An impact of intimamedia thickness of carotids in cardio vascular

Low blood pressure truly includes aworse prognosis than the excessive blood strain. This mechanism,bills for the ”reverse causation ”seen within the haemodialysis’ patients, the company of conventional risk elements, such as high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and obesity, appear to be aworst diagnosis.Exogenous erythropoietic products can growth blood strain and requirement of antihypertensive tablets.30 Chronic ECFV overload secondary to activation of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axisand disturbances inside the stability of vasoconstrictors and the vasodilators make a contribution to high blood pressure. Improvement in blood pressure can be introduced out with oral sodium restriction, diuretics, and luid elimination with dialysis. Some patientswill continue to be hypertensive notwithstanding of the careful attention to ECFV reputation. LVH is related with reduced endurance of sufferers on hemo/peritoneal dialysis . Lower ive year survival charge in ESRD patients with LVH have a 30% than people missing LVH. This have a look at produces the mean carotid artery intima-medial thickness turned into higher in sufferers with superior CKD although it did now not attain statistical signi icance, probable due to smaller sample size.It was also observed that carotid intima medial thickness had no correlation with dyslipidemia. Even though the patients had maintained signi icantly normal cholesterol and high HDL levels, there was an increase in CIMT. Therefore, CKD patients, CIMT cannot be predicted based on the traditional atherosclerotic risk factors like serum cholesterol and HDL.

Preparation And Characterization Composites of Activated Carbon From Cassava Peel (Manihot Utillisima) – Copper (II) Oxide (CuO) As a Thermoelectric Material

Electrical energy is one of the energies that is needed by humans. One of the efforts to save electrical energy is by using the thermoelectric method. Thermoelectric material is a material that can convert heat energy into electrical energy through the Seebeck effect . In this study, the thermoelectric material was made from activated carbon composites of cassava peel-CuO. Activated Carbon-CuO composite material is made by mixing various mass composition ratios (grams). Composite material is tested for electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and the resulting electrical voltage ( Seebeck effect ). To see the crystal shape and size of the composite material, characterization was carried out using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and to determine the band gap of the composite material, characterization was carried out using UV- Diffuse Reflectance (UV-DRS). The results of the test show that the composite material with a ratio of grams of activated carbon: grams of CuO is the best material as a thermoelectric material because it has a high electrical conductivity value of 0.4167 MΩ-cm - with a low heat conductivity of 20.3057 J / s and with the mains voltage ( Seebeck effect ) of 0.019036 mV / K. The results of characterization using XRD showed that the addition of activated carbon to CuO did not damage the crystal form of CuO and the crystal size (D) 23,4240 and crystal size (d) 0,2521 of the composite material, namely nm and nm. The results of characterization using UV-DRS show that the band gap of the composite material is 1,63 eV. Based on the test results and characteristics, it is concluded that the CuO composite material can be used as a thermoelectric material.
Interleukin-6 and Interleukin-10 Gene Polymorphisms in Patients with Chronic Periodontitis and Response to Treatment after 3 Years.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate whether genetic susceptibility to chronic periodontitis, conferred by the presence of the IL-6 -572GG genotype or the IL-10 -592A allele, influences the outcomes following a non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT)over a long period of time. Material and methods Thirty-seven chronic periodontitis patients were divided into two groups according to genotype as susceptible (SCP) and non-susceptible (NSCP). All subjects were clinically evaluated at baseline and 3 years following NSPT. Blood samples were collected at baseline from the individuals who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. All participants received NSPT from a single periodontist who was blind to the genotype status of each patient. A statistical analysis was performed by comparing the variables between groups using the Mann-Whitney U test and between baseline and 3 years for each group using the Wilcoxon test. Results The mean age of the population was estimated to be 47.68±8.64 years and it included 51.4% females, 48.6% smokers, and 45.9% alcohol consumers. Following a genetic analysis, 70.3% of patients were homozygous carriers of the IL-6 -572G (IL-6 SCP), and 46.0% of them were carriers of the IL-10 -592A allele (IL-10 SCP). NSPT reduced all studied parameters (probing depth, attachment loss, bleeding on probing, percentage of sites with 4-6mm and ≥7mm pocket depth and attachment loss) to all participants, but the treatment outcome was not associated with the genotype. The SCP and NSCP individuals showed similar clinical parameters at baseline and at 3 years. Conclusions Within the limitations of this 3-year prospective cohort study in Caucasians diagnosed with chronic periodontitis, individuals susceptible to periodontal disease as determined by the presence of the IL-6 -572GG genotype or the IL-10 -592A allele showed similar treatment outcome following NSPT.
Automatically Diversifies XML Keyword Search

