Reducing the discussion divide by digital questionnaires in healthcare settings: Disruptive innovation for HIV testing and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) screening.

BACKGROUND Healthcare provider assessment of patient sexual behavior and substance use is essential for determining appropriate prevention interventions-including HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)-for sexual minority men (SMM). We sought to explore acceptability and utility of using electronic surveys to conduct health behavior assessments in clinical settings among SMM. METHODS Among a U.S. nationwide sample of SMM (n=4187; mean age = 38.3 years; 60% White; 82% HIV-negative), we examined associations of demographics, recruitment venue, sexual behavior characteristics, and recent substance use with participants' comfort communicating verbally and via electronic survey with a healthcare provider about sexual and substance use behavior. RESULTS On average, SMM had greater comfort communicating via electronic survey vs. verbally. In our fully-adjusted analysis, preference favoring electronic surveys more strongly than verbal communication differed by age (β=-0.07, p≤0.001). SMM with a Bachelor's degree or more (β=0.04, p<0.05), those recruited from non-clinical settings (β=0.06, p≤0.001), and those without primary care providers (β=0.04, p<0.05) favored electronic surveys more strongly in the fully-adjusted multivariable model. SMM who reported any recent casual sex partners (β=0.05, p<0.01), those never tested for HIV (β=0.03, p<0.05), and HIV-negative/unknown men not on PrEP (compared to PrEP users; β=0.09, p≤0.001) also favored electronic surveys in the fully-adjusted model. CONCLUSIONS Reducing communication barriers by incorporating electronic surveys into patient assessments could help identify HIV testing and PrEP needs for SMM most susceptible to HIV acquisition. Nonetheless, no one screening strategy is likely to work for a vast majority of SMM and multiple approaches are needed.
Re-examining the Effect of Volatility Persistence on Nigerian Stock Market Returns: Mean-Revert Garch Approach

The investment decision in the Nigerian stock is based on the level of volatility of the market. However, the volatility persistence of stock returns in the Nigerian market has negatively affects the participation of investors in the market. This study re-examined the effect of persistent volatility on the prices of the stocks in the Nigerian market between 2008 and 2018. With the use of ARCH and GARCH estimations, the study revealed three distributional assumptions with the co-efficients as (0.897, 0.939 and 0.956) revealing that the returns exhibit high volatility persistence at different selection criterion models. It concludes therefore, that the Nigerian stock market exhibits high volatility persistence. Hence, the study recommends that the regulators in the Nigerian stock market should model the regulatory framework guiding the operations in line with emerging markets with less volatile stock returns.
Nursing Scientific Production on Teenage Pregnancy: An Integrative Review

Produccion cientifica de Enfermeria acerca del embarazo en la adolescencia: revision integradora Producao cientifica de Enfermagem sobre a gravidez na adolescencia: revisao integrativa Objective: To identify, in the national and international scientific literature, the evidence produced by Nursing that provides subsidies to prevent teenage pregnancy. Material and method: An integrative literature review study, based on papers available in the PubMed, BVS, Scopus and Web of Science metabases, and in the Lilacs and BDEnf databases, in Portuguese, English and Spanish languages, published from January 2013 to March 2020. Results: According to the inclusion criteria, 13 articles were selected. The findings are presented in the categories “lower socio-economic conditions”, “knowledge, attitudes and cultural aspects” and “sexual education and specialized services”. Conclusions: Teenage pregnancy is strongly associated with poverty and other socio-economic issues. Gender relations, communication about sex education in the family and other cultural aspects were found in the discussions, which indicates their impact on this phenomenon. Interventions involving sex education are shown as an alternative to cope. The presence of the nurse at the places that assist or concentrate adolescents can be a great element to reduce pregnancy rates in this phase.

Reconstructing historical shifts in suitable habitat of Sceloporus lineages using phylogenetic niche modelling

We tested whether we could detect geographical shifts in modelled‐suitable habitat. We aim to enhance phylogenetic niche models of past suitable habitats for Sceloporus lineages by integrating modern and fossil occurrences with ecological and phylogenetic comparative modelling methods. Specifically, we hypothesized that our integrated approach is sensitive enough to detect geographical shifts in suitable habitat between lineages and through evolutionary time.
High-Resolution Electrophysiological Assessment of Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes

