Source and Propagation of a Streamer Blowout Coronal Mass Ejection Observed by the Parker Solar Probe

In the first orbit of the Parker Solar Probe (PSP), in situ thermal plasma and magnetic field measurements were collected as close as 35 RSun from the Sun, an environment that had not been previously explored. During the first orbit of PSP, the spacecraft flew through a streamer blowout coronal mass ejection (SBO-CME) on 2018 November 11 at 23:50 UT as it exited the science encounter. The SBO-CME on November 11 was directed away from the Earth and was not visible by L1 or Earth-based telescopes due to this geometric configuration. However, PSP and the STEREO-A spacecraft were able to make observations of this slow (v ≈ 380 km s−1) SBO-CME. Using the PSP data, STEREO-A images, and Wang–Sheeley–Arge model, the source region of the CME is found to be a helmet streamer formed between the northern polar coronal hole and a mid-latitude coronal hole. Using the YGUAZU-A model, the propagation of the CME is traced from the source at the Sun to PSP. This model predicts the travel time of the flux rope to the PSP spacecraft as 30 hr, which is within 0.33 hr of the actual measured arrival time. The in situ Solar Wind Electrons Alphas and Protons data were examined to determine that no shock was associated with this SBO-CME. Modeling of the SBO-CME shows that no shock was present at PSP; however, at other positions along the SBO-CME front, a shock could have formed. The geometry of the event requires in situ and remote sensing observations to characterize the SBO-CME and further understand its role in space weather.
Relationship between Workplace Mistreatment and on-job Behavior (Psychological Capital as Moderator)

This study aims to investigate workplace mistreatment (workplace incivility, abusive supervision, workplace mobbing) among faculty serving in various universities of Pakistan. The data was collected from 408 faculty members working in public and private sector universities in Pakistan. Prevalence of workplace mistreatment among faculty members was identified. Especially, workplace mobbing was found to be significantly higher among public sector teachers as well as the female faculty. Recommendations for university management and Higher Education Commission are discussed.
Finance and Inequality

The study examines empirical relationships between income inequality and three features of finance: depth (financial sector size relative to the economy), inclusion (access to and use of financial services by individuals and firms), and stability (absence of financial distress). Using new data covering a wide range of countries, the analysis finds that the financial sector can play a role in reducing inequality, complementing redistributive fiscal policy. By expanding the provision of financial services to low-income households and small businesses, it can serve as a powerful lever in helping create a more inclusive society but—if not well managed—it can amplify inequalities.
A Linear Estimator for Factor-Augmented Fixed-T Panels With Endogenous Regressors

Abstract A novel method-of-moments approach is proposed for the estimation of factor-augmented panel data models with endogenous regressors when T is fixed. The underlying methodology involves approximating the unobserved common factors using observed factor proxies. The resulting moment conditions are linear in the parameters. The proposed approach addresses several issues which arise with existing nonlinear estimators that are available in fixed T panels, such as local minima-related problems, a sensitivity to particular normalization schemes, and a potential lack of global identification. We apply our approach to a large panel of households and estimate the price elasticity of urban water demand. A simulation study confirms that our approach performs well in finite samples.
Find invasive seaweed: An outdoor game to engage children in science activities that detect marine biological invasion

Abstract Invasive species threaten worldwide biodiversity. Success in facing this problem may be possible through the engagement of younger audiences. Here, a game was designed to teach children how to recognize invasive seaweed and to encourage them to participate in marine citizen science. The game was first tested in a pilot study, and then carried out in Salinas High School (Asturias, Spain). Game-based training consisted of an explanation of invasive species, followed by the ‘Find invasive seaweed’ game and was evaluated with tests before and after the activity. After training, students spent 3 months looking for invasive species. Four invasive species were detected in the study area. The results showed a positive impact on knowledge gains and significant differences in marine environmental awareness and conservation actions.
Subjective Parental Beliefs. Their Measurement and Role

