Next, we achieve the time series prediction of product reputation by making use of ARIMA model. Finally, we use word segmentation and K-means clustering algorithm to determine whether stars and comments have radiation effects.
CN-SIM - a model for the turnover of soil organic matter. I: Long term carbon development

A computer model is presented that describes the flow of C and N in the soil. It employs a structure with conceptual compartments. Organic matter is represented by seven different compartments, two for added matter, two for soil microbial biomass, one for microbial residues, one for native organic matter, and one for inert organic matter. The latter pool probably represents both truly inert matter, and matter with a very slow turnover. This paper describes the parameterisation and performance of this model on selected long-term field data from United Kingdom, Sweden and Denmark. Statistical methods were employed to optimise parameters, and obtain proximate confidence intervals for these parameters. Very satisfactory simulations could be acquired, using the same set of parameters on all sites. It was demonstrated that the inert (refractory) pool may constitute any amount between approx. 10% and 50% of total SOC, so that modelling can not be used as a tool to give narrow estimates for this pool.
Towards a framework of automated resource model for post contract cost control of construction projects

Abstract Real-time control of on-site construction cost has been a major concern as every client demand value for the money invested in procuring a construction project. The design team and other stakeholders in the construction industry face the challenges posed by the ever-increasing complexity of construction facilities, and the demands of clients to meet their needs within a given budget. In addition, the trend of information technology in construction demands that all activities including cost optimization be automated and digitalized for better proficiency of the construction professionals and effectiveness of job delivery. This article presents a conceptual framework for the automated resource model (ARM) for on-site construction cost control. The concept of ARM is based on the use of mobile technology, integrating it with a back-office central system for real-time data capturing, monitoring, and control to keep expenditure within a predetermined budget. The scope covered includes Automated Real-Time Data (ARTiD) collection, Construction Progress Monitoring and Evaluation, and Construction Activity Monitoring. The ARM concept can enable the construction stakeholders to obtain information on cost implications of all activities simultaneously. It can also enable quick detection of any source of cost and time overrun and propose quick remedial action.
Log Odds of Positive Lymph Node- (LODDS-) Based Competing-Risk Nomogram for Predicting Prognosis of Resected Rectal Cancer: A Development and Validation Study

Background and Aims. Cancer-specific survival (CSS) of rectal cancer (RC) is associated with several factors. We aimed to build an efficient competing-risk nomogram based on log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) to predict RC survival. Methods. Medical records of 8754 patients were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, of 4895 patients from SEER during 2011–2014 and of 478 patients from an Eastern center as a development cohort, validation cohort, and test cohort, respectively. Univariate and multivariate competing-risk analyses were performed to build competing-risk nomogram for predicting the CSS of RC patients. Prediction efficacy was evaluated and compared with reference to the 8th TNM classification using the factor areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and Brier score. Results. The competing-risk nomogram was based on 6 variables: size, M stage, LODDS, T stage, grade, and age. The competing-risk nomogram showed a higher AUC value in predicting the 5-year death rate due to RC than the 8th TNM stage in the development cohort (0.81 vs. 0.76), validation cohort (0.85 vs. 0.82), and test cohort (0.71 vs. 0.66). The competing-risk nomogram also showed a higher Brier score in predicting the 5-year death rate due to RC than the 8th TNM stage in the development cohort (0.120 vs. 0.127), validation cohort (0.123 vs. 0.128), and test cohort (0.202 vs. 0.226). Conclusion. We developed and validated a competing-risk nomogram for RC death, which could provide the probability of survival averting competing risk to facilitate clinical decision-making.
Secondary development process of slicer based on workflow of intracranial hematoma

Because 3D Slicer has many applications in medical imaging and has high scalability, it has been studied by many people engaged in medical and development work. In order to facilitate the clinical use of 3D Slicer software in craniocerebral surgery, this article re-developed the graphical user interface (GUI) in the software. The development process can be divided into four steps: app, Qt and Visual Studio, software packaging and external modules. Through the application of Qt and Visual Studio, GUI can be built and modified to simplify the operation steps and operation interface, in order to meet the clinical use needs of doctors. At the same time, this paper demonstrates the operation results in the workflow, such as medical image fusion and neural bundle modeling.

