Background. Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) usually begins during adolescence but little is known about the prevalence, etiology, and patterns of comorbidity in this age group. We investigated the prevalence of BDD symptoms in adolescents and young adults. We also report on the relative importance of genetic and environmental influences on BDD symptoms, and the risk for co-existing psychopathology. Methods. Prevalence of BDD symptoms was determined by a validated cut-off on the Dysmorphic Concerns Questionnaire (DCQ) in three population-based twin cohorts at ages 15 (n = 6968), 18 (n = 3738), and 20–28 (n = 4671). Heritability analysis was performed using univariate model-fitting for the DCQ. The risk for co-existing psychopathology was expressed as odds ratios (OR). Results. The prevalence of clinically significant BDD symptoms was estimated to be between 1 and 2% in the different cohorts, with a significantly higher prevalence in females (1.3–3.3%) than in males (0.2–0.6%). The heritability of body dysmorphic concerns was estimated to be 49% (95% CI 38–54%) at age 15, 39% (95% CI 30–46) at age 18, and 37% (95% CI 29–42) at ages 20–28, with the remaining variance being due to non-shared environment. ORs for coexisting neuropsychiatric and alcohol-related problems ranged from 2.3 to 13.2. Conclusions. Clinically significant BDD symptoms are relatively common in adolescence and young adulthood, particularly in females. The low occurrence of BDD symptoms in adolescent boys may indicate sex differences in age of onset and/or etiological mechanisms. BDD symptoms are moderately heritable in young people and associated with an increased risk for co-existing neuropsychiatric and alcohol-related problems.

Starch for Priming in Patients Underg Comparison of a Waxy Maize and a Potato Starch-Based Balanced Hydroxyethyl oing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Objective: Concerns have been raised about differences in the safety profile of potatoversus waxy maize-derived hydroxyethyl starch (HES). The objective of this study was to compare 2 HES solutions derived from 2 different source materials (potato versus waxy maize) for their dose-related effects on hemostasis and organ function when used to prime the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit (CPB). Design: A prospective, randomized, controlled study. Setting: Tertiary care center. Participants: Eighty patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on CPB. Interventions: For priming the CPB circuit, the HESPRL group received 1000 mL of potato-derived balanced 6% HES 130/0.42 along with 500 mL of Ringer’s lactate; the HESP group received 1,500 mL of potato-derived balanced 6% HES 130/0.42; the HESMRL group received 1000 mL of waxy maize-derived balanced 6% HES 130/0.4 along with 500 mL of Ringer’s lactate, and the HESM group received 1500 mL of waxy maize-derived balanced 6% HES 130/0.4. Measurements and Main Results: There were no significant differences in 24-hour mediastinal drainage, rate of reexploration, blood product usage, coagulation parameters,
After Cardiac Surgery : A Syste Global Incidence and Outcomes of Adult Patients With Acute Kidney Injury matic Review and Meta-Analysis

Objectives: To estimate the global incidence and outcomes of acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery in adult patients. Design: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Setting: Cardiac surgery wards. Participants: Adult patients after cardiac surgery Interventions: None. Measurements and Main Results: The authors searched PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, OVID, and EMBASE databases for all articles on cardiac surgery patients published during 2004 to 2014. Meta-analyses were conducted to generate pooled incidence, mortality, ICU length of stay, and length of hospital stay. The authors also described the variations according to study design, criteria of AKI, surgical methods, countries, continents, and their economies. After a primary and secondary screen, 91 observational studies with 320,086 patients were identified. The pooled incidence rates of AKI were 22.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 19.8 to 25.1) in total and 13.6%,
Social Networks and Political Participation: The Role of Social Interaction in Explaining Political Participation

