The Father I Knew: Early Paternal Engagement Moderates the Long-term Relationship between Paternal Accessibility and Childhood Behavioral Difficulties

The long-term impact of a father’s involvement in offspring development is understudied. The current study investigated the relations between early paternal engagement (i.e., the amount of time fathers engaged in one-to-one activity with their child), paternal accessibility (i.e., fathers’ physical proximity to their children) and later child behavioral difficulties. Data were obtained from five phases of the Auckland Birthweight Collaborative (ABC) longitudinal cohort study: at the study children’s birth; at 12 months; 3.5 years; 7 years; and 11 years of age. Moderated linear regression analyses revealed that there was a negative, long-term effect of paternal departure from the family household (i.e., reduced paternal accessibility) by 3.5 years of age on children’s total behavioral difficulties and conduct problems scores, but only if departed fathers had been highly engaged during the child’s first year of life. These findings suggest that the relationship between paternal accessibility and paternal engagement is potentially more nuanced than previously thought.
The Role of Clinical Pharmacist in Reducing Drug Related Problems in Hemodialysis Patients

Abstract Prescribing drugs to patients to treat ailments or reducing their morbidity may not be enough, even if the drugs were all indicated and in the right dose. Clinical pharmacists play a pivotal role in conducting information and instruction to patients and conveying feedback to treating physician when appropriate, and the final goal is in the interest of the patient. Identification and classification of drug related problems and discussing them with the health care providers. Prospective, interventional, clinical study for 180 hemodialysis patients, and was designed as two phases, an observational phase to identify drug related problems and classifying them according to the latest Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe classification, an interventional phase to increase the awareness of patients and the nephrologists about those problems and proposing a proper solution for each one. The main drug related problems was related to the effect of drug treatment being not optimal in 58.7%, followed by no effect in 17.8%, and least for unrelated symptoms or indications in 4.8%; causes were inappropriate combination and patients taking less drug than prescribed (both 17.4%), followed by no/or incomplete drug treatment in spite of existing indication in 12.2%, drug without indication in 10.4%. Erythropoietin and calcium were the most frequently drugs with problems. Acceptance and full implementation were observed in 34.3%, while half of the drug related problems had unknown implementation (51.3%). There were significant numbers of drug related problems among Iraqi patients on hemodialysis, the use of erythropoietin, calcium carbonate and sevelamer was responsible for most of inappropriate combinations. Physicians and clinical pharmacist cooperation was excellent. Keywords: Drug related problems, Hemodialysis, Clinical pharmacist.
Hidden Engineers and Service Providers: Earthworms in Agricultural Land-Use Types of South Tyrol, Italy

Earthworm activities affect the provision of many ecosystem services. Land use can strongly influence earthworm communities and, hence related soil functions. We assessed earthworm biomass, abundance, and species composition on grasslands, apple orchards, and vineyards in the context of an existing sustainability assessment tool in South Tyrol, Italy. A stratified sampling campaign revealed significant differences in earthworm distribution. We found 21 to 700 individuals m−2 in grasslands and surprisingly abundant earthworm communities in apple orchards (14 to 382 individuals m−2). Results for vineyards were ambiguous with no or very low abundance in 47% of the vineyards and a maximum of 396 individuals m−2. Mesohumic endogeic species were the most abundant functional group observed (75% of the biomass in grasslands, 50% in apple orchards and vineyards). Aporrectodea caliginosa was the most abundant endogeic species, Lumbricus rubellus the dominant polyhumic endogeic species in all land-use types. We estimated a total of 34,900 t of earthworm biomass on agricultural areas in South Tyrol corresponding to a total value of EUR 872 million. Although soil quality is a complex concept that cannot be captured with a single indicator, earthworms are suitable and feasible indicators for sustainable soil use at the landscape scale.
Microbial Evaluation of the Biotransfer Potential from Surfaces with Bacillus Biofilms after Rinsing and Cleaning Procedures in Closed Food-Processing Systems.