Assessment of the Relationship between Sleep Disorders and Circadian Type in Nurses with Shift and Daytime Work

Background and Objective: Chronotypes vary in different people, and the daily function outside of the framework of this rhythm can affect the quality of work. This study aimed to investigate the association between sleep disorders and chronotypes among the shift and day work nurses. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed among nurses in two teaching hospitals in Mash-had, Iran, during 2016-2017. A total of 180 randomly-selected nurses were divided into shift work and day work groups. Participants completed demographic information form, Circadian Type Inventory (CTI), Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Results: A total of 180 female nurses (90 participants in each group) with a mean age of 35.62 ± 4.07 years were stud-ied. The prevalence of rigid circadian rhythm in the day work group (93.3%) was significantly (P = 0.004) higher than shift work group (78.9%). However, the groups did not show any significant difference regarding the languid/vigorous (LV) index of the CTI (P = 0.080). There was a significant difference in the mean score of CTI between individuals with rigid and flexible circadian rhythms in the shift work group (P = 0.021). Conclusion: In the present study, although there was no association between circadian type and sleep problems includ-ing insomnia and daytime sleepiness in shift work nurses, we observed the capability of coping with working in the rotating shifts in nurses with flexible circadian rhythms.
Academic independent directors and corporate fraud: evidence from China

ABSTRACT This paper examined the effect of academic independent directors on the incidence of corporate fraud in a sample of listed Chinese companies from 2007 to 2017. A significant inhibitory effect on fraudulent activities was found when academic directors were on the board, which was stronger when the academic directors were highly reputable or from legal and accounting backgrounds. Negative relationships between academic directors and the likelihood of fraud commission and positive relationships for the likelihood of fraud detection were also proven. This study highlighted the corporate fraud prevention effect that academic independent directors can have on company operations.
Bacterial Diversity in a Dynamic and Extreme Sub-Arctic Watercourse (Pasvik River, Norwegian Arctic)

Microbial communities promptly respond to the environmental perturbations, especially in the Arctic and sub-Arctic systems that are highly impacted by climate change, and fluctuations in the diversity level of microbial assemblages could give insights on their expected response. 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing was applied to describe the bacterial community composition in water and sediment through the sub-Arctic Pasvik River. Our results showed that river water and sediment harbored distinct communities in terms of diversity and composition at genus level. The distribution of the bacterial communities was mainly affected by both salinity and temperature in sediment samples, and by oxygen in water samples. Glacial meltwaters and runoff waters from melting ice probably influenced the composition of the bacterial community at upper and middle river sites. Interestingly, marine-derived bacteria consistently accounted for a small proportion of the total sequences and were also more prominent in the inner part of the river. Results evidenced that particular conditions occurring at sampling sites (such as algal blooms, heavy metal contamination and anaerobiosis) may select species at local scale from a shared bacterial pool, thus favoring certain bacterial taxa. Conversely, the few phylotypes specifically detected in some sites are probably due to localized external inputs introducing allochthonous microbial groups.
Parents And Gifted Preschooler: The Specifics Of Relationship

The article is devoted to the problem of the relationship between parents and gifted children at the preschool stage. The role of parents in revealing children's giftedness, which is considered as a precondition for the development of a creative personality, is discussed. Significant parenting aspects that contribute to the development of high abilities of preschoolers are highlighted. A study is aimed at identifying the specifics of the relationship between modern parents and gifted preschool children. To identify the differences, we also studied the relationship between parents and children whose creativity was less pronounced. The results showed that although parents strive to show respect and trust in the children, only some of them manage to build a harmonious interaction with the child. There are twice as many parents of this type among the parents of gifted preschoolers as among parents of peers. Gifted preschoolers, as well as their peers, perceive relationships with parents as very significant, which is typical for children of this age. But less than half of the gifted and less than a third of their peers feel comfortable and confident in relationships with their parents. In the majority of preschoolers, when analyzing the perception of the relationship with parents, both signs of comfort and signs (of varying severity) of a certain discomfort (signs of uncertainty, anxiety, etc.) are distinguished. The need for psychological support of parents in raising preschoolers and disclosure of potential is emphasized. A study by Denisenkova of the family conditions for the development of mentally gifted preschoolers showed that most of them grew up in an atmosphere of kindness and support from their parents. 80% of parents rated the child's giftedness adequately and accepted with joy. Such parents took an active position in development and education of the child. Very rarely there have been cases of parents ignoring or repulsing children's giftedness.
Current Practice of Managing the Waste of the Waste: Policy, Market, and Organisational Factors Influencing Shredder Fines Management in Sweden

