Evaluation a Career Planning Course with Case-based Teaching Modelon College Students’ Career Decisions and Learning Satisfaction

This study aims to investigate the impact of the case-based teaching model on college students' career decision making and learning satisfaction. The study conducted both a pre-test and a post-test on a single group of subjects. Thirty-two freshmen (8 males and 24 females) taking the class “Career Planning in Finance” in the department of finance of a business university. The researcher developed case-based teaching model materials for an 18-week career planning courses in one semester. There are two-hour classes per week for a whole semester. The results are as follows: (1) There are significant differences in the pre-test and the post-test on career decisions measured with career decided scores (t=-4.05, p=0.0028). The differences in career indecision scores are also statistically significant (t=-3.85, p=0.0001); (2) The questionnaire on learning satisfaction reports high scores in general (M=4.73, SD=0.40). Meanwhile, the university’s teaching assessment also indicates high satisfaction in this elective course(M=4.89, SD=0.48). Results suggest that college students’ career decision making and learning satisfaction can be increased through their participation in the cased-based career planning courses.
Anticipation and Situation-Assessment Skills in Soccer Under Varying Degrees of Informational Constraint.

The authors tested the notion that expertise effects would be more noticeable when access to situational information was reduced by occluding (i.e., noncued) or freezing (i.e., cued) the environment under temporal constraints. Using an adaptation of tasks developed by Ward, Ericsson, and Williams, the participants viewed video clips of attacking soccer plays frozen or occluded at 3 temporal points and then generated and prioritized situational options and anticipated the outcome. The high-skill players anticipated the outcomes more accurately, generated fewer task-irrelevant options, and were better at prioritizing task-relevant options than their low-skill counterparts. The anticipation scores were significantly and positively correlated with the option prioritization and task-relevant options generated but not with the total options generated. Counter to the authors' prediction, larger skill-based option-prioritization differences were observed when the play was frozen than when it was occluded. These results indicate that processing environmental information depends on temporal and contextual conditions.
Effect of Rosmarinic acid on sertoli cells Apoptosis after exposed with electromagnetic fields (EMF) in Rats

Rosmarinic acid used in European folk medicine to treat numerous ailments as a major anti-oxidant compound. Rosmarinic acid is used to treat bronchial asthma, peptic ulcers, cataract, arthritis, cancer and rheumatoid arthritis. It is found in big quantities in oregano, lemon balm, sage, marjoram; rosemary[1]. Many studies have shown that rosemary extracts play important roles in antiinflammation, anti-tumor, and anti-proliferation in various in vitro and in vivo settings[2]. A number of research studies on the potential health effects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) have been performed in Europe, North America, and Asia such as Iran. The mechanism of the EMF interactions is not well known, although a few studies have suggested the involvement of lipid peroxidation and free radical formation[3], as well as biochemically induced oxidative stress. Many studies by khaki showed EMF had harmful side effects on reproductive organs in mammal’s and could be baneful on spermatogenesis[4-5]. Antioxidants secreted by the reproductive tract protect spermatozoa against the toxic effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS) after ejaculation[6] . Vitamin E, can regulate apoptosis-related protein Bcl-2, Bax expression and confront free radical damage which contributes to a protective effect for ovarian grandiose cells [7]. Previous studies have shown that the extract of rosemary leaves known as antioxidants belongs to the group of polyphenols[2]. the aim of this study was to see antioxidant effect of Rosmarinic acid on dysfunctional in sertoli cells change after exposed with electromagnetic fields (EMF) in Rats.
Effect of Hbs on accuracy of pulse oximetry in blood oxygen saturation level measurement among adult patients with sickle cell disease

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Hbs on accuracy of pulse oximetry in blood oxygen saturation level measurement among adult patients with sickle cell disease crises in Shahid Mohammadi Hospital of Bandar Abbas during 2017. For this cross-sectional study, the statistical population included all patients with sickle cell disease who were hospitalizes in emergency department of Shahid Mohammadi Hospital of Bandar Abbas during the second half of 2017. At first, pulse oximetry was performed on subjects and then the arterial blood samples were taken to analyze arterial blood gas (ABG) according to the protocol. Blood samples were taken from each subject for electrophoresis and determination of Hbs level. The mean results of pulse oximetry on patients was 97.69 ± 1.57, with the lowest 90% and the highest 98%. In contrast, the oxygen content of the ABG analysis varied from 78 to 93%, and the mean of these results was 87.54 ± 3.54. The Hbs level of electrophoresis on patients was 72.78 ± 8.12%. The difference between the blood oxygen saturation level in the blood obtained by pulse oximetry and arterial blood gas analysis was less than 10%. The findings showed that the oxygen saturation level in the blood measured by using two techniques of pulse oximetry and AGB analysis was significantly different. It is advisable to use more accurate techniques to estimate the oxygen saturation level in the blood and to determine the rate of hypoxia.
Drivers of the private equity market: evidence from the UK

