Working with refugee young people: A nurse's perspective

Objective: To improve the health outcome of young people from a refugee background through sharing nursing experiences and processes that can be used to effectively address young people's health related problems. Setting: Primary Health Care. Subjects: Newly arrived young people between the ages of 12-24 years from a refugee background. Primary argument: There is evidence that a young person's personal responses to history of torture and trauma, displacement, loss and interruption to family life; intertwined with adolescent uncertainty may lead to particular challenges. All young people require nurses and clinicians with the knowledge and skills to address their health problems. However this particularly vulnerable group also require health professionals that can approach these young people and their families in a manner that is culturally and professionally acceptable. This paper seeks to share some of the experiences gained while working with adolescents and youths from refugee backgrounds including common health issues raised by young people, their families and communities. In addition it will suggest some processes that are being used to address health issues. This includes setting up a health initiative that seeks to address health issues in a familiar supportive environment that is acceptable to the young people their families and communities. Conclusion: Refugee young people are a special group of people with different needs when compared to adults from a refugee background. It is very important for nurses to identify these needs and know how to identify the problems young people from a refugee background face. As clinicians it is very important to be aware of the issues facing refugee young people and the best way to approach young people so they feel welcome. Working with refugee young people requires patience and relationship building. It is very important to treat refugee young people as individuals and to involve the young people and their families in the treatment and problem solving as much as possible in order to get the best result.
The effect of a team sport-specific heat acclimation protocol on plasma volume in elite female soccer players

ABSTRACT Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of a short-term, soccer-specific, isothermic heat acclimation (HA) protocol on plasma volume (PV) expansion in international female soccer players. Subjects: Eighteen non-HA players trained for 5 days in the heat (34.8 ± 0.2°C; 36.6%rh). Methods: Heart rate (HR), core temperature (Tc), sweat rate (SR) and perceptual ratings were recorded during all sessions, with pre- and post-HA measurements of PV and thermoneutral performance (30–15 Intermittent Fitness Test (IFT) completed at 20°C). Results: Session average time spent at target Tc (~38.5°C) was 43 ± 21min across the 5 days. Plasma volume showed a typical robust, but variable, increase (Standardized effect; SE = 0.51; 90% CL: [0.31, 0.70]) pre-to-post HA by 9.5% (CL: [5.8, 13.4]). Inferential statistics showed a 99% chance of very likely positive PV change. The regression model demonstrated that average percentage of HRmax from 20 to 90 min of the workouts as well as total 5-day heat load best predicted the change in PV (R2 = 0.45). There was a small meaningful change post-HA in the 30–15 IFT (SE = 0.50; CL: [−0.12, 1.12]). Conclusions: The implementation of a unique short-term HA circuit specific to soccer was successful at inducing heat-specific physiological adaptations and enhancing soccer-specific performance in thermoneutral conditions.
The Information Role of Comment Letters: Evidence from Institutional Investors’ Informed Trading

Abstract We use a unique data set of 6,954 firm-year observations to investigate the information content of comment letters released by the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (SZSE). The information role appears to be negatively associated with institutional investors’ informed trading. The comment letters, which increase more media coverage, decrease the institutional investors’ informed trading. Our results are robust across alternative measures and the propensity score matching (PSM) method. The negative relationship is more pronounced in firms with low analysts’ coverage, non-big 4 auditors, non-SOEs, and transient institutional investors. Our results suggest that comment letters are able to decrease information asymmetry and the stock exchange can play an active regulatory role to improve the stock market.
Comparing Machine Learning Approaches for Predicting Spatially Explicit Life Cycle Global Warming and Eutrophication Impacts from Corn Production