The argument advanced in this article is that interaction in social networks has a strong, though often over-looked, influence on the propensity to participate in politics. Specifically, I argue that social interaction creates opportunities for individuals to gather information about politics that allows them to live beyond personal resource constraints, thereby supporting the political activity of many people. Using relational data from the South Bend Election Study, this article provides evidence that the effect of social interaction on participation is contingent on the amount of political discussion that occurs in social networks. Additional analysis shows the substantive and theoretical importance of such interaction by explaining how it is distinct from the effect of social group memberships and how it enhances the effect of individual education on the probability of participation. This key contribution of this article is to show that models of political participation that do not account for informal social interaction will be theoretically underspecified. It also shows that such interactions play a crucial role in explicating the role of other factors that predict participation, such as group membership and individual resources.
Regional Policy and rent-seeking

The most important policy instrument to promote regional development in the European Union is Strucutral Funds, covering approximately a third of the EU budget. An empirical analysis demonstrates that these funds have on average been ineffective in speeding up the process of convergence with in the European Union. Only in countries with sufficiently good institutions have these funds contributed positively to regional development. Our analysis attempts to shed light on how investment subsidies may create industrialization, and more importantly, how poor quality institutions may prevent this strategy from succeeding.

The human oro-gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a complex system, consisting of oral cavity, pharynx, oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum and anus, which all together with the accessory digestive organs constitute the digestive system. The function of the digestive system is to break down dietary constituents into small molecules and then absorb these for subsequent distribution throughout the body. Besides digestion and carbohydrate metabolism, the indigenous microbiota has an important influence on host physiological, nutritional and immunological processes, and commensal bacteria are able to modulate the expression of host genes that regulate diverse and fundamental physiological functions. The main external factors that can affect the composition of the microbial community in generally healthy adults include major dietary changes and antibiotic therapy. Changes in some selected bacterial groups have been observed due to controlled changes to the normal diet e.g. high-protein diet, high-fat diet, prebiotics, probiotics and polyphenols. More specifically, changes in the type and quantity of non-digestible carbohydrates in the human diet influence both the metabolic products formed in the lower regions of the GI tract and the bacterial populations detected in faeces. The interactions between dietary factors, gut microbiota and host metabolism are increasingly demonstrated to be important for maintaining homeostasis and health. Therefore the aim of this review is to summarise the effect of diet, and especially dietary interventions, on the human gut microbiota. Furthermore, the most important confounding factors (methodologies used and intrinsic human factors) in relation to gut microbiota analyses are elucidated.

In vitro propagation of two elite cooking banana cultivars- FHIA 17 and INJAGI

Explants of two elite cooking banana cultivars, FHIA17 and INJAGI were collected from healthy source of stock plants growing in the field. Sterilization was evaluated using different concentrations (20, 30, 40, 50 and 60%) of a commercial bleach (JIK) for 25 min. Effects of cytokinins benzyl amino purine (BAP), 2-isopentenyl adenine (2iP) and kinetin each evaluated at 5, 10, 20, 24 and 40 µM and thidiazuron (TDZ) at 0.1, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 µM, on microshoot induction were investigated. Effects of auxins viz. napthaleneacetic acid (NAA), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and indole-3-butyric acid (IBA each evaluated at 5, 10, 20 and 40 µM) on rooting were tested as well. The highest (91%) numbers of clean explants were obtained when the explants were subjected to sterilization in 40% Jik for 25 min. The FHIA 17 explants cultured on MS media supplemented with 40 µM kinetin produced the highest (3.00±0.35) mean number of microshoots. On the other hand, INJAGI explants cultured on MS media supplemented with 0.1 µM TDZ yielded the highest mean number (1.84±0.24) of microshoots and the highest mean length (0.99±0.13). Rooting was achieved in all media supplemented with the auxins evaluated except on 2,4-D. These results have an important significance on the application of tissue culture in propagation of cooking bananas in Rwanda, which is highly desired to support the government policy of replacing old unproductive bananas with elite high yielding varieties. Key words: FHIA17, INJAGI, banana, microshoot, cultivar.

