Profile of Snake Bite Deaths in South India: An Autopsy based Stud

Background: The burden due to the morbidity and mortality of snake bite in India is significantly higher. Itis estimated around 1.2 million snakebite deaths (average 58,000/year) has occurred in India from the year2000 to 2019. However the real burden of snake bite is unknown due to under reporting. This study aims tobring out region specific data on fatal snake bitesResults: The study was conducted at the dep of forensic medicine from 2016 to 2020. A total of 75 cases offatal snake bite cases were autopsied. The number of female cases 39 (52.3) and males were 36 (48.0). Themaximum no 52 (69.4%) cases were reported between the months of April to September. The common timefor snake bite was in the night 40 (53.3%) followed by the daytime 33 (44.0%). The place of incidence wheremost of the bites happened was in and around the homes of the victims 46 (61.3) followed by the workplaces29 (38.7%). The commonest site were the bite mark was noted in the lower limbs 33 (44%) cases. Around 22(23.9%) cases were seen in age groups of 45 to 59 years and 19 (25.3%) cases in 35 to 44 years. The speciesof snake in majority of the cases i.e., 65 (86.7%) was unknown. Around 40 (53.3%) cases of kidney samplesshowed acute tubular followed by congestion.Conclusion: The number of fatal bites were comparatively higher than that of the statistics available. Most ofthe findings of our study was consistent with the similar studies. The species of snake was largely unknownin this study because new snake species like hump nose pit viper can inflict fatal bites and are difficult toidentify. Region specific data on snake bite will reflect the exact volume of snake bites in the country andwould largely help in drafting policies to reduce mortality
Bonding Family Social Capital and Agency Among Native-Born and Immigrant College Women With Low Parental Financial Support

Using in-depth interviews with 23 immigrant and native-born college women who receive little to no financial support from their parents, this study finds that variation in bonding family social capital shapes how college students perceive financial constraints in their past, present, and future, and how they enact their future plans. Among native-born and immigrant women alike, those with high family social capital tied their motivation to family support and centered their own sense of agency. Students with low family social capital aimed to distance themselves from their families of origin and expressed uncertainty about their ability to reach their future goals. By focusing on students facing similar financial constraints, we provide insight into factors that reproduce inequality among disadvantaged students.
Environmental impacts of key metals' supply and low‐carbon technologies are likely to decrease in the future

The environmental benefits of low‐carbon technologies, such as photovoltaic modules, have been under debate because their large‐scale deployment will require a drastic increase in metal production. This is of concern because higher metal demand may induce ore grade decline and can thereby further intensify the environmental footprint of metal supply. To account for this interlinkage known as the “energy‐resource nexus”, energy and metal supply scenarios need to be assessed in conjunction. We investigate the trends of future impacts of metal supplies and low‐carbon technologies, considering both metal and electricity supply scenarios. We develop metal supply scenarios for copper, nickel, zinc, and lead, extending previous work. Our scenarios consider developments such as ore grade decline, energy‐efficiency improvements, and secondary production shares. We also include two future electricity supply scenarios from the IMAGE model using a recently published methodology. Both scenarios are incorporated into the background database of ecoinvent to realize an integrated modeling approach, that is, future metal supply chains make use of future electricity and vice versa. We find that impacts of the modeled metal supplies and low‐carbon technologies may decrease in the future. Key drivers for impact reductions are the electricity transition and increasing secondary production shares. Considering both metal and electricity scenarios has proven valuable because they drive impact reductions in different categories, namely human toxicity (up to −43%) and climate change (up to −63%), respectively. Thus, compensating for lower ore grades and reducing impacts beyond climate change requires both greener electricity and also sustainable metal supply.

The effect of training and education and teacher certification allowances on teachers

Effectiveness training can encourage teacher performance and knowledge management, and soft-skill competence to strengthen the relationship—this study conducted with a quantitative approach. The analysis tool uses SEM-Amos version 23. The population in this study were 18240 teachers in South Sulawesi Province. The sample was determined by accidental technique, with a sampling target of at least 100 people who filled in early. Only 236 teachers filled out the questionnaire until the specified time limit, and it was declared complete. Effectiveness training proved to encourage teacher performance improvements during the COVID-19 pandemic. This empirical evidence answers the researcher's assumptions and, at the same time, adds to the limited reference to the relationship of the conceptual framework built in this study. This study shows that practical training can encourage internal organizational development, especially in improving employees' ability to share and problem-solve to enhance teachers' skills. Keywords: Raining effectiveness, knowledge management, soft-skill competence, teacher, performance, Indonesia
The importance of ethnicity: Are breast cancer polygenic risk scores ready for women who are not of White European origin?