Agriculture ranks as one of the top contributors to global warming and nutrient pollution. Quantifying life cycle environmental impacts from agricultural production serves as a scientific foundation for forming effective remediation strategies. However, methods capable of accurately and efficiently calculating spatially explicit life cycle global warming (GW) and eutrophication (EU) impacts at the county scale over a geographic region are lacking. The objective of this study was to determine the most efficient and accurate model for estimating spatially explicit life cycle GW and EU impacts at the county scale, with corn production in the U.S.’s Midwest region as a case study. This study compared the predictive accuracies and efficiencies of five distinct supervised machine learning (ML) algorithms, testing various sample sizes and feature selections. The results indicated that the gradient boosting regression tree model built with approximately 4000 records of monthly weather features yielded the highest predictive accuracy with cross-validation (CV) values of 0.8 for the life cycle GW impacts. The gradient boosting regression tree model built with nearly 6000 records of monthly weather features showed the highest predictive accuracy with CV values of 0.87 for the life cycle EU impacts based on all modeling scenarios. Moreover, predictive accuracy was improved at the cost of simulation time. The gradient boosting regression tree model required the longest training time. ML algorithms demonstrated to be one million times faster than the traditional process-based model with high predictive accuracy. This indicates that ML can serve as an alternative surrogate of process-based models to estimate life-cycle environmental impacts, capturing large geographic areas and timeframes.
Cognitive impairment and neuronal damage in Alzheimer's disease are malleable: occupational chlorpyrifos exposure exacerbates phenotypes, while the neuroprotective compound P7C3 ameliorates effects in a transgenic model of Alzheimer's disease.

Gene-environment interactions greatly influence every known disease. For example, the etiology underlying Alzheimer’s disease, the most common form of neurodegeneration worldwide, involves a complex interaction between genes, irregular physiological processes, and environmental factors. Exposure to organophosphate pesticides has been linked to Alzheimer’s disease through epidemiological evidence, but a causal link has yet to be established. Thus, we examined this gene-environment interaction using established rodent models to better understand underlying mechanisms. We exposed a rat transgenic model of Alzheimer’s disease (TgF344-AD) to an occupational organophosphate exposure paradigm and longitudinally analyzed ADrelated behaviors and pathology. TgF344-AD rats exposed to chlorpyrifos, a commonly applied organophosphate insecticide, exhibited recurrent cognitive deficits at 6, 15, and 24 months, with an intermittent recovery period at 9 and 12 months of age. Furthermore, these behavioral deficits were sex-dependent, with significant impairments observed in
Analysis of Circularly Polarized CTS Arrays

This article presents an efficient analysis method for a novel continuous transverse stub (CTS) antenna. As opposed to state-of-the-art CTS antenna designs, the proposed architecture achieves circular polarization using a single CTS array and without any polarization converter. The structure consists of long radiating slots/stubs fed by over-moded parallel-plate waveguides. More precisely, the transverse electromagnetic (TEM) mode and the first transverse electric (TE1) mode of the feeding waveguides are used to generate a circularly polarized field. The array is analyzed using a spectral mode-matching method. First, the active reflection coefficient of the infinite array is derived in closed form. A windowing approach is then adopted to compute the radiation patterns of finite-size arrays. Numerical results obtained with this method are in excellent agreement with full-wave simulations, carried out with a commercial software. The performance of this class of CTS antennas has been investigated using the developed model. It is theoretically demonstrated that the proposed array can be designed to attain an axial ratio (AR) lower than 3 dB over a 52.9% relative bandwidth at broadside. Furthermore, the active input reflection coefficient is lower than −10 dB over a 40.8% relative bandwidth, when the array steers its main beam at $\theta _{0}=45^\circ $ . This solution is an attractive candidate for next generation satellite communication terminals.
L2 Learners’ Perceptions of Using L1 in EFL Classrooms / İngilizce Öğrenenlerin Dil Sınıflarında Ana Dil Kullanımına İlişkin Algıları

Most foreign or second (L2) language teaching happens in classrooms where teachers and learners share the same first language (L1), and there has been a long-standing controversy over using L1 in language teaching classrooms. Thus, the present study sought to explore English learners’ perceptions about using their L1 in English as a foreign language (EFL) classrooms. The study further aimed to investigate whether English proficiency level had any effect on learners’ preferences of using L1 in English classrooms. A total of 75 EFL learners enrolled in an English preparatory program at a foundation university in Ankara voluntarily participated in the study. Data were collected using a questionnaire to determine participants’ views on using their L1 in English classes. The results revealed that EFL learners supported the use of English as the only medium of instruction in EFL classrooms and English proficiency level had an effect on learners’ preferences of using L1. Findings also indicated that learners with a low level of English proficiency had more positive opinions about using L1 in EFL classrooms as opposed to learners with a high level of English proficiency. On the other hand, regardless of the proficiency level, all participants agreed that they might use their L1 in the class if they really needed to do so. Another significant finding of the study was that learners’ willingness to use L1 in the classroom decreased as their English proficiency level increased. In line with these findings, further recommendations were proposed regarding the place of L1 in EFL classrooms.
Integrating pharmacogenomics education in a pharmacy program and its effect on student perceptions of their abilities and roles in its use

