Distribution and Drug Resistance of Pathogenic Bacteria and Prognosis in Patients with Septicemia Bloodstream Infection with Renal Insufficiency

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria and the prognosis of patients with sepsis bloodstream infection with renal insufficiency. Methods One hundred and twelve patients with septicemic bloodstream infection with renal insufficiency and 112 patients with septic bloodstream infection without renal insufficiency were selected as study group and control group, respectively. We compare the distribution of pathogenic bacteria, analyze the drug resistance of major bacteria, and compare the efficacy, the incidence of septic shock, duration of mechanical ventilation, hospitalization time, and duration of antimicrobial drug administration between the two groups. Results A total of 140 pathogenic strains were isolated from blood cultures in the study group, and 136 strains were isolated from blood cultures in the control group. The sepsis bloodstream infection was mainly caused by Gram-negative bacteria, accounting for 59.42% (164/276). Among the gram-negative bacteria, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii had higher resistance rates to levofloxacin, ceftazidime, piperacillin sodium tazobactam, and amikacin. Among the gram-positive bacteria, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Enterococcus, and Staphylococcus aureus had high resistance rates to clindamycin, cefazolin, penicillin G, gentamicin, azithromycin, and levofloxacin. The rate of extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBLs)-producing enterobacteria and multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDR-PA) infection was significantly higher in the study group than in the control group; there was no difference in multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MDR-AB), vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) between the two groups. The duration of hospitalization and the duration of antimicrobial drug administration were longer in the study group than in the control group. Conclusion The pathogenic bacteria in patients with sepsis bloodstream infection with renal insufficiency are mainly Gram-negative bacteria, are more difficult to be cured, have a longer course of treatment, and need to use antibacterial drugs for a long time.
Housing conditions and psychological distress among higher education students: a systematic literature review

ABSTRACT Housing has been identified as one of the most important areas related to individual well-being in emerging adults attending a tertiary educational institution. Thus, the purpose of this systematic review is to explore the relationship between students’ housing conditions and students’ psychical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. The review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Outcomes were categorised into 10 categories: 1. homesickness and adaptation to college life; 2. overall health and distress; 3. sleep; 4. depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions; 5. alcohol abuse; 6. substance abuse; 7. tobacco use; 8. internet addiction; 9. eating disorders; and 10. sexual behaviours. Student housing conditions play an important role in a variety of health and health-related problems. These findings underscore the relationship between housing conditions and different facets of students’ mental and physical wellbeing, emphasising the importance of addressing housing conditions in mental health prevention and intervention programmes.
Magnetic field topology of the plasma sheet boundary layer

The magnetic field topology of the plasma sheet boundary layer (PSBL) and its neighborhood is examined using a steady, two‐dimensional (2‐D), ideal MHD reconstruction method. We study four PSBL crossings, from the lobe toward the plasma sheet and back into the lobe, by the Cluster spacecraft in the Earth's magnetotail around (x, y, z) = (–17.3, 4.3, –6.3) RE in GSM. The four PSBL events are selected for having no intense ion beams. Two reconstructed magnetic field topologies give, for the first time, a 3‐D view of the PSBL, showing that one has a rather large gradient in the magnetic structure than another. A quantitative agreement of the current density between the reconstruction and curlometer methods is achieved for the overall results but with some discrepancies remaining, which will be discussed in terms of 3‐D and temporal effects. This agreement indicates that the current density can be estimated by the reconstruction if certain conditions are satisfied. Finally, we point out that a PSBL structure with intense ion beams would somehow degrade the accuracy of the ideal MHD reconstruction. This degradation may be due to the nonideal MHD properties and/or the transient properties of the ion beams. Further sophisticated investigations on this issue are needed for clarification.
AdS$_3$ and AdS$_2$ Magnetic Brane Solutions

