“STOP the PUFF! Tayo’y mag bagong BAGA, SIGARILYO ay ITIGIL”: A Pilot Community-based Tobacco Intervention Project in an Urban Settlement

The success rate for smoking cessation in the country remain low despite the intensified efforts of the government to curb smoking. There is a need to support tobacco control policies with clinical interventions for smoking cessation. However, cessation experts in the country are few and healthcare workers with training on tobacco interventions are limited. The project aimed to address the clinical aspect of tobacco control by establishing tobacco cessation services in the community. This was done by providing brief tobacco intervention training among health workers and community leaders, thus allowing this intervention to be integrated in the existing programs of the community health center. This also led to the creation of possible referral mechanisms to cessation support providers. This was complemented with health education activities that promote smoke-free behavior.

Nutritional and Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) Status Association with Fall among Older Persons in Malaysia: Findings from National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS) Malaysia 2018

ntroduction Fall is a health problem for older persons. This study investigates the potential factors of concern: the nutritional status of the elderly and non-communicable disease association with incidents of falls. Methods and Materials This study used data from NHMS 2018, a cross-sectional design, applied two-stage stratified cluster sampling. Descriptive statistics such as the percentage of each variable were done. Factors associated with falls were determined at both univariate and multivariable levels using simple logistic regression and multiple logistic regression. The data were presented as standard values for each analysis and adjusted odds ratios with 95% CI with p values (<0.05). Results A total of 3,867 from 3,977 elderly (mean age 68.2+ 6.85) were recruited with the response rate of 97.2%. Factors associated with fall were 70 years old and above (AOR= 1.34, 95% CI: 1.09, 1.64), obesity (AOR=1.55, 95% CI: 1.21, 1.98), undernutrition (AOR=1.59, 95% CI: 1.30, 1.94), persons with 2 NCDs (AOR=1.49, 95% CI: 1.15, 1.92) and persons with 3 NCDs (AOR=1.63, 95% CI: 1.23, 2.16). Discussion and Conclusion Advanced age, malnutrition, obesity, and having two or more NCD are associated with falls in the NHMS 2018 study. In conclusion, falls are prevalent among older persons. There is an urgent need for public health strategies to decrease the incidence and early identification of those at risk. Implementation of fall preventive programs can also significantly reduce falls among the elderly.
PrivKVM*: Revisiting Key-Value Statistics Estimation With Local Differential Privacy

A key factor in big data analytics and artificial intelligence is the collection of user data from a large population. However, the collection of user data comes at the price of privacy risks, not only for users but also for businesses who are vulnerable to internal and external data breaches. To address privacy issues, local differential privacy (LDP) has been proposed to enable an untrusted collector to obtain accurate statistical estimation on sensitive user data (e.g., location, health, and financial data) without actually accessing the true records. As key-value data is an extremely popular NoSQL data model, there are a few works in the literature that study LDP-based statistical estimation on key-value data. However, these works have some major limitations, including supporting small key space only, fixed key collection range, difficulty in choosing an appropriate padding length, and high communication cost. In this article, we propose a two-phase mechanism <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$PrivKVM^*$</tex-math><alternatives><mml:math><mml:mrow><mml:mi>P</mml:mi><mml:mi>r</mml:mi><mml:mi>i</mml:mi><mml:mi>v</mml:mi><mml:mi>K</mml:mi><mml:mi>V</mml:mi><mml:msup><mml:mi>M</mml:mi><mml:mo>*</mml:mo></mml:msup></mml:mrow></mml:math><inline-graphic xlink:href="ye-ieq1-3107512.gif"/></alternatives></inline-formula> as an optimized and highly-complete solution to LDP-based key-value data collection and statistics estimation. We verify its correctness and effectiveness through rigorous theoretical analysis and extensive experimental results.

