Lymphomatoid papulosis associated with Hodgkin lymphoma

Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP), a recurrent spontaneous regressing papulonodular skin eruption with a chronic course, is one of the CD30-positive lymphoproliferative disorders (LPDs), among which are primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) and borderline cases. LyP is known to increase the risk of malignant lymphoma, such as mycosis fungoides, ALCL, and Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) [1-3]. HL is characterized by CD30-positive Hodgkin/ReedSternberg (HRS) cells and is rare among the East Asian population [4]. Herein, we report a Japanese case of LyP associated with HL.
PROTOCOL: A comparison of the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural interventions based on delivery features for elevated symptoms of depression in adolescents

Abstract This is the protocol for a Campbell review. The primary aim is to estimate the relative efficacy of different modes of CBT delivery compared with control conditions for reducing depressive symptoms in adolescents. The secondary aim is to compare the different modes of delivery with regards to intervention completion/attrition (used as a proxy for intervention acceptability). The review will provide relative effect estimates and ranking probabilities for each outcome based on intervention delivery.
PI Controller Design for Networked Control Systems with Random Time Delay

This paper presents an approach to PI controller design for networked control systems(NCSs) with random timedelay. In the proposed approach, the time delay induced by the closed loop over the network is supposed to be bounded, and its upper bound is known. A PI controller is designed for the control of the system with the maximum time delay using a practical approach based on stability region locus. The obtained PI controller is then used to control the actual networked control system. To show the validity and effectiveness of the proposed approach, asimulation example in Matlab/Simulink and TrueTime is given.
Chronic pain, substance abuse and depression: Unfolding the common linkage

The population bears a huge psychological, social and financial burden due to chronic pain and with its comorbidities it further adds to this burden. There are high rates of co-occurrence of depression and substance abuse, which are often overlooked. Therefore, patients presenting with pain or depression or substance abuse or a combination of these need to be evaluated thoroughly for the presence of the others. We report a case of a patient with primary complaints of pain and depressive symptoms with opioid and benzodiazepine abuse for over 16-18 years and discuss the neurobiological linkage between the three comorbid conditions.
Effect of various techniques of Anesthesia in elective Caesarian section on short term Neonatal outcome

Introduction: The basic aim of obstetric anesthesia is to provide adequate maternal pain relief with no deleterious effect on mother and newborn. This study aimed to assess the effect of spinal anesthesia, epidural anesthesia and general anesthesia using thiopentone sodium as induction agent on neonates delivered after elective caesarian section. Materials and methods: This is a prospective descriptive study at a tertiary care teaching hospital from June 2013 to May 2014. 60 cases of elective caesarian section admitted in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology were studied. Patients were randomly divided into 3 groups each of 20 cases. Group 1 received spinal anesthesia, group 2 epidural anesthesia and group 3 general anesthesia. Neonatal outcome was assessed in relation to anesthetic techniques used. Results: The mean Apgar score at 1 min was lower in GA group (7 +/- 1.025) than in spinal anesthesia group (8.1+/- 0.78) and epidural anesthesia group (8.35 +/- 0.745). Total 3/60 (5%) neonates required resuscitation at birth all of which were in GA group. Induction delivery interval of 20 min was associated with need for resuscitation at birth. Moderate depression of neonates (1 min Apgar score of 4-6) was observed in 2/20 (10%) neonates in group 3. Conclusion: Neonates born by elective LSCS under GA have lower 1 min Apgar scores. Induction delivery interval of 20 min is associated with need for resuscitation at birth in neonates in GA group. These effects can be minimized by maintaining the ID interval between 5 – 15 minutes.
Views and Attitudes Toward Breastfeeding in Public Places

