. Two teams, each consisting of a kindergarten teacher and an early childhood educator, who have worked together for at least one year in the full day kindergarten program in Ontario, provided strategies and insight on how to work collaboratively in a positive manner. Through interviews with the teams, three key components of a collaborative team were constructed as follows: one; understanding their roles and responsibilities in the classroom. Two; respecting each other’s roles and having a professional attitude and thirdly, sharing a common vision for the students and the program. All these components are essential to the collaborative team and have a positive affect in the classroom.
Fan Chart Approach to Debt Sustainability in Pakistan

Pakistan’s economy has experienced relatively high growth of above 4.5 percent during FY2014-18. Meanwhile external liabilities and domestic debt have increased by almost 50 percent over the same period. This substantial increase in the external and domestic debt is a major issue for policymakers concerned about debt sustainability in Pakistan. With the objective of analyzing debt sustainability in Pakistan, this study applies a probabilistic approach to project the debt path from FY2019 to FY2025. In this approach, projections of the primary balance are derived from the estimated fiscal reaction function while the density forecast of external debt is derived from various statistical and structural models. The forecasts of the primary balance and the external debt along with the shocks of real GDP growth, real exchange rate and real interest are incorporated in the debt accumulation identity. This procedure provides a fan chart of the total debt-to-GDP ratio, which represents the appropriate uncertainty associated with the projections. The key finding of the paper is that external debt is reasonably sustained; however, the situation of the total debt is alarming. External debt may witness a declining trajectory in FY2019-20 and then remain stable within the range of 20-30 percent of GDP. However, the total debt-to-GDP ratio is rising throughout the projection period, which starts from around 100 to 175 percent of GDP in FY2020 and FY2025 and is higher than any sustainable threshold level. Therefore, policy makers need to contain fiscal deficits by domestic resource mobilization and the adoption of austerity in spending on a priority basis.
Transformasi Pendidikan Tinggi di Era Disrupsi (Dampak dan Konsekuensi Inovasi)

Perubahan dampak disrupsi ini sudah merambah ke semua aspek kehidupan termasuk dalam bidang pendidikan tinggi.Akibat pengaruh era disrupsi, anak-anak muda Indonesia ditengarai telah kehilangan identitas.Sementara itu menunjukkan bahwa posisi bangsa ini makin tertinggal dari bangsa-bangsa lain dalam kompetisi global terutama dalam hal pendidikan.Oleh karena itu perguruan tinggi, sebagai salah satu lembaga pendidikan, membutuhkan transformasi untuk mendukung mahasiswanya dalam pembentukan identitas.Perguruan tinggi diharapkan mampu mencari jalan keluar dan bersama-sama masyarakat menggalang upaya untuk menyelesaikan persoalan bangsa.Disamping itu juga diharapkan perguruan tinggi dapat meningkatkan mutu akademiknya ditengah keterbatasan sumber daya yang ada.Pendidikan tinggi diharapkan mampu menjadi ujung tombak terhadap perubahan bangsa sebenarnya sudah berlangsung sejak lama.Perguruan tinggi memerlukan otonomi dan independensi untuk dapat memulihkan perannya dan terlibat secara langsung sebagai agent of change dalam perubahan masyarakat. Memposisikan sebuah perguruan tinggi pada barisan perguruan tinggi-perguruan tinggi terbaik memerlukan perubahan yang fundamental sehingga mampu bersaing.Selanjutnya dikatakan bahwa tantangannya sebagai institusi, sebagai komunitas yang kompleks, adalah belajar bagaimana bekerjasama untuk menyediakan lingkungan dimana perubahan seperti itu tidak dianggap sebagai ancaman, tetapi sebagai peluang yang menantang dan menyenangkan untuk terlibat dalam aktivitas utama di universitas, yaitu belajar.Sebuah perguruan tinggi harus memiliki strategiyang unggul.Untuk mewujudkannya perlu dilakukan transformasi kelembagaan yang lebih kompleks dari sekadar pengembangan organisasi.Perguruan tinggi merupakan lembaga yang dibangun dengan komunitas akademik yang bersifat kolegial, dan menjunjung tinggi academic value untuk mencerdaskan bangsa. Ini yang membedakannya dengan organisasi lain. Melakukan perubahan fundamental untuk dapat menghasilkan nilai-nilai akademik, sosial, dan ekonomi merupakan kata kunci dalam transformasi pendidikan di perguruan tinggi. Salah satu contoh konsekuensi inovasi dalam pendidikan adalah pemanfaatan sarana teknokogi informasi dalam bidang pendidikan.Beberapa perguruan tinggi yang berdomisili didaerah terpencil juga belum mampu memanfaatkan program pendidikan jarak jauh padahal saat ini sudah menjadi sebuah kebutuhan. Adanya program SPADA yang ditawarkan pemerintah, sistem hybrid learning untuk mahasiswa PPG juga mengalami kendala.