Keyword query allows ordinary users to search large amounts of data, the ambiguity of keyword query makes it difficult to respond effectively keyword queries, especially for queries short and vague key words. To resolve this problem a challenge, in this paper an approach that automatically diversify ca XML search keyword based on their different contexts in the XML data is proposed. Given a query keyword small and vague and XML data to be searched, first it is derived from the keyword search query candidates by a simple model feature selection. And then, we design a keyword search diversified XML model effective cation of measuring the quality of each candidate. After that, two efficient algorithms are proposed to calculate incrementally quelled top-k query candidates as diverse search intentions. Two criteria are targeted: the selected candidate’s consultation are most relevant to the query given before they have to cover the maximum number of different results. At last, a full assessment of the sets of real and synthetic data demonstrates the effectiveness of our model of diversification and efficiency of proposed algorithms.

The research also uses statistical methods to describe and test the differences of demographic factors with customer’s satisfaction on service quality. The analysis results show that there is no difference between customer’s satisfaction on service quality and factors such as gender, age, income, number of transaction banks, regular transaction banks, and time to use the service at Techcombank An Giang. Through the research results, the author would like to propose some ideas to improve the quality of services, thereby attracting new customers and importantly, keeping traditional customers because the development orientation of Techcombank is to take care of old customers to cross sell other products of the bank. The Stud results offer a basis for the branch to identify the factors influencing customer satisfaction on their service quality, thereby having an appropriate strategy to improve customer satisfaction.
Occupation-related musculoskeletal disorders among dental professionals

Background and aim Dentists are exposed to a wide range of work-related factors that may result in various occupational diseases of which musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are common. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and distribution of MSDs among dental professionals of our institution and to compare the prevalence of MSDs among the various dental specialists. Methods A self-administered questionnaire, which included basic demographic details, work experience in dentistry, and work profile related questions along with the Standard Nordic Questionnaire, was administered to the study participants. Statistical analysis for the data obtained was performed using SPSS Version 16.0 (Chicago, SPSS Inc.). The chi-square test was applied to test the association between MSD and variables such as gender, designation, type of dentistry and usage of computers. The Mann Whitney U test was used to assess the relationship between MSD and age, experience, sick leave, number of patients attended per day. A p-value < 0.05 was considered significant. Results 151 subjects participated in the study, and the prevalence of MSD in the last 12 months among dental professionals was 58.3% (88 out of 151 subjects). The most common site affected by MSD was the neck (66.7%). Also, it was noted that among various dental specialists, the Endodontists suffered the maximum (88.02%) musculoskeletal pain. Fifty individuals (33.11%) suffered from pain in multiple sites. Conclusion Work-related musculoskeletal disorders and pain can be reduced through proper operator-patient positioning, taking adequate breaks between patients, maintaining good physical health through regular exercises.
Optimal Diversity of Recommendation List for Recommender Systems based on the Users’Desire Diversity

Nowadays, recommender systems suggest lists of items to users considering not only accuracy but also diversity and novelty. However, suggesting the most diverse list of items to all users is not always acceptable, since different users prefer and/or tolerate different degree of diversity. Hence suggesting a personalized list with a diversity degree considering each user preference would improve the efficiency of recommender systems. The main contribution and novelty of this study is to tune the diversity degree of the recommendation list based on the users’ variety-seeking feature, which ultimately leads to users’ satisfaction. The proposed approach considers the similarity of users’ desire diversity as a new parameter in addition to the usual similarity of users in the state-of-the-art collaborative filtering algorithm. Experimental results show that the proposed approach improves the personal diversity criterion comparing to the closest method in the literature, without decreasing accuracy.
Characterization of a bacteriocin as biopreservative synthesized by indigenous lactic acid bacteria from dadih soya traditional product used in West Sumatra, Indonesia

