SIGNIFICANCE OF APPLIED SOME SOIL AMENDMENTS AND PHOSPHATE DISSOLVING BACTERIA FOR ENHANCING THE AVAILABILITY OF PHOSPHATE IN A CALCARIOUS SOIL

A field experiment was carried out on a Private Farm at Salah El-Din, El-Bostan (30° 43 ֿ 25° 14 ֿ N and 30° 17 ֿ 23° 94 ֿ E, elevation 14 m), Nobaria, El-Behiera Governorate, Egypt during the two successive growing seasons of 2008/2009 and 2009/2010. The main target of this study was at evaluating the best combination of rock phosphate with sulphur, organic manure (organic compost) and inoculation with phosphate dissolving bacteria to enhance the availability of phosphate from rock phosphate and their effects on yield and its components of broad bean plants (Vicia faba,L. Luzdo Otono cv.). The obtained results indicated that plant growth, seed and straw yields as well as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium contents in various organs of broad bean plants were highly significantly increased due to the applied combined treatments comparing with the solely ones. It was also found that either sulphur application or inoculation with phosphate dissolving bacteria plus rock phosphate had a significant effect on broad bean yield and its quality, with a superior effect for sulphur application which was more effective than the biofertilizer (PDB). The interaction between rock phosphate combined with PDB or sulphur had significant effect on seed yield/fed, weight of 100 seeds and protein yield/fed. The highest values were recorded when broad bean plants were fertilized with rock phosphate combined with PDB plus sulphur and organic manure. Application of rock phosphate and different soil amendments individually or together increased N, P and K contents in straw and seeds yields of broad bean plants. The highest contents of the studied nutrients were found when the plants were fertilized by rock phosphate and different soil amendments together. Results also showed the important role of organic matter, sulphur and PDB for releasing phosphorus from rock phosphate. So, it could be concluded that, the combination of different applied soil amendments with simultaneous application of rock phosphate, as a natural Psource, found to be possibility for saving significant quantities from the industrialized inorganic phosphate fertilizers.
Multi-tier authentication approach for ATMS

ATM has become insecure since incredible increase of trendy crimes related to this. Currently, ATM authentication is insecure, use no more than an access card with a PIN for verification. This research looked into the development of a multi-tier authentication approach that inte-grates more than one mechanism in the identity verification process used in ATMs. Recently biometric identification techniques have be-come popular such as facial recognition and fingerprint recognition. It has made significant efforts to rescue the insecure situation at the ATM points. These days Pattern Drawing is also one of the most growing security mechanisms. The combined authentication approach is to serve the purpose both the identification and authentication that card and PIN do in recent years. Proposed plan includes face recognition, fingerprint and pattern drawing together as layers. As far as security concerns proposed approach shows four times better performance than the existing approach in real environments.
A Comparative Study of Varying Depression Levels amongst People with Different Demographics and Diagnoses

The relationship between depression and gender make stronger with increasing age. The neurological health conditions also linked with depression. The centre for epidemiological studies – Depression is a 20-item scale published to measure rate of depressive symptoms that include restless sleep, poor appetite, and feeling lonely. The present research aims to understand whether the demographic details and the diagnosis of the participant was able to significantly explain the variance in the scores for the above scale. For the purpose of this study, a sample of 76 participant’s data was observed. They were segregated based on their age, gender and clinical diagnosis in order to ease the analysis process. ANOVA was conducted on the above-mentioned data. It was noted that participants with epilepsy had a statistically significant depression score when compared to participants with mild cognitive impairment (Mean difference+8.69). The results are discussed and further elaborated upon, with limitations of the study and recommendations for future research.
PERITONEAL NON-CLOSURE AT CAESAREAN SECTION – A STUDY OF SHORT TERM POST OPERATIVE MORBIDITY

Objective: To assess the intra-operative and immediate post-operative effects of non-closure of parietal and visceral peritoneum during caesarean section. Study Design: Randomized control trial. Place and Duration: Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, Combined Military Hospital, Lahore; from 1 Jan 05 to 30 Jun 05 (6 months). Patients and Methods: A total of 306 women undergoing caesarean section were randomly allocated to standard routine closure (control group n= 157), and non-closure of both peritoneal layers (study group n=149). Preoperative, intra and postoperative management decisions were made without reference to either group specifically. Statistical analysis compared incidences of immediate post operative complications. Main outcome measures were mean operative and anesthesia time, intra operative blood loss, post operative febrile morbidity and analgesia requirements, post operative bowel function and paralytic ileus, rate of wound infection/dehiscence and length of hospital stay in both groups. Results: The mean operative time was reduced by seven minutes (p< 0.01), and hospital stay was 01 day less (p< 0.01) in study group. There was no difference in rate of febrile and infectious morbidity or in level of post operative pain and number of analgesic doses in both groups. The difference b/w the frequency of postoperative items was also insignificant (p>0.05) Conclusion: Peritoneal non-closure is recommended during caesarean section because it results in significantly shorter operative time and hospital stay, decreased anesthetic dosage, quicker return of bowel activity and thus conferred significant patient and economic benefit.
MaxwellChernSimons theory with a boundary