Breastfeeding is a special process for the mother and the baby. The initiation and maintenance of breastfeeding are influenced by many physiological, psychological, and socio-cultural factors. One of these factors is breastfeeding in public places. Breastfeeding in public places has become an increasingly important topic and has been subjected to a wide range of coverage in the media. This is a systematic review of the results of studies involving the views and attitudes of people toward breastfeeding in public. Sixteen studies that provided the study criteria were taken into consideration. The studies on breastfeeding in public were made between 1999-2019. They were designed both qualitatively and quantitatively. The sample groups were composed of the general society, university students, pregnant women, mothers, business managers, and employees, with comments in forums. In the studies investigated, the public stated that mothers have the right to breastfeed (37%-50%) and need a special area for breastfeeding (37%-97%). In addition to this view, there were some individuals who did not support mothers because of the embarrassment of breastfeeding in public. While 33%48% of employees supported breastfeeding at the mothers’ workplaces such as shopping centers and restaurants, some of the employees opted to direct mothers to a special area for breastfeeding or to give up breastfeeding. While university students supported a mother’s right to breastfeed in public, the proportion of supporters increased when a private environment was provided. Mothers generally show a positive attitude. Mothers who showed negative attitudes and stated that they were not comfortable had breastfed in public before and felt vulnerable and uncomfortable in this process. Studies involving the views and attitudes of society and mothers are limited. As opinions and attitudes are collected from the community, there is a need for more extensive research on this subject. The nurses should play a new role in providing awareness-raising training and support programs, taking part in the media, and creating special areas for breastfeeding.
Quantitative measurements of oxygen atom and negative ion densities in a low pressure oxygen plasma by cavity ringdown spectroscopy

In this paper we report measurements of the absolute concentration of ground state oxygen atoms produced in a low pressure (≤100 mTorr) inductively coupled oxygen plasma. These experiments have utilised cavity ringdown spectroscopy, allowing line of sight absorption to be measured on the optically forbidden 1D ← 3P transition around 630 nm. Both the translational temperature and the absolute concentrations of the two most populated spin–orbit levels (J = 1 and 2) have been determined as a function of plasma pressure at a fixed operating power of 300 W, allowing accurate determination of dissociation fraction; in all cases, the dissociation fraction is considerable, ≥10%, maximising at 15% for 20 mTorr. Time-resolved measurements of the rate of loss of the oxygen atoms when the plasma is extinguished have allowed the probability for wall-loss in the plasma chamber, γ, to be determined; in this case, for an aluminium surface, γ is determined to be ca. a few ×10−3, with the exact value depending on pressure. In addition, the O− number density is shown to be an inverse function of pressure, showing a maximum of 1.6 × 1010 cm−3 at 10 mTorr, falling to 2 × 109 cm−3 at 100 mTorr, and characteristic of a discharge operating in the detachment regime. The measured number densities are interpreted using calculated electron energy distribution functions and yield physically reasonable values for the electron number density.
DOA estimation method of electronically controlled beam-scanning LWA based on ESPRIT algorithm

A novel direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation method based on electronically controlled beam scanning leaky-wave antenna (LWA) combined with estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT) algorithm is proposed. In order to implement this method, a virtual partial pattern synthesis method is presented to construct an array manifold of subarrays from LWA for the ESPRIT algorithm. Then, the multi-channel receiver model and signal subspace are established based on the beam scanning property of LWA. As the traditional array antenna is substituted by LWA, the rotation operator of the algorithm has to be changed. From this point, the preprocessing ESPRIT algorithm based on the Hadamard product is proposed to extract the directional matrix of LWA. Numerical simulations are conducted, and the DOA performance is demonstrated through estimation error, response rate, and compared with the Cramer-Rao bound. Simulation results show that the DOA method utilising LWA exhibits satisfactory estimation performance and fast response speed. In addition, the influence of antenna parameters on the estimation accuracy and the method to improve the performance of DOA estimation for LWA are discussed.
STRENGTH PERSPECTIVE: MEMETAKAN POTENSI PELAKU USAHA KECIL DAN MIKRO DI DESA MARGALUYU

Strength perspective leads to the view that every person, group or community actually has a source of strength, both originating from themselves and the environment around them. This view can guide every human being, group, organization, society; or other social, economic, and cultural entities that on the positive side should be the main capital to be independent, advanced and developing. Likewise in mapping microbusinesses in rural areas, where the strength perspective is closely related to empowering or empowering the business. In addition to other potential sources, such as physical, economic and cultural assets; This perspective emphasizes the need to utilize potential social assets in the community. The strength perspective is an alternative effort to map the potential of micro-small businesses in the village, so that the results are more positive and fair. Many small and micro businesses that have survived until now, prove that they have strength.

