Estimation of Genetic Diversity in Four Genetic Groups of Local Kurdish Chicken Using RAPD-PCR

The current study conducted to detect the genetic diversity between four genetic groups of Kurdish local chicken using RAPD-PCR technique. Ten random markers used to amplified DNA were selected for genotyping the four lines. One hundred twenty four polymorphic bands were amplified, the bands size ranged between (2500 and 100 bp). The primer (OPA-05, OPA-18) produced maximum number of polymorphic bands, while primers named (OPA-16) produced minimum number of polymorphic bands. The (WNFS) genetic group showed the highest number of amplified fragments (55) for both male and female (30), (25) respectively. While (BBN) genetic group showed the lowest number of amplified fragments (20) for both male and female (7), (13) respectively. According to the results obtained from the current study, it can be conclude that the four genetic groups differ genetically. Moreover the results will help the breeders to study new selection strategies between the four genetic groups.
The diagnosis and treatment of familial hyperlipidemia combined with midsubstance Achilles tendinopathy in a young woman: a clinical case report

Background: Familial hyperlipidemia is primarily an inherited disorder characterized by an elevation of plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and xanthomas at various sites. Achilles tendon xanthomas usually present as a swollen tendon, caused by both intratendinous lipid infiltration and local edema and inflammation. Previous research indicates that patients with midsubstance Achilles tendinopathy might benefit from eccentric loading exercises. However, no studies have yet evaluated the effect of eccentric exercises on patients with Achilles tendon disease associated with familial hyperlipidemia. Case report: A 32-year old woman with familial hyperlipidemia and midsubstance Achilles tendinopathy benefited from 12 months of therapy (including calf eccentric loading exercises and lipid-lowering therapy). US indicated blood flow changes with her symptomatic improvement. Clinical rehabilitation Impact: Lipid-lowering therapy and exercise therapy are effective for patients with familial hyperlipidemia and midsubstance Achilles tendinopathy.

The Effect of Central Bank's Monetary Policy on Unemployment and Inflation in Provinces of Iran: A GVAR Approach

The national economy of most countries is made up of various regions (provinces) with different industrial composition, financial structure, trade relations, and institutional environment. Depending on these characteristics, regions may respond differently to a uniform national macroeconomic policy. Policymakers should consider these heterogeneities to achieve the national development objective. Using separate VAR models to investigate the regional effects of a uniform policy neglects the spillover effects across regions. The GVAR approach models the links between units (such as regions) using the weighted average of different macroeconomic aggregates. Since Iran is a regionally dispersed country, this motivates us to analyze whether or not a standard monetary policy has different effects on its provinces' unemployment and inflation rates using a GVAR approach during 2005q1-2016q1 period. Results indicate that one standard deviation positive monetary shock at the national level can significantly reduce unemployment in some provinces. These responses are similar in terms of timing, but their intensity is different. Also, this positive shock has a positive effect on inflation in all provinces. All responses are approximately similar in terms of timing. Despite this similarity, shock responses vary in terms of intensity.
The theory of the spectra of europium salts

A theoretical analysis is given of the three 5D terms in the europium ion. The integrals Fk are discussed and the importance of F6 is emphasized. Values of F4/F2 and F6/F2 are calculated for a hydrogenic 4f eigenfunction, and evidence from the praseodymium and gadolinium ions suggests it is reasonable to use these values in the case of europium. A state in L, S, L2, S2 quantization is defined in terms of the determinantal product states of 4f one-electron states, and this enables the properties of the 5D terms to be found. By calculating the Coulomb energies of the three terms, it is shown that the 5D term observed spectroscopically is the lowest of the three. The relative positions of the levels 5D0, 5D1 and 5D2 that derive from this term are calculated for Russell-Saunders coupling, and a satisfactory fit is obtained with the observed spacings. In addition, the crystal fine structures of 7F1 and 5D1 are related to each other, and the agreement between experiment and theory is as good as can be expected.

The drug development life cycle may be a long process that additionally involves ample efforts within the testing of the chemical stability of the drug molecules and potential impurity and degradation product of the drug before it comes within the sort of stable formulation. This shows the vital development within the forced degradation methodology by this innovative approach. As the approach is new it requires a methodical protocol, the paper presents suitable factorial setups for the described application. KeywordsDrug Stability, Forced Degradation, Protocol, Factors.
Deep Learning for Mask Synthesis and Verification: A Survey

Achieving lithography compliance is increasingly difficult in advanced technology nodes. Due to complicated lithography modeling and long simulation cycles, verifying and optimizing photomasks becomes extremely expensive. To speedup design closure, deep learning techniques have been introduced to enable data-assisted optimization and verification. Such approaches have demonstrated promising results with high solution quality and efficiency. Recent research efforts show that learning-based techniques can accomplish more and more tasks, from classification, simulation, to optimization, etc. In this paper, we will survey the successful attempts of advancing mask synthesis and verification with deep learning and highlight the domain-specific learning techniques. We hope this survey can shed light on the future development of learning-based design automation methodologies.
Case Report: Possible Rivaroxaban Failure in Patient with Nephrotic Syndrome Discussing Anticoagulation in Nephrotic Syndrome