Luo Iron plaque decrease cadmium accumulation in Oryza sativa L . by acting as a source of iron in addition to obstructing cadmium uptake

Cadmium contamination occurs in paddy soil. Hence Cd minimization in rice is required. Application and mode of action of ferrous sulphate in minimization of Cd in rice was monitored in the present study. Pot culture with Indian rice variety swarna (MTU 7029) was maintained in Cd spiked soil contain ferrous sulphate. It is found that application of ferrous sulphate reduces Cd accumulation in rice. Iron plaque was induced on root surface during FeSO4 application, and the amount of Fe in plaque reduced with increase of Cd in the soil. Rhizosphere pH found to decrease during plaque formation, and the pH shift to more acidic due to secretion of organic A cc ep te d A rt ic le This article is protected by copyright.

But in the absence of Cd, activity of this enzyme was more in plaque induced plants. Cd treatment caused expression of OsYSL18 whereas OsYSL15 expressed only in roots without plaque. Fe content of plants increased during plaque formation which protected plants from Cd inducible Fe deficiency and metal toxicity. This finding was corroborated with more biomass productivity, chlorophyll content, and quantum efficiency of photosynthesis among plaque induced plants. It is concluded that ferrous sulphate induced iron plaque prevent Cd accumulation and Fe deficiency in rice.
Long-Term Outcomes in Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin as Predictor of Short-or Cardiac Surgery Patients

Objectives: To determine the ability of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) to predict cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI), continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), mortality, and a composite outcome of major adverse kidney events at 365 days (MAKE365), and to investigate the influence of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on NGAL release. Design: A prospective observational study. Setting: A single-center university hospital. Participants: A cohort of 288 adult cardiac surgery patients. Interventions: uNGAL was measured at baseline, immediately after surgery, and on days 1 and 2 postoperatively. The authors used the recent Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes consensus criteria to define CSA-AKI. Measurements and Main Results: CSA-AKI occurred in 36.1% of patients. uNGAL rapidly became significantly higher in patients who developed AKI, with peak value immediately after surgery (349.9 [76.6-1446.6] v 90.1 [20.8328] ng/mg creatinine; p o 0.001). No measure of uNGAL
The relationship between a physician incentive plan and departmental performance in a Taiwan hospital

The objective of this study is to investigate the influence of a physician incentive plan based upon treatment of patients in a large private non-for-profit hospital in Taiwan. We examine the relationship between physicians’ bonuses and departmental performance to assess the impact of the physician incentive plan in the case hospital. The multiple regression models are used to examine the relationship between physicians’ bonuses and departmental profitability. In addition, we use Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model to measure the operational efficiency of each department in the case hospital. Then, a multi-factor tobit model is used to examine the relationship between physicians’ bonuses and departmental efficiency. The results indicate that physicians’ bonuses in the case hospital are negatively correlated with departmental profitability and efficiency. That is, the performance measurement of current incentive plan may not be appropriate and it does not induce physicians to increase departmental profitability and improve efficiency. Our results suggest that the incentive plan is flawed and might fail to hold physicians accountable for improving departmental performance in the case hospital.

Dynamic Response of Soft Core Sandwich Beams with Metal-Graphene Nanocomposite Skins

Sandwich structures are able to provide enhanced strength, stiffness, and lightweight characteristics, thus contributing to an improved overall structural response. To this sandwich configuration one may associate through-thickness graded core material properties and homogeneous or graded properties nanocomposite skins. These tailor-made possibilities may provide alternative design solutions to specific problem requisites. This work aims to address these possibilities, considering to this purpose a package of three beam layerwise models based on different shear deformation theories, implemented through Kriging-based finite elements. The viscoelastic behaviour of the sandwich core is modelled using the complex method and the dynamic problem is solved in the frequency domain. A set of case studies illustrates the performance of the models.