The Outcome of an Emergency Respiratory Admission Predicted by Forced Expiratory Flow (FEF 25–75)

Background: Respiratory admissions are over-represented in emergency medical admissions; we tested whether forced expiratory flow at 25 to 75% of vital capacity (FEF25-75) reflecting small airways function, was predictive of 30-day mortality outcomes. Methods: Between 2002 and 2017, there were 25,274 emergency admission episodes in 8071 patients with a primary respiratory diagnosis. We employed a logistic multiple variable regression model, to determine whether a pre-existing lung function measurement of (FEF25–75) was prognostic for 30-day hospital mortality, having adjusted for other outcome predictors including Acute Illness Severity and Case Co-morbidity / Complexity. Results: Respiratory admissions represented 23.7% of all admissions but 33.3% of readmissions. FEF25–75 values linearly and inversely predicted 30-day hospital mortality outcomes - OR 0.88 (95% CI: 0.85, 0.91); consecutive deciles (falling values) of FEF25–75 demonstrated progressively rising mortality rates. Respiratory admissions with a lower FEF25–75 status were older 70.3 yr. (IQR: 60.9, 77.7) vs. 64.5 yr. (IQR: 50.3, 76.2), had a longer hospital length of stay – 6.2 days (IQR: 3.2, 10.9) vs. 5.8 days (IQR: 2.7, 7.3%) and a higher 30-day hospital episode mortality – 3.2% vs. 2.6%. The range of per patient mortality prediction was from decile 1 (lowest FEF25–75 function) 17.0% (95% CI: 14.9%, 19.1%), decile 5 of 11.7% (95% CI: 10.8%, 12.5%), and decile 10 of 7.0% (95% CI: 5.8%, 8.1%). Comorbidity interacted with the lung function estimate – the threshold to influence outcome negatively was reduced in those with lower FEF25–75 values. Conclusion: Baseline FEF25–75 linearly and inversely predicted 30-day hospital mortality outcomes. Outcomes in those with lower FEF25–75 parameter showed Comorbidity dependence. Key Words: Lung function, FEF25–75, Mortality Outcomes, Comorbidity Score.
Optimization of multi-scale segmentation of satellite imagery using fractal geometry

ABSTRACT After decades of research, optimal scale selection for image segmentation remains a key scientiﬁc problem in image analysis. In order to contribute to a solution, a new method was developed in this research, based on the use of fractal dimension as an indicator of optimality. First, the image is partitioned according to the rank-size rule (stemming from the Zipf’s law), to detect a set of scales corresponding to constant fractal dimension over image rescaling; these scales are defined as ‘optimal’. Then, the detected scales are transferred to the segmentation process through the projection of every partition head group to the entire image; this can be seen as a topological transformation. The Fractal Net Evolution Assessment (FNEA) is applied as a segmentation algorithm. The new method was structured as a mathematical proposition, then proved and finally was experimented with three types of satellite imagery (namely, Sentinel-2, RapidEye, and WorldView2) in four study areas with diverse land uses. In all cases, the method achieved to indicate those scales at which fractal dimension remains constant, therefore, the optimal scales. The results were verified visually and showed to be successful. Also, they were compared to pre-existing classification data, revealing high correlation between fractal dimension and classification accuracy. The new method is considered to be a generic, fully quantitative, straightforward, objective, rapid, robust, and easy to apply image segmentation tool.
A magnetic screw pump for magnetorheological clutch durability enhancement

Magnetorheological clutches have great potential for demanding applications such as powertrains and aircraft primary flight controls. However, in such high-power applications (>1 kW), durability is a challenge because of the continuous slippage at the clutch shear interface. To improve durability, this research studies the potential of using a magnetic screw pump to promote fluid mixing within a magnetorheological clutch. The screw flights are made of magnetorheological fluid formed by the concentration of the magnetic field lines around helical grooves machined into the shear interface (drum) of the clutch. While the magnetic pump does not display a typical screw pump behavior, a semi-empirical yield screw pump model is proposed to better understand the macroscopic behavior. Experimental flow characterization results show that the pressure–flow relation is significantly affected by the number of grooves, magnetic field intensity, and rotational speed. For a clutch containing 50 mL of magnetorheological fluid, maximum flow rates of up to 25 mL/min and a maximum pressure of 150 kPa are achieved. Finally, durability test results show that the magnetic screw pump can increase durability by up to 42% when compared to a standard magnetorheological clutch, confirming that such a device is a viable solution for promoting durability.
Fast full-body reconstruction for a functional human RPC-PET imaging system using list-mode simulated data and its applicability to radiation oncology and radiology

