Pornografija, stav o uporabi kondoma i uporaba kondoma kod riječkih adolescenata

Jednostavnost pristupa internetskoj pornografiji izazvala je zabrinutost odgojnih stručnjaka i opće javnosti zbog negativnih učinaka pornografije na psihosocijalno i seksualno sazrijevanje adolescenata. Pretpostavljena povezanost između uporabe pornografije i rizičnog seksualnog ponašanja, posebice nezaštićenog spolnog odnosa, često se nalazi u središtu pozornosti. Prema dosadašnjim istraživanjima, stav o uporabi kondoma važan je prediktor stvarne uporabe kondoma. Međutim, razmjerno je malo studija analiziralo povezanost između uporabe pornografije, stava o uporabi kondoma i uporabe kondoma među adolescentima. Konceptualni okvir ove studije čini nedavno razvijeni model akvizicije, aktivacije i aplikacije (3AM). Cilj je ove studije analiza longitudinalne povezanosti između učestalosti uporabe pornografije te stava o uporabi kondoma i uporabe kondoma pri posljednjem spolnom odnosu. Podaci su prikupljeni metodom ankete u dva vala među učenicima/ama 14 riječkih srednjih škola od 2015. do 2018. godine (N=227; Mdob=17,3; SD=0,5). Kontrolirajući traženje uzbuđenja i permisivne stavove o seksualnosti, provedena je višegrupna ukrižena analiza primjenom strukturalnog modeliranja. Utvrđena je longitudinalna povezanost između učestalosti uporabe pornografije i negativnijeg stava o uporabi kondoma, ali samo kod mladića. Nije utvrđena longitudinalna povezanost između uporabe pornografije i uporabe kondoma. Povrh rasprave o rezultatima, zaključno se razmatraju preporuke za daljnja istraživanja i praktične implikacije. Dobiveni nalazi mogu poslužiti stručnjacima iz područja obrazovanja, medijske pismenost i javnog zdravstva, ali i široj javnosti.
A 1.55-to-32-Gb/s Four-Lane Transmitter with 3-Tap Feed Forward Equalizer and Shared PLL in 28-nm CMOS

This paper presents a fully integrated physical layer (PHY) transmitter (TX) suiting for multiple industrial protocols and compatible with different protocol versions. Targeting a wide operating range, the LC-based phase-locked loop (PLL) with a dual voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) was integrated to provide the low jitter clock. Each lane with a configurable serialization scheme was adapted to adjust the data rate flexibly. To achieve high-speed data transmission, several bandwidth-extended techniques were introduced, and an optimized output driver with a 3-tap feed-forward equalizer (FFE) was proposed to accomplish high-quality data transmission and equalization. The TX prototype was fabricated in a 28-nm CMOS process, and a single-lane TX only occupied an active area of 0.048 mm2. The shared PLL and clock distribution circuits occupied an area of 0.54 mm2. The proposed PLL can support a tuning range that covers 6.2 to 16 GHz. Each lane’s data rate ranged from 1.55 to 32 Gb/s, and the energy efficiency is 1.89 pJ/bit/lane at a 32-Gb/s data rate and can tune an equalization up to 10 dB.
Knowledge and self-reported confidence in antimicrobial stewardship programme among final year pharmacy undergraduate students in Malaysia and Nigeria

Objective: This study evaluated the knowledge and self-reported confidence of antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) among pharmacy students in Malaysia and Nigeria. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among final year undergraduate pharmacy students in a university from both Nigeria and Malaysia using a 59-item online questionnaire. Results: A total of 150 final year undergraduate pharmacy students completed the questionnaire. Exposure to infectious diseases clerkship was higher among the Malaysian students (78.2% versus 25.4%; p < 0.001). Overall, the knowledge score for antibiotic resistance and AMS were comparable (6.2 ± 1.5 and 3.6 ± 1.2, respectively versus 5.9 ± 1.6 and 3.3 ± 1.3). The knowledge of antibiotic therapy was higher among the Malaysian students (5.4 ± 1.8 versus 4.2 ± 1.8; p < 0.001) while self-reported confidence to participate in AMS was higher among the Nigerian students (median 48.0, IQR 26 – 75 versus median 36.5, IQR 15 – 75; p < 0.001). Conclusions: Pharmacy students in Malaysia and Nigeria have appreciable knowledge of antibiotic resistance, antibiotic therapy and AMS. More training on topics is recommended to improve the skills and competency of future pharmacists to participate in AMS.
Neurobehavioral Changes: An under looked aspect of Head Injury

