Effectiveness of an Evidence Based Insulin Injection Guidelines Application on Diabetic Children Mothers' Awareness about insulin injection: A quasi experimental study

: Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus is one of the most frequent chronic diseases where its incidence increased from birth to 12 years with a peak between 10-14 years of age. Insulin therapy is a drug of choice and become a routine part of daily life for diabetic children /families . However, errors in injection technique and self-dosing increase the likelihood of serious adverse events as lipohypertrophy, hypo and hyperglycemia that can be avoided through increase mothers and diabetic children awareness Study aim was evaluate effect of an Evidence Based Insulin Injection Guidelines Application on Mothers' Awareness about insulin injection and its complication on their diabetic children. Methodology: A quasi experimental design was used Setting: inpatient department and outpatient clinic of endocrinology. Subjects was 61 mothers of school age diabetic children. Four tools were used; I was an interview questionnaire that assessed sociodemographic characteristics of mothers and also children plus children clinical data ;II was insulin Injection Technique Questionnaire (ITQ) that assessed mothers' insulin injection knowledge ,attitude and skills ;III was insulin injection checklist that assessed mothers' pen and syringe insulin injection techniques and tool IV lipohypertrophy checklist that assessed presence and grades of diabetic children lipohypertrophy. Results: regarding total percentage score of mothers Knowledge, Attitude and Practices about insulin injection pre, immediately and post 6 months from Evidence-Based Insulin Injection Guidelines Application were improved with statistically significant differences p=<0.001 ;while complication of insulin injection among diabetic children as lipohypertrophy, hypo and hyperglycemia and bleeding had no statistically significant differences where pain 98.0% of children had no pain pre Evidence-Based Insulin Injection Guidelines Application compared to 57.5% post 6 months with statistically significant differences p=0.001 and the rational of this variation returned to improper insulin injection rotation that leading to painless feeling with injection (lipohypertrophy). Conclusion: Evidence-Based Insulin Injection Guidelines Application improved diabetic children mother awareness about insulin injection . Recommendation: insulin injection remain a crucial part in management of insulin dependent diabetes mellitus and a gap in mothers' awareness about insulin injection and its complication need basic education of proper insulin injection that not requires a major changes in health care system.
Reading assignment

We propose a new deterministic approach to coreference resolution that combines the global information and precise features of modern machine-learning models with the transparency and modularity of deterministic, rule-based systems. Our sieve architecture applies a battery of deterministic coreference models one at a time from highest to lowest precision, where each model builds on the previous model’s cluster output. The two stages of our sieve-based architecture, a mention detection stage that heavily favors recall, followed by coreference sieves that are precision-oriented, offer a powerful way to achieve both high precision and high recall. Further, our approach makes use of global information through an entity-centric model that encourages the sharing of features across all mentions that point to the same real-world entity. Despite its simplicity, our approach gives state-of-the-art performance on several corpora and genres, and has also been incorporated into hybrid state-of-the-art coreference systems for Chinese and
Empowerment Program for Mothers to Improve Quality of Life of their Children with Chronic Kidney Disease

: Chronic kidney disease refers to irreversible kidney damage that can further progress to end-stage renal disease and dramatically affects children's quality of life. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of empowerment program on mothers to improve quality of life of their children with chronic kidney disease. Subjects and methods; Quasi experimental design was used, fifty five children with chronic kidney disease from both sex and their mothers were included in the study; the study conducted at Children’s Hospital affiliated to Ain Shams University Hospitals. The tools of data collection included questionnaire sheet to assess knowledge of the studied mothers, observation sheet to assess the studied mothers practice, family empowerment scale and empowerment program as well as pediatric quality of life inventory version 4.0 to assess quality of life of the studied children. The results revealed that 70.9% of the studied mothers had unsatisfactory knowledge about CKD pre intervention. Meanwhile the majority (90.9%) of them had satisfactory knowledge post intervention, where x 2 = 43.78 and p-value = . 001. A statistical significance difference was observed pre/post empowerment program implementation regarding to knowledge and practice of mothers about the disease and its management; also, there was a statistical significance difference pre/ post empowerment program implementation regarding to quality of life of children with chronic kidney disease with p-value= . 030. Conclusion: There was positive effect of empowerment program on improving knowledge and practice of the studied mothers as well as quality of life of their children with chronic kidney disease. Recommendations: Encourage use of empowerment program for mothers having children with chronic kidney disease based on their actual needs assessment. Further researches are needed to improve quality of life of children with chronic kidney disease.
Learning Island-insensitivity from the input: A corpus analysis of child-and youth-directed text in Norwegian

