276: ESTABLISHING ENTRUSTABLE PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES IN PEDIATRIC CARDIAC CRITICAL CARE

Learning Objectives: Complete aortic transection is typically fatal and extremely rare in pediatric patients. High clinical suspicion, even in hemodynamically stable patients, is essential for timely recognition and intervention. There is scant literature on the management of complete aortic transection in pediatric patients. Methods: A 16-year old girl presented with a complete transection of the thoracic aorta with a 5–6 cm separation gap after an autopedestrian collision. Mediastinal vascular injury was suspected based on presentation, confirmed by chest radiograph (CXR), and further delineated by computed tomography (CT). This revealed a thoracic aortic transection with a gap of over 5–6 cm, corresponding to American Association for Surgery of Trauma (AAST) grade IV injury and Aortic Trauma Foundation (ATF) grade IV. There was extravasation of blood into the posterior mediastinum and left pleural space, as well as flow into the distal aorta maintained by periaortic tissue and mediastinal pleura. Other major associated injuries included bone fractures and visceral lacerations. CT angiography was critical in determining the anatomy of injury and planning repair. Repair was achieved by left heart bypass and 18-millimeter Dacron interposition grafting. The patient survived without vascular-related complications and remains well at 3-year follow up. Results: There is scant data on the diagnosis and management of complete aortic transection in children. A total of 20 pediatric patients with a median age of 14 years old (range, 6–19) had complete transection of the aorta (thoracic =18 and abdominal =2), with the most common location of injury at the isthmus (70%). Only 2 patients (10%) had an unstable initial presentation. Widening mediastinum on CXR was the initial radiological finding in 17 patients (85%). CT and angiography were the most frequent diagnostic procedures utilized. All patients underwent open surgeries and 19 of them (95%) had an interposed graft repair. The median hospital stay was 55.8 days (range, 4–101 respectively), with 19 children (95%) surviving to hospital discharge, and 3 of them suffering paraplegia as a long-term a sequelae. Complete aortic transection in pediatric patients should be considered in children with severe blunt trauma. The role of selective imaging for diagnosis is warranted. Good outcomes are possible if children receive prompt diagnosis and intervention. The applicability of endovascular stent-grafting in pediatric patients remains uncertain.

Novel Ensemble Modeling Method for Enhancing Subset Diversity Using Clustering Indicator Vector Based on Stacked Autoencoder

A single model cannot satisfy the high-precision prediction requirements given the high nonlinearity between variables. By contrast, ensemble models can effectively solve this problem. Three key factors for improving the accuracy of ensemble models are namely the high accuracy of a submodel, the diversity between subsample sets and the optimal ensemble method. This study presents an improved ensemble modeling method to improve the prediction precision and generalization capability of the model. Our proposed method first uses a bagging algorithm to generate multiple subsample sets. Second, an indicator vector is defined to describe these subsample sets. Third, subsample sets are selected on the basis of the results of agglomerative nesting clustering on indicator vectors to maximize the diversity between subsets. Subsequently, these subsample sets are placed in a stacked autoencoder for training. Finally, XGBoost algorithm, rather than the traditional simple average ensemble method, is imported to ensemble the model during modeling. Three machine learning public datasets and atmospheric column dry point dataset from a practical industrial process show that our proposed method demonstrates high precision and improved prediction ability.
Aquaculture as a tool to support goby‐fry fishery? Current knowledge on biology and ecology of the red‐tailed goby
 Sicyopterus lagocephalus

Sicydiinae species are amphidromous gobies, adults spawn in freshwater, whereas free embryos undergo a pelagic open sea phase. Post-larvae or juveniles are caught for human consumption when entering in freshwater after their pelagic larvae life in sea-water. Such goby-fry fisheries are existing since centuries and widespread in tropical areasovertheworld.Thereareuncertaintiesrelatedtocaughtvolumesandtrendsbut, overall, go-fry fisheries are declining and their sustainability is questionable. Aquacul-ture is a potential tool in conservation and management of wild goby stocks. Among Sicydiinae species, the red-tailed goby Sicyopterus lagocephalus is the most spread and used as a model species in numerous works involving amphidromous fish. The aim of the study was to evaluate the potential in aquaculture of the red-tailed goby through the analysis of the literature available on this species. We found that this species has some assets to be a potential candidate for aquaculture such as a short production cycle and a high fecundity as well as potential high market values. Nevertheless, given the small size at hatching and the long pelagic larval life, larval rearing is likely to be a challenging rearing phase but appears to be feasible based on past experiences with other goby species. Throughout the paper, we provided recommendations for future research in red-tailed goby aquaculture.
A scoping review of research on coordinated pathways towards employment for youth in vulnerable life situations