There is limited research about the drivers of private equity activity, even with the significant growth in buyout volume as well as buyout value over the last 30 years. This paper examines the impact of the potential driversthat have been shown to influence buyout activity,the aggregate risk premium and creditmarket factors, using a panel of UK buyouts. First, the aggregate risk premium is negatively correlated to buyout activity, and includingthe credit market measuresdoes not changeit. Second,favorable credit market conditions do not necessarilylead to increased buyout activity in this research. Third,a closer look on the research period shows the impact of the factors have changed over the years.However, the risk premium retains its negative impact on buyout activity. This research highlightsand confirms the important role of the risk premium for decisions in corporate financein the UK.
Clinical Use of Image Quality Criteria in Computed Tomography: A Pilot Study

The rapid technological development within CT has resulted in a continuing expansion of CT examinations. Due to the high radiation dose often delivered by CT it is important to ensure that the required diagnostic information is achieved with minimum dose to the patient. The European Guidelines on Quality Criteria for CT includes anatomical/diagnostic image quality criteria for six main groups of examinations: cranium, face and neck, spine, chest, abdomen and pelvis, and bones and joints. The clinical use of such criteria has been limited and a pilot multicentre study has therefore been performed with regard to their utility in clinical practice for five types of examinations: (1) face and sinuses, (2) vertebral trauma, (3) HRCT of the lung, (4) liver and spleen, and (5) osseous pelvis. The results show that the diagnostic criteria can be used to optimise CT procedures to achieve doses that are as low as consistent with required diagnostic image quality.

Bifidobacterium lactis BB-12 Attenuates Macrophage Aging Induced by D-Galactose and Promotes M2 Macrophage Polarization

Immunosenescence comprises a set of dynamic changes occurring in innate and adaptive immune systems, and macrophage aging plays an important role in innate and adaptive immunosenescence. However, function and polarization changes in aging macrophages have not been fully evaluated, and no effective method for delaying macrophage senescence is currently available. The results of this study reveal that D-galactose (D-gal) can promote J774A.1 macrophage senescence and induce macrophage M1 polarization differentiation. Bifidobacterium lactis BB-12 can significantly inhibit J774A.1 macrophage senescence induced by D-gal. IL-6 and IL-12 levels in the BB-12 groups remarkably decreased compared with that in the D-gal group, and the M2 marker, IL-10, and Arg-1 mRNA levels increased in the BB-12 group. BB-12 inhibited the expression of p-signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) and promoted p-STAT6 expression. In summary, the present study indicates that BB-12 can attenuate the J774A.1 macrophage senescence and induce M2 macrophage polarization, thereby indicating the potential of BB-12 to slow down immunosenescence and inflamm-aging.
Characterization and Domestication of Wild Edible Mushrooms from Selected Indigenous Forests in Burundi

In Burundi, minimum work has been done to comprehensively identify and commercialize high yielding local mushrooms. The previous studies carried out on mushroom cultivation have focused on exotic strains. This is the first study undertaken on domestication of wild edible mushrooms from Burundi indigenous forests. Nine samples were collected from four protected areas and characterized using phenotypic and molecular markers. Germoplasm isolation through tissue culture techniques, spawn production and cultivation studies were also undertaken. Mushroom samples were identified as Pleurotus citrinopileatus , Lentinus squarrosulus , Hypholoma fasciculare , Laetiporus sulfureus , Macrolepiota dolichaula , Trametes polyzona , Amanita zambiana , Lactarius delicious and Amanita verna. Spawn production was successful in six of the nine collected species. Fruiting body production was successful for Pleurotus citrinopileatus , Lentinus squarrosulus , Hypholoma fasciculare and Trametes polyzona . Mushroom yield and biological efficiency of domesticated species varied among species and ranged from 15.3 to 30.6% and 41.2% to 81%, respectively. Macrolepiota dolichaula and Laetiporus sulfureus remained at the secondary mycelium stage while Amanita zambiana , Lactarius delicious and Amanita verna did not develop even the mother spawn. Burundi indigenous forests harbour wild edible mushrooms with potential for domestication. More research should be conducted to domesticate them for food and nutritional security.
Xylan-degrading ability of thermophilic Actinobacteria from soil in a geothermal area