Norwegian allows filler-gap dependencies into relative clauses (RCs) and embedded questions (EQs) – domains that are usually considered islands in other languages. We conducted a corpus study on youth-directed reading material to assess what direct evidence Norwegian children receive for filler-gap dependencies into islands. Results suggest that the input contains examples of filler-gap dependencies into both RCs and EQs, but the examples are significantly less frequent than long-distance filler-gap dependencies into non-island clauses. Moreover, evidence for island violations is characterized by the absence of forms that are, in principle, acceptable in the target grammar. Thus, although they encounter dependencies into islands, children must generalize beyond the fine-grained distributional characteristics of the input to acquire the full pattern of island-insensitivity in their target language. We consider how different learning models would fare on acquiring the target generalizations and speculate on how the observed distribution of acceptable filler-gap dependencies reflects the interaction of syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic conditions.
Self-efficacy and practices of pregnant women with Symptomatic Urinary Tract Infection

: The risks of urinary tract infection (UTI) are higher among pregnant women which foster the need for approaches to assist with and maintain behavioral change. Hence this study aimed to assess Self-efficacy and practices of pregnant women with Symptomatic Urinary Tract Infection. Design: descriptive cross sectional design was adopted. Sample: purposive sampling was used to recruit 100 pregnant women attending at primary health care (PHC) centers in Ismailia city. Tools: a structured interviewing questionnaire, UTI Symptoms Assessment questionnaire (UTISA) Results: Frequency of urination has the highest mean of symptoms severity (1.68±1.08), followed by burning urination (1.48±1.16) then lower abdomen pressure (1.45±1.04). Similarly, the most bothersome symptoms were frequency urination followed by burning urination then lower abdomen pressure (1.62±1.13, 1.37±1.18, and 1.35±1.18 respectively). (70%) had unsatisfactory practices pertaining UTI. Areas of unsatisfactory practices included dietary habits and urinary habits (81% and 70%, respectively) in addition to personal hygiene, clothing, sexual hygiene and habits with regard to urinary tract infection. (56%) of the studied pregnant women had low self-efficacy related to performing practices to combat UTI. Conclusion, voiding pattern abnormality followed by irritative symptoms were the most severe and bothersome UTI symptoms reported. Pregnant women with symptomatic UTI had unsatisfactory practices especially regarding dietary habits and urinary habits. And they had low self-efficacy regarding performing practices to prevent and manage urinary tract infection. Recommendations provide health education programs about UTIs focusing on self-care practices and employing self-efficacy. Periodic bacteriuria investigation in pregnant women is critical for treatment and prevention of urinary tract infections.

River Systems of Himalaya: Archive of Past Climate and Tectonics

River systems in Himalaya evolve interacting with climatic changes and neotectonic adjustments that take place in this mountainous region. The resulting landscape thus becomes an important archive to understand the past climato-tectonic conditions. This article reviews the published peer reviewed literature dealing with river systems draining the Himalaya and its foreland between 2007-1 1. The rivers in Himalaya from NW-NE preserve morphostratigraphic records suggesting their in-phase oscillation with climate. Aggradation takes place in the climatic transition from drier to wetter and the incision during the enhanced monsoon phases. Geomorphic configuration of the terraces indicate that the mountain front is deforming at higher rates but there are zones of deformation occurring within the Himalayan prism as well. The geochemical proxies indicate the increased erosion from lesser Himalaya during the weaker monsoon phases and from Higher Himalaya during the wetter phases.
A Tellecollaborative Approach to Written Corrective Feedback