The Maxwell–Chern–Simons (MCS) theory with planar boundary is considered. The boundary is introduced according to Symanzik’s basic principles of locality and separability. A method of investigation is proposed, which, avoiding the straight computation of correlators, is appealing for situations where the computation of propagators, modified by the boundary, alberto.blasi@ge.infn. ge, nicola.maggiore@ge.infn. it, nicodemo.magnoli@ge.infn. it stefano.storace@nyu.edu Confidential: not for distribution.

University of Birmingham Necessary and sufficient factors in employee downsizing?

Embedded in the literature on financialization and institutional approaches, this study is an examination of the causal factors of employee downsizing in two institutionally dissimilar settings, France and the United Kingdom, using the fuzzy sets variant of QCA (fsQCA). The findings show that the roughly equivalent use of large-scale layoffs in the two countries is coupled with strikingly different causal factors. Our argument suggests the importance of complex causation whereby employee downsizing reflects the growing influence of financial considerations in the governance of companies, but its diffusion across countries is shaped by different configurations of institutional arrangements.
Impact of Successful Recanalization of Chronic Total Occlusions Using Coronary Stents on Long-Term Clinical Outcomes: A Meta-Analysis

Background and Objectives: Although coronary stent implantation dramatically reduced the occurrences of restenosis and the needs for repeat revascularization, there is still uncertainty as to the prognostic impact of successful recanalization of Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) lesion. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of successful CTO recanalization using coronary stent deployment on clinical outcomes. Subjects and Methods: Databases were searched for clinical studies that compared outcomes after successful recanalization of CTO lesions using coronary stent deployment with those of unsuccessful recanalization from January 2003 to March 2016. The end points of this study were mortality; Myocardial Infarction (MI); Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE); the need for Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (CABG); and angina relief at the longest follow-up. Results: Nineteen studies encompassing 12,598 patients with a median follow-up period of 12-60 months after successful vs. unsuccessful CTO recanalization using coronary stent were identified. There were 455 (5.0%) deaths of 9,041 patients after successful recanalization compared to 339 (10.3%) among 3,280 patients after unsuccessful recanalization (odds ratio [OR] 0.48, 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 0.38 to 0.61). Successful CTO recanalization significantly reduced the incidence of MI (OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.46 to 0.97) and MACE (OR 0.55, 95% CI 0.42 to 0.73). Successful CTO recanalization was associated with a lower need for subsequent CABG and higher angina relief. Conclusion: Successful recanalization of CTO lesions using coronary stents deployment appears to be associated with improvement in mortality and reduced needs for CABG as compared with unsuccessful PCI.
DMD059873 2007..2015

This report is the summary of presentations at the symposium sponsored by the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, April 26–30, at Experimental Biology 2014 in San Diego, CA. The presentations focused on the role of transporters in imaging in health and disease and on assessing transporter function in vivo. Imaging is an important diagnostic tool in clinics and is a novel tool for in vivo visualization of transporter function. Many imaging substrates and endogenous markers for organ function are organic anions. In this symposium, the bile salt transporter sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide and the liver organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) as well as the renal organic anion transporters (OATs) were addressed in detail; e.g., OATPs mediate transport of contrast agents used for magnetic resonance imaging of the liver or transport agents used for hepatobiliary scintigraphy, and OATs transport substances used in renography. In addition, the symposium also focused on the multidrug-resistance transporter 1 (MDR1 or P-gp), which is the most important gatekeeper in epithelial or endothelial barriers for preventing entry of potentially harmful substances into organs. Novel substrates suitable for positron emission tomography (PET) allow the study of such transporters at the blood-brain barrier or while they are mediating uptake of drugs into hepatocytes, and, importantly, PET tracers also now allow renography. Finally, quantitative data on transporter expression in human organs allow the development of improved physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models for drug disposition. Hence, the combined efforts using novel substrates for in vivo visualization of transporters and quantification of transporters will lead to a deeper understanding of transporter function in disease and allow development of novel PBPK models for disease states.
USING SOLAR THERMAL ENERGY FOR DRYING OF FRESH FOOD PRODUCTS IN ALGERIA

Agricultural producers are suffering of deterioration of their products caused by the non-adapted used methods, in particular during storage. In this way, Algerian Scientifics are studying and developing cheap conservation methods using solar energy. In this paper, we propose drying as a conservation method and we present the different developed drying systems, until now, and the obtained results for multiple regions of Algeria. We expose the practical problems and recommendations in order to know more about the feasibility of using solar thermal energy. But also we expose the different used models for prediction of both the solar dryers and the products behaviour during the process.