Kidney disease may cause development of nephrotic syndrome, which is characterized by a variety of factors, including hypoalbuminemia. A well-known complication of nephrotic syndrome is increased risk of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE), caused by various physiologic changes. Multiple treatment options are available for the treatment of VTE, including heparin, warfarin, and non-warfarin oral anticoagulants such as rivaroxaban. In this case report, we describe a 25-yearold male who presented to the Emergency Department (ED) with a Pulmonary Embolism (PE). He was deemed low-risk and eligible for discharge from the ED with rivaroxaban. The treatment is believed to have failed after he developed another VTE in a renal vein five months later while taking rivaroxaban daily. He was admitted to the hospital for thrombolysis and was subsequently diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome and hypoalbuminemia. There is no available data on the use of rivaroxaban in patients with nephrotic syndrome. Despite the fact that hypoalbuminemia could result in higher serum concentration of free drug for highly protein-bound agents such as rivaroxaban, the additional VTE risk inherent to NS appears to have led to re-thrombosis in this patient. Based on the pathophysiology of nephrotic syndrome, we caution the use of rivaroxaban in patients with this condition.

A Real Game-Changer in ESL Classroom? Boosting Vietnamese Learner Engagement with Gamification

The significance of gamification has been robust in educational contexts as gamification provides a greater engagement and empowerment among ESL language learners. This research aims to reconsider the role of gamification beyond its conventional use as gamified classroom activities, incorporating it into the whole journey of an ESL blended learning course. The study was conducted in a Vietnamese private university with a total of 50 learners for 12 weeks. E-journal and interviews were employed to explore learners’ deep thoughts of gamification. Each week, five learners voluntarily submitted their journals through a link by Google Form. Additionally, interviews were also conducted in the middle of the course, week 7, and at the end of the course, week 12. Data was analyzed into 3 main themes: behavioral engagement, emotional engagement, and cognitive engagement. The result indicated that ESL learners achieved a deeper engagement in a gamified blended classroom, behaviorally, emotionally, and cognitively. To be more specific, learners attained a higher level of participation, effort-making, and contribution to learning. Moreover, participants showed their interest and confirmed the decrease of language anxiety. Finally, students developed a sense of social connection and investment in their learning, which was regarded as the expressions of cognitive engagement.
Fatal Central Nerve System Infection After Acupuncture Through the Extra- Axial Space of the Cervicomedullary Junction

A previously healthy 55-year-old woman complained of headache, vomiting, and become drowsy after acupuncture (C1 to C5) due to left neck pain. Examination showed sluggish light reflex, pupil dilatation, and neck stiffness. Brain CT and MRI confirm ed procedure-related multiple air-bubbles at the cervicomedullary junction. Spinal MRI revealed leptomeningeal enhancement with abscess formation. The CSF biochemical profiling was identified to be Slackia exigua; gram-positive and anaerobic bacillus. It suggests that direct inoculation of Slackia exigua had occurred during acupuncture. She became comatose. Performing acupuncture without adequate and aseptic controls may cause grave CNS infection.
Value Relevance of R&D Advances in the US Biotechnology Industry

We investigate the value relevance of non-financial information in the US biotechnology industry by studying the stock market reactions to announcements of drug development outcomes for a sample period of 10 years (from January 2010 to December 2019). We find that the market reacts strongly to these announcements and that the magnitude of the market reaction differs between announcements made in different phases of the drug development process as well as between positive and negative announcements. Consistent with our theoretical predictions, we find that the market reacts more strongly to late-stage announcements than to early-stage announcements and more strongly to negative announcements than to positive announcements.

Theory of Plasmon Excitation in Thin Films by Electrons of Non-Normal Incidence

Calculations of characteristic energy losses of electrons in thin dielectric foils are given for a) electrons with inclined incidence to the foil, b) electrons travelling parallel to the foil surface. Retardation is taken into account for case b) in the limit of very thick foils. For the special case in which the dielectric behaves as a free electron gas, excitation probabilities and dispersion relations are deduced for bulk and surface plasmons. Die charakteristischen Energieverluste von Elektronen in dunnen dielektrischen Schichten wurden fur zwei Falle berechnet: a) fur schiefen Einfall der Elektronen auf die Folie, b) fur Elektronen, die parallel zur Folienoberflache fliegen. Der Einflus der Retardierung wurde im Fall b) im Grenzfall sehr dicker Folien berucksichtigt. Fur den Spezialfall, das sich das Dielektrikum wie ein freies Elektronengas verhalt, wurden die Anregungswahrscheinlichkeiten und die Dispersionsrelationen der Volumen- und Oberflachenplasmonen abgeleitet.

