The art of successful implementation of psychosocial interventions in residential dementia care: a systematic review of the literature based on the RE-AIM framework

ABSTRACT Background: In the past decades many psychosocial interventions for elderly people with dementia have been developed and implemented. Relatively little research has been done on the extent to which these interventions were implemented in the daily care. The aim of this study was to obtain insight into strategies for successful implementation of psychosocial interventions in the daily residential dementia care. Using a modified RE-AIM framework, the indicators that are considered important for effective and sustainable implementation were defined. Methods: A systematic literature search was undertaken in PubMed, PsycINFO, and Cinahl, followed by a hand search for key papers. The included publications were mapped based on the dimensions of the RE-AIM framework: Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance. Results: Fifty-four papers met the inclusion criteria and described various psychosocial interventions. A distinction was made between studies that used one and studies that used multiple implementation strategies. This review shows that to improve their knowledge, caregivers needed at least multiple implementation strategies, only education is not enough. For increasing a more person-centered attitude, different types of knowledge transfer can be effective. Little consideration is given to the adoption of the method by caregivers and to the long-term sustainability (maintenance). Conclusions: This review shows that in order to successfully implement a psychosocial method the use of multiple implementation strategies is recommended. To ensure sustainability of a psychosocial care method in daily nursing home care, innovators as well as researchers should specifically pay attention to the dimensions Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance of the RE-AIM implementation framework.
The First Layers of Water on Ru(001)

The initial growth of water molecules to form the first bilayer and then ice layers on Ru(001) was studied utilizing work function change (ΔΦ), temperature programmed desorption (TPD), and supersonic atomic beam−collision-induced desorption (CID) measurements. A kinetic model that reproduces the first bilayer growth, as determined by the ΔΦ measurements, was developed. It indicates that monomers dominate the cluster size distribution at low coverages, but at high coverages, tetramers gradually become the dominant clusters. Small contributions to ΔΦ suggest that tetramers are cyclic at the adsorbed state with inclined dipoles. CID measurements of H2O and D2O at coverages near one bilayer reveal strong selectivity to the removal of molecules in the A2 adsorption sites over those in the icelike C sites and the A1 sites. Soft removal rates of thicker ice layers as a result of CID with energetic Kripton atoms were then studied as a function of the ice layer thickness. Near the completion of the third bilayer, .
Optimizing Host-level Flash Translation Layer with Considering Storage Stack of Host Systems

Many researchers have studied and proposed various kinds of host-level flash translation layer (FTL). Host-level FTL allows the host system to handle the internal architecture of solid state drives (SSDs), and thus tries to overcome the performance or the functionality failure of traditional SSDs which only handle the I/O requests with the block I/O interface. However, existing studies only focused on the functionalities of the host-level FTL while less researches have been done on how the FTL should work on the operating system (OS) rather than bare-metal firmware. From the observation, we found that existing host-level FTL suffers from the performance bottleneck caused by unscalable software design of FTL. Therefore, we propose an optimizing scheme which efficiently processes the I/O operations requested by multiple users and guarantees the scalability of the storage stack. Our experimental results show that the performance of our scheme improves the performance of software stack in twice or more compared to the existing host-level FTL.
A vision-grounded dataset for predicting typical locations for verbs

Information about the location of an action is often implicit in text, as humans can infer it based on common sense knowledge. Today’s NLP systems however struggle with inferring information that goes beyond what is explicit in text. Selectional preference estimation based on large amounts of data provides a way to infer prototypical role ﬁllers, but text-based systems tend to underestimate the probability of the most typical role ﬁllers. We here present a new dataset containing thematic ﬁt judgments for 2,000 verb/location pairs. This dataset can be used for evaluating text-based, vision-based or multimodal inference systems for the typicality of an event’s location. We additionally provide three thematic ﬁt baselines for this dataset: a state-of-the-art neural networks based thematic ﬁt model learned from linguistic data, a model estimating typical locations based on the MSCOCO dataset and a simple combination of the systems.
Formulation and Evaluation of Herbal Eye Gel from Heliotropium indium l inn leaf extract for Conjunctivitis