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) for disease risk stratification show great promise for application in general populations, but most are based on data from individuals of White European origin. We assessed two well validated PRS (SNP18, SNP143) in the Predicting‐Risk‐of‐Cancer‐At‐Screening (PROCAS) study in North‐West England for breast cancer prediction based on ethnicity. Overall, 9475 women without breast cancer at study entry, including 645 who subsequently developed invasive breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ provided DNA. All were genotyped for SNP18 and a subset of 1868 controls were genotyped for SNP143. For White Europeans both PRS discriminated well between individuals with and without cancer. For n = 395 Black (n = 112), Asian (n = 119), mixed (n = 44) or Jewish (n = 120) women without cancer both PRS overestimated breast cancer risk, being most marked for women of Black and Jewish origin (P < .001). SNP143 resulted in a potential mean 40% breast cancer risk overestimation in the combined group of non‐White/non‐European origin. SNP‐PRS that has been normalized based on White European ethnicity for breast cancer should not be used to predict risk in women of other ethnicities. There is an urgent need to develop PRS specific for other ethnicities, in order to widen access of this technology.
Dying in Hospital with Dementia and Pneumonia: A Nationwide Study Using Death Certificate Data

Background: For people with dementia dying from pneumonia, hospitalization at the end of life may be of little benefit and result in unfavourable outcomes such as hospital death. Objective: The aim of this study is to estimate the incidence of and factors associated with hospital death in people with dementia dying from pneumonia. Methods: We used death certificate data of all deaths in Belgium in 2008 (n = 101,685) to examine characteristics of deaths of people with dementia dying from pneumonia. Information about the urbanization level of the place of residence and the availability of hospital beds, residential (without continuous skilled nursing) and skilled nursing beds in long-term care settings was linked through the zip code of the place of residence. Results: Of people with dementia dying from pneumonia (n = 1,420), 47.2% died in hospital. Of those living in long-term care settings, 25.6% died in hospital. For people living in their own home, hospital death was more likely for those who were single (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 2.83, 95% CI 1.30-6.16) and living in strongly urbanized areas (AOR 2.48, 95% CI 1.47-4.18). For those living in long-term care settings, hospital death was more likely in regions with higher availability of residential beds (without continuous skilled nursing) in long-term care settings (AOR per unit 1.02, 95% CI 1.01-1.03). Conclusion: Almost half of all those with dementia dying from pneumonia and a quarter of those living in long-term care settings died in a hospital. These results suggest shortcomings in the Belgian healthcare system in preventing potentially avoidable terminal hospitalizations in a vulnerable population.
RTSfM: Real-Time Structure From Motion for Mosaicing and DSM Mapping of Sequential Aerial Images With Low Overlap

Inspired by simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) style workflow, this article presented an online sequential structure from motion (SfM) solution for high-frequency video and large baseline high-resolution aerial images with high efficiency and novel precision. First, as traditional SLAM systems are not good in processing low overlap images, based on our novel hierarchical feature matching paradigm with multihomography and BoW, we proposed a robust tracking method where the relative pose and its scale are estimated separately followed by a joint optimization by considering both perspective-n-point (PnP) and epipolar constraints. Second, to further optimize the camera poses for the sparse map and dense pointcloud reconstruction, we provided a graph-based optimization with reprojection and GPS constraints, which make the camera trajectory and map georeferenced. We also incrementally generated the dense point cloud in real time from keyframes after local mapping optimization. Finally, we use a publicly available aerial image dataset with sequences of different environments, to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, meanwhile, the robust performance of our solution is demonstrated with applications of high-quality aerial images mosaic and digital surface model (DSM) reconstruction in real time. Compared with the state-of-the-art SLAM and traditional SfM methods, the presented system can output large-scale high-quality ortho-mosaic and DSM in real time with the low computational cost.
Exploration of Welsh English Pre-Aspiration: How Wide-Spread is it?

This study investigates how widespread pre-aspiration and local breathiness are in English spoken in Wales, by speakers identifying as Welsh. While the main purpose is to establish whether the phenomenon is generally present in Welsh English, the data also enables us to explore whether pre-aspiration might be conditioned by sex/gender, age, and the ability to speak Welsh. An acoustic corpus of 45 speakers producing word-final plosives and fricatives is analysed. Pre-aspiration and local breathiness are produced by all speakers, representing 32 towns and 16 areas included in the analyses. Pre-aspiration and breathiness are more frequent and longer in L1 and L2 Welsh speakers than those who do not speak Welsh at all. In general, no statistically significant sex and age effects emerge. In addition, a gradient allophony between pre-aspiration and glottalisation is reported for all speakers in the plosive context: the more frequently they glottalise, the less frequent the pre-aspiration. In fricatives, most speakers do not glottalise. Regarding those who do, 1. some display no relationship between pre-aspiration and glottalisation, and 2. a minority display either an indication of gradient allophony between the two, or 3. a positive correlation.
Analysis of the educational needs of nurses in the neonatal intensive care unit for developmental supportive care

