EARLY EDUCATION OF ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY AND PRE-RENAL PROBLEMS IN ANAPHYLACTIC SHOCK PATIENTS

Acute kidney injury (AKI) may manifest in patients experiencing anaphylactic shock. Arterial hypotension significantly contributes to the pre-renal etiology of AKI. The condition of anaphylactic shock is a life-threatening situation that requires immediate intervention. The decrease in perfusion to the renal organs in patients with acute anaphylactic shock can lead to the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). This is characterized by an increase in the Urine (U) and Creatinine (Cr) ratio (>20:1) and is reversible if promptly managed through fluid resuscitation, which results in a decrease in serum creatinine levels. Anaphylactic shock can lead to the occurrence of pre-renal acute kidney injury (AKI), which can be reversible if promptly addressed.
Desenvolvemento encefálico e cultura: condiciona a lingua a maneira de pensar?

No desenvolvemento do encéfalo humano hai factores biolóxicos, ambientais e culturais que modulan e perfilan a súa función. As interaccións ambientais e culturais exercen a súa influencia a curto prazo ao longo da vida de cada persoa; pola súa banda, as modificacións evolutivas sobre a estrutura e a función do encéfalo son un proceso lento, que vai producindo cambios ao longo de milleiros de anos. A mente consciente e a linguaxe –produtos de todas estas influencias– son propiedades emerxentes do encéfalo en funcionamento. Cal é, daquela, a relación entre a mente consciente e a linguaxe? Poden as distintas linguas orixinar procesos cognitivos distintos, distintas maneiras de pensar? Son cuestións difíciles que apuntan ao máis fondo da natureza humana. No que segue tentarei dar algúns apuntamentos desde o punto de vista da neurobioloxía e comentar o resultado de varios traballos de investigación recentes.
Conditions hydrobiologiques au large du Cap Gris-Nez (France) - premiers résultats

Hydrobiology off Cap Gris-Nez (France): first data Temperature, salinity and turbidity measurements, phytoplankton pigment analysis and densities of copepods were obtained on a sampling line across the Dover Strait. A real gradient exists from the coast to the open sea, but may be disturbed by intrusion of typically coastal waters in the open sea. The very good correlation between variations of different parameters reveals. Sorne separate water masses which can move side by side without mixing throughout the duration of a tide.
RINGS IN THE OCEAN

Certain robust, long-lived eddy features in t he world's ocean have come to be k nown as rings. The nomenclature stems from Fuglister 1 (1972), who c oined t he name based on the c ircle or ring of Gulf Stream waters t hat surrounded a class of eddies formed from t he G ulf Stream through the pinch-off of meanders . Here it s uffices to define rings as intense eddies or vortices that represent a wrapped-up piece of a major ocean c urrent. They t ranslate over space scales of hundreds to thousands of k ilometers and exist for periods lasting from months to years . Rings move t hrough the ocean carrying anomalies s imilar to the contrasts in physical, biological, and chemical properties observed across the major ocean c urrents . While the term ring is t ied to Fuglister, t he existence ofthese features was evident at least as early as t he 1930s , when Iselin 2 (1936, 1940) encountered strong cold anomalies in the region south of the Gulf Stream that we would identify as c old-corc , cyclonic rings today. Iselin fully rec ognized these features as part of the highly time-dependent eddy motion in the ocean. Later, Iselin & Fuglister (1948) were the first to survey what is now k nown as a warm-core, anticyc lonic ring. There are tw o types of rings: cold-core rings are made up of w aters from the poleward s ide of c urrents like the Gulf Stream that are introduced to
The fine structure of water‐quality dynamics: the (high‐frequency) wave of the future