ABSTRACT For youth in vulnerable life situations, pathways to employment can be challenging, suggesting the need for coordinated services. The aim of this review is to explore the existing research on coordinated services for youth in vulnerable life situations. Considering the heterogenous nature of the literature, we adopted a scoping review methodology. We selected works from a base of 92 papers on youth, coordinated services, and pathways to work that were published in English during the period of 1990–2018. Additionally, to identify research streams, we performed a bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer to create network maps based on shared terms in the papers’ titles and abstracts. The synthesised findings show two streams of research that we refer to by the following narrative titles: (1) ‘Enabling transition to adulthood for youth with disabilities or severe health problems’, and (2) ‘Preventing the social exclusion of youth at risk’. The first stream seems to represent a more established area(s) of research, while the second stream appears to be more fragmented. The life situations of the youth in both streams, however, overlap, indicating possibilities for knowledge exchange, such as social workers engaging in policy practices and advancing efforts towards enacting system changes.
One-Step Synthesis of Hydrophilic Nano-Floral Inter-Polymeric Material for Highly Selective Enrichment of N-Linked Glycopeptides

Abstract A novel nano-floral inter-polymeric material (λ-Carr-Ag-SA) was developed to effectively capture N-linked glycopeptides from biological samples. A simple one-step reduction of silver ions was involved in the synthesis of the material in which λ-carrageenan and sodium alginate, with abundant hydrophilic groups, were used as the reducing agent and stabilizer. The performance of λ-Carr-Ag-SA was evaluated experimentally by enriching glycopeptides from horse radish peroxidase (HRP) and human serum. All the results demonstrated that λ-Carr-Ag-SA had a great selectivity, low detection limit and a large binding capacity toward glycopeptides. The successful application exhibits great potential of λ-Carr-Ag-SA for further glycoproteome analysis.
“We Got to Do Better”: Interactions Between School Counselors and Black Male Student-Athletes

This qualitative study explores the perspectives and experiences of Black male student-athletes with particular focus on their interactions with school counselors. It draws on nine participants selected through purposive and snowball sampling techniques. The Black male participants were current or former student-athletes at the high school and Division I levels. We developed and analyzed the semistructured interview questions through the lens of critical race theory. Using deductive data analysis techniques, we identified key factors that appear to shape interactions between Black male student-athletes and school counselors, including the perception of the school counselor role, a village of support, and prior experiences with school counselors. The results of this study have implications for school counselor practice, policy, and research.
Computer Vision and Deep Learning to Manage Safety in Construction: Matching Images of Unsafe Behavior and Semantic Rules

The determination of people.s unsafe behavior from images in construction has been typically based on hand-made rule approaches, which renders it difficult to identify multiple acts of unsafe behavior within an image and accordingly apply safety rules. This article aims to develop a computer vision and deep learning method that can match images of people's unsafe behavior with semantic safety rules. Our proposed method consists of: 1) image feature representation; 2) safety rule feature representation; and 3) feature fusion similarity whereby unsafe behavior extracted from an image is matched with safety rules. We validate the effectiveness of our method using an image database of people's unsafe behavior from different sites associated with the construction of the Wuhan Metro Project (China). The results of our research explicitly demonstrate that our method is robust and can accurately recognize people's unsafe behavior and the corresponding safety rule that has been contravened. To this end, we suggest that construction organizations can use our method to manage safety better as part of a behavior-based safety strategy and thus prevent accidents.
Expression Profiling of Heat Shock Protein Genes as Putative Early Heat-Responsive Members in Lettuce