Pathogenicity Mechanism of Candida albicans

In normal human microbiome, the polymorphic fungus Candida albicans is a crucial member. C. albicans resides mostly in individual as harmless commensal life. In specific situations, however, C. albicans can cause diseases that cause contaminations of the skin to life-threatening fundamental contaminations. Pathogenesis of Candida species is contributed by multiple factors. Some of the major contributors are enlisted here. These include host pathogen interaction, receptors molecule like TLR recognition, TLR signaling, C type lectin receptors, Dectin 1,2 and 3, mannose receptor, mincle, DC sign, Nod-Like Receptors (NLRs) and inflammasomes, soluble molecules in candida recognition, cellular responses to candida such as neutrophils, macrophages. This chapter enlightens all the components of candida pathogenicity by the assessment of Candida species pathogenic determinants. All together these will explain the current knowledge about how these determinant factors and receptors modulate virulence as well as consequent infection. Better understanding of candida pathogenicity mechanism can be the resultant of better treatment guidelines along with development of novel antifungal agents. Overall, in this review we present an update in the current understanding of the insight of pathogenicity mechanisms in this important human pathogen.
Risk Factor Prevalence of Late Onset Preeclampsia in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya

Introduction: Preeclampsia is a condition of hypertension that occurs after 20 weeks of gestation, followed by the detection of protein in the urine sample, and is one of the major causes of maternal mortality. It is categorized, based on time of gestation, into 2-stage are early and late-onset. One of the more accessible tools in diagnosing and also preventing preeclampsia is by its risk factors. The aim of this study was to observe the appearance of some of the risk factors in patients with late-onset preeclampsia and to allow a better approach in patients with said comorbidities.Methods: This was a descriptive observational study. The sample used was 35 patients diagnosed with late-onset preeclampsia in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya from January to December 2016.Results: Among 35 patients diagnosed with late-onset preeclampsia, obesity (65.71%) appeared the most. Maternal age (37.15%) and primigravida (28.57%) appeared in second and third places. Chronic hypertension appeared only in 6 (17.14%) patients, whereas multiple pregnancies appeared in 3 (8.57%). Both patients with a history of previous preeclampsia and diabetes mellitus only appeared once (2.86%). Conclusion: Obesity has the most appearance in patients with late-onset preeclampsia, followed by maternal age and primigravida.
Extracts of Jordanian Date Palm Fruit (Phoenix Dactylifera L.) Inhibit Human Mammary Adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) Cells In Vitro by Inducing Cell Viability

Worldwide, and in Jordan specifically, date palm fruit production has been steadily increasing. Recently, various dates extracts have been used functionally as antioxidants or anticancer agents. In addition, Jordanian date palm fruit of Barhi variety at two maturity stages (Rutab) and (Tamr) inhibited chemically-induced mammary cancer in animal model. The aim of this study is to strengthen the scientific evidence on the effect of dates on mammary cancer via assessing the effect of different concentrations of water extracts of three varieties of dates grown in Jordan (Barhi, Belle Huwaimil, and Medjool) at two maturity stages (Rutab and Tamr) on the viability of MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. The effects of different extracts on MCF7 inhibition/proliferation was analyzed using MTT assay. Percentage of inhibition was calculated. The most effective concentration was 100 mg/ml for all varieties. At this concentration, Medjool variety at the Tamr stage exhibited the highest inhibition. At the 12.5 and 25 mg/ml concentrations of the extracts, the most effective date palm fruit varieties were Belle Huwaimil and Barhi at the Tamr stage respectively. At lower concentrations (3.125 and 6.25 mg/ml), Medjool at the Tamr stage and Belle Huwaimil respectively were the most effective extracts were Barhi at the Tamr and Rutab stages were the least effective (P=0.000**). It is concluded that water extract of palm fruit reduced MCF-7 cell viability.
Extremely low-Ni olivine as a tracer of carbonate-rich sediment recycling beneath the southwestern Okinawa Trough

ABSTRACT Carbonate recycling in subduction zones has a strong influence on arc magmatism and carbon reservoirs in the mantle. However, geochemical evidence of carbonate recycling during subduction, especially at sub-arc depths, is rare and the related process is poorly understood. In this study, we document high-Mg olivines (81–91 mol.% forsterite) with extremely low Ni concentrations (mostly <600 ppm), which occur in host dacites recovered from the southwestern Okinawa Trough (SWOT). The temperature–pressure of crystallization had a negligible effect on the Ni contents of the olivines, and reactions between primary basaltic magmas and the lithospheric mantle were also insignificant. Small sulphide droplets are present in the olivines, which suggest that sulphide–silicate melt immiscibility occurred during the early stages of magmatic evolution. Although early segregation of sulphide melts could reduce the Ni contents of the primitive magmas, our forward modelling suggests that sulphide segregation cannot solely explain the low Ni contents. Therefore, the most likely explanation for low Ni concentrations is the interaction between Ca-rich carbonate melts and the mantle wedge, forming an olivine-rich mantle source by consumption of orthopyroxene, as indicated by the extremely low Ni/Mg and high Ca/Fe ratios of magmatic olivines. Given that the SWOT is located just ~100 km above the Wadati–Benioff zone, our results provide rare evidence for carbonate recycling at sub-arc depths in an active subduction zone.
Miasmatic evolution in polycystic ovarian syndrome with reportorial analysis