We study the importance of maternal subjective beliefs about the technology of skill formation in determining parental investments on child development. We describe our framework in three steps. First, we discuss the construction of the survey instrument we used to elicit maternal subjective beliefs. Second, we show how to convert the answers to the survey instrument into estimates of maternal subjective beliefs. Finally, we correlate maternal subjective beliefs with maternal investments of child development. We apply our framework to a unique dataset collected as part of an 18-month-long parenting stimulation program in Colombia, whose target population were low-income households with children aged 12 to 24 months at baseline and lasted 18 months. In this program, home visitors paid weekly visits to randomly chosen households to improve mother-child interactions and other maternal behaviors that foster the development of children&apos;s cognitive and non-cognitive skills. We show that the vast majority of mothers believe that the technology of skill formation follows a Cobb-Douglas parameterization, but there is significant heterogeneity in coefficients of investments across mothers. In particular, mothers hold low subjective expectations, which means that mothers underestimate the returns to their investments. We also find that maternal subjective beliefs predict investments, but that the program did not affect maternal subjective beliefs.
Effect of Adiposity and Type Of Antipsychotic Medication On Plasma Levels Of Resistin And Adiponectin In Patients With Major Mental Illnesses

Metabolic alteration is not uncommon in patients with major mental illnesses (MMI) and adipokines are thought to play some roles. Presently, the link between adiposity, adipokines release and MMI is still poorly understood. This study was carried out to determine the possible impact of central adiposity and type of antipsychotic medication on plasma levels of adiponectin and resistin in patients with MMI. Plasma levels of adiponectin and resistin were determined in ninety adults comprising 65 patients with MMI and 25 apparently healthy individuals, who served as controls. Anthropometry and blood pressure (BP) of the study participants were taken using standard methods. Anthropometric indices, BP and plasma level of adiponectin, but not resistin, were significantly higher in patients with MMI compared with the controls. The median plasma adiponectin level was significantly higher in patients with depression compared with patients with schizophrenia and the controls. However, the median plasma levels of adiponectin and resistin were insignificantly higher in patients with central obesity compared with patients without central obesity and in patients on atypical drugs compared with patients on typical drugs. Also, there was no significant difference in the median plasma levels of adiponectin and resistin in patients on clozapine or olanzapine compared with those on risperidone. It could be concluded from this study that patients with MMI have elevated level of adiponectin which does not appear to be influenced by central adiposity and type of antipsychotic medication.

Relation Expression of Eestrogen Reseptor and Ki67 in Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Breast Cancer

Estrogen are potent mitogenic stimuli that share important properties in the control of cellular proliferation. Increased expression and/or activity of estrogen reseptor (ER) result in aberrant activation of downstream signaling pathways including cAMP/PKA, MAPK/ERK and PI3K/AKT. The importance of estrogen and as a signaling axis in cancer development, progression and metastasis is highlighted by its effects on cancer cells, notably proliferation. But, all mechanism of this proliferation action ER and Ki67 not complete clear yet. The study aims to explore the coupling between the signaling cascades of estrogen receptors to celular proliferation (Ki67). This research used an exploration analitik with cross sectional design, 59 specimen pathologi were explore with Immunohistochemia (IHC) examine to asses expression of Estrogen reseptor and Ki67 in invasif ductal breast cancer. To asses corelation beetwen ER and Ki67 with Chi-Square Test. Result found that the IHC examation show that propotion ER. : 35/ 55 (63 %), Ki67 :32/55 ( 58 %) in invasive ductal breast cancer. Correlated beetwen ER and Ki67 expression no signiﬁcant p>0.05 in invasif ductal breast cancer. In conclution, ER does not play a signiﬁcant role in celluler proliferation in Invasive breast cancer.
Probabilistic Model for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Diagnosis and Phenotyping using Bayesian Network

World Health Organization (WHO) reports Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as a leading cause of death worldwide with 90% of COPD deaths realized in middle and low-income countries. COPD prevalence is expected to increase by more than 30% in the next decade unless urgent actions are taken to reduce the associated risk factors. Reports from Canada, Australia, and United Kingdom show that COPD is prone to misdiagnosis for Asthma yet such countries have hospitals equipped with tools and staff to handle COPD. A spirometer is the main diagnostic tool used to diagnose and separate COPD and Asthma. However, the use of spirometry comes with a number of challenges that make them less useful. This contrast triggers the desire to know the level of COPD prevalence in developing countries in addition to the design a diagnostic device that could be used in resource constrained societies. Consequently, this research seeks to provide a model for COPD diagnosis and classification of cases into phenotypes using a Bayesian Network. Model construction was achieved through developing the Bayesian Network structure and instantiating the parameters for each variable. Model performance is validated using neural network application based on the LevenbergMarquardt algorithm. Results show that a Bayesian Network has successfully differentiate COPD from Asthma and classified COPD cases into phenotypes. In addition, this study seeks to determine the software requirements for the design and development of a medical device for COPD diagnosis. Such a tool may be used for targeted case finding in resource constrained communities for early identification and treatment of COPD.
Causes of Dizziness Requiring Hospitalization in Emergency Department Patients: Five-Year Experiences of a Training Hospital

