A New Theoretical Framework: New Developmentalism

Abstract New Developmentalism is a theoretical framework being defined since the early 2000s searching to understand why most middle-income countries are falling behind the East Asian ones. It is a political economy and a development macroeconomics that originates from development economics and Post-Keynesian Macroeconomics. It argues that fast growth and catching up have been associated to developmentalism, not to economic liberalism. It defines the developmental state as the one that not only is engaged in industrial policy but also manages actively the five macroeconomic prices–mainly the interest and the exchange rate to keep competitive economically the companies that are technically efficient. New developmentalism is critical of fiscal indiscipline, while defends countercyclical fiscal policy, and is strongly critical of current account, arguing that growth is made at home. It has a new model of the Dutch disease from which is possible to deduce the means to neutralize it and achieve economic competitiveness.
Validation of the Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy for Greek children: Understanding assessment in response to culture and pedagogy

Physical literacy (PL) is recognized as a channel for promoting holistic learning experiences within physical education (PE). Compared to conceptual advancements made in regard to its development, PL assessment lacks empirical evidence. The purpose of this study was to culturally adapt the Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy – 2 (CAPL-2) and assess its construct validity in Greek children aged 8–12 years. Participants were 576 children (boys = 268, girls = 308; mean age = 10.22 years, standard deviation = 1.27), from Greek geographical locations. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) compared the present sample data to a suggested theoretical model. Analysis of variance models and frequency tabulations were used to examine age and gender associations with CAPL-2 scores. CFA results established a good fit for the data and supported a model with four interrelated domains (χ2(67) = 122.751, p < 0.01; root mean square error of approximation = 0.038; comparative fit index = 0.906; and Tucker–Lewis index = 0.873). Boys’ and older children’s physical competence was higher. Girls and older children scored lower in daily physical activity (PA) behaviour. Knowledge scores depicted misunderstandings in participants’ answers, which can be attributed to enacted Greek PE practices. Motivation was high across age groups and both genders, demonstrating that PA participation is prioritized for Greek children. CAPL-2 interpretive category scores were associated with age and gender, indicating the need for further research concerning their cultural adjustment. The CAPL-2 can be used as a valid and comprehensive instrument for charting Greek children’s PL progress and making judgements in relation to situationally grounded PE perspectives.
Comparative evaluation of fissurectomy versus lateral internal sphincterotomy in the treatment of chronic anal fissure

Anal fissure is a common anorectal condition that affecting all age groups, but it is seen in young and healthy adults with equal incidence across both the sexes. An anal fissure characteristically presents with pain (as the area is supplied by highly sensitive spinal nerves), bright red bleeding per rectum, mucous discharge and constipation and is usually placed posteriorly. During defecation, the hard fecal mass mainly presses on the posterior anal tissue in which event the overlying epithelium is greatly stretched and being relatively unsupported by muscle is placed at a vulnerable position leading to tear in anal mucosa. Initially, high fibre diet and stool softeners were used as part of management of anal fissure till Eisenhammer described internal sphincterotomy by dividing the sphincter in posterior midline. In the late 1980’s fissurectomy was often used with sphincterotomy for the treatment of chronic anal fissure. Over the years various non-surgical therapies such as 2% topical diltiazem, 0.2% glyceryl trinitrate, isosorbide dinitrate, alpha-adrenoreceptors, betaadrenoreceptors and botulinum toxin have been developed for the management of chronic anal fissure. These agents are responsible for relaxation of the internal anal sphincter and focus mainly on treating the cycles of pain, spasm and ischemia. No single medical therapy has consistently proven superior to others. A common disadvantage in conventional medical treatment is the non-permanent effect of sphincter relaxation, resulting in ABSTRACT
The accuracy of 15 – 25 years age estimation using panoramic radiograph with thevissen method in Indonesia

Age estimation is important for individual identification. Root development of third molars occurs at age 15-25 years. This study was conducted to determine the accuracy of age estimation using the Thevissen method in Indonesia. The Thevissen method was applied to 100 panoramic radiographs of both male and female subjects. Reliability was tested by the Dahlberg formula and Cohen’s Kappa test, and the significance measurement was tested by the paired t-test and the Wilcoxon test. The deviation of estimated age was then calculated. The deviation of age estimation was ±3.050 years and ±2.067 for male and female subjects, respectively. The deviation of age estimation of female subjects was less than male subject. Age estimation with the Thevissen method is preferred for age 15-22 years.
Brief Communication Late-onset psychogenic nonepileptic seizures

Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) are common, but have not been well studied in older patients. We retrospectively reviewed patients with PNES who were 60 years of age and above at the time of ‘‘seizure’’ onset. Over a 27-month period, nine (9.6%) of 94 patients diagnosed with PNES had onset at age 60 or above. None had evidence for coexisting epilepsy. Eight were women. Characteristics of the group were comparable to younger patients with PNES. We conclude that PNES should be considered as a diagnostic possibility in older patients.
Analysis of complete vibration bandgaps in a new periodic lattice model using the differential quadrature method

In this study, a new periodic lattice model with special vibration-absorbing properties is introduced. This periodic structure consists of the connected beam elements with circular cross-sections. Four models with different sets of cross-sectional radii are considered for this periodic lattice. The theoretical equations of longitudinal, torsional, and transverse vibrations of beams are solved using the combination of generalized differential quadrature and generalized differential quadrature rule methods to calculate the first three complete bandgaps. Investigating the effects of geometrical parameters on the bandgaps shows that all bands are close to each other for specific values of the cross-sectional radii. Having close bandgaps means that this periodic structure has a relatively wide bandgap in total. Furthermore, this wide band can move to low-frequency ranges by changing the lattice thickness. Absorbing both in-plane and out-of-plane vibrations over a wide bandgap at low-frequency ranges makes this periodic lattice a good vibration absorber. Verification of the analytical method using ANSYS software shows that the combination of generalized differential quadrature and generalized differential quadrature rule methods can be used for vibration analysis of two- or three-dimensional structures such as frames and trusses with high accuracy.
Chorological notes of the non-native flora of the province of Tarragona (Catalonia, Spain)

Recent field work in the province of Tarragona (NE Spain, Catalonia) yielded several new records of non-native vascular plants. Cenchrus orientalis, Manihot grahamii, Melica chilensis and Panicum capillare subsp. hillmanii are probably reported for the first time from Spain, while Aloe ferox, Canna ×generalis, Cenchrus setaceus, Convolvulus farinosus, Ficus rubiginosa, Jarava plumosa, Koelreuteria paniculata, Lycianthes rantonnetii, Nassella tenuissima, Paraserianthes lophantha, Plumbago auriculata, Podranea ricasoliana, Proboscidea louisianica, Sedum palmeri, Solanum bonariense, Tipuana tipu, Tradescantia pallida and Vitis ×ruggerii are reported for the first time from the province of Tarragona. Several of these are potential or genuine invasive species and/or agricultural weeds. Miscellaneous additional records are presented for some further alien taxa with only few earlier records in the study area.
Assessment thresholds for academic staff: constructive alignment and differentiation of standards

Abstract This qualitative study utilized episodic narrative interviews to investigate assessment thresholds involved in the development of assessment literacy. The goal of the study was to inform efforts toward quality improvements in higher education. Thirty-five academic staff from universities in Australia, Canada and Sweden shared stories of significant changes they made to their assessment practice. Thematic analysis found troublesome aspects to include instructor expectations, lack of consistency, differentiation of performance, student expectations, time constraints/workload, logistical/technological constraints and assessment policy. A belief in meaningful learning, embracing constraints and the desire to meet the needs of students, added to other enablers for assessment change, such as resources, support and strategic use of technology. Findings suggested assessment thresholds of constructive alignment and differentiation of standards. Reflection, collaboration and professional development were found to support the integration of assessment knowledge and build conceptual understanding of assessment thresholds. Authors recommend that higher education institutions provide academic staff with a foundation of conceptual understanding of these key areas to promote moves toward quality assessment practices.
Emergence of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae among Extended-spectrum Beta-lactamase Producers in Accra, Ghana