Evaluation of Umbilical Cord Coiling Index in late second trimester and its association with Perinatal Outcome

Background: Umbilical cord plays a major role for foetal persistence during the intrauterine period. Reports had shown that abnormal umbilical cord coiling in the form of hypo or hypercoiling are associated with abnormal foetal outcome in the form of chromosomal disorders, intra-uterine deaths, growth retardation, meconium stained liquor, abnormal foetal heart rate and chorioamnionitis. Aim: To evaluate the association between umbilical cord coiling index in the 2nd trimester and the perinatal outcome among the registered antenatal mothers. Methodology: A prospective longitudinal study was conducted at the Institute of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Egmore Chennai for a period of one year between June 2012 to May 2013. A total of 385 women were recruited for the study. A semi-structured questionnaire was used for collecting the demographic details. The coiling index was measured using 3.5 MHz transabdominal transducer. Longitudinal images of the umbilical cord were taken, part of the cord which was freely floating in the amniotic fluid was taken, and the coiling index was calculated. Coiling index of less than the 10th percentile was considered as hypocoiled and above 90th percentile was considered as hypercoiled. Results: The increase in the age of the mothers had shown a strong association in the development of abnormal umbilical coiling and the majority of the mothers with hypocoiled umbilical cord had delivered in less than 37 weeks of gestational age. The incidence of pregnancy induced hypertension and gestational diabetes mellitus had shown a statistically strong association with hypocoiled umbilical cord (p
Drought-induced mortality: stem diameter variation reveals a point of no return in lavender species

In the context of climate changes, water availability is expected to severely decline. Consequently, there is a need to predict mortality of woody species, especially to find a physiological threshold to drought-induced mortality. Lavender species (Lavandula angustifolia and Lavandula x intermedia) which are important crops of the Mediterranean region are affected by a decline, notably caused by successive intense drought events. Lavender response to extreme drought events was monitored using continuous stem diameter measurements. Water potential, stomatal conductance, loss of xylem hydraulic conductivity and electrolyte leakage were also measured during desiccation, and recovery was evaluated after rewatering. Two parameters computed from stem diameter variations were related to stress intensity and resilience to stress: PLD (Percentage Loss of Diameter) and stem PLRC (Percentage Loss of Rehydration Capacity of the stem), respectively. We showed that plants did not recover when the PLD reached its maximal value (PLDmax) which was 21.27 ± 0.57% in both lavender species and whatever the growing conditions. This point of no return was associated with a high level of cell lysis evaluated by electrolyte leakage, and occurred far after the xylem hydraulic failure. We discussed the relevance of PLDmax as a threshold for drought-induced mortality and its physiological significance, in relation to the mortality mechanisms. One-sentence summary Under extreme drought, lavender death occurs when the water storage of the elastic compartment of the stem is exhausted.
Perceptions of the Language and Meaning of Poverty in Brunei Darussalam

Despite the proliferation of poverty studies, poverty in Brunei Darussalam (hereafter, Brunei) is under-researched. What poverty means in Brunei is, therefore, little understood, and there is a local belief that poverty in the country is unique and relative. Moreover, the terms ‘poverty’ (kemiskinan) and ‘poor’ (miskin) are somewhat sensitive in Brunei, but the reason(s) for this sentiment and preferred terms are not known. This study examines the language and meaning of poverty in Brunei. It also sheds light on the local belief about poverty within the country. The study used an exploratory research methodology and data were collected from poor and non-poor households and key informants. Results show that Bruneians use different terms to refer to poverty or poor people, but preferred terms are ‘living in need’, ‘difficult life’ and ‘needy people’. Bruneians avoid the terms ‘poverty’ and ‘poor’ because they can erode one’s self-confidence or self-esteem. Poverty in Brunei is construed in different ways, but it is mostly perceived as relative, and its nature is not unique.
12-year adherence to inhaled corticosteroids in adult-onset asthma