Background: Different types of behavioral changes are seen in head injury patients, and these changes are directly or indirectly related to daily activities. Major alterations of personality after head injury are generally seen in the patients with severe head injury. However, disturbing post-concussional symptoms like headache, dizziness and memory problems generally persists for few months even in the less severely injured ones. Materials and methods: Objective: To analyze the neurobehavioral changes in adult head injured patients. Study design: Prospective analytical study. Sampling technique: Non - probability consecutive sampling. Site of study: National Institute of Neurological and Allied Sciences, Bansbari, Nepal. Inclusion Criteria: All head injured patients above the age of 16 years. Exclusion Criteria: Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale of less than 3 at 6 months follow up. Data Collection and Analysis: All patients above the age of 16 years with head injury who got admitted were enrolled in the study. Parameters like age, gender, mode of injury, GCS at presentation were recorded. Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale along with Neurobehavioral rating was evaluated at 6 months. Then neurobehavioral rating scale was obtained by direct interview. Data analysis was done using SPSS v.20. Results: Total number patients were 76 among which 71% were below 40 years of age and majorities (87%) were males. Neurobehavioral categories like abnormal intentional behavior, lowered emotional state, heightened emotional state, arousal state and language had significant association with GCS at presentation and EGOS at 6 months. Similarly, age had significant association with language, where there was absent to mild language difficulty in patients below 40 years of age. Likewise, language difficulty, lower emotional state and abnormal intentional behavior were significantly associated with gender, as it was mild to severe in 30% of the female population who had sustained head injury. Conclusion: Several neurobehavioral characters seem to be present in the various categories of the head injured patients in different ratios. Language problems seems to be less in the younger patients below the age of 40 years; although, few neurobehavioral parameters seems to affects the females more common compared to male counterparts. Also, family disruption and its extent of severity was significantly related to the severity of head injury.

Metaphors of Academics in Turkey for Distance Education

Metaphors are important ways to show how people perceive the world and life around them. By creating metaphors, people show how they position themselves life, and that of other people, their environment, and situations in their minds and what the phenomenon, for which they create a metaphor, means to them in today's world. This has been affected by COVID-19, as conducting education on a distance basis has revealed the need to examine the perceptions of people about distance education. The perceptions of academicians about distance education are also highly important, as they directly affect the learning success and performance of students. In this study, metaphors were addressed in order to determine the perceptions of academicians in Turkey about distance education. In this study, metaphors were collected from 520 academicians working at different universities. The metaphors created by the academicians about distance education were subjected to content analysis and the data were analyzed. As a result of the study, it was determined that the academicians created positive, negative, and neutral metaphors about distance education; however, they mostly used negative metaphors.
Importancia de las finanzas personales en la salud financiera: una reflexión teórica

Lograr llevar a cabo finanzas personales suele parecer una tarea muy sencilla, sin embargo, para lograrlo es necesario una serie de conocimientos y habilidades financieras. No obstante, las personas no cuentan con una amplia alfabetización financiera, lo cual hace difícil esta labor de alcanzar una salud financiera, misma que se puede lograr a través de la educación financiera, pues la falta de esta misma afecta en los niveles de ingreso de las personas y como consecuencia no recurren al ahorro, no planifican un presupuesto, presentan sobreendeudamiento, entre otros. A su vez, al no estar incluidos financieramente no les permite aprovechar las oportunidades que el Sistema Financiero brinda como por ejemplo: el acceso al ahorro o a la inversión. Lo mencionado anteriormente trae como consecuencia que los individuos difícilmente puedan alcanzar un nivel de bienestar financiero. Por ello, el propósito de este ensayo es destacar la importancia que tiene la educación financiera en la vida de las personas, con el fin de administrar sus finanzas personales, lo que ayudaría a enfrentar contingencias económicas que se presentan con frecuencia.

Why do we call it addiction? Epistemological reflections on the world of addiction

Starting from its definition, the topic of addiction has revealed its epistemological framework. Addiction derives from the Latin addictus, a term used in ancient Rome to indicate a state of slavery (Oxford English Dictionary, 2008). This study aims to understand if those who use drugs or have a behavioral disorder such as gambling disorder (Clark et al., 2013; Frisone et al., 2020a, 2020b; Frisone, 2021) should be considered mainly as slaves.
Overexpressions of RHOA, CSNK1A1, DVL2, FZD8, and LRP5 genes enhance gastric cancer development in the presence of Helicobacter pylori.

