Korištenje Instagrama i simptomi depresije kod adolescenata

Research shows that almost all adolescents and young people use at least one, if not more, social networks. With so much usage of from social networks, there is a need for new research. The aim of this study was to examine whether the frequency of Instagram use and the self-objecitification would predict adolescent depression, and whether selfobjectification would moderate the association between Instagram frequency use and depression symptoms. The participants were 361 high school students of second, third and fourth grade from the Zagreb area, ages 15 to 19. The research was conducted in large groups during regular classes, in a paper-pencil form. The battery of the questionnaires consisted of the Objectified Body Consciousness Scale for Adolescents , the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and demographic questions. The results showed that girls use Instragam more frequently than boys, experience more symptoms of depression and higher levels of self-objectification. Furthermore, the higher levels of self-objecitification (body surveillance and body shame) were predictors of higher levels of depression symptoms in adolescents. The moderating effect of self-objectification of one's body has not been obtained.

Future Generation Computer Systems

Semantic Link Network plays an important role in representing and understanding text. This paper investigates the influence of semantic links on the basic abilities of a type of QA system that extracts answers from a range of texts (answer range). Research concerns how semantic links influence the answer range and the performance of this type of QA system. Research also concerns the ability to answering different types of questions and supporting different patterns of answering questions. Based on the semantic link network extracted from Wikipedia, an experimental QA system is developed to answer questions according to a range of pages in Wikipedia. Research reached the following results: (1) the answer range and the semantic link network influence each other: keeping a certain range of performance, increase one can decrease the request of the other; and, (2) the semantic link network can enhance the ability of QA system in answering questions and supporting patterns of answering questions covered by semantic link network.
Impact of Acute Ethanol Injections on Medial Prefrontal Cortex Neural Activity

The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is a cortical brain region involved in the evaluation and selection of motivationally relevant outcomes. mPFC-mediated cognitive functions are impaired following acute alcohol exposure. In rodent models, ethanol (EtOH) doses as low as 0.75 g/kg yield deficits in cognitive functions. These deficits following acute EtOH are thought to be mediated, at least in part, by decreases in mPFC firing rates. However, these data have been generated exclusively in anesthetized rodents. To eliminate the potentially confounding role of anesthesia on EtOH modulated mPFC activity, the present study investigated the effects of acute EtOH injections on mPFC neural activity in awake-behaving rodents. We utilized three groups: the first group received 2 saline injections during the recording. The second group received a saline injection followed 30 minutes later by a 1.0 g/kg EtOH injection. The last group received a saline injection followed 30 minutes later by a 2.0 g/kg EtOH injection. One week following the awake-behaving recording, an anesthetized recording was performed using one dose of saline followed 30 minutes later by one dose of 1.0 g/kg EtOH in order to replicate previous studies. Firing rates were normalized to a baseline period that occurred 5 minutes prior to each injection. A 5-minute time period 30 minutes following the injection was used to compare across groups. There were no significant differences across the awake-behaving saline-saline group, indicating no major effect on mPFC neural activity as a result of repeated injections. There was a significant main effect across treatment & behavioral groups in the saline-EtOH 1.0 g/kg group with reductions in the EtOH & Sleep condition. In the saline-EtOH 2.0 g/kg, mPFC neural activity was only reduced in lowered states of vigilance. This suggests that EtOH only causes gross changes on neural activity when the animal is not active and behaving. Ultimately this means that EtOH’s impact on decision making is not due to gross changes in mPFC neural activity and future work should investigate its mechanism.
The Role of TIMP3 in Models of Inflammation and Immunity

Chapter 3 demonstrated that LPS elicits strikingly different responses in Timp3 versus control mice. The liver plays a major role in orchestrating the response to endotoxin as it is the major source of LPS-induced TNF and the site of the acute phase response. We investigated whether TNF shedding and subsequent cytokine activity is altered in Timp3 livers after LPS treatment. Tissue levels of the cytokine IL-6 were significantly higher although only moderately elevated in Timp3 livers following LPS challenge. IL-6 signalling in the liver showed no difference between genotypes, as reflected in comparable STAT3 phosphorylation. TACE activity and expression levels were also comparable in the liver, and no evidence of greater liver injury was seen in Timp3 livers. Analysis of the spleen showed no difference in the Timp3 mice in the levels of p75 or TNF, suggesting no alteration of TACE activity in this organ. There was, however, a slight but consistent increase in TACE activity in the homogenate of the Timp3 spleens according to a biochemical assay of TACE activity. Use of either a synthetic broad-spectrum metalloproteinase inhibitor or a synthetic inhibitor generally considered to be MMP-specific rescued the Timp3 from the increased LPS sensitivity. Our results suggest that the hypersensitivity to inflammatory stimuli found in Timp3 mice is not due to a change in any one organ, and is not solely dependent on unrestricted TACE activity. It is more likely a result of increased reaction to inflammatory signalling molecules throughout the entire animal.
The Influence of Grit, Goal Setting, and Social Support When Starting a Fashion Business