Objective: Dizziness, which is one of the frequent complaints of the emergency departments, has a broad spectrum of differential diagnosis. The aim of this study is to examine the severe causes of dizziness requiring hospitalization and to discuss the diagnostic processes in light of the literature in order to contribute to the management of emergency department patients with dizziness. Methods: In this cross-sectional observational study, medical records of adult patients who applied to the emergency department of a comprehensive medical centre due to dizziness between January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2017 were screened retrospectively. The frequency and demographic characteristics of patients with isolated dizziness and the causes of dizziness in hospitalized patients were examined in detail. Results: A total of 20.542 (2.3%) patients were admitted to the emergency department due to dizziness in five years. The median age of the study population was 51 (IQR: 37-65) years and 59% of them were female. Of these, 326 (1.6%) patients with median age of 64 (IQR: 56-74) years were hospitalized and 54% of them were male,The most common causes of dizziness in hospitalized patients were central neurological (36.8%), peripheral vestibular (27.3%), cardiac (8.9%), and metabolic (8.0%) disorders and each were presented with subheadings. Conclusions: Benign vestibular disorders as well as serious systemic disorders are seen in patients with dizziness. The causes of dizziness, differential diagnosis processes, and epidemiological data examined in this study may be useful in planning optimized algorithms of dizziness.
Predicting the Relationship of Antecedent Variables of Intention to Use: Empirical Analysis on E-Money Application

This study aims to predict the relationship of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, relative superiority, nature of transactions, and substitution to adoptions that affect intention to use of smart phone-based electronic money. The variables in this study are relative advantages, transaction nature, perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use, substitution and adoption of electronic money. Data collection techniques in this study were conducted using a questionnaire with judgmental sampling method. The size of the respondents is 142 respondents. The data obtained is analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results show that the six hypotheses are supported. The intention to use electronic money is also influenced by the adoption of electronic money. The adoption of electronic money is a significant predictor of intention to use electronic money. This study also provides limitations and suggestions for further research.
Alliances and Accomplices Rise: A Critical Look at a Partnership with a School Serving an Indigenous Community

Conventional research in the social sciences roots itself in the colonial surmise behind the supremacist ideologies of Western and White knowledge, ways of living, people, and institutions. The well-established hegemony of the Western positivist research paradigm encourages a paternalistic and asymmetrical researcher-researched relationship, which reserves “legitimate” knowledge creation for an elite few. In this way, research traditions have largely functioned to uphold the status quo, especially when conducted with Indigenous peoples. Community-based research challenges the positivist empire by emphasizing community knowledge in researcher-community collaborations for the sake of taking action on community-identified issues. Mutually-beneficial researcher-community partnerships are especially relevant to research with Indigenous communities, who continue to fight marginalizing policies and practices in their fight for self-determination and tribal sovereignty. This critical case study highlights community voices as it tells the story of a CBR venture with non-Indigenous researchers and a school serving a Navajo community. Critical Indigenous Research Methodology (CIRM) (Brayboy et al., 2012) guided the process and findings illustrate the potential of CIRM to support CBR that: (a) disrupts rigid institutional norms; and (b) integrates IWOK. Implications for schools, researchers, and communities are outlined.
Impact of soil salinity on the cowpea nodule-microbiome and the isolation of halotolerant PGPR strains to promote plant growth under salinity stress