The goal of the present report was to establish a new in vitro model for the study of impulse propagation in human cardiac tissue. By using the human embryonic stem cell differentiating system, spontaneously contracting areas were generated in three-dimensional differentiating cell aggregates (embryoid bodies). Morphological analysis revealed an isotropic tissue of early-stage cardiac phenotype. Gap junctions, assessed by immunostaining of connexin43 and connexin45, were distributed along the cell borders. High-resolution activation maps demonstrated the presence of a functional syncytium with stable focal activation and conduction properties. Conduction was significantly slower in narrow bands of contracting tissue compared with broad cardiomyocyte regions. Establishment of this unique in vitro human model may be used for the assessment of long-term structure-function relationships, for pharmacological studies, for tissue engineering, and may permit the study of genetically modified cardiomyocytes.
Exploring Causal Factors of Spawning Stock Mortality in a Riverine Striped Bass Population

—The recovery of the Atlantic Striped Bass Morone saxatilis stock in the 1990s is an important example of effective natural resources management. Implementation of Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC) harvest regulations reduced mortality, protected older and more fecund females, and contributed to the formation of dominant year-classes in the 1980s and 1990s. However, Striped Bass stocks south of Albemarle Sound, NC are not subject to ASMFC management plans, and many populations have failed to attain recovery goals. Catch-curve analyses indicate the Neuse River Striped Bass population continues to experience similar spawning stock exploitation rates as those implicated in the decline of the Atlantic Migratory and the Albemarle Sound/Roanoke River stocks in the 1970s. From 1994–2015, Striped Bass instantaneous fishing mortality in the Neuse River ranged 0.12–0.84 and exceeded the overfishing threshold in 12 of 22 years. A global linear model using environmental and exploitation factors accounted for 55% of the variability in spawning stock discrete annual mortality. An informationtheoretic approach was used to elucidate the best linear model predicting discrete annual mortality. The best model included previous-year gill net effort and same-year commercial harvest (ωi = 0.64, R2 = 0.50). Model-averaged coefficients for gill net effort and commercial harvest suggest total exploitation impacts that are congruent with other studies of Neuse River Striped Bass. Results indicate that reducing exploitation to target levels will require substantial reductions in gill net effort in areas of the Neuse River where Striped Bass occur. Reducing exploitation may increase spawning stock biomass and advance the age structure of spawning females, conferring an increased likelihood of successful recruitment and production of dominant year-classes during periods of favorable environmental conditions.
Use Forests or Lose Them? Regulated Timber Extraction and Tree Cover Loss in Mexico

A growing set of researchers and policy makers argue, somewhat counterintuitively, that regulated timber extraction can help conserve forests in developing countries by discouraging illegal logging and land-use change. However, rigorous tests of that hypothesis are rare. We use matched difference-in-differences models to measure the net effect on tree cover loss of awarding timber extraction permits to Mexican communal land-holding organizations. Our findings suggest that permits do not have large systematic effects on tree cover loss. We are able to discern statistically significant effects only in select subgroups of forest management units, not in our national sample. Moreover, subgroup effects are relatively modest and vary in sign. Subgroups in which permits have discernible effects are defined by, among other things, levels of privation and the opportunity costs of retaining forest cover—results that suggest forest governance and the demand for cleared land moderate permits’ effects.
Effect of Demonstration on Adoption of Udder Health Management Practices by Dairy Women

India has emerged as the largest producer of milk with 20.17 percent share in total milk production in the world and also the largest population of milch animals in the world (APEDA, 2018). Inspite of this, our livestock farmers seems to missing out on the issues like quality milk production which would increase our share in export of dairy products. The non-adoption of udder health management practices might be because of their lack of practical exposure and awareness about global market and not knowing the importance of udder health status in dairy economics. Due to WTO challenges and global opportunities in marketing of milk, it is essential to improve the quality of milk at farmer’s level.
The complete chloroplast genome of desert spiny semi-shrub Alhagi sparsifolia (Fabaceae) from Central Asia

Abstract Alhagi sparsifolia is a sand-resistant subshrub and food resource for camels in the desert and semi-desert areas of Central Asia. In China, this is the olny Alhagi species and it is restricted in the Northwestern region. Its complete chloroplast genome was sequenced using the Illumina Hiseq X-Ten platform. The genome lacks an inverted repeat (IR) region, containing 74 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNAs genes, and four rRNAs. The overall GC content is 43.6%. Based on the chloroplast genome sequence, a maximum-likelihood (ML) tree was constructed along with its 15 taxa, indicating that A. sparsifolia belong to the tribe Hedysareae, which nested in IRLC group of the subfamily Papilionoideae (Fabaceae).
Performance of dairy production, reproduction and longevity in Holstein and its crosses with Cebu