What does it take to start a business? Not everyone has the business sense to keep their company afloat. Most creative people have great ideas that would make a thriving business, but they do not know how to run one. It is never a good idea to start a company without passion for your idea. People can go far with passion and perseverance, but it takes more than that. As a former business owner and designer of a swimwear company, I began my fashion line when I was taking MBA courses at Seton Hall University. The professors preached about what it takes to start a business, and the consistent advice was to do what you are passionate about. Passion, however, can only take you so far. Much more discipline and knowhow is needed to build a successful business and to sustain it.
Dividing labour in social microorganisms : coordinated or random 1 specialisation ? 2

9 Division of labour, where cooperating individuals specialise to perform complementary 10 tasks, plays a fundamental role at all levels of biological complexity, from genes to 11 complex animal societies. Different labour-dividing species employ different mechanisms 12 to determine how tasks are allocated between individuals, including coordinated, random, 13 and genetic determination of phenotype (caste). It is not clear if this diversity is adaptive— 14 arising because different mechanisms are favoured in different environments—or is 15 merely the result of non-adaptive, historical artifacts of evolution. We analyse theoretically 16 the relative advantages of the two dominant mechanisms employed for reproductive 17 division of labour in social microogranisms: coordinated and random specialisation. We 18 show that coordinated specialisation is more likely to evolve over random specialisation 19 when: (i) social groups are small; (ii) cooperation has a greater relative impact on fitness 20 (i.e., it is more “essential”); and (iii) there is a low cost to coordination. We also show how 21 a fully coordinated group of cells can evolve step-wise from less precise forms of 22 * Corresponding author: guy.cooper@zoo.ox. ac.uk
Locally Produced Organic Food: Consumer Preferences

Local and organic food production is often linked to geographical identity that drives consumers to buy products due to their intangible attributes such as protection of the environment, support of local communities, and preservation of traditions. The primary objective of this paper was to find out if the Romanian consumers preferred a closer location of organic food production. Research results were based on a random survey, with a sample of 424 people from Romania. Seven variables related to consumer preferences and habits were analyzed through descriptive statistics and by Mann Whitney, Wilcoxon, Kruskal Wallis tests, and Spearman's rank-order correlation coefficient. Three location situations were taken under analysis: local vs. other national locations; national vs. other EU locations; and EU vs. the rest of the world. The results revealed that Romanian consumers were prone to local organic food sources, as long as 65% of them preferred locally produced foods over other national sources. A closer location was also more attractive in the other two tested situations, as follows: 77% of the sample preferred foods from Romania to those from other EU countries and 62% preferred European products to those from the rest of the world. The paper concluded that the promotion of the concept of a closer location could be an unexplored opportunity for those interested in the Romanian market.

Corporate reporting metamorphosis: empirical findings from state-owned enterprises

ABSTRACT Grounded in legitimacy theory, this paper contributes to the study of integrated reporting (IR) practices in the public sector, focusing on state-owned enterprises (SOEs)—organizations situated at the boundary between the public and private sector. The findings demonstrate a fair degree of compliance with IR framework (IRF) requirements and identify size, social and environmental sensitivity and conciseness as relevant determinants. Empirical research on IR in the public sector has, to date, been minimal. IMPACT The level of compliance by European state-owned enterprises (SOEs) with the integrated reporting framework (IRF) is investigated in this paper. Possible determinants of levels of disclosure are also explored. The results show high compliance by large entities, as well as by organizations in environmental and socially sensitive sectors in respect to issues traditionally disclosed in financial reporting. However, there is still limited disclosure of forward-looking content elements. Standard setters and policy-makers might consider these results as a stimulus to develop specific guidelines to support the preparation of more holistic reports by public sector entities and specifically SOEs.
Defending the media from itself: Reforming media regulations to minimise the impact of misinformation 1

This article argues that media regulations on correcting incorrect articles are in dire need of reform due to technological and behavioural changes. By using case studies from the UK, the authors demonstrate the huge difference between the number of people who were reached by the original article before the Independent Press Standards Organisation (the regulator in the UK) ruled it incorrect and the number reached by the correction or corrected article. The authors argue that media regulations must be reformed to ensure that corrections reach the same people as the original incorrect article to avoid misinformation impacting peoples’ decision-making, and that reforms must include social media platforms and search engines.