Four soil samples (SS-1—SS-4) isolated from semi-arid soils in Punjab, Pakistan were used as inocula for cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) grown under salinity stress to analyze the composition of bacteria in the rhizosphere and within nodules through cultivation-dependent and cultivation-independent methods. Two cowpea varieties, 603 and the salt-tolerant CB 46, were each inoculated with four different native soil samples, and data showed that plants inoculated with soil samples SS-2 and SS-4 grew better than plants inoculated with soil samples SS-1 and SS-3. Bacteria were isolated from both soils and nodules, and 34 of the 51 original isolates tested positive for PGPR traits in plate assays with many exhibiting multiple plant growth-promoting properties. A number of isolates were positive for all PGPR traits tested. For the microbiome studies, environmental DNA (eDNA) was isolated from SS-1 and SS-4, which represented the extremes of the Pakistan soils to which the plants responded, and by 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis were found to consist mainly of Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, and Proteobacteria. However, sequencing analysis of eDNA isolated from cowpea nodules established by the trap plants grown in the four Pakistan soils indicated that the nodule microbiome consisted almost exclusively of Proteobacterial sequences, particularly Bradyrhizobium. Yet, many other bacteria including Rhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Pseudomonas, as well as Paenibacillus, Bacillus as well as non-proteobacterial genera were isolated from the nodules of soil-inoculated cowpea plants. This discrepancy between the bacteria isolated from cowpea nodules (Proteobacteria and non-Proteobacteria) versus those detected in the nodule microbiome (Proteobacteria) needs further study.
The Global Determinants of International Equity Risk Premiums

We examine the commonality in international equity risk premiums by linking empirical evidence for the international stock return predictability of US downside and upside variance risk premiums (DVP and UVP, respectively) with implications from an international asset pricing framework, which takes the perspective of a US/global investor and features asymmetric global macroeconomic, financial market, and risk aversion shocks. We find that DVP and UVP predict international stock returns through different global equity risk premium determinants: bad and good macroeconomic uncertainties, respectively. Across countries, US investors demand lower macroeconomic risk compensation but higher financial market risk compensation for more-integrated countries.
Comparative Analysis of Depth of Meditation Between Long-Term and Short Term Meditators using Electroencephalography

Background and Aim: The present study was designed to evaluate the brain electrical activity among Long-term meditators (LTMs) and Short-term meditators (STMs) using Electroencephalography (EEG). Methods: This prospective study involved 40 mins of EEG recordings, carried out twice i.e. at Day 0 (Baseline) and at Day 10 (During meditation) in thirty-four (34) participants. Twelve (12) apparently healthy male, right-handed, practicing preksha meditation (Since >5 years, at least 5 days a week) were recruited as long-term meditators; Twelve (12) subjects who attended the 10-days short-term yoga-based lifestyle intervention program were recruited as short-term meditators; Ten (10) male healthy controls, who did not participate in any dietary/yoga intervention were recruited among the staff members. The EEG waves were analyzed at Day 0 and at Day 10 using Wilcoxon Signed Rank test and Repeated measured ANOVA respectively. One-way ANOVA was used for the baseline EEG waves activity comparison among LTMs vs. STMs vs. Controls. The response to photic stimulation was also assessed during meditation. Results: Significant different patterns of alpha and theta waves (p<0.05) activity was observed for LTM vs. STM during meditation vs. baseline. Also, significant different baseline EEG waves (p<0.05) were observed among LTM vs. STM vs. Controls. Conclusion: Findings may be useful in defining the basic EEG features to differentiate meditators based on the duration of practice of meditation and depth of meditation.
Correlation of hexokinase-2 expression with overall survival and potential as a therapeutic target in the treatment of breast cancer brain metastases

1005 Background: The prevalence of brain metastasis from breast cancer (BCA) is increasing. We have identified several potential therapeutic targets through gene expression profiling of human BCA brain metastases. One potential target, hexokinase II (HK-2), is up-regulated in brain metastases as compared to unlinked primary tumors. HK-2 plays a vital role in the generation of many components required for cell growth and inhibits apoptosis through mitochondrial binding. We hypothesized that HK-2 promotes metastatic cell proliferation in the brain and that its increased expression would negatively impact patient survival post-resection. Methods: The gene expression profile of surgically resected human BCA brain metastases was compared to that of non-related unlinked primary invasive ductal carcinomas using cDNA microarray analysis. In a separate retrospective study, we generated survival curves dividing a cohort of 113 patients based on HK-2 immunoreactivity in resected brain metastases. To evaluate the fun.
