Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders: Psychological Factors in Licensed Nurses

Background: Physical risk factors for work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSD) among licensed nurses have been well established. Rehabilitation following WMSD traditionally focuses on physical dimensions, but both physical and psychological factors may be useful during rehabilitation, as suggested by the Fear Avoidance Model of Chronic Pain (FAMCP) and the Pain Experience Psychological View model (PE). Purpose: The purpose was to describe demographic characteristics of nurses with and without WMSD and relationships among related psychological factors of pain (intensity, severity, and interference), personality traits (extraversion and neuroticism), and coping strategies (catastrophizing, diversion, reinterpreting, cognitive coping, fear avoidance, and depression) as postulated in accordance with the FAMCP and PE models. Methods: An online survey was posted on the websites of three nursing organizations. Nurses with a WMSD (n=124 of 243 participants) completed demographics, WMSD History, Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Coping Strategies Questionnaire24 (CSQ24), Fear Avoidance Belief Questionnaire (FABQ), Eysenck Personality QuestionnaireBrief Version (EPQ-BV), and Centers for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Nurses without a WMSD (n=119 of 243 participants) completed three sections, demographics, EPQ-BV, and CES-D.

Specialist Rehabilitation for Neurological Conditions: Literature Review and Mapping Study. A report prepared for the NHS SDO R&D programme

s on articles not excluded were acquired. Each acquired abstract was considered independently by the two researchers for fit with the four criteria. When uncertainty existed, a third reviewer was consulted. A service was ‘a group of (therapeutic) interventions delivered by one or more people or organisation(s) and may incorporate one or more programs, methods, techniques or approaches’ and rehabilitation was ‘an active educational and problem solving process that primarily focuses on the patient with a diagnosis of a long-term neurological condition with accompanying activity limitations, and which aims to minimise the somatic and emotional distress of both the patient and their family’. Articles were excluded if they had a primary focus on single component interventions, or focused on services specifically for children. Selected articles were classified by the two researchers as either qualitative or quantitative, recorded on one of two Microsoft Access databases, and referred to the quantitative and qualitative panels for review. Articles containing material appearing to be both quantitative and qualitative were referred to both panels.

A double magnetic solar cycle and dynamical systems

Various solar activity data have indicated that along with the well-known 22-year cycle there is a shorter periodicity of about 2 years. To simulate this phenomenon, we constructed a dynamical system, which reproduced double-periodic behaviour of the solar cycle. Such nonlinear dynamical system described the solar αω-dynamo process with variable intensities Rα and Rω of the α-effect and the differential rotation, respectively. We have plotted the time distribution and butterfly diagrams for the poloidal and toroidal magnetic fields with dipole and quadrupole symmetries. The dynamical system with dipole symmetry of the magnetic field reproduces a regime similar to the double cycle at −450 < RαRω < −210. In the case of quadrupole symmetry, this regime exists at −220 < RαRω < −190.
Removal of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Artifacts in the Human Electrocardiogram

Death from heart diseases is the most common type of mortality in western countries and the survival rate of cardiac arrest is dismally low. In the treatment of cardiac arrest, two therapeutic methods are most important: cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR; chest compressions and ventilations) and defibrillation (electrical shocks to restart a fibrillating heart). An automated external defibrillator is commonly used for such shocks, and records and performs signal analysis on the electrocardiogram(ECG) in order to advice when to shock the patient. However, the mechanical activity during CPR introduces artifact components in the ECG. To perform reliable ECG signal analysis, CPR is therefore discontinued for a substantial time before the potential delivery of a shock. This wastes valuable therapy time, and if this hands-off time could be reduced or eliminated by removing these artifacts, it should improve the chance of return of spontaneous circulation.We propose a method for removing CPR artifacts using a novel multichannel adaptive filter, the computationally efficient and numerically robust MultiChannel Recursive Adaptive Matching Pursuit(MC-RAMP) filter. Using the most realistic data set to date, human out-of-hospital cardiac arrest data of both shockable and non-shockable rhythms, we test MC-RAMP and evaluate the feasibility of ECG analysis during CPR. In our experiments we use a shock advice algorithm and individual ECG signal features to reach the conclusion that after CPR artifact filtering, ECG rhythm analysis during ongoing CPR is feasible. Finally, we analyze and quantify the time intervals without blood flow (no flow time(NFT)) during external automatic defibrillation in cardiac arrest patients and show that these patients were not perfused around half of the time. We propose methods using CPR artifact filtering to reduce the NFT, and show their significant and promising potential. By introducing the proposed methods into defibrillators, the NFT would be significantly reduced, hopefully increasing the survival.