Previous studies in Accra had established that extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producers were increasingly becoming a public health nuisance. Since ESBL producers resulted in multi-drug resistance among most beta-lactams and non-beta-lactams, the antibiotic of choice for the treatment of these ESBL infections was carbapenems such as imipenem, meropenem and ertapenems. Hence the emergence and spread of carbapenem resistant bacteria may lead to therapeutically dead end for life-threatening infections. This study therefore focussed on the occurrence of carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae among ESBL producers from clinical specimens analysed at MDS-Lancet Laboratories, Accra, Ghana. One thousand (1000) clinical isolates were identified and analysed for ESBL producers using the combined disk synergy method. In order to determine the carbapenemase producing ESBL bacteria and the antibiotic of choice for treating carbapenem resistant infections, antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed to determine the minimum inhibition concentration of the antibiotics used against the ESBL producers. The antibiotics used included imipenem, meropenem ertapenem and other antibiotics. The results indicated that 600 (75%) of the clinical isolates were ESBL producers. Among the 600 ESBL producers, 43 (7.2) were carbapenem resistant bacteria including 7 different Gram negative bacterial species. Among the carbapenemase producers, Escherichia coli (34.9%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (25.6%) were the dominant bacterial species. The carbapenem resistant bacteria indicated multi-drug resistance to penicillins (100%), cephalosporins (100%), amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (100%), piperacillin-tazobactam (100%), ciprofloxacin (83.7%), gentamycin (79.7%), amikacin (27.9%), colistin (18.6%) and fosfomycin (11.6%). Colistin seems to be is the drug of choice for treating carbapenem resistant strains. Although fosfomycin showed a higher activity, it is only recommended for urinary tract infections. Evidence based antibiotic usage and nosocomial infection control will help to control the emergence of carbapenem resistant strains in Accra, Ghana. Also, there is the need to intensify research in the use of natural products to treat resistant bacterial infections. Keywords : Carbapenem, ESBLs, Antibiotics, Colistin
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, acute myocardial infarction and dyslipidaemia: a comparison of studies

Abstract Background: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) share similar clinical presentation and risk of death, although one of the most important differences is the absence of obstructive coronary disease in TTC. We analysed the available literature and evaluated the prevalence of dyslipidaemia in patients with TTC compared with patients with AMI. Methods: A MEDLINE literature search to identify relevant papers focused on TTC and AMI was performed, evaluating the prevalence of dyslipidaemia in both groups. Systematic reviews, meta-analyses, controlled trials, cohort studies and case-control studies were considered for inclusion. We focused on studies reporting precise data on the prevalence of dyslipidaemia for both groups. Results: Out of a total of 511 articles found, 207 case reports, 24 comments, 56 letters and 57 articles in languages other than English were excluded. Of the remaining 167 papers, 23 articles providing the required information were selected. They included and compared 2247 TTC and 19,843 AMI patients. Cases with dyslipidaemia were 734 (32.7%) in the TTC group and 6592 (33.2%) in the AMI group. Conclusions: Patients with TTC showed a prevalence of dyslipidaemia comparable with that of patients with AMI. The prevalence of dyslipidaemia and clinical outcome in TTC and AMI may represent unrelated issues. It is likely that for TTC patients, other conditions and comorbidities, rather than dyslipidaemia alone and/or other established risk factors, are responsible for a risk of death comparable with that of AMI.
Adverse effects of zoledronic acid infusion in patients treated for postmenopausal osteoporosis

Objective: Renal toxicity and hypocalcemia are two commonest adverse effects of zoledronic acid reported in cancer patients with bone metastasis. Similar data are lacking in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis treated with zoledronic acid infusion. We aimed to evaluate the effects of annual treatment of postmenopausal osteoporotic women with intravenous infusion of zoledronic acid on their renal and hepatic functions. The effects of the drug on the biochemical parameters of the patients were also assessed.
Solution‐Processed GaSe Nanoflake‐Based Films for Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting and Photoelectrochemical‐Type Photodetectors