Plants have played a significant role in maintaining human health and improving the quality of human life for thousands of years. The present work was designed with the aim to formulate and evaluate the ocular herbal gel containing Heliotropium indicum linn leaf extract. Cold infusion of the leaves used to remove cataract in the eye. The ocular herbal gel formulation was prepared from aqueous extract in varied concentration and was evaluated. The gel was formulated by using carbopol 934, EDTA, Benzalkonium chloride, and required amount of distilled water. Then the ocular pH 7.4 was maintained by drop wise addition of triethanolamine. The herbal ocular gels were sterilized and assessed for various parameters like clarity, pH, physical appearance, physical stability, viscosity, uniformity of drug content, spreadability and antimicrobial studies. Stability studies were carried out as per ICH guidelines for 6 months at different temperatures and humidity. The formulations in gel were found to be more stable at ambient, refrigerator and incubated temperature. The results showed that formulation glGL7 consisting aqueous leaf extract of Heliotropium indicum linn have better stability than other formulations.
Inflammation in stroke: the role of cholinergic, purinergic and glutamatergic signaling

The inflammatory response is a major factor in stroke pathophysiology and contributes to secondary neuronal damage in both acute and chronic stages of the ischemic injury. Recent work in experimental cerebral ischemia has demonstrated the involvement of neurotransmitter signaling in the modulation of neuroinflammation. The present review discusses recent findings on the therapeutic potential and diagnostic perspectives of cholinergic, purinergic and glutamatergic receptors and transporters in experimental stroke. It provides evidence of the role of neurotransmission signaling as a promising inflammatory biomarker in stroke. Finally, recent molecular imaging studies using positron emission tomography of cholinergic receptors and glutamatergic transporters are outlined along with their potential as novel anti-inflammatory therapy to reduce the outcome of cerebral ischemia.
A low cost genetic algorithm based control scheme for wheelchair control in hospital environment

In this paper, a control strategy is proposed for assisting patients, with wheelchairs, to move around within a hospital. The strategy is tested using a mobile robot that is navigated in a hospital while using obstacle avoidance scheme. The mobile robot is operated using both genetic algorithm and A* algorithm for a thorough comparison of both schemes. The comparison of the results confirmed that genetic algorithm give a far better solution for motion planning of a wheelchair in a hospital environment.
Histomorphometric and mineral degradation study of Ossceram: a novel biphasic B-tricalcium phosphate, in critical size defects in rabbits.

OBJECTIVE To carry out a histomorphometric analysis of a new highly porous (95%) biphasic calcium phosphate (hydroxyapatite 60%/B-tricalcium phosphate 40%), used to fill critical size defects in rabbit tibiae, supplementing histomorphometric findings with radiographic thermal imaging, EDX analysis and Ca/P ratio mapping at different time stages. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two critical size defects of 6 mm diameter were created in both tibiae of 21 New Zealand rabbits, test group (Ossceram) and control group. Histomorphometric, radiographic thermal imaging, EDX and element mapping analysis were performed at 15, 30 and 60 days after graft insertion. RESULTS Histomorphometric analysis at 30 days showed more new bone formation in defects filled with Ossceram 4.41 ± 0.23 mm than the test group 1.94 ± 0. 28 mm (P<0.05). Element analysis revealed higher percentages of Ca (42.33 ± 2.8%) and P (1.3 ± 0.8%) in the test group than in the control group (P<0.05). Element mapping showed that Ca and P were concentrated in medullar and cortical zones in the test group but were concentrated only in cortical zones in the control group. Test group histomorphometry at 60 days showed complete closure of the cortical defect 5.37 ± 0.32 mm more than the control group 2.3 ± 0.54 mm. There was no cortical defect closure or medullar bone formation in the control group (P<0.05). Element analysis revealed higher percentages of Ca (32.26 ± 21.7%) and P (1.5 ± 0.3%) in the test group than in the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Defects of a critical size in a rabbit tibia model can be sealed using a highly porous biphasic calcium phosphate; this supports new bone formation, creates a bridge between borders and facilitates bone ingrowth. Furthermore, this study observed partial dissolution of the mineral phase of the graft material and its incorporation into the surrounding bone. Radiographic thermal imaging may be used to supplement histological and chemical analyses.
Research Incentive Policies: A Critical Review Based on the Theory of Contracts (in Spanish)

Universities in Colombia initially focused on teaching. Some of them, both public and private, have reconsidered their vision and have been trying to develop policies to incorporate research among their priorities. Clear mechanisms of incentives for publications have been designed, with the aim of involving the faculty in the production of knowledge and divulging results through national and international indexed journals, books based on research findings, participation in conferences and academic events. This article aims to highlight the value of contract theory in order to understand the policy of incentives for research in universities, conducting a review of major theoretical contributions to moral hazard problems and discussing policies of incentives for research in the light of these concepts.
White Noise Spectra Obtained in a Phase-Locked Loop Operating Like a Josephson Junction