We investigate AdS$_3$ and AdS$_2$ magnetic brane solutions within the consistent truncation of AdS$_5 \times S^5$ supergravity. The AdS$_3$ solution extends earlier work by allowing a general embedding of the magnetic $U(1)$ in $SO(6)$. We determine the ratio of strong- and weak-coupling entropies as a function of this embedding. Further, by considering crossed magnetic fields in different $U(1)$'s we are able to construct a solution that runs from AdS$_5$ in the UV to AdS$_2 \times R^3$ in the IR. We find the notable result that there is a zero temperature entropy at strong coupling but not at weak coupling. We also show that the AdS$_2$ solution and at least some of the AdS$_3$ solutions are stable within the truncation.
Energy-band parameters of atomic-layer-deposition Al2O3/InGaAs heterostructure

The valence-band offset has been determined to be 3.83±0.05eV at the atomic-layer-deposition Al2O3∕InGaAs interface by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The Au–Al2O3∕InGaAs metal-oxide-semiconductor diode exhibits current-voltage characteristics dominated by Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. From the current-voltage data at forward and reverse biases, a conduction-band offset of 1.6±0.1eV at the Al2O3–InGaAs interface and an electron effective mass ∼0.28±0.04m0 of the Al2O3 layer have been extracted. Consequently, combining the valence-band offset, the conduction-band offset, and the energy-band gap of the InGaAs, the energy-band gap of the atomic-layer-deposited Al2O3 is 6.65±0.11eV.
COORDINATION BETWEEN ENVIRONMENT, POVERTY, AND SDGS THROUGH A CARBON TAX COORDINACI´ON ENTRE MEDIO AMBIENTE, POBREZA Y ODS A TRAV´ES DE UN IMPUESTO AL CARB´ON

ser alrededor del 15%, que es m´as alta que la imple- mentada el causar efectos distorsionantes. Abstract: Since 2014, Mexico has implemented a carbon tax policy, which has not reached the expected revenue, failed at decreasing emissions, and had a regressive eﬀect. Moreover, there has not been coordination between climate and other SustainableDevelopment Goals (SDGs). To explore this, we perform a Computable General Equilibriumanalysis to simulate a coordinated carbon tax policy aimed at reaching the SDGs goals related to poverty, mortality, and education. The results suggest that the required carbon tax rate for approaching SDGs targets by 2030 should be around 15%, which is higher than the actual rate and may cause other distortionary eﬀects.
Identification and Typing of Strains of Wood-Rotting Basidiomycetes by Protein Profiling Using MALDI-TOF MS

The accurate identification and proper typing of basidiomycetes are required in medical, sanitary maintenance, agriculture, and biotechnology fields. A diagnostic method based on information from whole-cell proteins acquired by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) was investigated to identify wood-rotting fungi, a group of filamentous fungi. In this study, mass spectra of intracellular peptides obtained from cultured mycelia of 50 strains of 10 wood-rotting fungal species were obtained multiple times and mass spectral patterns (MSPs) consisting of peaks that characterized the fungal species or strain was created to construct an in-house database. The species identification was conducted by comparing the newly obtained raw mass spectra with the MSPs in the database using the MALDI Biotyper. The results showed that the peak patterns of the mass spectra were reproducible and matched at the strain level. A cluster analysis based on the MSPs was also conducted to examine inter-and intraspecific diversity among the tested wood-rotting basidiomycetes. Most of the fungal strains examined in this study could be identified to a species level; however, the strains belonging to Pleurotus could only be identified to a genus level. This was due to an intraspecific variation, so the identification accuracy could be amendable with a more enhanced database.
An experimental study on kinetics-controlled Ca-carbonate aqueous reduction into CH4 (1 and 2 GPa, 550 oC): Implications for C mobility in subduction zones