Adherence to inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) has been suggested to be poor but long-term follow-ups are lacking. The objective of the present study was to assess adherence to ICS treatment in patients with adult-onset asthma during 12-year follow-up. A total of 181 patients with clinically confirmed, new-onset adult asthma were followed for 12 years as part of the Seinäjoki Adult Asthma Study. Adherence to ICS was assessed individually as the percentage of true dispensed ICS in micrograms per true prescribed daily ICS in micrograms over 12 years. Mean 12-year adherence to ICS was 69% (mean±sd dispensed 2.5±1.8 g and prescribed 3.6±1.5 g budesonide equivalent per patient for 12 years), annual adherence varying between 81% (year 1) and 67% (year 12). Patients with good 12-year adherence (≥80%) used oral corticosteroids more often, and had add-on drugs in use and asthma-related visits to healthcare more often. In addition, they showed less reversibility in forced expiratory volume in 1 s and had higher peripheral blood neutrophil counts. However, lung function decline was steeper in patients with poorer adherence (<80%) and this association remained in multiple linear regression analysis. No difference was found in symptom scores, blood eosinophil counts, exhaled nitric oxide or immunoglobulin E between the patients with different levels of adherence. In patients with adult-onset asthma, adherence to ICS was moderate. Poorer adherence (<80%) to ICS was associated with more rapid decline in lung function but was not associated to symptoms or markers of inflammatory endotypes. Mean long-term adherence to ICS treatment is 69% in patients with confirmed adult-onset asthma. While good ICS adherence (≥80%) is associated with features of more severe asthma, poorer adherence (<80%) predicts more rapid lung function decline. http://bit.ly/37mvh74
Social Information Processing Deficits, Intimate Partner Violence, and Coercive Control in Dating Couples

The current study investigated how social information processing (SIP) deficits are related to intimate partner violence (IPV) and coercive control among heterosexual dating couples. I assessed four steps of Crick and Dodge’s (1994) six-step SIP model, namely: attitudes and attributions, goal setting, coping response generation, and coping response selection. I used Dutton and Goodman’s (2006) theorized model of coercive control, which included assessing demands, surveillance, threats, and victims’ responses to demands. I hypothesized that (a) SIP deficits would be interrelated; (b) participants responding in timed conditions would show more SIP deficits, given theory and research (e.g., Eckhardt et al., 2012) suggesting that implicit attitudes are more predictive of aggression than explicit attitudes; (c) and individuals with more SIP deficits would report perpetrating and experiencing more IPV and coercive control. Furthermore, exploratory questions investigated gender effects, partner effects, and Actor X Partner effects. Couples (N = 109) participated in a lab study during which they completed online measures of demographics, SIP deficits, IPV perpetration and victimization, coercive control victimization and perpetration, and social desirability. Hierarchical regressions were used to test hypothesis 1, which found that most SIP deficits were predictive of each other, such that negative attributions were found to positively predict aggressive goals; negative attributions and aggressive goals each positively predicted response generation competency; and negative attributions and generation competency each positively predicted response selection competency. To test hypothesis 2, I conducted multilevel models and found that there were no differences in SIP deficits between those responding with unlimited time and those who responded with a time pressure. Finally, I conducted
Thermal habitat of Brook Trout in lakes of different size

We assessed thermal habitat use of lake-dwelling Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) populations in 39 lakes of varying size with short-set duration, stratified-random netting surveys in Algonquin Park, Ontario, Canada. Temperature at capture depth was determined from vertical temperature profiles and used as a proxy of Brook Trout temperature selection. Almost all Brook Trout observations fit within their aerobic scope, indicating that our approach adequately captured the distribution of body temperature for this species. However, we found a bimodal distribution of temperatures at capture depth. Most fish occupied a cold mode at capture, but a smaller subset of fish was captured in a warm-temperature mode that occurred in all lake-size categories, indicating Brook Trout that appeared to be actively moving into the warm-temperature mode. Adult Brook Trout occupied colder thermal habitats, on average, than published literature estimates and were found in significantly-colder temperatures than subadult Brook Trout within the same lake. Variation in thermal habitat use increased as lake size decreased. For lakes <100 ha, temperatures at capture depth were highly variable and ranged from 7.2 to 17.7°C. We report weighted means and distributions of thermal habitat boundaries because these boundaries may aid future efforts to project the influence of climate change on Brook Trout. Dissolved oxygen at capture depth suggested that fish occupy either an upper mode >5 ppm or a lower mode, including individuals captured at depths where dissolved oxygen is <2 ppm.
Prevalence of depression and associated risk factors among the elderly in rural field practice areas of a tertiary care institution in Katihar, Bihar

Background: Despite depression is one of the most common emerging psychiatric morbidity among elderly now days, yet the depressive symptoms are not diagnosed appropriately. The objective of the study was to estimate the prevalence of depression and identify associated risk factors in the elderly population. Methods: A community based cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted from January 2013 to December 2013 in villages under field practice area of Katihar Medical College in the state of Bihar, India. Multistage sampling technique was employed, and a total 450 elderly persons were interviewed after obtaining written informed consent. Subjects with score >20 on the mini-mental state examination, were assessed for depression using the Short Form Geriatric Depression Scale. Study variables included bio-social parameters such as age, gender, literacy status, occupation, socioeconomic status, financial dependency and marital status. Results: The prevalence of depression in the study population was 39.6%. Mild depression was present in one-fourth (24.4%) of the study population followed by moderate depression (11.55%). Even 3.7% of the elderly were severely depressed. It was significantly higher in females (p = 0.00), those who were single (p = 0.00), those who belonged to upper socioeconomic strata (0.00) and were financially dependent on others. Conclusions: The study revealed the need for development of community based comprehensive strategy for early diagnosis and prompt treatment of depression among elderly as well as to promote mental health.
Atom probe tomography of space‐weathered lunar ilmenite grain surfaces