Objective. To assess whether a required Principles in Genetics and Pharmacogenomics course in the first year, and integration into subsequent courses affected pharmacy students' perceptions of pharmacogenomics.Methods. A survey was distributed to Professional Year (PY) 1 students during the first and last weeks of the course from 2014 to 2016. A follow up survey was distributed to PY2, PY3, and PY4 students.Results. Essentially all respondents consistently agreed that pharmacogenomics is clinically relevant. After the course, PY1 students are more comfortable in their knowledge and role in the application of pharmacogenomics. Although their comfort reverts to some degree, PY2-PY4 students believe that they should be able to apply pharmacogenomics clinically. Most PY2-PY4 students indicate that later courses review pharmacogenomics.Conclusions. A required course in genetics and pharmacogenomics can promote a positive perception of the use of genetic information clinically. Inclusion of pharmacogenomic conc.
Enhanced remediation of Cr6+ in bacterial‐assisted floating wetlands

Hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) is reported to have negative effects on fauna and flora. The present study establishes plant‐bacterial synergism in floating wetlands (FWs) for the maximum removal of Cr6+ from the contaminated water. A common wetland plant, Brachiaria mutica (para grass), was planted in combination with three Cr‐resistant rhizo‐ and endophytic bacteria. Results indicated that FWs vegetated with B. mutica showed the potential to remove Cr (53%) from water and their efficacy was significantly enhanced by bacterial inoculation (88%). The inoculated bacteria were able to colonize the plant interior successfully, that is, roots and shoots. The un‐vegetated control tanks, however, showed the least bacterial persistence in the water. The perceptible phytotoxicity symptoms on B. mutica were only observed for the treatments without bacterial inoculation. The study suggests that B. mutica could be an effective choice as a wetland macrophyte to establish a partnership with the Cr‐resistant bacteria for improved remediation of Cr6+ contamination.
Effect of Aged Black Garlic on Reproductive Toxicity induced by Tacrolimus in Male Rats : Histological and Immunohistochemical studies

Background : Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressant drug which used after organ transplantation to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. Tacrolimus causes nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and diabetogenicity. Aged black garlic (ABG) is garlic-processed product and it was found to show more antioxidant activity than fresh garlic. Materials and methods: Four groups of rats were used. Group1: control, Group 2: orally given aged black garlic, Group 3: administrated orally by Tacrolimus, Group 4: treated with ABG and Tac. Histological, morphometric, immunohistochemical and biochemical alterations, were investigated in testicular tissue and serum. Results : Tacrolimus induced histological alteration in testicular tissue as , blood vessels congestions, vaculation , and degeneration. Moreover, diameter and epithelial height of seminiferous tubules was decreased significantly. Tacrolimus decreased expression of PCNA and increased BCL-2 expression. Testosterone, progesterone and LH levels were reduced in serum. Tacrolimus decreased the oxidative statues in testicular tissue. Treating rats with ABG and tacrolimus ameliorated all histopathological and toxicological changes induced by Tac, testicular tissue architecture returned to normal status, a significant increase in tubular diameter and in germinal epithelia was recorded. Moreover, an increase in the expression of PCNA and decrease in the expression of Bcl-2 were observed. ABG increased testosterone, progesterone and LH hormones levels in serum , and antioxidant enzymes in testicular tissues. On the other hand, MDA levels were significantly decreased. Conclusion: Tacrolimus caused pathological alterations in testes of rats while ABG ameliorated these alterations.
CENÁRIOS HIDROCLIMÁTICOS FUTUROS (2011-2040) PARA A REPRESA DE PARAIBUNA, SP, BRASIL: SUBSÍDIOS PARA A TRANSPOSIÇÃO ENTRE BACIAS HIDROGRÁFICAS