Smartphones have become more sophisticated allowing several apps to be built in or installed on them. This has facilitated connectivity as well which has paved the way for more interaction especially among student community through social media like Viber, What’s up, Telegram and so on. Thus, taking this opportunity, teachers have started to use these devices as a means of instruction in many parts of the world particularly for L2 learning. This has raised a question about the effectiveness of using these apps as teaching tools for language learning. This mixed method study attempted to 1) investigate the impact of using Telegram on providing feedback and improving writing accuracy in L2 and to 2) discover students’ perceptions toward using this app for writing purpose. For this purpose, two advanced classes taking a general English course at a language institute were selected. The intact classes, 15 female participants in each, were divided into two groups: One of them as a control and the other as an experimental group. Having posted their writing on Telegram, the students in experimental group received feedback from their peers and finally the teacher. The control group received feedback on paper. Both independent and paired-t test were used to analyze the data. The results revealed that the experimental group using Telegram significantly outperformed the control group (p≥.5). Data were triangulated with focused group interview regarding student perceptions of the feedback received through Telegram. Two themes emerged from focused group interview, usefulness and satisfaction, which will be discussed in the paper. This study may cast a light on usefulness of integrating technology into L2 classes to accelerate learning among today’s technology-oriented generation.
Multitemporal cloud detection and masking using MODIS data

The aims of this study are to investigate the spectral properties of cloud and to carry out cloud detection and masking using MODIS (Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) data. To do this we make use of the spectrally rich satellite data provided by MODIS sensor, which is equipped with 36 bands ranging from visible to thermal wavelengths. Cloud detection and masking were first carried out individually using single date of MODIS data. Multitemporal cloud analysis was later carried out using MODIS data from 24 different dates from 2004 to 2005. The eastern parts of Malaysia were found to have more cloudy days than the western parts, in which consistence with the meteorological observations made by the Malaysian Meteorological Services.

Spatial transcriptomics identifies candidate stromal drivers of benign prostatic hyperplasia

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the nodular proliferation of the prostate transition zone in older men, leading to urinary storage and voiding problems that can be recalcitrant to therapy. Decades ago, John McNeal proposed that BPH originates with the “reawakening” of embryonic inductive activity by adult prostate stroma, which spurs new ductal proliferation and branching morphogenesis. Here, by laser microdissection and transcriptional profiling of the BPH stroma adjacent to hyperplastic branching ducts, we identified secreted factors likely mediating stromal induction of prostate glandular epithelium and coinciding processes. The top stromal factors were insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) and CXC chemokine ligand 13 (CXCL13), which we verified by RNA in situ hybridization to be coexpressed in BPH fibroblasts, along with their cognate receptors (IGF1R and CXCR5) on adjacent epithelium. In contrast, IGF1 but not CXCL13 was expressed in human embryonic prostate stroma. Finally, we demonstrated that IGF1 is necessary for the generation of BPH-1 cell spheroids and patient-derived BPH cell organoids in 3D culture. Our findings partially support historic speculations on the etiology of BPH and provide what we believe to be new molecular targets for rational therapies directed against the underlying processes driving BPH.
Life-cycle Water Footprints Assessment and Prediction of the Tourism Sector in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region

This paper applied the life-cycle water footprint analysis(WFA) method to conduct a comprehensive assessment of tourism-related direct and indirect water consumption under four different tourism scenarios in BeijingTianjin-Hebei region. The results revealed that the tourists' indirect water consumption will greatly exceed their direct water use during their visiting period in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region in 2020. Meanwhile, water use calculated by WFA was much higher than the previous estimations in traditional tourism industry analyses that only considered direct water use by tourists. The findings also indicated the water resources allocation will undergo an enormous pressure if the current trend of rapid development of tourism in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region maintains in the future.Some recommendations are proposed to the sectoral administrations in charge of tourism, urban planning, water resources management and price based on our conclusions.
Clinical characteristics of pituitary hormone deficiency in children: A single centre experience

Background: The clinical presentation of hypopituitarism varies from asymptomatic to circulatory compromise. The late diagnosis may cause significant mortality and morbidity. There is scant data on the clinical profile.Method: A cross-sectional descriptive analysis was carried out on diagnosed children with hypopituitarism at the endocrinology unit of Lady Ridgeway Hospital for Children, Sri Lanka, from 2013-2021. The presence and progression of pituitary hormonal deficiency were ascertained.Results: Out of the total 94 children with hypopituitarism, 52 had congenital hypopituitarism with a median presenting age of 5.86 years (IQR 3-9). Short stature was the commonest presentation (59.6%). Multiple pituitary hormone deficiency (MPHD) was seen in 27 (51.91%). MPHD was associated with the presence of postnatal risk factors (OR 2.036, 95% CI 1.94-3.786) and MRI Imaging abnormalities in hypothalamic-pituitary morphogenesis (OR 1.768, 95% CI 1.087-2.874). 90.4% with GHD, 46.2% with ACTH deficiency, and 40.4% with TSH deficiency had the mean age of presentation 6.54 years, 6.11 years, and 5.56 years respectively. Of the children above 13 years, 57% showed hypogonadism. Hypoplastic anterior pituitary (40.4%) was the commonest MRI abnormality. Out of the 42 children with brain tumours, 25 (59.52%) had craniopharyngioma, and 13 (31%) had Medulloblastoma, while MPHD was seen in 32 (76.2%). Hormone deficiency at the presentation was seen in 57.1%. Conclusion: Comprehensive evaluation and periodic screening are mandatory for the timely diagnosis of MPHD.
Two modes of gene regulation by TFL1 mediate its dual function in flowering time and shoot determinacy of Arabidopsis