DOI: 10.12957/cadest.2016. 27738 O presente trabalho analisa a serie de retornos da taxa de câmbio euro-dolar, com frequencia diaria. A estacionariedade e comprovada atraves dos testes ADF e Phillips-Perron. Foi constatada a nao-normalidade da serie de retornos. A dependencia temporal dos retornos foi testada atraves das autocorrelacoes dos mesmos e posteriormente modelada. Ajustou-se a dependencia nao-linear atraves de alguns modelos da familia GARCH lineares e nao lineares. Posteriormente, avaliou-se a capacidade de previsao de cada modelo. Os resultados empiricos indicam um alto grau de persistencia da volatilidade da taxa de cambio. O modelo EGARCH foi aquele que apresentou melhor capacidade preditiva, embora os tres modelos de volatilidade condicional analisados tenham fornecido previsoes de volatilidade muito proximas.
HIV Self-testing Combined with Internet Counselling: A Low Threshold Strategy to Increase Diagnoses of HIV-infections

The proportion of undiagnosed HIV infections in the Netherlands is substantial. Increasing the HIV test uptake is important to improve individual health outcomes and reduce further spread of HIV. Self-tests for HIV have beco me available. Self-tests allow individuals to test at the privacy of their home, without involvement of any health care professional or laboratory, and may help to increas e HIV test uptake. However, there are many concerns with respect to test quality, test procedures, and medical follow up. Th is project aims to develop and evaluate a service that offers high quality HIV self-tests in combination with internet pre- an d post-test counseling to individuals at high risk for HIV. The usage of the service, its effectiveness in identifying unrecogni zed HIV infections and their follow-up in care, perceived u sability and acceptability, and cost effectiveness will be evalu ated.

Relative Design Merits and Trends in Single-Ended Ring Voltage Controlled Oscillators

Voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) is one of the most crucial components in nanometer-scale circuits for communication systems. Wide tuning range, low power demand and high operating frequency are the key features that researchers tend to focus on while designing VCOs for submicron CMOS architectures. Reported topologies of oscillators reveal the existence of two widely employed VCO designs: the inductor-capacitor (LC) VCO and the ring VCO. This review article focuses on the single-ended ring oscillator (SERO), which is classified into different categories based on topology and performance. Along with basic architectures, state-of-the-art designs that have been proposed over the years are discussed in details highlighting their relative merits. Their performances are compared and presented in a tabular form in terms of key design figures which demonstrates that modifying existing SEROs typically requires trade-offs among oscillating frequency, power dissipation, tuning range and phase noise. The analysis also suggests the application specific use of the different architectures with respect to these properties. The comprehensive review will be a suitable literature for future work.
Expression of TPX2 and Aurora A in esophageal squamous carcinoma and their significance in clinical pathology.

Objective To study the expression of TPX2 and Aurora A and their significance in squamous cell carcinoma of the esophageal (SCCE). Methods Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expressions of TPX2 in 62 cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma specimens,31 cases of adjacent atypical hyperplasia epithelium and 62 cases of normal esophageal epithelium.Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis for TPX2 and Aurora A was also performed using tumor tissues from 30 patients with the normal mucos epithelium of esophagus,lesion precancerous and esophageal carcinoma.Results Immunohistochemical study showed that the expression rates of TPX2 protein increased by normal esophageal epithelium specimens adjacent atypical hyperplasia epithelium and turns in carcinoma,which were 4.8%(3/62),51.6 %(16/31) and 85.5%(53/62) respectively.There was a significant statistic difference among the three groups(P0.05). The expression of TPX2 protein was very correlated with the histological grade,infiltrative depth and lymphatic metastasis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (P0.01). The expression of TPX2 also correlated with lymph node and infiltration.And there was a significant difference between the experimental groups and control group (P0.01). The expression rates of Aurora A protein increased by normal esophageal epithelium specimens adjacent atypical hyperplasia epithelium and turns in carcinoma,which were 3.2%(2/62),45.2%(14/31),71.0%(44/62) respectively.There was a significant statistic difference among the three groups(P0.01). The expression of Aurora A protein was correlated with the histological grade,infiltrative depth and lymphatic metastasis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (P0.01). Conclusion Expression of TPX2 and Aurora A may be a risk factor of lymph node in esophageal carcinoma.Combined examining of TPX2 and Aurora A can become one of molecular index in the early diagnosis and for the prognostic judgement of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

The Effect of Collector Shading and Masking on Optimized PV Field Designs

Photovoltaic (PV) solar fields are deployed with multiple rows. The second and subsequent rows are subject to shading and masking by the rows in front. The direct beam incident radiation on the second row is affected by shading and the diffuse incident radiation is affected by masking, expressed by sky view factor. Hence, all rows, besides the first one, receive lower incident radiation. The design of PV fields must take into account the decrease in the incident radiation caused by these two effects. The paper investigates by simulation the annual incident diffuse, direct beam and global radiation on the first and on the second row for optimized PV fields at two sites: Tel Aviv, Israel, with low diffuse component, and Lindenberg–Germany monitoring station, with a high diffuse component. The study emphasizes the importance of the diffuse incident radiation on the energy loss of the PV field. The percentage annual global energy loss due to shading and masking on the second row amounts to 1.49% in Tel Aviv and 0.46% in Lindenberg. Isotropic and anisotropic diffuse models were considered. The calculated diffuse incident energy for the isotropic model is lower than the values for anisotropic model by about 8% in Tel Aviv and 3.75% in Lindenberg.