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Intestinal metaplasia (IM), and Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection can be shown as risk factors in the development of gastric cancer (GC). WNT signaling pathway plays a critical role in carcinogenesis. However, the literature studies are limited on the significance of this pathway for the transition from IM to GC. PATIENTS AND METHODS We aimed to investigate the importance of the genes of WNT signaling pathways diagnostic and prognostic markers in the presence and absence of HP in conversion from IM to GC. 104 patients, (GC group n = 35, IM group n = 45, control group n = 25) were included in this case-control study. Expression of genes in WNT signalling were searched in study groups with qRT-PCR array and qRT-PCR method. Data were analysed using PCR array data analysis software. RESULTS Statistically significant overexpression of RHOA, CSNK1A1, DVL2, FZD8 and LRP5 genes was detected in the GC and IM groups compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Statistically significant overexpression of RHOA, CSNK1A1, DVL2, FZD8 and LRP5 genes was observed in patients with metastatic GC compared to patients with GC without metastasis (p < 0.05). It was found that the RHOA, CSNK1A1, DVL2, FZD8 and LRP5 genes were statistically significantly over-expressed in diffuse GC patients compared to non-diffuse GC patients (p < 0.05). Statistically significant overexpression of RHOA, CSNK1A1, DVL2, FZD8 and LRP5 genes was detected in HP positive IM patients compared to HP negative IM patients (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Overexpression of RHOA, CSNK1A1, DVL2, FZD8 and LRP5 genes in IM may suggest that these genes are important markers in the development of IM and inflammation with HP. In addition, these genes are linked to tumor burden in the GC group. Consequently, we can conclude that these genes are poor prognosis biomarkers for GC and have the potential to be used as markers for future treatment monitoring.
Efficient projection onto the intersection of a half-space and a box-like set and its generalized Jacobian

This paper focuses on efficient projection onto the intersection of a half-space and a box-like set and its generalized Jacobian. Based on the Lagrangian duality theory, we deal with the projection problem via a semismooth Newton algorithm with line search safeguard, which admits global and locally quadratic convergence, to solve a univariate semismooth equation. Numerical experiments show that our proposed algorithm outperforms favourably the existing state-of-the-art standard solvers and is able to reliably solve very large-scale projection problems. Besides, we derive an explicit expression of a generalized Jacobian of the studied projection, which is an essential component of second-order nonsmooth methods.
Pseudocapacitance Induced Uniform Plating/Stripping of Li Metal Anode in Vertical Graphene Nanowalls

Unevenly distributed dendrite growth is usually viewed as a consequence to the diffusion‐limited interface instability during electrodeposition, leading to one of the most serious obstacles hindering the application of high‐capacity lithium (Li) metal anodes. Herein, a fundamental issue of modifying Li plating behavior using a structure of 3D vertical graphene nanowalls on nickel (Ni) foam (VGN/Ni) is investigated. Such a structure exhibits a significant pseudocapacitive interfacial feature, greatly improving the Li+ ion transfer kinetic through the structure, and exhibiting uniform Li plating/stripping for stable Li metal cycling even at a high depth of discharge of 50%. Based on such a structure, high Coulombic efficiencies ≈97% and 99% can be obtained in carbonate and ether electrolyte over long‐term cycling. The symmetrical cell based on the VGN/Ni@Li composite anodes can afford a stable cycling of 2000 h with low voltage hysteresis of 30 mV. Full cell system using VGN/Ni@Li composite anode and LiFePO4 cathode is also proved, with high capacity retention of 89.4% at the 1000th cycle. The pseudocapacitance induced benefits, which have not yet been elucidated for Li metal anodes, can conduct to underlying strategy in designing stable Li metal host for high‐energy‐density batteries.
Roles of Glucose and Sucrose Intakes on the Brain Functions Measured by the Working Ability and Morris Maze