Abiotic methane (CH4) generation under subduction zone conditions has been experimentally investigated through aqueous reduction of pure C-bearing materials (e.g. carbonate minerals and organic matter). However, quantitative assessments of CH4 production in these experiments, as well as the potential effects of other components such as silica (Si) on the reduction processes, have not yet been well established. Here, we performed experiments to quantitatively evaluate the time-resolved Ca-carbonate aqueous reduction into CH4 at P = 1 and 2 GPa, and T = 550 oC in the CaO + COH, CaO + SiO2 + COH, and CaO + SiO2 + MgO + COH systems, employing calcite + water ± quartz ± serpentine (synthetic chlorine (Cl)-bearing chrysotile and natural Fe−Al-bearing antigorite) as starting materials. Redox conditions of the experiments were buffered by iron−wüstite (IW) using a double capsule setting, corresponding to oxygen fugacity (fO2) values (expressed as log units relative to the fayalite–magnetite–quartz buffer, ΔFMQ) in the inner capsule of ΔFMQ ≈ −5.5 at 1 GPa and ΔFMQ ≈ −6.0 at 2 GPa. The solid products are mainly composed of portlandite ± larnite ± wollastonite ± brucite, while Ca-carbonate and/or silicate reactants commonly occur as relicts. Quadrupole mass spectrometric analysis shows that CH4 and H2O are the major COH molecular species in the fluid products, with molar ratios between CH4 and starting calcite representing the reaction progress ranging from ~0.13 to ~1.00. Comparisons of experimental run products with thermodynamically predicted phase assemblages, together with time-series experiments, indicate that the reduction processes are primarily controlled by reaction kinetics. At 1 GPa and 550 oC, rate constants of 4.0 × 10-6 s-1, 7.4 × 10-6 s-1, and 2.6 × 10-6 s-1 were retrieved for reactions starting with calcite + quartz + water, calcite + synthetic Cl-bearing chrysotile + water, and calcite + natural Fe−Al-bearing antigorite + water, respectively, significantly higher than the constant of 0.8 × 10-6 s-1 for the silicate-absent reaction. Besides, an increase in pressures can also enhance the reduction efficiency of Ca-carbonates until reaching equilibrium with the fluids. Our data provide experimental evidence for kinetics-controlled Ca-carbonate aqueous reduction into CH4 in subduction zones, indicating that silicate involvement and/or pressure increase can accelerate the reaction rates through short-lived fluid−rock interactions, which may have important implications for deep C mobility.
Parental Attributions—Mothers’ Voices in Economically and Socially Disadvantaged Contexts

In the present study, the attributions of socially and economically disadvantaged mothers for their own negative parenting behavior and for their children’s undesirable behaviors as perceived by parents—understood as misbehavior—were analyzed. To this end, an exploratory study with a qualitative design was developed, in which 24 socially and economically disadvantaged mothers were individually interviewed. The data were analyzed following a thematic analysis approach, using software suited to qualitative analysis, namely NVIVO 12. The children’s undesirable behaviors as perceived by parents and some characteristics associated with parental performance (particularly the appraisal of the effectiveness of their negative practices) emerged respectively as external and internal factors, explaining mothers’ inadaptive behaviors—difficulties in behavior regulation, physical coercion, psychological control and paraverbal hostility. The parental subsystem and school emerged as the main external factors, and the psychological characteristics as the most relevant internal factors, explaining the children’s undesirable behaviors—challenge, immaturity, hostility, emotionally-based, school behavior/absenteeism and danger. The results also indicate weak self-critical reflexivity regarding some of the inadaptive behaviors. The comprehensive analysis of the results, based on the literature review, gave rise to an explanatory hypothesis on the dysfunctional circular process regarding the maintenance of inadaptive practices and children’s undesirable behaviors, considering the role played by parental attributions and by insufficient parental reflexivity.
Minimizing the AoI in Multi-Source Two-Hop Systems under an Average Resource Constraint

We develop online scheduling policies to minimize the sum average age of information (AoI) subject to transmission capacity and long-run average resource constraints in a multisource two-hop system, where independent sources randomly generate status update packets which are sent to the destination via a relay through error-prone links. A stochastic optimization problem is formulated and solved in known and unknown environments. For the known environment, an online nearoptimal low-complexity policy is developed using the driftplus-penalty method. For the unknown environment, a deep reinforcement learning policy is developed by employing the Lyapunov optimization theory and a dueling double deep Qnetwork. Simulation results show up to 136% performance improvement of the proposed policy compared to a greedy-based baseline policy.
Early Childhood Tahfizh Education: Optimization the Aspects of Children's Development and Religious Soul of Children in the Golden Age