The biotransfer potential in food processing is defined as the ability of the microorganisms present on equipment surfaces both before and after cleaning procedures to contaminate products during processing. Growth of Bacillus biofilms was detectable on both stainless-steel and Teflon© surfaces after all the cleaning procedures. B. cereus and B. subtilis cells adhered more firmly to unsoiled than to soiled surfaces, whereas B. thuringiensis adhered most firmly to soiled surfaces. The results showed that the removal of biofilms from surfaces was more difficult from stainless steel because the microorganisms were attached more tenaciously to rough surfaces. Biofilms were cleaned most effectively from unsoiled surfaces with a simple rinsing procedure; thus the mechanical forces of the flow are very important in the cleaning. The chemical and heat treatments used for cleaning had the greatest impact on the abundance of living microorganisms. All the procedures tested did not remove biofilm material effectively from the surfaces. Significantly more cells were removed when the alkaline phase in the alkaline-acid treatment of the cleaning-in-place (CIP) procedure was prolonged, and ethylene diaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) was used.
Assessment of Heavy Metals in Different Parts of Ruta chalepensis L. Rutaceae Medicinal Plant and Soil Samples Collected from Three Selected Zones in Jordan

ABSTRACT Different parts of Ruta chalepensis L. medicinal plant and soil samples collected from three zones in Jordan (Irbid, Al-Mafraq, and Ma'an) were analyzed for determination of Pb, Cu, Zn, Cd, Ni, and Fe by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). Heavy metal levels in washed and unwashed parts of R. chalepensis were evaluated and compared statistically. Results show that there was a variation in heavy metal concentrations related to washed and unwashed parts of R. chalepensis in the three zones. Moreover, Pb, Zn, Cu, Cd, and Ni were concentrated in the following order: flowers > leaves > stems, whereas Fe was concentrated in the following order: leaves > flowers > stems. Two standard reference materials of plant (SRM 1790a; spinach, CRM 281; ryegrass) and a standard reference material of soil (GBW 07406) were examined to validate the method used. Results indicate that high recoveries were obtained. Significant variation existed in metal content in different parts of R. chalepensis L. for the various locations (P ≤ 0.05).
Truth and post-truth in the environmentalism debate

The topic of this conference, nurturing young Muslims in the post-truth era, is interesting but also challenging. In today’s world, youngsters everywhere use social media and are confronted with fake news. I contribute to this topic from a perspective that I am familiar with the environmentalism debate. This is a debate in which the boundary between truth and post-truth is blurred. In what follows, I will discuss four topics: truth and post-truth; fact and frame; optimism and pessimism; reality and representation.
Potential of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) as alternative protein source in salmonid feeds - A review

The current constant pressure on fishmeal production for aquaculture feeds stresses the need to search for alternative sources of protein. A possible protein ingredient is insect meal, being more cost effective than fishmeal and soybean meal. Black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae meal is used in many studies with positive results regarding the bioproductive performances of salmonids. The balanced amino acid profile is comparable with the one of soybean meal. The crude protein and amino acid digestibility is high and similar to that of fishmeal. For rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), the protein biological value of the larvae is qualitatively lower than that of fishmeal. Atlantic salmon fed with experimental diets with larvae meal showed high bioproductive performances and a better protein biological value compared with salmon fed with a standard fishmeal diet. However, the nutritional quality and chemical composition of the larvae can be drastically improved through the feeding media, which make it a very interesting candidate as a substitute for fishmeal. The aim of this review is to present the current stage of H. illucens use in salmonid feeds, detailing the chemical composition and protein quality. Furthermore, the effect of larvae meal based diets on salmonids is presented.
The electric field in capacitively coupled RF discharges: a smooth step model that includes thermal and dynamic effects

The electric field in radio-frequency driven capacitively coupled plasmas (RF-CCP) is studied, taking thermal (finite electron temperature) and dynamic (finite electron mass) effects into account. Two dimensionless numbers are introduced, the ratios ϵ=λD/l ? > of the electron Debye length λD ? > to the minimum plasma gradient length l (typically the sheath thickness) and η=ωRF/ωpe ? > of the RF frequency ωRF ? > to the electron plasma frequency ωpe ? >. Assuming both numbers small but finite, an asymptotic expansion of an electron fluid model is carried out up to quadratic order inclusively. An expression for the electric field is obtained which yields (i) the space charge field in the sheath, (ii) the generalized Ohmic and ambipolar field in the plasma, and (iii) a smooth interpolation for the transition in between. The new expression is a direct generalization of the Advanced Algebraic Approximation (AAA) proposed by the same author (2009 J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. 42 194009), which can be recovered for η→0 ? >, and of the established Step Model (SM) by Godyak (1976 Sov. J. Plasma Phys. 2 78), which corresponds to the simultaneous limits η→0 ? >, ϵ→0 ? >. A comparison of the hereby proposed Smooth Step Model (SSM) with a numerical solution of the full dynamic problem proves very satisfactory.
Advanced scene aware navigation for the heavy duty off-road vehicle Unimog