Sugars such as glucose or sucrose are considered hazardous foods because their intakes lead to obesity, further causing diabetes mellitus (DM), or cardiovascular diseases. However, glucose is needed for many brain functions such as memory and emotion among others. Glucose induces the secretion of insulin, which is needed for transportation of tryptophan from the blood to the brain. Serotonin, which is converted from tryptophan, is important for mood stability, control of emotion, and feeding is inhibited by serotonin in the hypothalamus. We discuss transportation of glucose from the blood to the glia cells. After glycolysis of glucose in the glia lactic acid is transported to cells such as glutaminergic neurons. After the release from neurons glutamic acid is taken up into glia cells and further to neurons again. Sucrose is degraded into glucose and fructose in the intestine thus intake of sucrose increases plasma levels of glucose. We show that intake of sucrose enhanced memory measured by Morris maze in rats and improved the working ability in humans. Roles of glucose and sucrose intakes are discussed together with the function of serotonin in feeding.

Information extraction that affects to this sentiment can be used by the government to improve the application of learning from home policies such as providing internet quotas which have been proven to affect positive sentiment.
Ensambles de mesofauna en el micelio extraradical de raíces de Pinus greggii con tres hongos ectomicorrízicos

Background: The extraradical mycelium (ERM) of ectomycorrhizal fungi is a network inhabited by soil mesofauna, mainly collembolans and mites, forming interactions during the fungal life-cycle, from grazing on hyphae to spore dispersal. However, it is still unknown if ERM of ectomycorrhizal fungi could influence the structure of mesofauna assemblages. Objective: To evaluate the abundance and community composition of the mesofauna inhabiting the ERM of Hebeloma mesophaeum, Laccaria laccata and Wilcoxina sp. in Pinus greggii roots. Methods: Mesofauna was collected from the root balls of P. greggii with 80 % of colonization using a washing method. Results and conclusions: An effect was observed due to ERM differences on species richness and species dominance, but not an effect on the abundance and community composition of the mesofauna. However, Wilcoxina sp. presented the lowest species richness and diversity. Fungus-feeding collembolans shaped species-rich assemblages, being isotomid-tullbergid forms the soil-dwelling taxa. Entomobryidae and Hypogastruridae were the most common families on the soil surface, not being found in Wilcoxina sp. , and only a few predatory mites of the Mesostigmata and Endeostigmata were found. The ectomycorrhizal mycelium constitutes a trophic niche of the mesofauna and it might be an evolutionary force in structuring species composition and diversity.
Effect of UV-C and Ozone on the Bioactive Compounds and Antioxidant Capacity of Minimally Processed Rocket (Eruca Sativa Mill.)

In this study, treatments with UV-C radiation (10, 20 and 30 kJ/m2) and gaseous ozone (1, 5 and 10 mg/L) were applied to minimally processed rocket (Eruca sativa) leaves to investigate their effects on the bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacityduring12 days of storage at 5 ordmC.As control, water washing was used. Ascorbic acid content, phenolic compounds, antioxidant capacity and chlorophyll a and b, total chlorophyll and total carotenoids content throughout shelf-life were studied. The results showed that UV-C and ozone treatments had no adverse effects on ascorbic acid content, phenolic compound and antioxidant capacity of minimally processed rocket leaves. Treatments with UV-C delayed the degradation of total chlorophyll content throughout shelf-life, while the treatments with O3 did not affect this parameter. In conclusion, the UV-C and ozone treatments applied maintain the bioactive compounds with antioxidant activity content of minimally processed rocket leaves during 12 days of storage at 5 ordmC.
Comparative Analysis of Naira/US Dollar Exchange Rate Volatility using GARCH Variant Modeling

This paper employed variant GARCH models to examined official, interbank and Bureau de change returns volatilities. Using monthly exchange rate of Naira/USD from January 2004 to September 2020 (2004:1-2020:9), the returns were not normally distributed and stationary at level. Ljung-Box Q statistic and Ljung-Box Q2 statistics of power transformed using power 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 for conditional heteroscedasticity for lags of 6, 12 and 20 indicated present of conditional heteroscedascity in all returns. The study found exchange rate volatility in Official, interbank and Bureau de change exchange rate returns were persistent. However, Bureau de change return was more persistent while official exchange rate return was the least persistent. Also, leverage effect exist in all the three exchange rate returns and asymmetric model were the best model for estimating exchange rate return while IGARCH was the worst model to estimate exchange rate return in Nigeria. There is need to incorporate news impact when developing exchange rate policy by monetary authority in Nigeria.