This study aims to describe tahfidz education in early childhood in terms of the perspective of the development and religious spirit of children during the golden age at the Markaz Tahfizh Balita (MARTABA) Al-Makki Pekanbaru. This type of research is qualitative research with a Case Study model. The informants of this research were teachers and students at MARTABA Al-Makki Pekanbaru. The data collection techniques use in-depth interviews (depth interviews) and observation. While the data analysis technique is done by data reduction, data display, and verification. In general, tahfizd learning activities are to form good habits from an early age that can form a religious spirit and stimulate developmental aspects in children. The tahfizd learning program at MARATABA Al-Makki Pekanbaru has facilitated aspects of early childhood development which include; aspects of internalizing moral and religious values, aspects of gross motor development, and aspects of fine motor development, aspects of language development, aspects of cognitive development, and aspects of social-emotional development. In addition to the aspects of psychological development above, the learning program also pays attention to adequate nutritional intake to stimulate children's development. Tahfizh learning is also able to optimize the development of children's religious spirit from an early age. For this reason, tahfidz learning activities for early childhood at MARTABA Al-Makki Pekanbaru can be an example of organizing a tahfidz program for early childhood.
Climate matching and anthropogenic factors contribute to the colonization and extinction of local populations during avian invasions

Concern about the impacts of biological invasions has generated a great deal of interest in understanding factors that determine invasion success. Most of our current knowledge comes from static approaches that use spatial patterns as a proxy of temporal processes. These approaches assume that species are present in areas where environmental conditions are the most favourable. However, this assumption is problematic when applied to dynamic processes such as species expansions when equilibrium has not been reached.
A survey of minimally invasive surfactant therapy in Canada

Introduction Minimally invasive surfactant therapy (MIST) can be used to treat neonatal respiratory distress syndrome in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Clinical and institutional variances in MIST utilization persist globally with little published research regarding MIST utilization in Canada. Therefore, the objective of this study was to survey MIST utilization in NICUs in Canada. Methods An online survey was emailed to the 33 participating centres of Canadian Neonatal NetworkTM (CNN) Evidence-based Practice for Improving Quality (EPIQ) Lung Health Group (LHG). Site demographics and surfactant therapy procedural details were categorically collected. Free text and multiple-choice questions were utilized to capture perceived barriers and individual preferences for MIST use. Results Twenty-eight of 33 participating members of the CNN EPIQ-LHG completed the survey between April 2021 and October 2021 (85%); 17/28 (61%) respondents reported ongoing MIST utilization at their center. Most centers that used MIST techniques administered bovine lipid extract surfactant (68%), commonly using angiocatheters (47%) and purpose-built catheters (41%). MIST was widely used for patients at 26–33 weeks gestational age (88%). Nine centres had never used MIST (32%), and 3 indicated a plan to implement MIST within the next 2 years. Common barriers to MIST use included lack of consensus amongst clinicians (78%), lack of training (56%), and lack of experience with MIST (56%). Conclusion While MIST is being increasingly used in Canadian NICUs, universal use is yet to be seen. Clinician inexperience and lack of consensus, formal training, and local guidelines contribute to underutilization of MIST. Training workshops, country-wide data collection, and uniform operating protocols are needed to standardize practice.
Time Adaptive Wavelet Denoising

SUMMARY. In this paper we address shrinking wavelet coeecients by taking into consideration the \time" behavior of data. Our approach is Bayesian. We test the hypotheses that the signal parts of the wavelet coeecients are zero (H 0) against general alternatives. The prior probabilities of the hypotheses H 0 are assumed dependent on the coarsest level of details. The achieved shrinkage is of \hard-thresholding" type. Both 1D and 2D data sets are considered in illustrating the method.
Bacterial diseases outbreaks in some freshwater fish farms in Kafr El-Sheikh, Egypt

