Spine and head chiropractic therapy promotes neuropsychological development and decreases prevalence of cerebral palsy in premature infants

Objective: To Evaluate the efficacy of spine and head chiropractic therapy (SHCT) on neuropsychological development and incidence of cerebral palsy in very low birth weight premature infants. Methods: 125 infants were randomly divided into control and SHCT groups. The infants of both groups received conventional therapy, 40 minutes per session for control group and 40 minutes followed by 20 minutes of SHCT for SHCT group. The treatment lasted 3 sessions a week for 20 months. Neuropsychological development, social emotion, social skill and incidence of cerebral palsy were measured. Results: At 24 months corrected age the mental developmental quotient scores of each domain in the SHCT group were higher than those in the control group (gross motor, P < 0.001; fine motor, P < 0.001; adaptation, P < 0.01; social skills, P < 0.05, respectively). Compared with control group, the infants at 24 months corrected age in the SHCT group showed lower overt behavior, implicit behavior and dysregulation domain scores (P < 0.01; P < 0.01; P < 0.05, respectively), incidence of cerebral palsy (P < 0.05) and higher scores in realms of capabilities (P < 0.01). Conclusions: SHCT for very low birth weight preterm infants can promote neuropsychological development and decrease risk of cerebral palsy.
Expression of FOXP1 and FOXO3a in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and the implications in clinicopathological signi ﬁ cance and prognosis

Aims: Extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (EHCC) is a highly malignant tumor with poor prognosis and intrinsic resistance to cytotoxic agents. The molecular mechanisms associated with high malignancy and resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy have not been fully elucidated. This study investigated the clinicopathological signi ﬁ cances of FOXP1 and FOXO3a expression in EHCC. Methods: We assayed FOXP1 and FOXO3a expressions in 100 EHCC, 30 peritumoral tissues, 10 adenoma and 15 normal biliary tract tissues using EnVision immunohistochemistry. Results: The positive rates of FOXP1 and FOXO3a proteins were signi ﬁ cantly lower in EHCC tumors than in peritumoral tissues, adenoma, and normal bile tract tissues ( P <0.05 or P <0.01). Adenoma and pericancerous tissues with negative FOXP1 and/or FOXO3a protein expressions exhibited atypical hyperplasia. The positive correlation was established between the expression of FOXP1 and FOXO3a in EHCC ( P <0.01). The positive rates of FOXP1 and FOXO3a expression were signi ﬁ cantly higher in cases with well differentiation, no metastasis in lymph node, no invasion to surrounding tissues and organs, TNM I + II stage and radical resection ( p <0.05 or p <0.01). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that EHCC patients with positive FOXP1 and FOXO3a expression survived signi ﬁ cantly higher than patients with negative FOXP1 and FOXO3a expression, respectively ( P <0.001). Cox multivariate analysis revealed that negative FOXP1 or FOXO3a expressions were independent poor prognostic factors in EHCC patients. The AUCs for FOXP1 and FOXO3a were 0.676 (95% CI: 0.589 – 0.763, P ＜ 0.001) and 0.652 (95% CI: 0.563 – 741, P =0.002), respectively. Conclusion: The present study indicates that negative FOXP1 and FOXO3a expressions are closely associated with the pathogenesis, clinical, pathological and biological behaviors, and poor prognosis in EHCC.
What Does Transition Mean?: Post-socialist and Western European Countries Paralleled

This paper suggests a broad concept of transition that is built upon the techno-economic paradigm framework, and defines transition as that institutional change process during which the ‘match’ between a new technology and institutions is attained. It is argued that the post-socialist transition itself should be seen as the first phase in this institutional change process brought about by the emerging new techno-economic paradigm (ICT revolution), which is a challenge also for Western European economies. This paper provides evidence for the claim that both the frontrunners and the continental Western European countries face the same problem—namely, acquiring the kind of institutional structure that is appropriate for the ICT revolution, as shown in two fields, i.e., the labour market and firm organisation.
Trans-arterial chemoembolization with sorafenib treatment improves long-term overall survival of patients with intermediate hepatocellular carcinoma