It is used directly by millions of scientists analyzing their own data, and is a key dependency of statistical, image analysis and visualization tools they use like Matplotlib [9], SciPy [10], Scikit-image [11], Scikit-learn [12], Pandas [13], Statsmodels [14], PyMC3 [15], Tensorflow [16], and PyTorch [17].
Seasonal distribution patterns of fish assemblage in the lagoon of Somone natural reserve of communal interest in Senegal: influence of abiotic factors

Fish assemblage was investigated for patterns in seasonal structure in Somone lagoon, Senegal. Seasonal sampling from three stations with beach seine was performed in 2017. Abiotic factors such as temperature and salinity were measured during each season at all stations. Ecological and trophic classification was carried out in order to determine the fish fauna nature of this lagoon. Multivariate analysis like factorial correspondence analysis (FCA) and hierarchical classification analysis (HCA) were carried out to study temporal organization of fish assemblage. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) was performed to assess the influence of abiotic factors on temporal fish assemblage distribution. The fish assemblage of Somone lagoon consisted of 29 species from 19 families. The most abundant species were Mugilidae and Cichlidae species, accounting for 82.87% of total abundance and 87.53% of the total biomass. In terms of ecological and trophic guilds, the fish assemblage was dominated by species with estuarine affinity (19 species representing 94.75% of total individuals and 94.69% of total biomass) and herbivorous species (8 species accounting for 82.80% of total individuals and 87.17% of total biomass). The multivariate analysis indicated that temperature and salinity played an important role on the temporal distribution of fish assemblage in Somone lagoon.
Vasoconstrictor Effect of Angiotensin on Pial Arteries

The effect of topical application of angiotensin on pial arterioles was examined in anesthetized cats equipped with a cranial window for the direct observation of the pial microcirculation of the parietal cortex. Angiotensin in a dose of 0.01 to I ixg/m\ constricted pial arterioles and arteries strongly. The response of the smaller vessels was greater than that of the larger ones. Intravenous administration of angiotensin in a dose of 0.04-3.8 ^g/min raised arterial blood pressure and constricted the larger pial arteries. While the infusion of angiotensin was continued at the same dose, the blood pressure was then reduced to the control level via bleeding into a reservoir. This abolished the vasoconstriction of the larger pial arteries, showing that this effect was due to autoregulatory adjustments to the rise in blood pressure and not due to a direct effect of angiotensin. We conclude that, despite the strong constrictor effect of angiotensin on pial arteries, intravenous angiotensin can be used to study the effects of arterial hypertension on the cerebral circulation.

Transgenic Mice Without Bystander Damage CD8-Mediated Autoimmune Diabetes in Blocks the Progression of Spontaneous Systemic Administration of Agonist Peptide

Insulin-dependent diabetes is an autoimmune disease targeting pancreatic b -islet cells. Recent data suggest that autoreactive CD8 1 T cells are involved in both the early events leading to insulitis and the late destructive phase resulting in diabetes. Although therapeutic injection of protein and synthetic peptides corresponding to CD4 1 T cell epitopes has been shown to prevent or block autoimmune disease in several models, down-regulation of an ongoing CD8 1 T cell-mediated autoimmune response using this approach has not yet been reported. Using CL4-TCR single transgenic mice, in which most CD8 1 T cells express a TCR speciﬁc for the inﬂuenza virus hemagglutinin HA 512–520 peptide:K d complex, we ﬁrst show that i.v. injection of soluble HA 512–520 peptide induces transient activation followed by apoptosis of Tc1-like CD8 1 T cells. We next tested a similar tolerance induction strategy in (CL4-TCR 3 Ins-HA)F 1 double transgenic mice that also express HA in the b -islet cells and, as a result, spontaneously develop a juvenile onset and lethal diabetes. Soluble HA 512–520 peptide treatment, at a time when pathogenic CD8 1 T cells have already inﬁltrated the pancreas, very signiﬁcantly prolongs survival of the double transgenic pups. In addition, we found that Ag administration eliminates CD8 1 T cell inﬁltrates from the pancreas without histological evidence of bystander damage. Our data indicate that agonist peptide can down-regulate an autoimmune reaction mediated by CD8 1 T cells in vivo and block disease progression. Thus, in addition to autoreactive CD4 1 T cells, CD8 1 T cells may constitute targets for Ag-speciﬁc therapy in autoimmune
ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAM CHANGES DUE TO CETIRIZINE