*Correspondence to: James W. Kirchner, Department of Earth and Planetary Science, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-4767, USA. E-mail: kirchner@seismo.berkeley. edu Science is often driven forward by the emergence of new measurements. Whenever one makes observations at a scale, precision, or frequency that was previously unattainable, one is almost guaranteed to learn something new and interesting. Our purpose in this commentary is to argue that catchment hydrochemistry is on the verge of just such a major new advance, driven by automated, online continuous analysis for many chemical constituents in natural waters. To date, most catchment hydrochemical studies have been based on hourly or sub-hourly measurements of water fluxes, and weekly or monthly samples of rainfall and streamflow chemistry. This stark mismatch in measurement time scales springs from the measurement technologies involved. Water flux measurements are easily automated, and can be logged at any interval that is desired. Conventional laboratory measurements of water chemistry, by contrast, are time consuming and expensive, and at high sampling frequencies the sample bottles pile up fast. For this reason, high-frequency chemical monitoring has typically been restricted to intensive studies of individual storm events. That is now changing. Field-deployable autoanalysers are now a reality, and ion-specific electrodes continue to improve. These technological developments promise to provide measurements of rainfall and streamflow chemistry at hourly or sub-hourly intervals (similar to the time scales at which hydrometric data have long been available) and to provide these measurements for long spans of time, not just for intensive field campaigns associated with individual storms. These technologies are likely to transform our view of catchment processes, by allowing us to observe their hydrochemical evolution at temporal resolutions that are orders of magnitude finer than before. Continuous online measurements of pH and electrical conductivity have been available for years, and they provide a preview of the high-frequency hydrochemical behaviour that will become observable through automated online chemical analysis (e.g. Robson, 1993; Robson et al., 1993, 1995; Jarvie et al., 2001). Figure 1 shows part of a year-long time series of hourly measurements of electrical conductivity at Plynlimon, Wales (Robson et al., 1992, 1993), along with daily, weekly, and monthly subsamples of the same record to illustrate the dramatic loss of information that occurs at lower sampling

COMPUTER ANALYSIS OF A GLACIER INVENTORY OF AXEL HEIBERG ISLAND: CANADIAN ARCTIC ARCHIPELAGO

Abstract Based on the I.H. D. Resolution 1–12 the Commission of Snow and Ice of the I.A. S.H. prepared guide lines for the recording and mapping of the worldwide distribution, water equivalent and related data of 1) the total seasonal snow cover, 2) the sea, lake and river ice, and 3) the perennial ice and snow masses on and beneath the land surfaces. Using the glacier inventory as an example, the problems of standardization and presentation of data are discussed. The operation of a computer program written for a Univac 1108 and the use of its ‘control’ cards for the analysis of glacier inventory data from a test area in the Canadian Arctic (Axel Heiberg Island) is outlined. The program presently sorts according to characteristics and classification numbers. A range of variables may be chosen and any one variable is averaged, totalled or histogrammed as instructed by the control cards. A brief description of the program is included. The development of a second stage to the program is envisaged.
Metamaterial-Based Series-Fed Antenna with a High Gain and Wideband Performance for Millimeter-Wave Spectrum Applications

This paper presents a high-gain, wideband series-fed antenna designed for 5G millimeter-wave (MMW) applications. The structure employs a substrate-integrated-waveguide (SIW)-based power splitter and metamaterials (MMs). The power divider functions effectively at 27.5 GHz, exhibiting an impedance bandwidth from 26.9 to 28.6 GHz. The series-fed dipole is assembled on the SIW-based power splitter, incorporating four dipoles with varying lengths and spacing. The dipoles are connected in series on both sides, running in parallel through a microstrip line. Effectively combining the resonances of the series-fed dipoles and the SIW results in a broad impedance bandwidth, ranging from 26.9 GHz to 34.75 GHz. The design has a gain extending from 9 to 10.5 dBi within the operating bandwidth. To improve gain performance without a substantial increase in antenna size, 11 × 6 MM unit cells were positioned in front of the antenna. As a result, the proposed antenna achieves a maximum gain of 14.1 dBi at 30.5 GHz while maintaining an operational bandwidth of 7.85 GHz. Additionally, due to the arrangement of the two MM-based series-fed dipoles, the antenna exhibits symmetrical dual-beam E-plane radiation at ±20° and 28 GHz in the end-fire direction. The developed system was experimentally validated and an excellent agreement between the simulated and measured data was demonstrated.
A Survey of Digital Government: Science Mapping Approach, Application Areas, and Future Directions