ABSTRACT Plant organ primordia develop successively at the shoot apical meristem (SAM). In Arabidopsis, primordia formed early in development differentiate into vegetative leaves, whereas those formed later generate inflorescence branches and flowers. TERMINAL FLOWER 1 (TFL1), a negative regulator of transcription, acts in the SAM to delay flowering and to maintain inflorescence meristem indeterminacy. We used confocal microscopy, time-resolved transcript profiling and reverse genetics to elucidate this dual role of TFL1. We found that TFL1 accumulates dynamically in the SAM reflecting its dual function. Moreover, TFL1 represses two major sets of genes. One set includes genes that promote flowering, expression of which increases earlier in tfl1 mutants. The other set is spatially misexpressed in tfl1 inflorescence meristems. The misexpression of these two gene sets in tfl1 mutants depends upon FD transcription factor, with which TFL1 interacts. Furthermore, the MADS-box gene SEPALLATA 4, which is upregulated in tfl1, contributes both to the floral transition and shoot determinacy defects of tfl1 mutants. Thus, we delineate the dual function of TFL1 in shoot development in terms of its dynamic spatial distribution and different modes of gene repression.
Extended centroid position method in liquid-crystal-based interrogation system for electric-field-modulated Fabry-Perot sensing

A polarized low-coherence interferometer (PLCI) based on a liquid crystal (LC) wedge is designed, and an associated demodulation method encompassing the tunability feature is proposed for tunable, standalone optical sensing. The application of an electric field to the LC material effectively decreases the birefringence value and the related dispersion relation, which in turn enhances the resolution of detection. The effect of the electric field on the demodulation of the cavity length is addressed by the successive determinations of the centroid positions of the PLCI interferograms. Through a comprehensive study of numerical simulations, the effectiveness of the proposed approach is explored relative to the conventional envelope detection methodology. In order to verify this method, an experiment with a Fabry-Perot-based fiber optic displacement sensor is carried out using a 5CB LC wedge-based PLCI setup in the presence of an electric field. The measurement accuracy of the cavity length is found to be 0.74% of full scale, rendering it more precise and robust than the conventional envelope detection method.
Understanding Whistleblowing Intention Among Public Sector Employees in the Northern Region of Malaysia: Does Gender Matter?

The objective of this study is to determine the factors influencing whistleblowing intention among public sector employees. This study utilized the Theory of Prosocial Behavior which includes contextual determinants (policy and procedure, training, responsiveness of management, reporting channel, financial reward, seriousness level of wrongdoing) and individual determinants (knowledge, trust) as independent variables while whistle blowing intention is the dependent variable. Additionally, this study also includes gender as a moderating variable in the relationship between the contextual and individual determinants toward whistleblowing intention. The data was collected from 123 public sector employees in the northern region of Malaysia (Perlis, Kedah, Penang) from various ministries via an online survey questionnaire and analyzed using SmartPLS. This study found that there is a significant relationship between all independent variables and whistleblowing intention, except for the responsiveness of management. Additionally, gender was found to be significant in the relationship between several independent variables and whistleblowing intention.
Fractionation of O18/O16 between Coexisting Calcite and Dolomite

The writers determined $$\delta O^{18}$$ and $$\delta C^{13}$$ of coexisting limestone and dolomite samples from several localities in the upper Mississippi Valley zinc-lead district and found little fractionation in mineral pairs. This is in conflict with the data obtained from Leadville, Colorado, from a higher temperature environment. Until these differences are better understood, $$\Delta_{calicite\_dolomite}$$ should not be used as a substitute for $$\Delta_{calcite-quartz}$$ as a geologic thermometer.