A crise hídrica em São Paulo nos anos de 2014-2015 gerou muitos conflitos pelo uso da água, visto que os totais de precipitação abaixo da normal climatológica impactaram diretamente os níveis dos reservatórios que abastecem a região. Neste contexto, a transposição das águas da bacia hidrográfica do rio Paraíba do Sul para o Sistema Cantareira, que abastece a Região Metropolitana de São Paulo foi proposta pelas autoridades para mitigar os impacto desta crise e abastecer sua população, sendo necessário analisar se a transposição proposta atenderá à sua demanda. Para investigar as condições futuras de quantidade de água da represa de Paraibuna, foram utilizados dados de simulação climática do modelo atmosférico global HadCM3/Eta, considerando o cenário SRES A1B do IPCC, para os períodos passado (1961-1990) e futuro (2011-2040). Os resultados estimam que até 2040 aumentará a demanda em 123% pelas águas da bacia hidrográfica da rio Paraíba do Sul, e em apenas 40% dos anos poderá ocorrer a transferência de água entre as bacias hidrográficas, sendo que na década de 2030 apenas em três anos esta transposição será viável. Isto demonstra a baixa efetividade da proposta e coloca em evidência a solução encontrada para a crise de abastecimento de São Paulo.
Trade Tariffs and Selected Macroeconomic Indicators of Performance in Nigeria, 1980 – 2018

this study was undertaken to examine the impact of trade tariffs on selectedmacroeconomic variables in Nigeria, 1980-2018. The researcher used three models, three dependent and three independent variables to determine the extent of this impact. Secondary data time series obtained from the CBN statistical bulletins was used. The variables considered were customs duty, balance of payments, gross domestic products (GDP), value added tax (VAT), petroleum income tax (PIT), and unemployment (UNEM) of Nigeria over the period. OLS regression methodology using the ARDL was employed as estimation technique at 5% level of significance. ADF was used to estimate the unit root tests while bounds test for co-integration analysis was used to estimate the long-run relation of the variables. Error Correction Mechanism was used to correct the short term errors of the analysis. It was shown that while some of the variables have positive and significant effects on the dependent variables, other do not. It was, therefore recommended that government authorities must properly target tariffs, value added tax (VAT) and petroleum income tax (PIT) to achieve their aims and not to indiscriminately manipulate them for no justifiable reasons.
An unusual complication of a long-acting injectable antipsychotic: deep venous thrombosis caused by olanzapine pamoate

ABSTRACT Antipsychotic drugs are widely used in psychiatry and are associated with an increased risk of adverse effects such as venous thromboembolism. Olanzapine pamoate is a long-acting injectable form of the second-generation antipsychotic agent. It is used especially in schizophrenia patients who are nonadherent to their prescription due to various reasons. Since the introduction of this newer depot form of olanzapine, it became more commonly prescribed and nearly replaced the conventional oral agent. Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a severe, life-threatening condition which is somehow mostly underestimated or ignored by the psychiatrists. Although the risk of DVT due to antipsychotic drug therapy has been mentioned in various studies, the relationship with olanzapine pamoate was not referred to in the available literature. Here, a DVT after the use of olanzapine pamoate was introduced.
Household Knowledge and Perceptions on Disposal Practices of Unused Medicines in Kenya

Medicines constitute a key factor in all health care delivery systems and are now said to contribute highly towards many households’ recurrent expenditure. As access to medicines increase, bulks of medicines become unused and are kept at home. This has resulted into accumulation of unused medicines at home mainly due to lack of adequate knowledge on procedures for their safe disposal – which potentially can expose households to risks related to diversion, accidental overdose and use by children. An understanding of people’s knowledge and perceptions on their disposal patterns therefore becomes fundamental in tackling this issue. It is against this backdrop that this study intended not only to bridge the knowledge gap in this discipline, but also to explore households’ perceptions and practices of disposal patterns of unused medicines in Nairobi City – the capital of Kenya. The study found out that household’s knowledge on disposal practices of unused medicines is relatively weak attributed to by lack of public outreach and awareness campaigns, laxity on the side of medical and healthcare professionals to provide disposal guidance at hospitals and pharmacies, unclear disposal instructions on medicines packages and negligence to read the disposal instructions.