The records of Mambi de Cuba dairy cows (3/4 Holstein 1/4 Cebu), Siboney de Cuba (5/8 Holstein 3/8 Cebu) and Holstein, from three herds were used to determine the effect of the genetic group (GG) and various non-genetic factors, for milk production traits (131 658 lactations of 63 066 cows), reproduction (117 794 reproductive events of 36 331 cows), longevity (18 741 cows) and milk production per life (56 536 cows). The traits of cumulative milk production up to 305 days (M305), duration of lactation (DL), age at first service (A first service), parturition-first service interval (PSI), parturition-gestation interval (PGI), parturition interval (PI),productive life (PL), number of parturition per life (PN) and milk production per life (MPLife) were studied. A mixed linear model was applied, with the use of the SAS MIXED procedure. This model included the fixed effects of the genetics, herd, lactation number, year, parturition time, genetic group interactions x lactation number, genetic group x parturition year and genetic group x parturition time. As random, the cow nested in the herd and the errors were included. For the A first S, PL, PN and MPLife traits, the model did not include the lactation number or its interaction. The fixed effects were significant, except for the parturition time and its interaction with the genetic group in the reproductive and longevity traits. It is concluded that the Mambi de Cuba showed better milk production accumulated during life and high longevity. Key words: dairy cattle, environmental effect, genetic groups
A Green RP-HPTLC-Densitometry Method for the Determination of Diosmin in Pharmaceutical Formulations

Green analytical technologies for the determination of a bioactive compound diosmin (DIOM) in the real samples of pharmaceutical formulations and biological fluids are scarce in literature. Therefore, the present investigation was carried out to develop a novel, rapid, simple, and economical green “reversed phase high-performance thin-layer chromatography (RP-HPTLC)” method for the determination of DIOM in commercial tablets and in-house developed spray-dried microparticles (MPs). The quantification of DIOM was conducted via “RP-18 silica gel 60 F254S HPTLC plates”. The binary combination of green solvents, i.e., ethanol:water (5.5:4.5 v/v) was proposed as a green mobile phase. The analysis of DIOM was conducted in absorbance/reflectance mode of densitometry at λmax = 348 nm. The densitograms of DIOM from the commercial tablets and in-house developed spray-dried MPs were verified by recording their single band at Rf = 0.80 ± 0.02 compared to standard DIOM. Green RP-HPTLC method was observed as linear in the range of 100–700 ng/band with R2 = 0.9995. The proposed method was found as “accurate, precise, robust, and sensitive” for the determination of DIOM in the real samples of commercial tablets and in-house developed spray-dried MPs. The % content of DIOM in the real samples of commercial tablets and in-house developed spray-dried MPs was obtained as 99.06 and 101.30%, respectively. The recorded results of this research suggested that the green RP-HPTLC method can be effectively used for the routine analysis of DIOM in pharmaceutical products.
Influence of Accessibility on Land Use and Landscape Pattern Based on Mapping Knowledge Domains: Review and Implications

Research on the influence of accessibility on land use and landscape patterns is one of the most important subfields in landscape ecology and transportation geography. In this review article, we use CiteSpace and VOSviewer to analyze relevant information, including the number of published papers, highly cited literature, high-frequency keywords, periodicals, and the leading countries conducting research on this particular field. Based on the mapping knowledge domain theory and summarizing method, this research, using an extensive review of the existing literature to analyze the influence of accessibility on land use and landscape patterns, the following conclusions have been reached: first, most of the relevant studies are conducted by applying theories on landscape ecology rather than on transportation geography, and the measure index of accessibility is relatively simple. Second, while accessibility has played a key role in analyzing the interactions between transportation, land use, and landscape patterns, studies on the long-term effect of transportation on land use and land patterns are extremely important. Also, different road types have been found to impose different effects. Third, research on the functional landscape in inner cities has become a significant research focus, particularly with the progress in big data. And fourth, improvements in data acquisition and processing have greatly benefited the field, specifically with recent advancements in GIS and RS technology. However, studies on landscape patterns with regional perspectives have largely been insufficient, especially those conducted over long time scales.
Faecal score and dry matter content after feeding synbiotics to neonatal Jersey crossbred calves