The surfaces of airless bodies, such as the Moon and asteroids, are subject to space weathering, which alters the mineralogy of the upper tens of nanometers of grain surfaces. Atom probe tomography (APT) has the appropriate 3‐D spatial resolution and analytical sensitivity to investigate such features at the nanometer scale. Here, we demonstrate that APT can be successfully used to characterize the composition and texture of space weathering products in ilmenite from Apollo 17 sample 71501 at near‐atomic resolution. Two of the studied nanotips sampled the top surface of the space‐weathered grain, while another nanotip sampled the ilmenite at about 50 nm below the surface. These nanotips contain small nanophase Fe particles (~3 to 10 nm diameter), with these particles becoming less frequent with depth. One of the nanotips contains a sequence of space weathering products, compositional zoning, and a void space (~15 nm in diameter) which we interpret as a vesicle generated by solar wind irradiation. No noble gases were detected in this vesicle, although there is evidence for 4He elsewhere in the nanotip. This lunar soil grain exhibits the same space weathering features that have been well documented in transmission electron microscope studies of lunar and Itokawa asteroidal regolith grains.
Genome-wide association and functional analyses identify CASC20 and KIF26B as target loci in heterotopic ossification

Heterotopic ossification (HO) is bone formation that occurs after trauma within tissues that do not normally have the property of ossification, resulting in pain and disability. The genetic architecture of HO remains unclear. In the first genome-wide association studies of this disease, we identify the human-only long non-coding RNA-encoding gene CASC20 as a robust, replicating susceptibility locus for HO and KIF26B as a potential severity locus. We find that both CASC20 and KIF26B are expressed in human bone. Both CASC20 and KIF26B expression is upregulated upon BMP2 induced osteogenic differentiation in primary human mesenchymal stem cells, followed by RUNX2 and OSTERIX upregulation and mineralised nodule formation. A CRISPR-Cas9 mediated knockout of Kif26b inhibits BMP2-induced Runx2, Sp7/Osterix, Col1A1, Alp, and Bglap/Osteocalcin expression in a murine myocyte model of osteogenic trans-differentiation, and prevents mineralised nodule formation. These studies provide the first insights into the heritable biology of common, complex HO.
AdaX: Adaptive Gradient Descent with Exponential Long Term Memory

Although adaptive optimization algorithms such as Adam show fast convergence in many machine learning tasks, this paper identifies a problem of Adam by analyzing its performance in a simple non-convex synthetic problem, showing that Adam's fast convergence would possibly lead the algorithm to local minimums. To address this problem, we improve Adam by proposing a novel adaptive gradient descent algorithm named AdaX. Unlike Adam that ignores the past gradients, AdaX exponentially accumulates the long-term gradient information in the past during training, to adaptively tune the learning rate. We thoroughly prove the convergence of AdaX in both the convex and non-convex settings. Extensive experiments show that AdaX outperforms Adam in various tasks of computer vision and natural language processing and can catch up with Stochastic Gradient Descent.
Immunostaining of Bcl-2 and HER2/neu in urinary bladder carcinoma

Background Bladder cancer is one of the most common malignancies and a major cause of cancer morbidity and mortality. Bcl-2 family, a group of closely related proteins, plays a major regulatory role in apoptosis. The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2/neu (HER2/neu) gene is located on the chromosomal region 17q12. It encodes a transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the EGF/erbB growth factor receptor family. Aim The aim of the present study was to determine the significance of bcl-2 and HER2/neu expression in patients with urinary bladder carcinomas in correlation with the histopathological parameters. Materials and methods Forty-five fixed, paraffin-embedded paired tissue sections from bladder carcinomas were studied for the expression of both Bcl-2 and HER2/neu by using immunohistochemistry. Results There was a significant correlation between Bcl-2 immunoreactivity and low-grade tumor; Bcl-2 also significantly associated with early tumor stages. In addition, there were statistically significant relationships between pathological grade, tumor stage, and HER2/neu. Conclusion Expression of Bcl-2 in the bladder carcinoma seems to be associated with a less aggressive phenotype and does not play an important role in tumour progression. These findings support the role of HER2/neu in the carcinogenesis of urinary bladder carcinoma regarding behavior and aggressiveness, and thus HER2/neu could be considered as a poor prognostic parameter in urinary bladder carcinoma.