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrinopathy typified by oligo-ovulation or anovulation, signs of androgen excess, and multiple small ovarian cysts. In case of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, it is the Psoric miasm which initially brings about functional changes followed by involvement of Sycotic miasm which leads to cystic changes in ovary. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, therefore, is the result of combinations of Psoric and Sycotic miasms in the sick individual, which through neuro-hormonal pathway, leads to imbalance of hormones and formation of cysts. The reportorial it is been emphasized with best possible rubrics which can be used while treating Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.
The drought‒dieback‒death conundrum in trees and forests

ABSTRACT Background: Climate warming is amplifying and exacerbating drought stress worldwide. Long-term trends of increasing evaporative demand and decreasing soil moisture availability occur superimposed on severe spells of drought. These rare, extreme droughts have triggered episodes of forest dieback that have led to reduced productivity and rising mortality rates, usually at small scales (dieback hotspots), but affecting biomes worldwide. Aims: This review summarizes and discusses the drivers, patterns and mechanisms of forest dieback caused by drought. Methods: I review studies on forest dieback and tree death linked to dry spells with a focus on tools to forecast dieback. Results: Several mechanisms have been described as physiological drivers of dieback, including hydraulic failure and carbon starvation, however hydraulics-based models have shown little predictive power of dieback and mortality. Field proxies of tree vigour, including changes in canopy defoliation and water content, combined with surrogates of tree functioning (tree-ring growth, wood anatomy, tree-ring δ13C or δ18O composition) may improve predictions of forest dieback or at least render early-warning signals of impending tree death. Conclusions: Drought-induced dieback and mortality are concerning phenomena which lack forecasting tools with sufficient predictive power. Surrogates of tree vigour, growth and functioning should be used to build more accurate models of tree death in response to extreme climate events linked to drought. Here, I argue for combining and comparing those surrogates to better forecast forest dieback.
Financing Social Enterprises: An Upper Echelon Perspective

Social entrepreneurship literature is silent on what governs social enterprises’ (SE) financing decisions in contexts where there are no clear legal distinctions between social and commercial enterprises. Using a qualitative multiple case study approach, this research explores how social entrepreneurs decide their financial strategies and evaluate investors in such contexts where such blurred boundaries exist. The case study of nine Indian SEs operating in emerging sectors of health, education, and agriculture reveals social entrepreneurs’ perspectives on SE financing and practical dilemmas faced when moving beyond donation is considered. Our findings present that the organizational factors governing their financing strategy and due diligence criteria used for investor evaluation reflect the social entrepreneur’s value-based lens of self-conceptualizing their own vision of ‘What is a Social Enterprise’ in their financial decisions. Though this does not adhere to popular capital structure theories used in commercial finance, it conforms with Hambrick and Mason’s Upper Echelons Theory, which states that organizations reflect their top executive’s values and belief in their decisions. We observe in our study that self-discretion and value expression is a contextual necessity for social entrepreneurs operating in emerging sectors where there are no clear legal distinctions in organizational forms or theoretical directives on financing decisions.
Doped conductive polymers and single-walled carbon nanotubes as charge storage devices

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), introduced as nano-fillers, were used as charge storage elements. Organic semiconducting polymers were produced by doping organic plasticizers with nonconductive polymers. The nano-fillers were embedded along with organic semiconducting and insulating polymers in constructing metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) capacitors classified as organic capacitors. The capacitors were constructed by conventional spin-coating method with metallic electrodes fabricated by means of thermal evaporation. A comparative study was investigated on two device configurations that were built. One with the use of the organic semiconducting polymers and the other with commercially available doped silicon wafer as the semiconductor. Capacitance versus voltage measurements were analyzed on the two configurations to evaluate the storage performance of the devices. The results showed that the device that contained the organic polymeric charge transport layer stored more charge in the SWCNT nano-fillers when compared with the device that contained the silicon wafer. The results also depicted that the embedded SWCNTs were responsible for storing the charge when compared with reference devices that did not contain these nano-fillers.
Characterization of Exhaust CO, HC and NOx Emissions from Light-Duty Vehicles under Real Driving Conditions