Community-based and Innovative Technological Approaches to Improve Child Nutrition in India

Background: India is home to the largest number of underweight and stunted children in the world, but its national Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) programme has had negligible impact on the nutritional status of young infants. Aim: To use two innovative approaches – the Optifood tool and mobile phones – to strengthen counselling components of the ICDS programme to improve complementary feeding (CF) practices of 9-11 month old infants, in a rural district in Haryana state, Northern India. Methods: Optifood, a novel tool using linear programming analyses to formulate and evaluate food-based recommendations (FBRs), was used to strengthen existing ICDS FBRs. These FBRs were tested with mothers of young infants in a week-long trial, and promoted in a 6-week pilot test of a mobile phone-delivered (mHealth) intervention with 12 health workers and 60 mothers of 9-11 month old infants, using a before and after comparison. Evaluation of outcomes was based on Optifood analyses, 24-hour dietary recalls, food frequency questionnaires, open-ended structured questionnaires, an intervention development workshop, focus group discussions, and in-depth interviews. Results: Local food-based approaches are unable to meet recommended nutrient intakes (RNIs) for seven key nutrients. However, FBRs alone could ensure dietary adequacy (i.e. ≥65% Recommended Nutrient Intake) for at least six nutrients for most infants. In the trial to test FBRs, the proportion of mothers feeding their infants legumes, vegetables and fruit at endline was significantly greater (p<0.05) than at baseline; no significant increases in the proportion of mothers feeding their infants grains, dairy, fats or egg were reported. Mothers reported 19 barriers to following the promoted FBRs, which were used to develop motivating statements for their promotion in a mHealth intervention. The mHealth pilot test findings suggest that the intervention was convenient, feasible and acceptable. Based on self-report, health workers adhered to the planned contact of 20 mobile phone calls during the study period. Compared to baseline, there were significant increases (p<0.05) in the following at endline: (i) infants’ median servings per week of grains, legumes, fruit, and added fats; (ii) proportion of mothers reporting feeding eggs, undiluted milk and green leafy vegetables; (iii) proportion of infants meeting promoted FBRs for all foods except dairy; and (iv) maternal knowledge regarding food consistency. Conclusions: This is the first study to use linear programming analyses to strengthen existing governmental FBRs, and to use mobile phones for CF counselling. Findings suggest that additional, complementary intervention(s) are required to improve the micronutrient status of infants. While evidence from a randomised controlled trial is needed, study findings provide valuable insights into the utility of evidence-based FBRs and mobile phones to enhance the impact of ICDS and CF programming and research strategies in the study setting, and potentially globally.
The Impact of Concurrent Racial and Religious Discrimination on the Mental Health and Well-Being of Muslim Young Adults

Muslim Americans comprise a diverse ethnic and racial minority group in the U.S. Since September 11, 2001, Muslim Americans have reported increased levels of discrimination (Peek, 2011). However, given their multiple minority identities, it is unclear whether these experiences of discrimination are based upon their racial identity, religious identity or a combination of these identities. Informed by theories of multiple minority stress, intersectionality and resilience, the current study investigated if and how different types of perceived discrimination (racial and religious) affect the mental health and well-being of Muslim American young adults. Furthermore, the study addressed gaps in the literature regarding factors which promote resilience in the face of discrimination. Specifically, the current study explored the role of spirituality as a main or buffering effect in the presence of perceived racial and religious discrimination. In order to gain insight about potential within-group differences in the experiences of racial and religious discrimination, the current study also examined the potential interactive role of racial/ethnic group in the relationships between perceived racial and religious discrimination and mental health outcomes. This study utilized a sample of 283 Muslim American young adults. Results found that perceived racial and religious discrimination have unique and differential effects on depression and anxiety. When assessed concurrently, racial discrimination predicted depression and anxiety, religious discrimination predicted anxiety and racial discrimination predicted lower life satisfaction. Additionally, results provided evidence to support the additive model of intersectionality, as religious discrimination emerged as a distinct construct from racial discrimination, predicting unique variance in mental health outcomes over and above racial discrimination. In terms of resilience, spirituality had a compensatory effect on mental health, as higher levels of spirituality predicted lower depression and anxiety and higher life satisfaction. This study fills a gap in the current literature by identifying how specific types of perceived discrimination (measured by racial and religious discrimination) are related to Muslim young adults’ mental health outcomes and how spirituality and race/ethnicity may influence these relationships. This study also contributes to the broader theoretical understanding of discrimination, mental health and well-being in minority populations and points to the importance of continued intersectionality work on these topics.