Retnaningrum E, Yossi T, Nur'azizah R, Sapalina F, Kulla PDK. 2020. Characterization of a bacteriocin as biopreservative synthesized by indigenous lactic acid bacteria from dadih soya traditional product used in West Sumatra, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 4192-4198. A total of 4 isolates of lactic acid bacteria (strain BDL08, BDL11, BDL12, and BDL13) isolated from dadih soya were investigated for the ability to produce bacteriocin based on their antibacterial activities against Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 7644. Based on comparative 16S rDNA sequencing analysis, isolates BDL 11, BDL12, and BDL13 were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum while the isolates BDL 08 was identified as Leuconostoc mesenteroides. All crude bacteriocins producing strains revealed broad antibacterial spectrum against 7 different indicator bacteria, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. L. plantarum BDL11 displayed the highest bacteriocin activity relative to others. The bacteriocin produced by the strain was not affected by pH, heating, and NaCl concentration but was sensitive to proteolytic enzymes. This research indicated that the bacteriocin in the food industry has the potential to be used as a biopreservative.
Future of the Artificial Intelligence in Daily Health Applications

This study explores the future possibilities of artificial intelligence (henceforth AI) and related daily health applications. AI mimics human intelligence though approaches of machine learning (ML), natural language processing (NLP), and expert thinking, which enable the use of healthcare data to improve outcomes of care. Leveraging AI in healthcare suggests a better return on investment (ROI) and efficiency than utilizing the skills of clinicians alone. The methodology used was exploratory in nature which hinged on the content analysis and synthesis of a literature review of studies done in this area. The study was driven by two research questions that address the potential benefits of AI and ethical considerations as a significant stumbling block. The results suggest the different types of AI systems are essential in daily healthcare applications which include ML, which requires artificial neural networks, administration, diagnostics, and treatment, and patient engagement and adherence. Focusing on the bigger picture, the application of AI in daily medical procedures will supplement clinicians’ understanding of their patients and improve outcomes of care through information processing.
Transfer of Catechins and Proanthocyanidins From Solid Parts of the Grape Cluster Into Wine

The transfer of catechins and proanthocyanidins from solid parts of the grape cluster into wine was investigated. The Tinta Miuda red wines made by skin fermentation, both with and without stem contact, were used in this study. Catechins, oligomeric and polymeric proanthocyanidins in all solid parts of the grape cluster before crushing, in the wines, and in the seeds and stems isolated from pomace after fermentation, were quantified. Nearly half of extractable catechins and oligomeric proanthocyanidins in grape seeds were transferred into wine, but grape seeds did not contribute polymeric proanthocyanidins to the wine. From the stems, the great majority of extractable catechins, oligomeric and also polymeric proanthocyanidins were released into wine. Both grape skins and grape stems were important sources of polymeric proanthocyanidins for the wine. Although considerable amounts of catechins, oligomeric and polymeric proanthocyanidins were extracted from solid parts of the cluster during fermentation, only small amounts of these compounds were retained in wines.
Localization of the phosphatase CheZ to the chemoreceptor patch of Escherichia coli

Localization of the Phosphatase CheZ to the Chemoreceptor Patch of Escherichia coli. (December 2006) Brian Jay Cantwell, B.S., Texas A&M University; M.S., University of Washington Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Michael Manson Peritrichously flagellated bacteria carry out chemotaxis by modulating the frequency of switching between smooth swimming and tumbling. The tumbling frequency is controlled by a signal transduction cascade in which transmembrane receptors modulate the activity of a histidine kinase CheA that transfers phosphate to its cognate response regulator CheY. The proteins of the chemotaxis signaling cascade are localized to clusters found primarily at the poles of cells. In this work, the localization of the CheZ protein, a phosphatase that dephosphorylates CheY~P, is examined. Using a CheZ-GFP fusion protein, we show that CheZ was localized to the polar receptor patch via interaction with the short form of CheA (CheAS). Aromatic residues of CheZ near one end of the elongated CheZ four-helix bundle were determined to be critical for localization. Aliphatic residues in CheAS were also determined to be critical for CheZ localization to the receptor patch and substitution of these residues conferred a tumble bias to swimming cells. A mechanism of CheZ localization is proposed in which the CheZ apical loop interacts with a binding site formed by dimerization of the P1 domain of CheAS. The potential role of CheZ localization as a means of coordinating the rotation state of peritrichously distributed flagella is discussed.
Highly Precise Modified Blue Whale Method Framed by Blending Bat and Local Search Algorithm for the Optimality of Image Fusion Algorithm