Recently published studies concerning the combination of TACE and sorafenib for patients with intermediate HCC [Barcelona Clinic liver cancer stage B (BCLC-B)] have been limited. The current study aimed to compare the therapeutic effects of trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with or without sorafenib treatment in BCLC-B HCC patients. Clinical data of 80 BCLC-B HCC patients was retrospectively analyzed. Moreover, 46 patients received TACE + sorafenib treatment, while 34 patients received TACE alone treatment. Overall survival (OS) and adverse effects (AEs) were compared. Baseline data showed no significant differences between the two groups. Short-term efficacy evaluations revealed no significant differences in CR, PR, SD, and OR rates between the two groups. PD rates were significantly higher in the TACE-treated group (P = 0.018). Median OS was significantly longer in the TACE combined with sorafenib treatment (33.0 [95% CI: 29.7-36.2] vs. 22.0 [95% 17.7-26.3] months, long rank test, P < 0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that Child-Pugh classification (HR = 5.32, 95% CI: 1.55-18.30, P = 0.008), tumor diameter (HR = 5.84, 95% CI: 1.47-23.11, P = 0.01), and treatment methods (TACE alone or TACE with sorafenib) (HR = 0.19, 95% CI: 0.07-0.47, P < 0.001) were independently associated with OS. Occurrence rates of rashes, hand-foot skin reactions, and hypertension adverse events were higher in the sorafenib with TACE group (all P < 0.05). However, toxic reactions were all within a controllable range. TACE combined with sorafenib treatment provides extended long-term OS for BCLC-B HCC patients. Thus, it may be a better choice for treatment than TACE alone.
Assessing Knowledge, Attitudes and Practice of Hand Washing with Soap among Mothers and Caregivers of Children under Five years in Ntungamo District, Uganda

Background: The study of hand washing practices in Ntungamo district is part of a larger strategy being implemented in different countries to decrease the prevalence of childhood diarrhea, in the frame work of the global public – private partnership for hand washing with soap. Purpose: This study of hand washing practices using soap in Ntungamo district aimed at reducing childhood diarrhea prevalence in the district. It represents a preliminary study designed to collect the information necessary to design appropriate strategies to reduce diarrhea prevalence in under five years of age. Methods: The study used quantitative and qualitative methods to collect data from a representative sample of several supervision areas of Ntungamo district. Results: The practice of hand washing after latrine use among the respondents was very low (52%) compared to washing hands before and after meals (77%). The study also revealed a low use of soap during hand washing where (52%) who washed their hands after contact with feces, only 14.6% used soap. Whereas whose who washed their hands while handling food were77%, but out of 77% only 28% used soap There was no diarrhea reported among respondents that had A-level education and only 20% of those that had post-secondary education reported having diarrhea episodes among the under-five compared to 64% that reported diarrhea among the under-fives for those that had incomplete primary level of education, 57% among the households of functional adult learning graduates and 49% for those that completed primary level of education.

Corpus-based acquisition of collocational prepositional phrases

Collocational prepositional phrases like ten koste van (at the expense of), met het oog op (with an eye on), and onder het mom van (under the pretext of) are patterns of the form P-NP-P, which have a non-compositional semantics and which are syntactically rigid or idiosyncratic. We present a number of linguistic tests which set such items apart from regularly built prepositional phrases. To find candidate strings which should be included in a computational lexicon as collocational prepositional phrases, we extract all instances of the relevant pattern from a corpus annotated with POS tags. Next, we introduce a number of statistical tests (mutual information, log-likelihood, and ) to find those instances which behave like strong collocations. The strongest collocations according to the statistical tests are compared with lists of such items presented elsewhere, and were evaluated by human judges.
Comprehensive nursing intervention on negative emotions, quality of life, and cardiopulmonary function in patients with coronary heart disease

Objective: The aim of the current study was to explore the effects of comprehensive nursing intervention on anxiety and depression, quality of life, and cardiopulmonary function in patients with coronary heart disease. Methods: According to different nursing methods, 129 patients with coronary heart disease were randomly divided into the conventional nursing group and comprehensive nursing group. The comprehensive nursing group received psychological intervention and continuing nursing care based on cognitive behavioral therapy and based on conventional nursing. Scores of the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS), quality of life assessment (SF-36), myocardial performance index (Tei index), measured by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) after intervention, and 6-minute walking test results were recorded and compared between the two groups at admission and 6 months after discharge. Results: Before and after intervention, SAS and SDS scores of the comprehensive nursing group were significantly lower than those of the conventional nursing group (both P < 0.05). In addition, quality of life scores, Tei index, and 6-minute walking test results in the comprehensive nursing group were notably improved, compared to those in the control group (all P < 0.05). Conclusion: Compared with conventional nursing intervention, comprehensive nursing intervention can effectively relieve anxiety and depression, improve quality of life, and strengthen cardiopulmonary function in patients.
Affection and social behavior in teaching planning: the role of the consequences of behavior1