High temperatures due to global warming can cause harmful effects on the productivity of lettuce, a cool-season crop. To identify lettuce heat shock protein (HSP) genes that could be involved in early responses to heat stress in plants, we compared RNA transcriptomes between lettuce plants with and without heat treatment of 37 °C for 1 h. Using transcriptome sequencing analyses, a total of 7986 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified including the top five, LsHSP70A, LsHSP70B, LsHSP17.3A, LsHSP17.9A and LsHSP17.9B, which were the most highly differentially expressed genes. In order to investigate the temporal expression patterns of 24 lettuce HSP genes with a fold-change greater than 100 under heat stress, the expression levels of the genes were measured by qRT-PCR at 0, 1, 4, 8, 14, and 24 h time points after heat treatment. The 24 LsHSP genes were classified into three groups based on the phylogenetic analysis and/or major domains available in each protein, and we provided a potential link between the phylogenetic relationships and expression patterns of the LsHSP genes. Our results showed putative early heat-responsive lettuce HSP genes that could be possible candidates as breeding guides for the development of heat-tolerant lettuce cultivars.
Neuropsychological responses of consumers to promotion strategies and the decision to buy sports products

PurposeNeuromarketing is a science that can examine human subconscious decisions and activities. The study aimed to investigate the neuropsychological responses of consumers to promotion strategies and the decision to buy sports products, in order to determine the more effective strategy.Design/methodology/approachAn experimental design clarifies whether there is a significant difference between the neuropsychological responses resulting from selective promotional strategies (charity, endorsement, advertising and discount). The authors conducted the research with 40 young adults (20 males and 20 females; age range 25–35 years). The Enobio 20-channel electroencephalograph (EEG) is used to record waves, a two-item questionnaire is used to measure purchasing decisions and self-assessment forms are used to measure arousal and pleasure. Data analysis performed by Friedman's statistical methods and logistic regression using SPSS 22 software.FindingsBased on the alpha wave, the results showed the two charity and endorsement strategies had the highest effect on consumer attentions. The pleasure had the highest value in the discount, and the arousal had the highest value in the charity strategy. Neuropsychological responses also explain a significant percentage of the consumer decision to buy.Research limitations/implicationsAccess to research samples is difficult due to the ignorance of the samples as well as the fear of possible harm from imaging and brain scanning methods.Practical implicationsNeuromarketing is a science that can examine human subconscious decisions and activities.Social implicationsThe information obtained neural methods are more accurate than traditional research methods.Originality/valueThis study showed the alpha brainwave (attention), arousal and pleasure explain a significant part of the consumer decision to buy. More scientific data can be obtained through new scientific approaches such as neuromarketing, which has a great impact on understanding consumer behavior. Therefore, marketers and researchers can make their promotional activities more effective in terms of them.
Contrasting effects of host or local specialization: Widespread haemosporidians are host generalist, whereas local specialists are locally abundant

Aim: Despite the wide distribution of many parasites around the globe, the range of individual species varies significantly, even among phylogenetically related taxa. Given that parasites need suitable hosts to complete their development, parasite ge - ographical and environmental ranges should be limited to communities where their hosts are found. Parasites might also suffer from a trade-off between being locally abundant or widely dispersed. We hypothesize that the geographical and environ - mental ranges of parasites are negatively associated with their host specificity and their local abundance. Location: World-wide. Time period: 2009– 2021. Major taxa studied: Avian haemosporidian parasites. Methods: We tested these hypotheses using a global database that comprises data on avian haemosporidian parasites from across the world. For each parasite lineage, we computed five metrics, namely phylogenetic host range, environmental range, geographical range and the mean local and total number of observations in the data - base. Phylogenetic generalized least
Long-term Performance of Nanoparticle Incorporated Eco-friendly Concrete in Natural Seawater Environment

The use of blended concrete has widely gained industrial importance owing to the CO2 gas emissions and carbon footprint resulting from the production of ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Despite the advancements, the deterioration of concrete structures raises a significant threat to their long term durability and service life in aggressive conditions. In this work, the long-term antifouling, strength and durability properties of a blended eco-friendly concrete with OPC, fly ash, nanoparticles, and corrosion inhibitor is evaluated in natural seawater for one year. The biofouling attachment, total viability count (TVC), mechanical strength, alkalinity and free chloride contents were measured and the results were compared with OPC concrete. A four-order reduction in the total biomass and total bacterial density is observed on the surface of the blended concrete. Further, a significantly lower chloride and water penetration depth, free chloride content, compact and smooth surface morphology devoid of cracks and high C-S-H content are observed in blended concrete, compared to the OPC concrete, after exposure in seawater for one year. From the results, it is seen that the blended concrete mix is promising for applications in seawater environments because of its superior biofouling resistance, mechanical properties and durability.
Self-Paced Enhanced Low-Rank Tensor Kernelized Multi-View Subspace Clustering