Purpose: This study used a descriptive investigative design to identify educational needs for developmental supportive care for the purpose of establishing a developmental supportive care education program for nurses in neonatal intensive care units. Methods: A survey was conducted on 93 nurses working in neonatal intensive care units located in a metropolitan area, and the collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired t-test with the SPSS 25.0 program. For the purpose of analyzing educational needs, we further analyzed data through an importance-performance analysis (IPA) and the Borich needs assessment and the locus for focus models. Results: The average importance of the developmental supportive care of nurses in neonatal intensive care units was 3.74±0.78 out of 5, and the average performance was 3.46±0.81 out of 5. A t-test on the difference between the IPA and Borich needs assessment showed the highest educational need in the categories of ‘individualized care’, and ‘I serve on the Developmental Care Committee at my institution’. In addition, according to the results of deriving the priorities of educational needs using the Borich needs assessment and the locus for focus model, the highest priority was ‘I provide appropriate pain management when noxious procedures are necessary’. Conclusion: These findings can be used as basic data to design a developmental supportive care program suitable for nurses in neonatal intensive care units to meet the educational needs for developmental supportive care.
Two-Dimensional Numerical Simulation of Detonation Transition with Multi-Step Reaction Model: Effects of Obstacle Height

ABSTRACT The numerical simulations on DDT (Deflagration-to-Detonation Transition) in the two-dimensional channel with the repeated obstacles using multi-step reaction model are performed for various BR values (Blockage Ratio: the value obtained by dividing the height of the obstacles by the channel width). This research intends to find out more detailed mechanisms of the detonation transition in channels with obstacles in order to understand deeply the physical phenomena such as shock wave, turbulent flame, and local explosion caused by self-ignition. In the channel with repeated obstacles, filled with a stoichiometric premix gas of hydrogen/oxygen a small energy source near the left end of the channel is located as an initial ignition source. As a result, for BR = 0.3 and 0.45, the deflagration transits to detonation, and the flame is largely disturbed. Then the flame is accelerated by the repeated local explosions, the compression and expansion in the flow path, as well as strengthened shock wave. It is found that the onset of DDT has a different dependence on the height of obstacles. Also, even when local explosions occur, the detonation transition can fail, and for BR = 0.45 the detonation transition is delayed comparing with BR = 0.3 due to obstacles height.
A perfect match? Exploring the interplay between public service motivation and conscientiousness in predicting public organizational outcomes

Abstract How may we understand the relationships between public service motivation (PSM), personality traits, and public organizational outcomes? Do organizational outcomes relate to interaction associations between PSM and personality traits? Using a mix of survey data and administrative data from a sample of nursing home care workers in Denmark (n = 427), this article explores the interplay between PSM and the personality trait of conscientiousness in relation to two organizational outcomes: performance and short-run absenteeism. We find that PSM is associated with higher performance and less absenteeism and that conscientiousness is a significant moderator of both relationships—although in distinct ways. The association between PSM and less absenteeism is greater at higher levels of conscientiousness. In contrast, the positive association between PSM and performance attenuates to zero at high levels of conscientiousness.
Digital storytelling outcomes, emotions, grit, and perceptions among EFL middle school learners: robot-assisted versus PowerPoint-assisted presentations

Abstract While recent years have witnessed increasing attention to technology-enhanced language learning, investigation regarding how technologies facilitate digital storytelling outcomes among middle school students in English-as-a-foreign-language contexts remains insufficiently explored. Studies concerning the effects of different presentation modes such as anthropomorphized robots versus PowerPoint on digital storytelling outcomes have been insufficient, and specific probes into affective domains such as emotion, grit, and perceptions have been even scarcer. The interplay between these issues, therefore, has yet to be validated. This mixed-methods study, accordingly, addresses these concerns by examining not only the relationship among digital storytelling outcomes, emotions, and grit in different presentation modes (Robot vs. PowerPoint), but also student perceptions. Focusing on 52 ninth-grade middle school students from a middle school in central Taiwan, the results from diverse data sources (pre-/post-tests, an questionnaire about emotions, a grit survey, a perception survey, and reflective journals) identified the benefits of both presentation modes. Nonetheless, the robot-assisted mode was more advantageous in making the learners grittier and led to higher storytelling outcomes as well as more positive affect. Storytelling outcomes were strongly and positively correlated with grit, including perseverance of effort and consistency in interests. Nonetheless, perseverance of effort was the best predictor of storytelling outcomes in the experimental group, suggesting higher perseverance of effort for better storytelling outcomes. In terms of student perceptions, the robot-assisted group using Kebbi Air was more positive about the overall learning experience, as demonstrated by higher responses to motivation, effectiveness, engagement, and satisfaction.
Pattern of Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior in Early Childhood