Gallium selenide (GaSe) is a layered compound, which has been exploited in nonlinear optical applications and photodetectors due to its anisotropic structure and pseudodirect optical gap. Theoretical studies predict that its 2D form is a potential photocatalyst for water splitting reactions. Herein, the photoelectrochemical (PEC) characterization of GaSe nanoflakes (single‐/few‐layer flakes), produced via liquid phase exfoliation, for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in both acidic and alkaline media is reported. In 0.5 m H2SO4, the GaSe photoelectrodes display the best PEC performance, corresponding to a ratiometric power‐saved metric for HER (Φsaved,HER) of 0.09% and a ratiometric power‐saved metric for OER (Φsaved,OER) of 0.25%. When used as PEC‐type photodetectors, GaSe photoelectrodes show a responsivity of ≈0.16 A W−1 upon 455 nm illumination at a light intensity of 63.5 µW cm−2 and applied potential of −0.3 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). Stability tests of GaSe photodetectors demonstrated a durable operation over tens of cathodic linear sweep voltammetry scans in 0.5 m H2SO4 for HER. In contrast, degradation of photoelectrodes occurred in both alkaline and anodic operation due to the highly oxidizing environment and O2‐induced (photo)oxidation effects. The results provide new insight into the PEC properties of GaSe nanoflakes for their exploitation in photoelectrocatalysis, PEC‐type photodetectors, and (bio)sensors.

Andexanet Alfa for Acute Major Bleeding Associated with Factor Xa Inhibitors.

BACKGROUND Andexanet alfa (andexanet) is a recombinant modified human factor Xa decoy protein that has been shown to reverse the inhibition of factor Xa in healthy volunteers. METHODS In this multicenter, prospective, open-label, single-group study, we evaluated 67 patients who had acute major bleeding within 18 hours after the administration of a factor Xa inhibitor. The patients all received a bolus of andexanet followed by a 2-hour infusion of the drug. Patients were evaluated for changes in measures of anti-factor Xa activity and were assessed for clinical hemostatic efficacy during a 12-hour period. All the patients were subsequently followed for 30 days. The efficacy population of 47 patients had a baseline value for anti-factor Xa activity of at least 75 ng per milliliter (or ≥0.5 IU per milliliter for those receiving enoxaparin) and had confirmed bleeding severity at adjudication. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 77 years; most of the patients had substantial cardiovascular disease. Bleeding was predominantly gastrointestinal or intracranial. The mean (±SD) time from emergency department presentation to the administration of the andexanet bolus was 4.8±1.8 hours. After the bolus administration, the median anti-factor Xa activity decreased by 89% (95% confidence interval [CI], 58 to 94) from baseline among patients receiving rivaroxaban and by 93% (95% CI, 87 to 94) among patients receiving apixaban. These levels remained similar during the 2-hour infusion. Four hours after the end of the infusion, there was a relative decrease from baseline of 39% in the measure of anti-factor Xa activity among patients receiving rivaroxaban and of 30% among those receiving apixaban. Twelve hours after the andexanet infusion, clinical hemostasis was adjudicated as excellent or good in 37 of 47 patients in the efficacy analysis (79%; 95% CI, 64 to 89). Thrombotic events occurred in 12 of 67 patients (18%) during the 30-day follow-up. CONCLUSIONS On the basis of a descriptive preliminary analysis, an initial bolus and subsequent 2-hour infusion of andexanet substantially reduced anti-factor Xa activity in patients with acute major bleeding associated with factor Xa inhibitors, with effective hemostasis occurring in 79%.

Optimal strategies for the lifeline differential game with limited lifetime

This paper considers the Lifeline Differential Game with limited lifetime in a plane which is divided by the lifeline into a play region and a goal region. A single evader aims at entering the goal region from the play region by penetrating the lifeline without being captured, while a single pursuer strives to prevent the evader from that by capturing or delaying it with non-zero capture radius. We introduce the concept of the limited lifetime within which the evader has to achieve its goal. Determining the game winner and finding the strategies for two players are challenging due to non-unique terminal conditions and various initial configurations, which is beyond the scope of the classical Hamilton–Jacobi–Isaacs (HJI) approach. An evasion-region based geometric method is proposed to solve this game qualitatively and quantitatively. A new class of Apollonius circles is first introduced and thus a pursuit strategy is proposed for the pursuer to capture the evader at a guaranteed distance of the lifeline. Based on the pursuit strategy, the space of initial states is separated by the so-called barrier into two winning regions which lead to different outcomes of the game. In each winning region, a critical payoff function is designed and the optimal strategy for each player is investigated. The extension to multiplayer cases is also discussed. The presented results are analytical and thus allow for real-time updates.