This paper addresses the multi-view subspace clustering problem and proposes the self-paced enhanced low-rank tensor kernelized multi-view subspace clustering (SETKMC) method, which is based on two motivations: (1) singular values of the representations and multiple instances should be treated differently. The reasons are that larger singular values of the representations usually quantify the major information and should be less penalized; samples with different degrees of noise may have various reliability for clustering. (2) many existing methods may cause the degraded performance when multi-view features reside in different nonlinear subspaces. This is because they usually assumed that multiple features lie within the union of several linear subspaces. SETKMC integrates the nonconvex tensor norm, self-paced learning, and kernel trick into a unified model for multi-view subspace clustering. The nonconvex tensor norm imposes different weights on different singular values. The self-paced learning gradually involves instances from more reliable to less reliable ones while the kernel trick aims to handle the multi-view data in nonlinear subspaces. One iterative algorithm is proposed based on the alternating direction method of multipliers. Extensive results on seven real-world datasets show the effectiveness of the proposed SETKMC compared to fifteen state-of-the-art multi-view clustering methods.
Experimentation-related causal attributions of German secondary school students

Abstract Students’ causal attributions play an important role in recent studies due to their effects on academic self-concept and performances. Most common causal attributions are students’ ability, effort, task difficulty, and chance. The present study aims at identifying students’ preferred causal attributions of failure and success while experimenting. Therefore, the experimentation-related causal attribution questionnaire was developed and used on a sample of 90 upper secondary school students. Its factorial validity, internal consistencies, as well as the autonomy of its eight subscales—success- and failure-related causal attributions based on students’ ability, effort, task difficulty, and chance in experimentation—were confirmed. Further analyses revealed a gender difference in experimentation-related causal attributions. Girls show less favourable attribution styles than boys in case of both, success and failure. With regard to experimentation-related successes, boys show a higher attribution to ability than girls. Girls are more likely to use luck and a low degree of task difficulty as an explanation for their academic successes in experimental settings than boys. Female students also draw on attributions such as lack of ability and task difficulty to account for their failures. Practical consequences for science education are derived from the findings.
Study on the Effects of Chinese Materia Medica Processing on the Hypoglycemic Activity and Chemical Composition of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma

Purpose To compare the hypoglycemic effects of different extracts of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma (AR) before and after being stir-baked with salt water on the diabetic mice and to detect the contents of 8 components in the corresponding active parts simultaneously using the UPLC-MS method, in order to screen the better extracts for diabetes and to clear the material basis for enhancing hypoglycemic activity of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma stir-baked with salt water (SAR). Methods Taking spontaneous type II diabetic db/db mice as models and fasting blood glucose (FBG), oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), glycated hemoglobin or glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc), serum resistin (RESISTEIN), fasting insulin (FINS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), and nitric oxide (NO) as indicators, the hypoglycemic effects of different active parts of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma were evaluated. The chromatographic separation was performed on a Waters BEH C18 (2.1 mm × 50 mm, 1.7 μm) column using acetonitrile (B) and 0.1% formic acid in water (A) as mobile phases, and the flow rate was 0.3 ml/min. The column temperature was set as 28°C, and the injection volume was 10 μL. A mass spectrometer was connected to the UPLC system via an electrospray ionization (ESI) interface. Full-scan data acquisition was performed in the negative ion mode. Result In the study of pharmacodynamics, the hypoglycemic effect of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma stir-baked with salt water is better than that of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma and the hypoglycemic effect of ethanol extract of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma is more remarkable than that of the decoction. The measured components all have a good linear relationship within their respective linear ranges (r ≥ 0.9990); the average recovery rates are 98.86%–100.69%, RSD <2.90%. Compared with the raw Anemarrhenae Rhizoma, the contents of Timosaponin AIII, Timosaponin BII, Timosaponin BIII, Anemarrhenasaponin I, Anemarrhenasaponin Ia, and Mangiferin of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma stir-baked with salt water are all higher, the changes of Timosaponin AI and Anemarrhenasaponin AII are not obvious, and all the contents of chemical composition in the ethanol extract of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma and Anemarrhenae Rhizoma stir-baked with salt water were obviously higher compared with the water decoction. Conclusion The processing method, stir-baking with salt water, can increase the contents of active compositions in Anemarrhenae Rhizoma and strengthen the hypoglycemic effect. The ethanol extract of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma stir-baked with salt water is the better active site.