The recycling-industry residue called shredder fines (fines) presents a disposal problem, incurs handling costs, and reduces resource efficiency in general. This study aims to identify the challenges of facilitating fines valorisation in the Swedish context. Hence, the shredding company perspective of the underlying factors that sustain the current practice of fines management is established by studying the case of a specific shredding company using semi-structured interviews. Utilisation in landfill covering offers the company a secure outlet and a legislatively-compliant low-cost disposal option for fines. Additionally, lack of specific regulatory standards, unfavourable regulation of waste reutilisation, and lack of market demand for secondary raw materials (SRMs) create disincentives to develop valorisation options. Also, the lack of corporate-level focus on the issue has resulted in a lack of organising for and capacities to improve the handling of the material. Initiating fines valorisation needs to challenge these prevailing circumstances and thus necessitates governmental interventions. Simultaneously, favourable conditions for SRM utilisation are needed; that is, established outlets for fines-derived SRMs and clear regulatory and market playing rules that reduce uncertainty and investment risk of developing tailored processes for upgrading and resource recovery need to be available.
Phosphate Solubilization and Mobilization in Soil Through Microorganisms Under Arid Ecosystems

Phosphorous is going to be plant nutrient that will limit the agricultural production in the next millennium. It is a major growth-limiting nutrient, and unlike the case of nitrogen, there is no large atmospheric source that can be made biologically available (Ezawa et al., 2002). As regards the role of P, it stimulate root development and growth, gives plant rapid and vigorous start leading to better tillering, essential for many metabolic processes in plant life and for seed formation and organization of cells, encourages earlier maturity, In most soils, its content is about 0.05% of which only 0.1% is plant available (Achal et al., 2007). The total phosphorous content in arid soils in India ranges from 560 to 900 kg ha-1, the available phosphorous is quite low i.e. 15-25 kg ha-1 (Dhir, 1977). The soils being poor in organic matter (1.54.2 mg kg-1), most of these phosphorous is present in inorganic form as calcium and aluminium phosphatase. About 20-25% of total phosphorous in arid soils of India is organic in nature and 68% organic phosphorous in the soil is present as phytin (Yadav & Tarafdar, 2007), which are not directly available to plants. Therefore application of phosphatic fertilizers to the soil is essential to maintain adequate amount of soluble P in the soil solution for optimum plant growth as well as to maintain soils sustainability. Efficiency of P fertilizer throughout the world is around 10-25% (Lindsay, 1979), and concentration of bioavailable P in the soil is very low reaching the level of 1.0 mg kg-1 soil (Goldstein, 1994). Phosphorous is taken up from the soil in the form of soluble orthophosphate ions; H2PO4-1, HPO4-2 and PO4-3 and generally the availability of these ions to the plants is in the order of H2PO4-1> HPO4-3>PO4-3. The type of the orthophosphate ion present in the soil is depending on soil reaction. At the relatively low pH of 4 to 5, orthophosphate usually exist as H2PO4-1 ions. On increasing pH, first HPO4-2 ions are formed which convert to PO4-3 as the soil reaction become alkaline. Large amount of P applied as fertilizer enters in to the immobile pools through precipitation reaction with highly reactive Al3+ and Fe3+ in acidic soil and Ca2+ in calcareous or normal soils (Gyaneshwar et al., 2002; Hao et al., 2002). Although total P pool is high, only a part is available to plants. So, the release and mobilization of insoluble and fixed forms of P is an important aspect of increasing soil P availability. Soil
Short-Term Associations of Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) on Mortality in 18 French Cities, 2010–2014

We present an analysis of short-term associations between ambient NO2 and mortality according to cause, age-group, and period (cold and warm) in 18 areas in metropolitan France for the 2010–2014 period. Associations were estimated in each area using a generalized additive Poisson regression model, and effects were summarized in a meta-analysis. The percentage increase in mortality rate was estimated for a 10 µg m−3 increase in the NO2 level in each area for each complete calendar year and for cold (November to April) and warm periods (May to October) in each year. We found that the NO2 increase (lag of 0–1 days) was associated with a 0.75% increase of non-accidental mortality for all age-groups (95% confidence interval (CI): (0.4; 1.10)). During the warm period, this NO2 increase was associated with a 3.07% increase in non-accidental mortality in the ≥75 years old group (95% CI: 1.97; 4.18). This study supports the short-term effects of NO2 as a proxy of urban traffic pollution on mortality, even for concentrations below the maximum guideline of 40 µg m−3 set down by the European Air Quality Standards and the World Health Organization (WHO).