Introduction: Cetirizine, second generation antihistamine, has appeared to reduce the incidence of sedation present with first generation antihistamine. The objective of the study was to find out the electroencephalogram changes after 15 mg single dose of cetirizine administration. Methods: A cross-over, placebo-controlled, double-blind study was carried on 30 healthy male volunteers (age 2233 years). The 5 min electroencephalographic recordings were done at baseline and with placebo and cetirizine. The electroencephalogram was decomposed into its constituent frequency bands: slow, alpha1, alpha2, alpha3, alpha4 and beta by Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) and three sets of data were compared by Friedman followed by multiple comparisons. Results: With cetirizine, power of EEG slow activity significantly increased at Cz[111 (88.1-149.4) vs.92. 4 (79.7-130.4) μV , p=0.021], Pz [88.6 (72.5-130.7) vs. 83.3 (65.1-101) μV, p=0.008] and C3 [69.3 (57.5-91.7) vs. 58.7 (49.4-71.1) μV, p= 0.004] sites whereas power of EEG beta activity significantly decreased at T5 [8 (6.1 11.3) vs. 9.4 (6.8 13.5) μV, p= 0.020] and O1 [13.1 (9.0 19.1) vs.15. 9 (10.3 22.0) μV, p= 0.043] sites, and alpha2 activity at O2 [34 (10.0 67.2) vs. 41.3 (16.8 84.6) μV, p= 0.041] site. Conclusion: The study showed that single dose of 15 mg cetirizine causes changes in electrical activity of different areas of cerebral cortex which are reflected in electroencephalogram.

Negative Effects of Barriers to Seeking Psychological Help and Their Association With Depression , Anxiety , Stress , and Self-Efficacy Among College Students

Research has consistently shown that barriers to seeking psychological help are multidimensional and negatively associated with formal help-seeking. However, studies examining the negative effects of barriers to seeking psychological help among diverse samples are scarce. Thus, the purpose of this study is to examine the negative effects of barriers to seeking psychological help among Turkish college students, in particular investigating the association between such barriers and depression, anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy. Participants included 529 college students (M=21.48, 63% female) recruited from various faculties in a university in the Central Black Sea Region of Turkey. They completed the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21, the General Self-Efficacy Scale, the Barriers to Seeking Psychological Help Scale, and a personal information form. One-way multivariate analyses of variance (MANOVA) and hierarchical multiple regression analyses were performed. One-way ANOVA results showed that students who had previously sought psychological help had significantly higher depression, anxiety, and stress scores than other students and male participants had higher general self-efficacy scores than female participants. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses also revealed that the dimensions of barriers to seeking psychological help were positively correlated with depression, anxiety, and stress and negatively correlated with general self-efficacy after controlling for gender and previous help-seeking experience. Reducing barriers related to seeking formal psychological help may help to foster psychological well-being among Turkish college students.
Supply-Demand Gap Analysis and Projection for Major Pulses in India

India is the global leader in terms of production, consumption and import of pulses. The pulses production has been stagnating over the years leading to widening gap between demand and supply. About 20 percent of the total pulses demand is met through imports. The present study is an attempt to analyze the production growth, supply-demand gap and projection of availability of major pulses viz., gram (Chickpea) and tur (Pigeon pea), in India. The highest growth rates in total pulses production was recorded between 1966-67 to 1975-76 period and from 2006-07 to 2015-16 exhibiting 2.05 per cent and 2.62 per cent increase. Gram (Chickpea) recorded the highest production growth between the period from1989-87 to 1995-96 and 2006-07 to 2015-16 and respective figure were 2.78 percent and 2.79 percent. Whereas, tur (Pigeonpea) showed accelerated growth rate of 2.72 per cent in area, 4.30 per cent growth in production during 1976-77 to 1985-86 period. The study found that there is a big gap in supply and demand of major pulses in India, suggesting a shortage of pulse for domestic consumption to the tune of 114.50 lakh tonnes of Gram (Chickpea) and 365.60 lakh tonnes of Tur (Pigeon pea) during 2030.