Evaluation of the impact of HPP treatment on the chemical composition and organoleptic indicators of raw dog food

The study included three diets of raw dog food made of different types of meat – chicken, veal and a mix of meats that were treated under high pressure. For this purpose, the non-thermal treatment technology – НРР (high pressure processing) was used. The aim of our study was to evaluate how this type of processing affected the chemical composition and organoleptic characteristics of three different types of raw dog food. To conduct the experiment, a total of 75 samples were examined, divided according to a scheme – 5 control and 20 samples from each diet. On the day of production before HPP treatment, 10 samples of these 20, were tested for chemical components – proteins, fats, saturated fatty acids, carbohydrates, sugars, chlorides, crude cellulose (fiber), energy value and organoleptic characteristics – appearance and shape, color, texture, smell. Ten samples from each diet treated with HPP, were tested for the same indicators. Our results showed that the organoleptic and quality indicators of raw dog food, did not change significantly after HPP-treatment. That meant the technology could be successfully implemented in the production of raw dog food.
CLOUD FORMING POTENTIAL OF SECONDARY ORGANIC AEROSOL

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) contribute an important fraction of the atmospheric organic aerosol. SOA is formed by oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC), which results in complex mixtures of organic species in the particle phase. Their hygroscopic and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) properties are much less understood than those of inorganic mixtures. Even though SOA is to a great extent water soluble, its contribution to cloud formation is still largely unknown.
USING LINEAR MATRIX INEQUALITY METHOD TO DESIGN MINIMUM-LENGHT FINITE IMPULSE RESPONSE LOOP FILTERS IN FIXED WiMAX PLL

Abstract. We designed Finite Impulse Response (FIR), digital filters by Semi-Definite Programming (SDP) using SeDuMi (self-dual minimization) toolbox software. The stability is assured using Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) constraints. The minimum length FIR filter algorithm was used to proof that the order of the FIR filter, which was designed, is optimal for our design specifications. The proposed method gave better result with regard to all specifications of control signal, where we had the faster system and more stable than the other systems.
The impact of social capital-based selection practices on talent management: evidence from telecom MNCs in Bangladesh

The purpose of this paper is to explore how social capital-based selection practices influence talent management (TM) in multinational companies (MNC). To date, little is known about how this relationship fulfills business priorities. The study collected empirical data through in-depth interviews with 12 managers from three telecommunication firms in Bangladesh. Our study found a significant influence of social capital-based selection practices on TM. We found that the relational and cognitive dimensions of social capital were the major drivers of selection practices that influenced a talent search process. Trust and cultural norms especially within networking relationships through shared narratives, codes and language, and vision affected TM involving selection practices. Therefore, the role of existing human resource management (HRM) system for selection practices was found inadequate without the integration of social capital. We report that upper-level managers have the capability to shape and implement a TM system that benefits candidates with network ties of informal social relationships, which consequently marginalized formal HRM practices. HRM system is only an administrative function alongside the dominant social capital-based TM selection practices. For practical implications, upper-level managers used social capital-based selection practices beyond HRM systems that were deemed pragmatic in selecting the right candidates for positions in organizations favoring intra-group homogeneity.
Visually Evaluating Courses of Action in a Contested Network Environment

—Current cyber situational awareness (SA) technologies primarily have aimed at better comprehension of existing elements and immediate risks or threats in networked environments. This has left a gap in cyber defenders’ ability to trade off risks in proposed courses of action over an upcoming timeframe of interest under nominal or dynamic threat conditions. We present Pythia, a prototype tool that is designed to enhance cyber SA by explicitly considering attacker-defender activities in response to a selected course of action over a timeframe of interest with a visualization capability that, by adding the temporal dimension, is a novel, critical component for enhanced cyber SA. Pythia leverages a cybersecurity model utilizing High Performance Computing (HPC) simulations to provide four crucial features to improve a cyber-defenders situational awareness: (1) a high-level interactive view of the defenders current network architecture and recommended architectures, including the fraction of hosts compromised within each segment, (2) a time-dependent plot of projected fractional compromise rates per segment, (3) an interactive parameters menu in which users can ﬁne tune parameters to be sent to the backend algorithms, and (4) an interactive history of user actions in which they can compare potential strategies to mitigate risk in their network.
effectiveness of a therapeutic teaching protocol in the treatment of reading difficulties for students of the Arabic-speaking primary

This study is concerned with highlighting the effect of vocal processing skills of vocal awareness and vocal working memory on the development of reading mechanisms and difficulties. The study was conducted on a total sample of 280 male and female pupils in the third, fourth and fifth phases of primary school ages 8-11, among them 50 children with dyslexia who were diagnosed according to a battery of standards that the researcher prepared for this purpose and that respond to the standards Psychometrics to build tests. The study aims to: To ensure the effectiveness of a pedagogical treatment program in developing reading skills for students with dyslexia dependent on phonological awareness activities and phonological working memory and the transition from part to whole gradually. In general, children with dyslexia suffer from a great and persistent difficulty in phonemic representation, in addition to a deficiency in the lower linguistic units in the Arabic language and their use to reach the skills of recognizing the written word by linking between the linear phonemic compatibility of the voice. Our findings support the evolutionary hypothesis of general disability in vocal processing skills and concluded that rhyme awareness appears before vocal syllabic awareness. A child at this level finds difficulty in phonograms with moving sound. Additionally, multiple regression analysis shows that poor vocal memory is the best indication of poor vocal awareness in the Arabic language. Studies also focused on the effectiveness of the proposed program for the treatment of vocal dyslexia in improving the ability to read in general.