White noise obtained as the chaotic oscillations in a phase-locked loop (PLL) in which the dynamics is compatible with that of a Josephson junction is studied experimentally. Focusing on an analogy between the PLL and the washboard model, several types of signals to drive the PLL are examined, and the driving frequency dependence of the appearance of unbounded chaotic oscillations closely related to the white noise is investigated. Consequently, it is considered that the washboard structure in the dynamics of the PLL dominates the white noise generation, and the mathematical function of the driving signal affects its parameter dependence. The frequency characteristics of power spectrum dependence of the power spectrum of the chaotic oscillation in the high frequency region is also discussed. Moreover, a frequency modulated driving signal seems to remarkably broaden the parameter region where the white noise is obtained if compare with periodic driving signals.
Proximity, Politics and Policy Attitudes in the North American Context

The study of mass public opinion and political behaviour has developed a substantial corpus of theoretical claims and empirical results linking political, attitudinal and demographic variables to different policy attitudes. Still, the research literature has, to date, paid scant attention to how space – that is, proximity and distance to salient geographic features – influences policy attitudes. Research in political behaviour has long proceeded as though policy attitudes among mass publics ‚come from nowhere. ‛ The unifying argument of the four articles comprising this thesis is that mass public opinion does indeed come from somewhere: spatial dynamics matter for policy attitudes in a variety of domains. The articles develop the argument that spatial proximity to geographic features act as an indirect measure of intergroup contact, localized knowledge, issue awareness, and issue salience. The articles deal with three substantive topics: the Canada–United States relationship, attitudes toward energy transportation infrastructure, and attitudes toward immigration policy. Specifically, the thesis draws on survey data to investigate: (1) the mutual perceptions of the Canadian and American publics, (2) Canadian attitudes toward North American integration, (3) attitudes toward the Keystone XL pipeline in the United States, and (4) American attitudes toward illegal immigration. The major finding in each article is an interactive relationship between proximity and political attitudes: depending on the political context, proximity serves to either amplify or mute the effects of political party identification or ideology on policy attitudes. An innovative aspect of this research is the integration of spatial data through geocoding (appending latitude–longitude coordinates to) respondent-level data and calculating distances to relevant geographic features (e.g., the Canada–United States border, oil pipelines and the United States–Mexico border).
Two infinite families of resonant solutions for the Gross-Pitaevskii equation

We consider the two-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation describing a Bose-Einstein condensate in an isotropic harmonic trap. In the small coupling regime, this equation is accurately approximated over long times by the corresponding nonlinear resonant system whose structure is determined by the fully resonant spectrum of the linearized problem. We focus on two types of consistent truncations of this resonant system: first, to sets of modes of fixed angular momentum, and second, to excited Landau levels. Each of these truncations admits a set of explicit analytic solutions with initial conditions parametrized by three complex numbers. Viewed in position space, the fixed angular momentum solutions describe modulated oscillations of dark rings, while the excited Landau level solutions describe modulated precession of small arrays of vortices and antivortices. We place our findings in the context of similar results for other spatially confined nonlinear Hamiltonian systems in recent literature.

Making Higher Education Finance Work for Africa

This paper identifies the twin problems of higher education financing in Africa—inadequate resources and poor use of existing resources—and traces them to the preponderance of free, public tertiary education in most countries, despite a weak economic rationale for such an approach and unintended consequences of inequitable access and politicization of higher education. It proposes a reform of higher education finance based on principles of rationalizing government's role, taking into account the politics of such reforms and the institutional changes needed for a well-functioning system of tertiary education in Africa.
The Intracellular Juxtamembrane Domain of the Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) Receptor Is Responsible for the Allosteric Regulation of EGF Binding*♦

We have previously shown that the binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to its receptor can best be described by a model that involves negative cooperativity in an aggregating system (Macdonald, J. L., and Pike, L. J. (2008) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 105, 112–117). However, despite the fact that biochemical analyses indicate that EGF induces dimerization of its receptor, the binding data provided no evidence for positive linkage between EGF binding and dimer assembly. By analyzing the binding of EGF to a number of receptor mutants, we now report that in naive, unphosphorylated EGF receptors, ligand binding is positively linked to receptor dimerization but the linkage is abolished upon autophosphorylation of the receptor. Both phosphorylated and unphosphorylated EGF receptors exhibit negative cooperativity, indicating that mechanistically, cooperativity is distinct from the phenomenon of linkage. Nonetheless, both the positive linkage and the negative cooperativity observed in EGF binding require the presence of the intracellular juxtamembrane domain. This indicates the existence of inside-out signaling in the EGF receptor system. The intracellular juxtamembrane domain has previously been shown to be required for the activation of the EGF receptor tyrosine kinase (Thiel, K. W., and Carpenter, G. (2007) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 104, 19238–19243). Our experiments expand the role of this domain to include the allosteric control of ligand binding by the extracellular domain.
Timely, Granular, and Actionable: Informatics in the Public Health 3.0 Era