Single-bed whole-body positron emission tomography based on resistive plate chamber detectors (RPC-PET) has been proposed for human studies, as a complementary resource to scintillator-based PET scanners. The purpose of this work is mainly about providing a reconstruction solution to such whole-body single-bed data collection on an event-by-event basis. We demonstrate a fully three-dimensional time-of-flight (TOF)-based reconstruction algorithm that is capable of processing the highly inclined lines of response acquired from a system with a very large axial field of view, such as those used in RPC-PET. Such algorithm must be sufficiently fast that it will not compromise the clinical workflow of an RPC-PET system. We present simulation results from a voxelized version of the anthropomorphic NCAT phantom, with oncological lesions introduced into critical regions within the human body. The list-mode data was reconstructed with a TOF-weighted maximum-likelihood expectation maximization (MLEM). To accelerate the reconstruction time of the algorithm, a multi-threaded approach supported by graphical processing units (GPUs) was developed. Additionally, a TOF-assisted data division method is suggested that allows the data from nine body regions to be reconstructed independently and much more rapidly. The application of a TOF-based scatter rejection method reduces the overall body scatter from 57.1% to 32.9%. The results also show that a 300-ps FWHM RPC-PET scanner allows for the production of a reconstructed image in 3.5 minutes following a 7-minute acquisition upon the injection of 2 mCi of activity (146 M coincidence events). We present for the first time a full realistic reconstruction of a whole body, long axial coverage, RPC-PET scanner. We demonstrate clinically relevant reconstruction times comparable (or lower) to the patient acquisition times on both multi-threaded CPU and GPU.
Conflicting Roles of CIOs and their Negative Effects on the Workplace of the Future

Demographic change is forcing companies to find new ways to attract skilled knowledge-workers to safeguard strong economic performance. In particular, in the case of younger generations, companies have the opportunity to increase their attractiveness apart from usual incentives like a high salary by addressing these generations’ altered expectations towards their professional life and their work-life balance. Recent studies show, however, that companies often struggle to implement the necessary information technology. Drawing on role theory and existing literature, we developed a role framework to identify intra-role conflicts perceived by the chief information officers and inter-role conflicts between the IT and other departments. Through qualitative interviews with representatives from five companies, we identify numerous role conflicts, particularly common in smaller companies and companies managed by their owners. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.
Expression profiling of the CHS8, CHI1A, IFS2, and CHR genes in black soybean seed [Glycine max (L). Merr.] of F4 generation

Black soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merr. ] produces isoflavones as secondary metabolites, which have many benefits for human health and plant defense system. Expression profiling can guide potential work in functional genomics of the isoflavone biosynthesis pathway. Previous studies showed the vital role of the CHS8, CHI1A, and IFS 2 genes in isoflavone biosynthesis. However, expression profiling of these genes in the local black soybean varieties is still limited. This study investigated the gene expression levels of the CHS8, CHI1A, IFS2, and CHR genes in local varieties, namely, UP106 (high isoflavone) and UP122 (low isoflavone) and its progenies, i.e., UP106xUP122 and UP122xUP106. Relative gene expression profiling was conducted on the basis of Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT‐PCR) with ACT2/7 as a housekeeping gene. As a result, the expression level of CHS8 in UP122 is lower than that in UP106. No significant difference in the expression level of CHI1A was observed in all samples. The expression levels of CHS8 and CHI1A in both progenies were higher than that in the parental line, whereas the expression levels of IFS2 in both progenies were lower than that in the parental line. CHS8 and IFS2 expression from UP106xUP122 was higher than that from UP122xUP106, whereas CHI1A expression from UP122xUP106 was higher than that from UP106xUP122. CHR showed a high expression in the reciprocal cross; however, this expression did not exceed from UP106. In conclusion, the crossing between parental lines did not affect the gene expression level in the isoflavone biosynthesis pathway.
A common model explaining flexible decision making, grid fields and cognitive control

A central difficulty for computational theories of planning is that the value of an action you take now depends on which actions you take afterwards. Thus, optimal actions are coupled across states. We argue that this coupling underlies a pattern of challenges for reinforcement learning models in neuroscience to explain both the brain’s flexibilities and its inflexibilities. Building on recent advances in control engineering, we propose a new model for goal-directed decision making in the brain, which unlike previous attempts, is efficient, flexible and biologically realistic. This theory connects a wide range of seemingly disparate empirical and theoretical phenomena across different areas of neuroscience, such as flexible decision making, efficient replanning, cognitive control and Pavlovian response biases. We also propose that entorhinal grid code encodes a map of state expectancies under a default policy, which provides a computational mechanism for how these cells could contribute to flexible planning.