Image fusion has gained huge popularity in the field of medical and satellite imaging for image analysis. The lack of usages of image fusion is due to a deficiency of suitable optimization techniques and dedicated hardware. In recent days WOA (whale optimization algorithm) is gaining popularity. Like another straightforward nature-inspired algorithm, WOA has some problems in its searching process. In this paper, we have tried to improve the WOA algorithm by modifying the WOA algorithm. This MWOA (modified whale optimization algorithm) algorithm is amalgamed with LSA (local search algorithm) and BA (bat algorithm). The LSA algorithm helps the system to be faster, and BA algorithm helps to increase the accuracy of the system. This optimization algorithm is checked using MATLAB R2018b. Simulated using ModelSim, and the synthesizing is done using Xilinx Vivado 18.2 synthesis tool. The outcome of the simulation result and the synthesis result outshine other metaheuristic optimization algorithms.
CONTINUOUS MULTIQUERIES K-DOMINANT SKYLINE DI JARINGAN JALAN RAYA

The increasing use of mobile devices makes spatial data worthy of consideration. To get maximum results, users often look for the best from a collection of objects. Among the algorithms that can be used is the skyline query. The algorithm looks for all objects that are not dominated by other objects in all of its attributes. However, data that has many attributes makes the query output a lot of objects so it is less useful for the user. k-dominant skyline queries can be a solution to reduce the output. Among the challenges is the use of skyline queries with spatial data and the many user preferences in finding the best object. This study proposes IKSR: the k-dominant skyline query algorithm that works in a road network environment and can process many queries that have the same subspace in one processing. This algorithm combines queries that operate on the same subspace and set of objects with different k values by computing from the smallest to the largest k. Optimization occurs when some data for larger k are precomputed when calculating the result for the smallest k so the Voronoi cell computing is not repeated. Testing is done by comparing with the naïve algorithm without precomputation. IKSR algorithm can speed up computing time two to three times compared to naïve algorithm.
An Attachment Model for Assessing Suicidal Risk

A model for addressing suicidal risk utilizing attachment theory is addressed. Risk factors for suicide have generally been conceptualized at the level of individual characteristics rather than relational dynamics. Combining Shneidman’s common characteristics of a suicidal person with Bowlby’s attachment theory provides for a more relational view of suicide-related behaviors and communications. Considering high rates of suicide, especially among some population groups, it is important to have a more comprehensive framework for suicidal risk from which to treat suicidal clients.
The Use of Nutri-Plus Gel® in Cardiology

Appropriate nutritional management is indispensable to ensure the quality of life in animals suffering from heart diseases. Complementary feeds, still little used in veterinary medicine but increasingly employed in humans, represent a worthwhile option for the nutritional management of animals with heart diseases. Nutri-Plus Gel® is a complementary feed composed of high-energy ingredients (glucose syrup, soybean oil and cod liver oil), hydrolyzed animal proteins, vitamins and oligo-elements. Due to its high-energy content and excellent palatability, Nutri-Plus Gel® is used for nutritional recovery and convalescence in dogs and cats. It is also used during periods of high-energy requirement and intense physical effort (e.g. hunting season, sled-dog races.). This collection of cases illustrates 5 routine clinical situations encountered in veterinary cardiology in which the use of a palatable high-energy complementary feed is of practical value. These situations include facilitation of restraint during an examination (e.g., echocardiography), promoting treatment compliance (notably during long-term multitherapy), and providing nutritional support during periods of lack of appetite associated with advanced heart diseases and post-operative recuperation. In any case, complementary feed should always be used as a complement to the appropriate diet, rather than a replacement of the later.