The research aimed to examine the prevalence and comparisons between physical activity and sedentary behavior of early-year children in preschool. The samples were 55 early-year children under five years old whose parents were willing to become participants voluntarily. Considering that the children have a plasticity characteristic, it is possible to form movement and healthy behavior from this early stage. Twenty-four-hour movement behaviors (physical activity, sedentary time, and sleep) were assessed using the ActiGraph TM accelerometer. Compared to early childhood children in a rural area, the results showed that early childhood children in urban areas were more physically active and spent less time on sedentary behavior (p < 0.05). Overall, there were no physical activities or sedentary behavior differences based on gender (p > 0.05). Meanwhile, male children in the rural area spent less physical activity and were more sedentary than male children in the urban area (p < 0.05). There was no difference in both physical activity and sedentary behavior (p > 0.05). These findings suggest that interventions aiming to improve physical activity and reduce sedentary behavior in early childhood may be more effective by considering the residential location.
Molecular phylogeny and evolution of Calaphidinae (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

Calaphidinae is the second‐largest subfamily in the family Aphididae. Despite their species diversity and some taxonomic controversy, no phylogenetic studies have been conducted on them thus far. Herein, we report the first molecular phylogeny of Calaphidinae and two related lineages, Phyllaphidinae and Saltusaphidinae, based on five genes (3418 bp) for 126 taxa. Maximum parsimony, maximum‐likelihood and Bayesian inference phylogenetic analyses were performed on the multilocus dataset. Divergence time estimation, biogeographical reconstruction, ancestral host plant reconstruction and PhyloType analyses were performed to identify evolutionary trends in Calaphidinae. Our phylogenetic results lead to several conclusions: Phyllaphidinae is a sister group to Calaphidinae s.l. ; Calaphidinae is paraphyletic with respect to the former “Saltusaphidinae”; the ingroup clade was subdivided into nine newly recognized lineages; and three subtribes of Calaphidinae (Monaphidina, Calaphdina and Panaphidina) and many genera were not recovered as monophyletic. A new classification is proposed with eight tribal divisions that reflect our phylogenetic results, including three new tribes (Pterocallidini trib.n., Pseudochromaphidini trib.n. and Shivaphidini trib.n.) and three new statuses (Saltusaphidini stat.n., Therioaphidini stat.n. and Myzocallidini stat.n.). The ancestral reconstruction results imply that the ingroup taxa’s common ancestor originated in the Eastern Palaearctic and might have fed on Fagaceae in the Late Cretaceous. Later, multiple host shifts and an expanding geographical distribution led to the current species diversity of Calaphidinae. Our reconstructions suggest that species diversification cannot solely be explained by speciation via host shifts and that geographical isolation probably also played a key role. Our results provide new insight into the natural classification and history of the host plant associations and biogeography of Calaphidinae s.l.
Miocene extension and magma generation in the Apuseni Mts. (western Romania): a review

ABSTRACT The Apuseni Mts. is a key area to study the interplay between intra-continental extensional tectonics, sedimentation, and magmatism. These events occurred from ~14.5 to 7 Ma, covering the collision of the Tisza-Dacia mega-unit with the East European Platform at ~11 Ma and formation of a thin-skinned fold-thrust belt in the East Carpathians. The Zărand-Brad-Zlatna basin (~120 km in length) is the main graben system associated with the magmatic activity. To its south, it is bounded by two younger (<12 Ma) sub-basins: Caraci and Săcărâmb both hosting active magmatism. To the north-east, the smaller Roşia Montană–Baia de Arieş–Bucium sub-basin and, to the south-east, the Deva sub-basin are also associated with magmatism. Several andesite intrusions are also known in the northernmost Apuseni Mts. at Moigrad. Volcanism from ~14.5 to ~12 Ma displays a typical calc-alkaline affinity with high 208Pb/204Pb (38.6–38.8) and 207Pb/204Pb (15.65–15.67), moderate to high 87Sr/86Sr (0.7047–0.7085) and low to high δ18Owr (>7‰) values. The younger igneous rocks (<12 Ma) show high Sr/Y and a variable but significant enrichment in LILE up to ~7 Ma, coupled with low 87Sr/86Sr (0.7040–0.7045), low 208Pb/204Pb (38.2–38.6) and 207Pb/204Pb (15.59–15.63), and low δ18O (5.5–5.7‰). The geodynamic evolution of the area started as regional transtensional with rotational tectonics generating horst and graben structures and ended with a transpressional event. This setting provided the conditions for the formation of a large underplated magma chamber at the crust – mantle boundary (MASH zone), in response to hot upwelling convective asthenosphere. Melting of the lower crust and mixing with mantle melts may have played an important part in the magmatic evolution. The spatial and temporal changes in composition were generated in magma at the crust – mantle boundary, with different crustal thicknesses. Further crustal assimilation and minor fractional crystallization in crustal magma chambers were characteristic for each region.