With the rapid development of digital technologies, digital transformation reshapes the functioning of governments. Digital government (DG) aims to leverage technology to enhance the delivery of public services, improve efficiency, and foster transparency. Embracing DG is a strategic imperative for governments looking to provide effective, transparent, and citizen-centric services in the 21st century. Therefore, many government organizations have intensified their DG efforts in response to its necessity. However, there is little clarity in the previous literature and a lack of uniform understanding among government employees, policymakers, and citizens regarding the concept of DG. Therefore, this study aims to analyze current DG research with science mapping, classify the research areas, and propose future directions for upcoming studies. A search was conducted on Web of Science and Scopus databases since the year 2000. VOSViewer software was used for visualizing and exploring bibliometric networks. This study is one of the first attempts to examine the DG area using the science mapping approach. Selected publications were categorized into research areas, and future directions were presented to bridge the identified research gaps. According to our results, the five main research areas are DG transformation, cybersecurity, public participation and social media, open government data and transparency, and e-Government adoption models. This study guides practitioners, academics, policymakers, and public employees in planning their future studies.
Illustrative components of the geological environment

In this chapter we provide an account of the contribution made by the Geosphere, in particular bedrock geological materials (part of the lithosphere), groundwater and hydrochemistry to the development of a GDF. In order to put this in context we provide a brief account of the general requirements of these attributes, particularly in respect of the post closure safety and, to a lesser extent, the construction phase of the GDF. We also provide a brief summary of the international approach to using bedrock geological materials and go on to describe the summary properties from a range of bedrock geological materials (lithologies and formations) in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, illustrated from well-documented examples.
Development of a Building Inventory and Vulnerability Database for Pakistan

Pakistan has experienced several devastating earthquakes resulting in a large number of casualties and building damage. During the last six years, two damaging earthquakes struck different parts of the country, i.e., 2005 Kashmir earthquake and 2008 Baluchistan earthquake. They have provided an opportunity to assess building performance under strong earthquakes, and have informed the development of a building inventory database. A comprehensive and accurate database of building inventory is a crucial part of an earthquake risk assessment methodology and appropriate definition of building classification leads to a more accurate attribution of building vulnerability. For the present study area in Pakistan, typical building types are identified and a detailed database of the building inventory has been compiled for the country. The distribution of typical building types in all tehsils (administrative regions) of the country has been mapped in a Geographical Information System (GIS) environment. The developed database has been validated in six field surveys, carried in selected cities of Pakistan. Results from these field surveys demonstrated the damage cases and identified the damage contributing parameters along with type of failure mechanisms which were observed in the above mentioned events. The study presented here provides useful data layers for earthquake risk assessment at a national level in Pakistan and has a close relation with the recent developments in the field of earthquake risk assessment, i.e., USGS’s Prompt Assessment of Global Earthquakes for Response (PAGER) and the Global Earthquake Model (GEM).
Characterization of two forms of sepiolite and related Mg-rich clay minerals from Yenidoğan (Sivrihisar, Turkey)

Abstract An Early Pliocene sedimentary succession in the Yenidoğan area, Sivrihisar, Turkey, consists of sepiolite, stevensite, kerolite, dolomite and magnesite. The geology, mineralogy and geochemistry of the succession was examined by extensive field work along several trenches and a representative measured section, followed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermal, and chemical analyses. Structurally, two distinct forms of sepiolites were distinguished by XRD: (a) well crystallized sepiolite with a 110 reflection at 12.07-12.3 Å, and (b) poorly crystallized sepiolite in which the 110 reflection occurs at 12.7-13.0 Å (denoted as sepiolite-13Å ). Differences in crystal chemistry, thermal and morphological properties of these forms, the vibrational spectra and XRD characterization of the related phyllosilicates were also documented. Stevensite, kerolite and sepiolite were formed by direct precipitation from alkaline lake water rich in Mg and Si. Sepiolite-13Å was probably formed by transformation from precursor smectite via dissolution-precipitation, more likely during early diagenesis. Environmental conditions such as ion concentration, salinity and variations in pH may have controlled the formation of the phyllosilicates.
CoMoSAOVA: Computational model for sentiment analysis and online visibility assessment

The online visibility of a brand, product or organization could influence customers’ decision to patronize it. Online reviews are opinions or emotions of customers that reveal their perception about the product over a period of time. The manual identification of features and sentiments toward an entity is a difficult task. In this study, a computational model was proposed to measure online visibility by mining Twitter data on discourse about a corporate entity – University of The Gambia. The numbers of Twitter posts, followers, followings, likes, retweets, quotes, replies and mentions serves as metrics for online visibility assessment. A linear regression evaluation between the age of the entity’s account and the number of its followers showed 96.81% correlation. This shows that the older an active Twitter account, the higher the chance of increasing its followers and its visibility. Another section of the model predicts the tweet sentiment of the entity’s followers with an accuracy of 93.68% using support vector machine and multilayer perceptron neural network. The computed average sentiment score of the case study was 0.3531996 based on Valence Aware Dictionary of sEntiment Reasoning (VADER) model. This means that positive sentiments were expressed in discussions on various issues where the entity was mentioned. The model will enable decision makers understand the sentiments expressed towards an entity. It also estimates online visibility of the entity based on its number of followers and the accounts’ lifespan. The perceived sentiments will aid better decisions that could advance loyalty to the entity. Future studies would examine other computational models to predict various Twitter features that increases an entity's online visibility.
Exploring Zentangle as a virtual mindfulness-based art intervention for people with serious mental illness