368 2017 I volume 28 I número 3 I 368-377 Abstract: Our goal in this paper is to reflect on the need for an integrated view of development of cognition and affection for academic planning. We explored, in particular, the role of consequences of student behavior, which is one of the major contributions to psychology from behavior analysis. The key issue for this integrated approach is to look at the student as an active subject, one that manipulates and transforms the surrounding environment at all times. The social relationships that are developed in this context involve interwoven behavioral units. Sometimes, individuals act over the environment, transforming it; sometimes they serve as critical aspects of the environment in which others act. Based on these considerations, this article points to the need of identifying relationships between individuals and their social environment, especially those relationships which can be described using the notion of positive social reinforcement (adding something). In this sense, social relationships should be planned based on the contributions from studies showing the role of the consequences of human behavior, especially social behavior. As a result, the text points out that the practical tool to deal with issues related to affection and cognition in teaching involves identifying and dealing with the social consequences of people’s behavior. Criticism to the concept of reinforcement for the analysis of human behavior are opposed to the notion that requires dealing with the effects of the consequences, taking into account the complexity of human behavior in social contexts.
Prevalence and Outcome of Severe Acute Malnutrition among Children 6-59 Months, in Magumeri Local Government Area, Borno State, Attending General Hospital Magumeri, Borno State, Nigeria

This is a retrospective observational hospital-based study aimed to determine the prevalence and outcome of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) in children 6 – 59 months in Magumeri local Government area admitted to Magumeri General Hospital – INTERSOS Nigeria Stabilization centre during the period December 2018 to June 2019. A total of 171 children with severe acute malnutrition were identified; 104 of cases were male (60.8%) while 67 (39.2%) were females. The mean age of the admitted children was 15.8 months. Children 36–59 months were least affected. The overall prevalence of severe malnutrition was 4.0%, and the general mortality rate was 3.8% while mortality rate among children with severe malnutrition was 2.9%. Amongst children admitted with SAM, 126 (73.7%) had marasmus, 30 (17.5%) had kwashiorkor and only 16 (9.4%) were marasmic-kwashiorkor. The highest prevalence rates occurred in February and April. The common clinical presentations were acute diarrhea disease, upper respiratory tract infection, malaria, urinary tract infections, dermatitis, measles, sepsis and pneumonia. Only 14.6% were fully vaccinated, while 49.7% were not vaccinated. Overall 81.9% improved and were discharged, 8.2% were transferred to the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital for management of other severe medical complications, 7 % discharged against medical advice and 2.9 % died. In conclusion, the prevalence and mortality among children with SAM at Magumeri Local Government area were high, and the current management strategies were inadequate to cater for the high cases as a result of the crisis in the region.
Concurrent chemotherapy with or without nimotuzumab for treatment for locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: a meta-analysis

Background: Nimotuzumab (NTZ) has been reported to improve outcomes of locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LANPC). The current meta-analysis was conducted to assess the efficacy and toxicities of adding NTZ to standard cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in LANPC. Methods: Present researchers systematically searched various electronic databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, for publications from January 1, 1990, to July 31, 2018. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) for overall survival (OS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), loco-regional relapse-free survival (LRFS), disease-free survival (DFS), progression-free survival (PFS), and pooled risk ratios (RRs) for adverse events were meta-analyzed. Results: A total of 1,444 patients with LANPC, included in 4 retrospective cohort studies, were included for analysis. HRs between the CCRT plus NTZ group and CCRT group were 0.70 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.44-1.12, P=0.14), 0.75 (95% CI 0.50-1.12, P=0.16), 0.60 (95% CI 0.33-1.08, P=0.09), 0.59 (95% CI 0.41-0.86, P=0.006), and 1.28 (95% CI 0.58-2.85) for OS, DMFS, LRFS, DFS, and PFS, respectively. However, subgroup analysis indicated that the CCRT plus NTZ group had higher 3-year OS (HR=0.44, 95% CI 0.25-0.79, P=0.004) and 3-year DMFS (HR=0.56, 95% CI 0.35-0.89, P=0.01). No differences in incidence of grade 3-4 hematological toxicities (anemia, leucopenia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia), and grade 3-4 non-hematological toxicities (mucositis, dermatitis, nausea, vomiting, and weight loss) were found. Conclusion: Adding NTZ to CCRT effectively improved 3-year survival rates in patients with LANPC, with no significant differences in adverse events, compared with CCRT alone.
A STUDIES ON CONTEXT FREE GRAMMAR BY USING PUBLIC KEY PAIRS

Many scholars would agree that, had it not been for extensible communication, the analysis of XML might never have occurred. In fact, few cyberneticists would disagree with the study of context-free grammar. It at first glance seems perverse but has ample precedence. We propose an analysis of DHTs, which we call Ridgel.