ABSTRACT Bacterial fish diseases are one of the challenges facing the aquaculture industry and lead to tremendous economic losses. After surveying the infected farms understudy from April 2018 to November 2019, we collected 480 samples from 12 tilapia and carp farms experiencing mortalities in Kafr El-Sheikh region of Egypt with major aquaculture production. Clinically, hemorrhages, exophthalmia, and ulceration were the most common symptoms. We then determined the frequency, bacteriological and molecular identity, antibiotic sensitivity, pathogenicity, and histopathological characteristics of pathogens. For molecular identification was used a set of specific primers (16S rRNA, 16SPSEflu, and Sin-1b). Our results showed that Aeromonas hydrophila, Pseudomonas fluorescens, and Streptococcus iniae were the most important causes. Antibiotic sensitivity test revealed that all isolates were highly sensitive to ciprofloxacin. Additionally, naturally and experimentally infected fish are the same in pathognomonic signs. Overall, a valuable tool for diagnosis is the combination of both bacteriological and molecular examination. Besides, choosing the best antibiotics by sensitivity test helps avoid drug resistance phenomenon.
A GRAPHICS PROCESSING UNIT-ENABLED, HIGH-RESOLUTION COSMOLOGICAL MICROLENSING PARAMETER SURVEY

In the era of synoptic surveys, the number of known gravitationally lensed quasars is set to increase by over an order of magnitude. These new discoveries will enable a move from single-quasar studies to investigations of statistical samples, presenting new opportunities to test theoretical models for the structure of quasar accretion disks and broad emission line regions (BELRs). As one crucial step in preparing for this influx of new lensed systems, a large-scale exploration of microlensing convergence–shear parameter space is warranted, requiring the computation of O(105) high-resolution magnification maps. Based on properties of known lensed quasars, and expectations from accretion disk/BELR modeling, we identify regions of convergence–shear parameter space, map sizes, smooth matter fractions, and pixel resolutions that should be covered. We describe how the computationally time-consuming task of producing ∼290,000 magnification maps with sufficient resolution (10,0002 pixel map−1) to probe scales from the inner edge of the accretion disk to the BELR can be achieved in ∼400 days on a 100 teraflop s−1 high-performance computing facility, where the processing performance is achieved with graphics processing units. We illustrate a use-case for the parameter survey by investigating the effects of varying the lens macro-model on accretion disk constraints in the lensed quasar Q2237+0305. We find that although all constraints are consistent within their current error bars, models with more densely packed microlenses tend to predict shallower accretion disk radial temperature profiles. With a large parameter survey such as the one described here, such systematics on microlensing measurements could be fully explored.
Differential Graded Lie Algebras and Deformations of Holomorphic Maps

We construct the deformation functor associated to a couple of morphisms of differential graded Lie algebras, and use it to study the infinitesimal deformations of a holomorphic map of compact complex manifolds. In particular, in the case of K\"ahler manifolds we describe a generalizzation of the semiregularity map.
Impact of Obesity on Microvascular Obstruction and Area at Risk in Patients After ST-Segment-Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

Background Better survival for overweight and obese patients after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been demonstrated. The association between body mass index (BMI), microvascular obstruction (MVO), and area at risk (AAR) after STEMI was evaluated. Methods A prospective observational study was performed to enrolled patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) for STEMI and cardiac magnetic resonance was performed within 5–7 days. Patients were classified as normal weight (18.5 ≤BMI <24.0 kg/m2), overweight (24.0 ≤BMI <28.0 kg/m2), or obese (BMI ≥28 kg/m2). Results Among 225 patients undergoing pPCI, 67 (30.00%) were normal weight, 113 (50.22%) were overweight, and 45 (20.00%) were obese. BMI ≥28 kg/m2 was significantly associated with less risk of MVO when compared with a normal BMI after multivariable adjustment (overweight: HR 0.29, 95% CI 0.13–0.68, p = 0.004). Compared with normal weight patients, obese and overweight patients tend to have larger hearts (greater left ventricular end-diastolic volume [LVEDV] and left ventricular [LV] mass). In adjusted analysis, increased BMI was significantly associated with a smaller AAR. In addition, obese patients had a smaller AAR (β = −0.252, 95% CI −20.298- −3.244, p = 0.007) and AAR, % LV mass (β = −0.331, 95% CI −0.211- −0.062, p < 0.001) than normal weight patients. Conclusion Obesity (BMI ≥28 kg/m2) is independently associated with lower risks of MVO and a smaller AAR, % LV mass than normal weight patients among subjects undergoing pPCI for STEMI.