Rachmania MK, Ningsih F, Setyaningsih PP, Syafitri WA, Sari DCAF, Yabe S, Yokota A, Oetari A, Sjamsuridjal W. 2020. Xylan-degrading ability of thermophilic Actinobacteria isolated from soil in a geothermal area. Biodiversitas 21: 144-154. This study was conducted to obtain the potential isolates of xylan-degrading thermophilic Actinobacteria. Seventeen isolates were obtained from the soil samples collected from Cisolok geysers in West Java, Indonesia. These isolates were screened for their xylan-degrading ability on minimal medium with the addition of 0.5% xylan as substrate, and were incubated at various temperatures for 7 days. A total of 15, 14, 4, and 3 isolates showed a xylan-degrading ability at 45°C, 50°C, 55°C, and 60°C, respectively. The three isolates (SL1-2-R-2, SL12-R-3, and SL1-2-R-4) that showed xylan-degrading ability at 60°C on 0.5% xylan were further tested by using minimal medium with the addition of 0.1% RBB-xylan as a substrate. The results showed that these isolates were also able to utilized RBB-xylan at 45 to 60°C. The xylanolytic activity of the crude enzymes from the three isolates on minimal medium containing 0.5% xylan or 0.1% RBBxylan as substrates, indicated that these isolates were able to produce extracellular xylanase. This study revealed that the soil of Cisolok geysers served as an ideal source for finding the thermophilic Actinobacteria which produced xylanase at high temperatures.
NeuroImage: Clinical Resting state fMRI based multilayer network con ﬁ guration in patients with schizophrenia

Novel methods for measuring large-scale dynamic brain organisation are needed to provide new biomarkers of schizophrenia. Using a method for modelling dynamic modular organisation (Mucha al., 2010), evidence suggests higher ‘ ﬂ exibility ’ (switching between multilayer network communities) to be a feature of schizo- phrenia (Braun et al., 2016). The current study compared ﬂ exibility between 55 patients with schizophrenia and 72 controls (the COBRE Dataset). In addition, novel methods of ‘ between resting state network synchronisation ’ (BRSNS) and the probability of transition from one community to another were used to further describe group di ﬀ erences in dynamic community structure. There was signi ﬁ cantly higher schizophrenia group ﬂ exibility scores in cerebellar (F (1124) = 9.33, p (FDR) = 0.017), subcortical (F (1124) = 13.14, p (FDR) = 0.005), and fronto-parietal task control (F (1124) = 7.19, p (FDR) = 0.033) resting state networks (RSNs), as well as in the left thalamus suggested This study suggests and provides novel Mediation did be no better a and
Therapeutic potential of vascular stem cells for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is well known to have poor potential healing when injured. Most surgical procedures for ACL reconstruction (ACLR) using hamstring tendon grafts require tendon-bone healing and graft maturation, however, the tendon-bone attachment is the weakest area in the surgically created bone tunnel in the early post-operative period. Therefore, acquiring secure tendon-bone integration is an essential task for earlier rehabilitation program and earlier return to work and sports.
Post-transcriptional regulation of microRNA biogenesis and localization in mammalian neurons

microRNA-dependent post-transcriptional control represents an important gene-regulatory layer in post-mitotic neuronal development and synaptic plasticity. We recently identified the brain-enriched miR-138 as a negative regulator of dendritic spine morphogenesis in rat hippocampal neurons. A potential involvement of miR-138 in cognition is further supported by a recent GWAS study on memory performance in a cohort of aged (> 60 years) individuals. The expression of miR-138, which is encoded in two independent genomic loci (miR-138-1 and -2), is subject to both cell-type and developmental stage-specific regulation, the underlying molecular mechanisms however are poorly understood. Here, we show that miR-138-2 is the primary source of mature miR-138 in developing rat hippocampal neurons. Furthermore, we obtained evidence for the regulation of miR-138-2 biogenesis at the level of primary miRNA processing. Using biochemical pull-down assays, we identified the nuclear matrix protein Matrin-3 as pri/pre-miR-138 interacting protein and mapped the interaction to the pri/pre-miR138-2 loop region. Matrin-3 loss-of-function experiments in HEK293 cells and primary neurons together with protein localization studies suggest an inhibitory function of Matrin-3 in nuclear pri-miR-138-2 processing. Together, our experiments unravel a new mechanism of miR-138 regulation in neurons, with important implications for miR-138 regulation during neuronal development, synaptic plasticity and memory-related processes.
GROWTH AND PRODUCTIVITY IN COLOMBIA