Two approaches using the same basic detection scheme are presented. First one, developed for acoustic scenes with non-overlapping sound events is evaluated with Office Live development dataset. Second one, developed for acoustic scenes with some degree of overlapping sound events is evaluated with Office Synthetic development dataset.
In search of a post-communist future

Why do we so uncritically buy the "democratic rhetoric" of our rulers instead of countering their selfish designs? How was it possible in too many post-communist countries that incredible riches accumulated in the hands of the parasitic few? Why is political power so often fused with wealth? These are only a few of the questions debated by two philosophers in search of an answer to what went wrong in the post-communist world after 1989.
Effects of Rumen-protected Methionine, Choline and Betaine on Dairy Cattle Health and Performance

Dairy cows experience fatty liver syndrome due to excess lipid mobilization during the transition from gestation to lactation. The progression of fatty liver disease and other peripartal ailments can compromise milk production and reproductive performance. Methionine (Met), choline, and betaine are involved into the synthesis of very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) that export triacylglycerol (TAG) from the liver. Therefore, our objective was to investigate the effects of micronutrient co-supplementation on metabolic health and production during the periparturient period. Thirty multiparous Holstein cows independently housed were fed total mixed rations (TMR) with or without micronutrients (22 g/d Met, 10 g/d choline chloride, and 3 g/d betaine) from d -28 prepartrum to d 14 postpartrum (Mecovit vs. Control, respectively). All cows received 65 g/d of lipid encapsulate composed of 62% palmitic acid. Milk and blood samples were collected routinely. Liver biopsy samples were collected at d -28, 5, and 14, relative to calving. Milk components, plasma and serum metabolites were measured using midinfrared spectroscopy, colorimetry, immunassay, indirect potentiometry, and gas chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (GC/MS/MS), respectively. Data were analyzed with repeated measures under a mixed model with fixed effects of treatment and time. Times were used as repeated measures. Significant time effects were observed for all milk components, dry matter intake (DMI), body condition score (BCS), body weight (BW), plasma metabolites (nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA), β-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA), glucose, insulin, TAG, total cholesterol, free cholesterol, and cholesterol esters, VLDL, low-density lipoprotein (LDL)),
Teacher assistants in inclusive schools

Jaint ProDepending on what country you live in, the personnel hired by schools to assist classroom teachers and special educators in their efforts to educate students with disabilities are known by a variety of names such as teaching assistant, learning support assistant (LSA), teacher aide, paraprofessional, paraeducator, and special needs assis;tant" (SNA). In this chapter we purposely rise the title, teacher assistant rather than teaching assistant, because in all the cases we identified around the world these individuals assist teachers, though not always with teaching. The purpose of this chapter is to summarize selected literature regarding the utilization of teacher assistants to support the education of students with disabilities in inclusive, general education, classes. First, we will provide a brief overview of research trends and summarize what is known about teacher assistants. Second, the chapter addresses three contemporary questions:
Viral Video Group Project-Persuasion in a Digital Age

Searching Viewers can now actively look for and find information that is pertinent and relevant to them and the issues of the day. These searches are also often interconnected. so a search or a video may well call up related searches or videos which lead users in one direction or another. Shares Media can be shared almost effortlessly from person to person and to multiple people and even to people that do not know each other. It is this networked and interactive nature of new media that has unleashed the potential for videos to spread beyond the expectations of their creators. Once media is digital there are very few barriers to sharing it, and if it catches the attention of people that pass it to other people in their network, a video can be spread through very large audiences in a short span of time. The results are not always positive (see the ethics section below) but the powerful influence of a viral video is hard to do.
Influence of Different Percentages of Crude Oil Pollution and Substrate Quantities on Primordial Formation, Yield and Biological Efficiency of Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq.Ex.Fr) P. Kumm and Pleurotus pulmonarius (Fries) Quel

The study was conducted to determine the effect of crude oil pollutant and substrate quantity on primordial formation, yield and biological efficiency (B.E%) of P. ostreatus and P. pulmonarius. Crude oil as pollutant was used at 3 levels of 2%, 4% and 6% and control against 2500g of loamy soil while Andropogon gayanus straw was used as the substrate at 150g/kg (4cm) and 300g/kg (8cm) thick layer respectively stuffed into 5lit. transparent plastic buckets perforated with two lateral holes of 5mm diameter from middle to the top. Results showed that different percentage crude oil pollution affected spawn duration by apparently delaying fruit body formation of both oyster mushroom species when compared to control. 300g/kg quantity of substrate supported high yield of P. ostreatus than that of P. Pulmonarius and same trend observed at 150g/kg. Therefore, both oyster species could be adopted in mycoremediation process if substrate is used in right quantity.