Objetivo: Avaliar o efeito da laserterapia de 660nm e 780 nm, dose de 6,3 J/cm² e 25 mW de potencia, associado ou nao ao estresse nutricional, na proliferacao de celulas do carcinoma epidermoide de laringe (H.Ep. 2). O laser nao cirurgico vem sendo utilizado na Odontologia; porem, sua acao na atividade proliferativa de celulas malignas em cultura ainda nao esta esclarecida, visto que o laser pode ocasionar uma inibicao ou estimulacao da atividade mitotica. Metodo: As celulas H.Ep. 2 foram acondicionadas e congeladas em frasco de cultura com soro fetal bovino (SFB) a -80°C, com diferentes concentracoes do meio: 5% e 10%. A laserterapia foi iniciada 24 h apos arepicagem celular e realizadas 6, 12, 24, 48 e 72 horas apos a primeira irradiacao, num periodo de cinco dias. Em seguida, a viabilidade celular foi verificada utilizando-se o metodo do MTT. Foram obtidas medias e desvio padrao, sendo utilizados os testes estatisticos t-Student e F (ANOVA) com comparacoes de Tukey ou de Tamanhe. Resultados: A laserterapia de 780 nm influenciou significativamente a proliferacao das celulas quando comparados os grupos experimentais aos controles (p < 0,05), mantidos a 5% ou a 10%, em determinados tempos do experimento. A laserterapia de 660 nm nao incrementou a proliferacao celular, nas diferentes concentracoes do meio. O tempo influenciou o crescimento de todas as culturas. Conclusoes: O laser de baixa potencia interferiu na proliferacao celular e este efeito pode ser determinado pelo comprimento de onda utilizado e o estado nutricional das celulas.
Evapotranspiración e intercambio de energía en un bosque templado de México

In forest ecosystems the energy balance, the water cycle and the carbon cycle are linked through the evapotranspiration process. Evapotranspiration is highly variable in space and time since it is controlled by numerous biophysical factors. The objective of this study was to analyze the seasonal variability of evapotranspiration and identify the main factors that influence this process. The eddy covariance technique was used to measure fluxes of sensible heat and latent heat (equivalent to evapotranspiration) in a temperate forest under forest management, located in the region of Zacualtipán, Hidalgo, Mexico. Simultaneously, net radiation, soil heat flux, soil moisture content and other meteorological parameters were measured. During the analyzed period, the proportion of the net radiation with the latent heat and sensible heat fluxes was similar most of the time. The total annual evapotranspiration observed was 980 mm. It was lower in the “cold front” season and no differences were found between the rainy season and the 2021, Instituto Mexicano de Tecnología del Agua Open Access bajo la licencia CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/) 493 Tecnología y ciencias del agua, ISSN 2007-2422, 12(2), 490-537. DOI: 10.24850/j-tyca-2021-02-11 dry season. Temperature, soil moisture, net radiation and vapor pressure deficit explained most of the variability of evapotranspiration. Further studies are necessary to involve the analysis of ecosystem productivity and water use efficiency, to better understand ecosystem processes and identify appropriate sustainable forest management practices.
Impedance Model-Based Optimal Regulation on Force and Position of Bimanual Robots to Hold an Object

Bimanual robots have been studied for decades and regulation on internal force of the being held object by two manipulators becomes a research interest in recent years. In this paper, based on impedance model, a method to obtain the optimal target position for bimanual robots to hold an object is proposed. We introduce a cost function combining the errors of the force and the position and manage to minimize its value to gain the optimal coordinates for the robot end effectors (EE). To implement this method, two necessary algorithms are presented, which are the closed-loop inverse kinematics (CLIK) method to work out joint positions from desired EE pose and the generalized-momentum-based external force observer to measure the subjected force acting on the EE so as to properly compensate for the joint torques. To verify the effectiveness, practicality, and adaptivity of the proposed scheme, in the simulation, a bimanual robot system with three degrees of freedom (DOF) in every manipulator was constructed and employed to hold an object, where the results are satisfactory.