This paper describes a novel approach for scene aware navigation in rough off-road environments using behavior-based control, graph-like world descriptions, and ontologies to determine correlations of surrounding objects and environmental properties. A geometry-based obstacle segmentation and convolutional neural networks for classification determine available scene items integrated into low and higher-level scene representations that are processed by a semantic control. Additionally, the surface's shape, vehicle kinematics, and dynamics and object properties are considered for the planning of low-level trajectories that are hierarchically integrated into the framework. The approach was implemented using behavior-based control and was evaluated using a Unimog U5023 off-road truck in simulation and real-world scenarios.

Soil and land Suitability Assessments towards Sustainable Rice Production in the Northern Zone of Ghana

Rice has become the second most important cereal crop and a primary staple food in Ghana. However, domestic rice production falls below its demand, resulting in over 50% rice import per annum. The Government of Ghana has responded by introducing policies to intensify domestic rice production, especially in Ghana's northern zone, where over 50% of local rice is produced. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify and classify soils within the catchment areas of Lonto, Sabonjida, Buntum, Djadema and Wiesi towns in Northern Ghana. The soils were then evaluated for their suitability for valley rice production, under irrigation. The study identified eight soil types (Lima, Lima-variant, Sirru, Lapliki, Kpelesawgu, Changnalili, Kasele and Wenchi series) in the selected study areas. Lima series was the most extensive soil type and was found at all the sites except Djadema site. The soils were generally rated moderately suitable for rice, with the most suitable soils being Sirru and Lapliki series. Groundwater lateritic soils of Changnalili and Kasele series were rated not to be suitable. The general fertility of the soils was low, which calls for sound soil nutrient and water management. The study is expected to serve as baseline information to help guide decisions of improving per capita rice yield and reducing household food insecurity and poverty levels in Northern Ghana.
A Study to Define Critical Current Limit for Covetic Al Formation

This paper presents the production steps of Al covetic material, as well as a margin for the critical current in its production process along with stress-strain mechanical measurement results. As the need for energy is increasing every day, it is getting important not only its production but also its transmission in power grids. Covetic metals, one alternate to superconductors, show high electrical conductivity property for that purpose. During covetic production, a metal matrix is first melted and then mixed with Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) before a high DC current is applied to the molten material. The role of this DC current is important in covetic material production and still under investigation. In the course of study, covetic samples have been produced for four different current values, namely 100A, 200A, 300A and 400A, applied for 10 minutes, and one sample without a DC current, all having CNT-Al mixing ratio of 1% by weight. Another sample was also produced without CNT doping for comparison purposes. Obtained results have showed that covetic material formation takes place for DC current values greater than or equal to 200A based on conductivity comparison of the samples. It is also observed that covetic materials show increased flexibility.
Haosul hazardului sau cosmosul determinismului?

Tot ceea ce există decurge din ceva anterior și se supune unor factori determinanți, adică are antecedenți și cauze, care dețin antecedenți și cauze, indiferent de dificultatea de a analiza exhaustiv elementele lanțului cauzal (adică de a le cuantifica forțele, ierarhia, și ponderile, de a le stabili gradele de conjuncție, interdeterminare și colaborare, de a le monitoriza, matematiza și algortimiza componentele), nimic nefiind aleatoriu și lipsit de determinare. O astfel de dificultate sau de imposibilitate nu poate genera sau constitui motiv de a concluziona că astfel de procese complexe ar fi indeterminate și aleatorii, întrucît ele sînt riguros determinate de o multitudine de factori inextricabil întrețesuți.
Effects of decreasing oxygen levels in the storage atmosphere on the respiration of Idared apples