© Abstract: In order to observe the effect of synbiotic feeding to neonatal calves (treatment group) for 42 days, the fecal score ranged from 1 to 3 with weekly variation (p<0.01) among the calves. No difference was found in the fecal score and dry matter percent in both the groups control (synbiotic not fed) and treatment (synbiotic fed) calves. However, the faecal score was negatively correlated (r=-0.564, P<0.01) to the dry matter percent in faeces. Bacterial ( Lactobacillus sp . ) load count recovered from faeces was negatively correlated (r=-0.072) to the FS (faecal score improved) and positively correlated (r=0.012) to the DM percent in faeces. Therefore, faecal score and dry matter in faeces was better in calves fed synbiotics and Lactobacillus sp. persist (P<0.01) to be recovered from feces even after the post feeding period of synbiotics (43- 90
Environmental awareness- using non-formal education to impart skills and knowledge to improve crop yield: the case of manyeledi community, South Africa

Abstract This article sheds light on how non-formal education was used as a tool to provide knowledge and skills for Manyeledi community members who are engaged in subsistence farming, to improve their crop yield. Manyeledi is a rural village in the North-West province, which, like most rural areas, is experiencing environmental degradation caused by the depletion of natural resources, and poor farming practices. The environmental challenges experienced by this community include among others, the less arable land, changing climatic conditions and poor rainfall. A growing number of Manyeledi households live in abject poverty, where subsistence agriculture is the only source of livelihood. The community lacks the advanced farming skills needed to deal with the arid land and an acid soil. The paper provides insight into a community engagement project spearheaded by Bokamoso Impact Investment (BII), a non-governmental organisation that works to increase the crop production of marginalised groups. Through the above project, the environmental awareness campaign was launched to impart skills and knowledge that helped the Manyeledi community to deal with the environmental challenges. The training which the project members received through Non-formal education developed a heightened sense of awareness, of the need to improve their farming methods in order to enhance their livelihood sustainability. The study was qualitative in nature and observation and a one-on-one and focus group interviews were employed to collect data. The finding was that the skills and knowledge imparted by the NGO and the University of South Africa, improved the community’s farming methods, which boosted crop production.
Multi resonance patch antenna with multiple slits

In this paper we have presented new design of multi resonance patch antenna with multiple slits. Slits are located on the three sides of the designed antenna. It is simulated in a planar 3D electromagnetic simulation program, called Sonnet Software, designed on the Aluminum (96%) substrate and operates at three frequencies with reflection coefficient (S11) values lower than -10 dB. Values for the operating frequencies are 4.14, 5.52, 9.24 GHz. Electric field theta polarized gains for these three frequencies are; 8.09, 8.35 and 8.39 dB’s respectively. Cross polarization levels are well below -10 dB. A parametric study was conducted by changing the gap size and the dielectric thickness. As a result of the parametric study, it is seen that fabrication tolerances of the antenna are good enough.
Design, Development, and Operation of a Low-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Pulsation (LIFUP) System for Clinical Use

Noninvasive low-intensity focused ultrasound pulsation (LIFUP) neuromodulation provides a unique approach to both investigating and treating the brain. This work describes a well-calibrated, simple-to-use ultrasound stimulation system for neuromodulation studies. It provides a single-element 650-kHz transducer design and a straightforward control mechanism, with extensive calibration and internal electronic monitoring to prevent unwanted over or under treatment. One goal of this approach is to relieve researchers of many of the details associated with developing their own exposure equipment. A unique transducer positioning system and distinctive MRI fiducial targets simplify alignment and targeting. The system design, control software, calibration, and alignment techniques are described in detail. Examples of transducer targeting and neurostimulation using the system are provided.
The Relation between Sustainable Development Trends and Customer Value Management

The sustainable development movement is an essential trend that can resist the excessive consumption and over-exploitation of resources. There have been considerable changes in the perception of the term “sustainable development” over the last 30 years. Difficulties in implementing the principles of rational use of natural resources have resulted from a general conflict between the objectives of economic development and the increasing dynamics of industrial production, the quality of the environment and the objectives of environmental protection. This research goal was to describe ways of linking sustainable development trends and the customer value management process. Research also aimed to indicate what this relationship drives. In order to process the collected individual in-depth interview (IDI) material, the author applied a qualitative analysis. As a result of the exploratory research, it was found that there is no complete agreement on who is responsible for implementing the sustainable development assumptions: producers or customers. However, the process of linking sustainable development trends and customer value management can be pointed out. According to this study, as those who make purchasing decisions, customers are the axis of this relationship. On the basis of the results of this research, as long as customers buy particular products, they will be offered by producers.