A Novel Approach to Non-invasive way of Treating Skin Cancer using Dipole Fed Corner Reflector Antenna with Sub Nano Second Electric Pulse

 AbstractSkin cancer has become major threat to mankind, apart from various treatments of curing cancer like Radiation therapy, our paper deals with the new way of treating skin cancer using Dipole fed corner reflector antenna because of its effective focus on the affected area only. This antenna uses sub Nano second electric pulse for radiating on the skin. This way of treating cancerous cells ensure very less radiation on the normal part of our body. The successful Antenna is designed, so that it could be adjusted for any part of human body. High gain is achieved by reducing spacing between the solid plates (Reflectors) of the antenna. The design provides a new way of treating skin cancer, which assures better treatment than the rest one due to its effective focus, good directivity and effectively treats deep-seated tumours. Simulation of designed antenna using Antenna magus version 3.3. 0and its observed parameters are open in this paper.
Tidal Tails and the Shape of the Dark Matter Halo

Abstract Cold dark matter cosmologies successfully accounts for the distribution of matter on large scales. On smaller scales, these cosmological models predict that galaxies like our own Milky Way should be enveloped in massive dark matter halos. Furthermore, these halos should be significantly flattened or even triaxial. Recent observational evidence, drawn from the demise of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy as it is cannibalized by our own, indicates that the potential of the Milky Way must be close to spherical. While the precise interpretation of the observational evidence is under debate, an apparently spherical halo may signify a pronounced failing of dark matter models, and may even indicate a failure in our fundamental understanding of gravity.

Most pregnant women consume inadequate long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids for optimal pregnancy outcomes

Long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPUFA), including docosahexaenoic acid, are components of cellular membranes that affect biological functioning. Most pregnant women consume inadequate amounts of n-3 LCPUFA and inadequately convert linolenic acid into docosahexaenoic acid. The purpose of this article is to educate nursing professionals on the importance of n-3 LCPUFA consumption during pregnancy and highlight the critical role of nursing professionals in supporting optimal consumption for improved metabolic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory potential.
Adaptive Synchronization of Rayleigh Fading Channel Using Kalman Filter

In this paper, we use the adaptive kalman filtering to approximate the impulse response of the system such that the impulse response of the system is synchronized with the ideal system response. Adaptive synchronized Rayleigh fading channel requires the knowledge of channel information. To evaluate the performance of the system knowledge of channel parameter is the basic requirement. Kalman filter predict the value of the weights then measure the weights and then update the real values of the weights. It is also helpful to determine the minimum mean square error that is MMSE. It is purely a time domain filter where as other filters are formulated in the frequency domain and then transformed back to the time domain for implementation. The Results reveals that the performance of the Rayleigh fading channel in terms of kalman gain and minimum mean square error (MMSE).
Autonomous vs. heteronomous mode of action control and task performance: The role of the situational context and action vs. state orientation

The article presents the results of two experimental studies in which I investigated the effect of the situational context (autonomy-supportive vs. external control) and action vs. state orientation on perseverance and efficacy in task performance. The results of Study 1 (n = 40) confirmed that in a context which supports autonomy – as opposed to one which induces external control – people are much more likely to be not only more persistent and effective in their actions but also much more interested in the performed task. Interest in the performed task seems to also be – to some extenta mediator in the relationship between persistence and efficacy. The results of Study 2 (n = 69) confirmed that a context, which supports autonomy positively, affects both persistence and efficacy. At the same time, the study shows that in a context, which supports autonomy, action-oriented people are more persistent and efficient in their actions than are state-oriented people. What is more, in an autonomy-supporting context, action-oriented people have a more positive attitude towards a given task than do state-oriented people.
Should Certain Linear Superpositions of the Potentials Describing the Field of Magnetic Monopoles be Topologically Forbidden, and Why ?

The impact of linear superpositions of magnetic potentials on the physical robustness of “patchings” used to build up the “wave section” of an electron orbiting around a magnetic monopole is examined. It is shown that most of these linear superpositions must be discarded if one wishes to preserve the possibility that magnetic monopoles may exist.