Based on the concept of dynamic CA-storage, the effect of decreasing oxygen levels in the storage atmosphere has been assessed for ‘Idared’ apples, taking into account the harvest date, storage duration and storage conditions of the sample fruit prior to measurements (regular atmosphere (RA) or low oxygen (LO)-conditions at 4°C). For all sample fruit tested, an anaerobic compensation point (ACP) could be detected, which is the O2 concentration below which CO2 production increased significantly. Level of CO2 production below the ACP was dependent on rate of oxygen reduction, degree of maturity, storage duration of the sample fruit and the previous storage conditions. For fruit stored under RA-conditions, the ACP shifted towards higher oxygen levels after 5–9 months of storage.
Italian Pediatricians are Largely Against Alternative Weaning of the Infant: A Survey

1) Background: Parents are increasingly fascinated by alternative weaning methods, such as ba-by-led or vegetarian weaning. However, international pediatric societies are still cautious to-wards alternative weaning methods, due to their significant risk of nutritional deficiencies. The aim of this study is to describe the attitude of Italian pediatricians towards unconventional weaning, with particular regard to vegetarian and baby-led. (2) Methods: A 20-question ques-tionnaire was sent to Italian pediatricians, from January to December 2019; (3) Results: Responses were received from 73/1000 (7.3%) pediatricians. The vast majority of surveyed pediatricians (78.1%) is familiar with baby-led and vegetarian weaning, but only 24.7% is in favor of their practice. A significant number of pediatricians (63.0%) received request from parents for an al-ternative weaning regimen. (4) Conclusions: The survey revealed a significant gap between pedi-atricians’ attitude and parental demand concerning unconventional weaning. This could signifi-cantly impair the alliance between parents and pediatricians with the risk to expose infants and children to severe nutritional deficiencies due to self-management by parents with poor surveil-lance from health professionals.

Isso so foi possivel a partir da mudanca da ferramenta de ensino, que, no caso desta investigacao, foram os jogos on-line. Alem do mais, algumas questoes foram evidenciadas, tais quais: ate quando o ensino de ingles sera resignado para os discentes? Ate que ponto as politicas publicas educacionais estarao omissas a esses jovens que desejam aprender a lingua estrangeira para galgar outros espacos? Essas perguntas representam reflexoes desencadeadas ao fim da pesquisa e como tais precisam ser respondidas.
Overcoming University Students’ Alternative Conceptions in Newtonian Mechanics

Students’ alternative frameworks and prior conceptions about interactions forces «traditionally, known as Newton's third law» have been largely investigated. The various investigations clearly show that students very often fail to apply Newton’s laws of motion in general to everyday situations and third law in particular. This study highlights some of the serious difficulties students undergo with reciprocal interactions and circular motions, taking advantage of previous studies and/or surveys we managed to reveal and identify a wide range of misconceptions among students, enabling teachers to set appropriate strategies to overcome them. Closely related to students’ misconceptions in Newton’s law of motion, there are still serious difficulties facing students to differentiate between real and fictitious forces, especially when tackling dynamics problems involving circular motion. An approach to teaching mutual interactions and the meaning of centripetal force is suggested that focuses on reconsidering and/or refining students' intuitive thinking on the nature of mutual interactions. However, the essence of this argument is that the teaching of science is not a process by which the wrong ideas are substituted by the correct ones; but students should know where they went wrong and why.
A SIMULATION STUDY ON NEUROMUSCULAR FACTORS AFFECTING CONSECUTIVE MOTOR UNIT ACTION POTENTIAL WAVESHAPE

Quantification of consecutive motor unit potential (MUP) is used to diagnose and monitor the progress of neuromuscular pathologies in clinical applications. In this study, a detailed motor unit simulation was conducted to reveal and understand the factors affecting MUPs. Using a volume conductor model and real muscle parameters, normal and pathologic MUPs were created. The shape changes observed in consecutive MUPs, called jiggle, are calculated with a quantification method. Increased jitter duration and re-innervation percentage commonly observed during motor unit loss increase the jiggle value proportionally. Moreover, increasing fiber density changing different regions of a muscle bundle decreases the jiggle value. The blocking phenomena generally observed in re-innervated fibers affects the jiggle value similar to jitter duration. But, higher blocking levels (50%) of re-innervated motor fiber do not have an effect on jiggle value as lower levels of blocking (20%). In conclusion, simulation of pathological MUPs showed that it is useful for clinicians to understand the progress of a neuromuscular pathology and the factors affecting consecutive MUP wave shape.