Faecal incontinence, constipation and laxative use: Epidemiology and development of an implementation strategy for improving incontinence care in nursing homes

Aim. To explore prevalence and associations of faecal incontinence among nursing home patients, to examine the effect of clustering of observations and to study the variation in faecal incontinence rates on both the level of nursing home units and individual patients. Background. Faecal incontinence affects 40-55% of the patients in nursing homes and is associated with increased risk of morbidity and reduced quality of life. There is a lack of studies investigating faecal incontinence with validated instruments. More studies need to include models of analyses that allow for clustering of observations. Design. Cross-sectional. Methods. Data on 261 patients from 20 nursing home units were collected during September–October 2014. The Norwegian version of the Resident Assessment Instrument for Long-Term Care Facilities was used. Mixed effect models were conducted. Results. Prevalence of faecal incontinence was 42 1% or 54% depending on the frequency labelling chosen. The effect of clustering by nursing home unit was not statistically significant. Most of the variation in faecal incontinence rates was explained by differences in patient characteristics, the most important being deficiencies in activities of daily living, cognitive impairment, diarrhoea and not participating in activities. Conclusion. Nursing home patients should be offered individualized assessment and continence care matching their patient characteristics. The Resident Assessment Instrument for Long-Term Care Facilities is a useful instrument because of its’ combination of a comprehensive range of individual items and scales allowing for comparison of immediate or long-term change in patients © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd 1 continued on page 2 Sigrid Nakrem PhD RN Associate Professor Faculty of Health and Social Science, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway status.

Evaluating Team Dynamics for Collaborative Communication Alignment Tasks

The primary focus of this work is in exploring human teaming dynamics within goal-oriented communication alignments tasks. A communication alignment task within the context of this work is one in which two teammates have the exact same target information, but from differing perspectives and must communicate in an effort to align their knowledge and agree on the target output. Such an interaction within aviation could occur between a pilot and air traffic controller or ground troop personnel and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) controller. The goal is to compare the task performance and time of completion of a communication alignment task between various team compositions: novice-novice, novice-expert, and expert-expert teams. In this work a novice team member is defined as one who is new to the experimental subject panel and has no experience with the simulated communication alignment task at the onset of the data collection.

Fingertip And Distal Phalanx Necrosis After Self-Inoculation With The Johne’s Disease Vaccine: A Case Report And Review Of The Literature.

In 2002, the Australian government gave approval for the use of the Gudair vaccine (CZ Veterinaria, Porrino, Spain) to prevent the spread of Ovine Johne’s Disease (OJD). The vaccine’s introduction has failed to prevent the spread of OJD and currently vaccination programs are active in most Australian states. OJD is a mycobacterial infection affecting sheep, deer and goats. It is an animal wasting disease resulting in chronic diarrhoea, decreased wool production and stock loss. Accidental human injection of the vaccine can have serious and long lasting consequences. We report on a case of self-inoculation resulting in the amputation of a fingertip and distal phalanx.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy: Phenotypes, mechanisms, and therapeutic targets

by Emily Jean Johnson, Ph.D. Washington State University December 2015 Chair: Susan A. Marsh Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a syndrome of cardiac dysfunction, fibrosis, and hypertrophy that is often associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) independent of classical risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Identifying specific therapies for DCM has been elusive because the etiology and natural history of this condition are poorly understood. Therefore, the purpose of this dissertation was to investigate the hypothesis that DCM has a unique etiology from other types of hypertrophic disorders, to study the phenotypes and mechanisms of this disease in preclinical animal models of DCM, and investigate new therapeutic targets for the treatment of DCM. Studies in type 2 diabetic (db/db) mice reveal that post-translational protein glycosylation and the activity of histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes may be contributing factors to the development of DCM. Several methodological advances are also identified that can be used to improve preclinical DCM research, including a standard protocol for exercise training diabetic mice with a “human” exercise prescription. Finally, systematic analysis of the phenotype of DCM in preclinical animal models highlights confounding effects of species, diabetogenic agents, and laboratory methods that need to be standardized to improve the accuracy and precision of research in this field. Cumulatively, this dissertation provides insight into the preclinical presentation of DCM and potential underlying