Ensuring the conditions for all people to be healthy, though always the core mission of public health, has evolved in approaches in response to the changing epidemiology and challenges. In the Public Health 3.0 era, multisectorial efforts are essential in addressing not only infectious or noncommunicable diseases but also upstream social determinants of health. In this article, we argue that actionable, geographically granular, and timely intelligence is an essential infrastructure for the protection of our health today. Even though local and state efforts are key, there are substantial federal roles in accelerating data access, connecting existing data systems, providing guidance, incentivizing nonproprietary analytic tools, and coordinating measures that matter most.
Spanish HPSG Treebank based on the AnCora Corpus

This paper describes a corpus of HPSG annotated trees for Spanish that contains morphosyntactic information, annotations for semantic roles, clitic pronouns and relative clauses. The corpus is based on the Spanish AnCora corpus, which contains trees for 17,000 sentences comprising half a million words, and it has CFG style annotations. The corpus is stored in two different formats: An XML dialect that is the direct serialization of the typed feature structure trees, and an HTML format that is suitable for visualizing the trees in a browser.
Do Unemployment Insurance Recipients Actively Seek Work? Randomized Trials in Four U.S. States

In the last two decades, U.S. policies have moved from the use of incentives to the use of sanctions to promote work effort in social programs. Surprisingly, except for anecdotes, there is very little systematic evidence of the extent to which sanctions applied to the abusive use of social entitlements result in greater work effort. In this paper we report the results of randomized trials designed to measure whether stricter enforcement and verification of work search behavior alone decreases unemployment (UI) claims and benefits. These experiments were designed to explicitly test claims based on non-experimental data failure of claimants to actively seek work. Our results provide no support for the view that the failure to actively seek work has been a cause of overpayment in the UI system.
Secured Load Rebalancing for Distributed Files System in Cloud

: In cloud computing application, distributed file system is very core technology. The file system is used for node storage and performs many functionalities of computing applications, such applications is rely on the MapReduce programming and having a number of chunks that are allocated in each nodes. A node accepts the MapReduce program that performs in parallel. Failure of nodes may be recovered in cloud computing environment also replaced and added the nodes. In computing environment, it dynamically created, added, deleted or modified the files also in the nodes It results in load imbalance in a distributed file system; that is, the file chunks are not distributed correctly among all the nodes . This overall performance carried out in load rebalancing and that should be in distributed file system. But in cloud computing application dynamically load rebalancing is a challenging problem, so for this load rebalancing has the more efficiency that makes cloud computing more efficient and improves user satisfaction. It includes scalability, flexibility, fault tolerance, high availability, reduced overhead for users, reduced cost of ownership, on demand services etc. For load imbalance we proposed a secure and highly developed load rebalancing algorithm that merges with the RSA encryption algorithm. The appearance of showing result that performs the survey of distributed system in terms of security parameters for our proposed scheme. For our propose work we are implementing in distributed file system of the Hadoop which is help the progress of investigated the natural world for a cluster.
Barbershop Prostate Cancer Education: Factors Associated With Client Knowledge

The purpose of this paper is to identify characteristics of Black barbershop clients and barbers in an urban Midwestern city participating in a health promotion program called Affecting Cancer Together (ACT) that are associated with client knowledge about prostate cancer. Statistical analyses examined client and barber characteristics for their potential association with client prostate cancer knowledge, while controlling for ACT variables. Study findings suggested clients who are married (β = 0.99; CI [0.38, 1.59]; p < .01) and have higher levels of education (β = 0.34; CI [0.01, 0.67]; p = .04) may be more likely to know more about prostate cancer. Barbers with at least “some college” education may be more effective in increasing client knowledge (β = 0.85; CI [0.05, 1.64]; p = .04). Trained peer-helper programs may consider prioritizing limited educational resources for barbers with at least some college education and incorporating the social support of spouses for making informed decisions. Considering the potential of barbershop programs to reach Black men about a serious racially disproportionate health issue, ameliorating adoption, implementation, effectiveness, and sustainment are an important public health priority for underserved populations.