This paper focuses on the so-called “engines of growth”, where growth explanations are related to the effects of adequate economic policies rather than to exogenous factors, such as geography, demography, or institutional instabilities. The idea is to explain patterns of growth and productivity as a direct result of economic policies dealing with openness to international trade, exchange rate regimes, taxation, all of which play a crucial role in determining the capital/labor ratio and the total factor productivity trends.
Vortex‐Wide Detection of Large Aspherical NAT Particles in the Arctic Winter 2011/12 Stratosphere

Micron‐sized HNO3‐containing particles in polar stratospheric clouds are known to denitrify the polar winter stratosphere and support chemical ozone loss. We show that populations of nitric acid trihydrate (NAT) particles with volume‐equivalent median radii of 3–7 μm can be detected vortex‐wide by means of infrared limb sounding. Key for detection are the applied optical characteristics of highly aspherical particles consisting of the β‐NAT phase. Spectroscopic signatures and ambient conditions of detected populations show that these particles play a key role in denitrification of the Arctic winter stratosphere. Complementary gas‐phase HNO3 observations indicate collocated highly efficient HNO3 sequestration within days and are consistent with measured spectral signals of populations of large NAT particles. High amounts of condensed gas‐phase equivalent HNO3 exceeding 10 ppbv and long persistence of detected populations, despite expected gravitational settling, imply that our understanding of the particles is incomplete.
Multimodal Sparse Representation Learning and Cross-Modal Synthesis

Humans have a natural ability to process and relate concurrent sensations in different sensory modalities such as vision, hearing, smell, and taste. In order for artificial intelligence to be more human-like in their capabilities, it needs to be able to interpret and translate multimodal information. However, multimodal data are heterogenous, and the relationship between modalities is often complex. For example, there exist a number of correct ways to draw an image given a text description. Similarly, many text descriptions can be valid for an image. Summarizing and translating multimodal data is therefore challenging. In this thesis, I describe multimodal sparse coding schemes that can learn to represent multiple data modalities jointly. A key premise behind joint sparse coding is the representational power that captures complementary information while reducing statistical redundancy. As a result, my schemes can improve the performance of classification and retrieval tasks involving co-occurring data modalities. Building on the deep learning framework, I also present probabilistic generative models that produce new data conditioned on an input from another data modality. Specifically, I develop text-to-image synthesis models based on generative adversarial networks (GAN). To improve the visual realism and the diversity of generated images, I propose additional objective functions and a new GAN architecture. Furthermore, I propose a novel sampling strategy for training data that promotes output diversity under adversarial setting.

Information capability under the lens of the dynamic capabilities theory

The technological development, especially after the emergence of the Internet, has speeded up the flow of digital data and information,leading to an increasing volume of data and information. Various researches have been conductedon the study of capabilities that might contribute to organizational performance, among them the information technology capability and information management capability. There is also the Information Capability, which was initially studiedin 2000. The theoretical approach mostly used in these researchers has been the RBV theory. However, when a competitive scenario grows unpredictably and rapidly, it is necessary to adapt to it by reconfiguring the existing resources and capabilities and, if necessary, by developing new capabilities. Thus, this study aims to discuss the dynamic capabilities as a theoretical lens to understand the information capability, proposing a model that contributes to the theoretical advance on this topic and enhance organizational performance.
The LoCo Perspective

T he role of land–atmosphere (L-A) interactions in weather and climate prediction has emerged over the last two decades as important but inherently challenging and complex. One reason is that L-A interaction research has proceeded “in reverse” compared to most science. Typically in Earth system sciences, observations inform theory, which then leads to the development and gradual refinement of conceptual and numerical models based on elucidated physical processes. The benchmark for such models’ success, and the progress of the underlying science, is when they begin to consistently outperform purely statistical approaches inherently not based in the representation of physical processes (Best et al. 2015). Conversely, coupled L-A (i.e., weather and climate) models arose well before the theoretical basis for
Increasing Purchase Decisions on Palm Oil Seeds Through Marketing Mix and Trust

This study aims to examine the impact of trust and marketing mix (product, price, place, and promotion) on the firms’ purchase decisions of palm oil seeds. To meet such aim, we carried out a purposive sampling to obtain the respondents of palm oil firm in West Sumatera. After 82 respondents obtained, to tell on which variables could affect the firms’ purchase decisions of palm oil seeds we performed PLS-SEM. The findings showed that marketing mix comprising product, price, place, and promotion could significantly affect the purchase decisions of firms in West Sumatera on palm oil seeds after mediated by trust. Based on the findings, this study may provide insights for the firms of palm oil seeds in a way to increasing their customer purchase