Introduction Zentangle is an emerging art intervention that incorporates mindfulness into creative drawing. This pilot study explored Zentangle as a novel adjunct treatment for people with serious mental illness (SMI). Methods Six participants with SMI completed an 8-week Zentangle program. Psychiatric outcomes were evaluated using the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), and Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Scale (Q-LES-Q-SF). A focus group was conducted to better understand the experiences of the participants. Results A significant reduction in psychiatric symptoms was observed as measured by the total score on the BPRS between baseline and 5-week post-intervention (40.7 ± 9.1 vs. 33.7 ± 8.9, mean ± SD, p = 0.02). Participants also showed a significant increase in mindful attention using the average score on the MAAS between 1- and 5-week post-intervention (3.5 ± 0.4 vs. 4.2 ± 0.7, mean ± SD, p = 0.04). Four themes were generated from the focus group: (1) approaching mindfulness through Zentangle; (2) power of uncomplicated art creation; (3) understanding the value of self-appreciation; and (4) fostering a positive environment. Discussion Our preliminary data suggest that the use of Zentangle for participants with SMI may have a positive impact on overall psychiatric symptoms and mindfulness. Moreover, the Zentangle Method encourages positive emotions like gratitude and self-accomplishment to counteract negative feelings of self-criticism and failure in participants.

Additionally, a texturing treatment was applied to the top undoped GaN surface. The texturing time was optimized to prevent a total reflective effect and further enhance the light extraction efficiency. As a result, the emission output power (@ 30 mA) and EQEmax of the <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\mu $ </tex-math></inline-formula>LED textured for 2 minutes exhibited 1.35 times and 1.64 times higher values as compared with those of <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\mu $ </tex-math></inline-formula>LED with a sapphire substrate, respectively.
Sensitivity of Atmospheric Radiative Heating Rate Profiles to Variations of Cloud Layer Overlap

Abstract Three different cloud overlap schemes are applied to the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) vertical distribution of clouds in the radiative transfer model from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Goddard Institute for Space Studies climate GCM to study the sensitivity of radiative fluxes and atmospheric radiative heating rate profiles to variations in cloud vertical structure. This study differs from previous ones because the ISCCP dataset constrains the total column optical thickness of the clouds at each location, a fact that is used to constrain cloud overlap occurrence. Moreover, this study considers the effects of cloud vertical structure on both shortwave (SW) and longwave (LW) fluxes at the top of the atmosphere, at the surface, and in the atmosphere. The in-atmosphere net fluxes are decomposed further into vertical profiles of radiative heating and cooling rates. The results show that the changes in the top-of-atmosphere (TOA) and surface (SRF) radiat.
Rôle prédictif de l'activité physique sur la force musculaire du sujet âgé

Objective: to study the relationship between body composition, knee isokinetic muscle strength, and physical activity over lifetime and during specific age periods in healthy elderly men and women aged 60 years and over. Methods: peak torque measurement of right and left knee extensors and flexors were realized using a Biodex dynamometer in 25 men (age: 70.3 ± 7.1 years) and 49 women (age: 70.0 ± 6.3 years). Physical activity was measured using QUANTAP, a computer-assisted questionnaire designed to quantify lifetime physical activity. Relationship between peak torque and physical activity was studied in multiple regression models including following variables: sex, age, height, weight, lean mass, and interaction between sex and age and sex and lean mass. Results: whatever the model considered, lean mass and age explain muscular performance. Past year, past 20 years and lifetime sport activity explain peak torque of the knee (R2 = 0.71, 0.69 and 0.68 respectively). Conclusion: Aging is associated with decreased muscle strength resulting in an increased risk of dependent living. These data suggests that physical activity over lifetime contribute to preserve muscular performance with advancing age.