On-road exhaust emissions from light-duty vehicles are greatly influenced by driving conditions. In this study, two light-duty passenger cars (LDPCs) and three light-duty diesel trucks (LDDTs) were tested to investigate the on-road emission factors (EFs) with a portable emission measurement system. Emission characteristics of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emitted from vehicles at different speeds, accelerations and vehicle specific power (VSP) were analyzed. The results demonstrated that road conditions have significant impacts on regulated gaseous emissions. CO, NOx, and HC emissions from light-duty vehicles on urban roads increased by 1.1–1.5, 1.2–1.4, and 1.9–2.6 times compared with those on suburban and highway roads, respectively. There was a rough positive relationship between transient CO, NOx, and HC emission rates and vehicle speeds, while the EFs decreased significantly with the speed decrease when speed ≤ 20 km/h. The emissions rates of NOx and HC tended to increase and then decrease as the acceleration increased and the peak occurred at 0 m/s2 without considering idling conditions. For HC and CO, the emission rates were low and changed gently with VSP when VSP < 0, while emission rates increased gradually with the VSP increase when VSP > 0. For NOx NOx emission rates were lower and had no obvious change when VSP < 0. However, NOx emissions were positively correlated with VSP, when VSP > 0.

Unsupervised Anomaly Detection Based on System Logs

—The anomaly detection based on rich and descriptive system logs is critical to securing information systems. Existing techniques rarely consider semantic information of logs in the detection, resulting in their incapability to handle unseen log events, neither further improve their detection rates. This paper proposes a CNN and LSTM based anomaly detection approach. It utilizes the meaning of log entries — the semantic information of logs in the detection, where the relations among short sequences are automatically learned. The results of comparative experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach on both stable(ﬁxed format) and unstable(unseen, unﬁxed format) logs.
The indications and outcome of percutaneous trans-arterial embolization of the uterine artery: A single center experience

Objectives : The aim of this Cross-Sectional study was to identify the various indications and its outcome of Uterine artery embolization. Materials & Methods : Adult Patients, symptomatic, who underwent Uterine artery embolization for obstetrical and gynaecological indications, availability of pre and post procedural imaging and clinical data were included from the interventional radiology department and Maternity hospital between January 2009 December 2019. Results : A total of 16 women, 11 (68.8%) with uterine fibroids, 5 (31.4%) with post-partum haemorrhage due to placental disease, one with arteriovenous malformation, and one with cervical ectopic pregnancy were observed. Bleeding almost ceased in 50%, but symptoms recurred in 25% of the patients, 3 of whom required hysterectomy. Pain post-procedure was common (100%) followed by transient vaginal bleeding (81.2%). Less common complications included radial artery thrombosis, development of small pseudoaneurysm of the radial artery and non-target embolization noticed. However, large prospective studies are required to establish the long-term outcomes and effectiveness.
Refertilization of Mantle Peridotites from the Central Indian Ridge: Response to a Geodynamic Transition

The phenomena of reactive percolation of enriched asthenospheric melts and pervasive melt-rock interactions at mid oceanic ridge-rift systems are the principal proponents for mantle refertilization and compositional heterogeneity. This study presents new mineralogical and geochemical data for the abyssal peridotites exposed along the Vema and Vityaz fracture zones of the Central Indian Ridge (CIR) to address factors contributing to the chemical heterogeneity of CIR mantle. Cr-spinel (Cr#: 0.37-0.59) chemistry classifies these rocks as alpine-type peridotites and corroborates a transitional depleted MORB type to enriched, SSZ-related arc-type magma composition. HFSE and REE geochemistry further attests to an enriched intraoceanic forearc mantle affinity. The distinct boninitic signature of these rocks reflected by LREE>MREE<HREE and PGE compositions substantiates refertilization of the CIR mantle harzburgites by boninitic melt percolation concomitant to initiation of oceanic subduction. The mineral chemistry, trace, and PGE signatures of the CIR peridotites envisage (i) replenishment of depleted sub-ridge upper mantle by impregnation of subduction-derived boninitic melts, (ii) tectonic transition from mid oceanic ridge-rift to an embryonic suprasubduction zone, and (iii) initiation of spontaneous intraoceanic subduction along submarine transform faults and fracture zones of slow-spreading CIR owing to the weakness and mechanical instability of older, denser, and negatively buoyant Indian Ocean lithosphere.
