Psychosocial difficulties in people with epilepsy: A systematic review of literature from 2005 until 2010

The aims of this paper are to identify factors that influence the psychosocial difficulties (PSDs) that persons with epilepsy experience in their everyday life, to describe their onset and the way they evolve over time, and to analyze the determinants of changes over time and other related variables. Electronic databases were searched for studies published in English between January 2005 and May 2010, and information from thirteen studies was extracted. The most frequent PSDs found in people with epilepsy were depressive symptoms, memory functions, quality of life, anxiety, stigma, locus of control, cognitive functions in general, and emotional functions in general. It can be stated that patients' life areas are affected by cognitive, emotional, and psychological problems. However, the majority of studies focus on isolated PSDs or on the effects of a specific determinant in the course of epilepsy, leaving some gaps that could encourage further research.
Eleutherococcus senticosus dry extract does not alter the cardiorespiratory fitness of physically active Brazilian young men

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ES dry extract on cardiorespiratory power and capacity of physically active Brazilian young men. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted with 15 Brazilian young men, aged 18–30 years. The placebo (PG) and supplemented group (SG) took placebo or 800 mg of ES dry extract/day, for 30 days. Food intake and anthropometric evaluation and the cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) were performed at baseline and after 30 days of supplementation. There was no difference in oxygen uptake (VO 2 ), carbon dioxide production (VCO 2 ), respiratory exchange ratio (RER), heart rate (HR), test time (TT), load (L), metabolic equivalents (METs) and subjective perception of effort (SEP) when reaching VO 2máx , anaerobic threshold (AT) and respiratory compensation point (RCP) between PG and SG ( P ≥ 0.05). Also, when comparing deltas of VO 2 , VCO 2 , HR and TT in VO 2máx , AT and RCP, no difference was found between PG and SG ( P ≥ 0.05). The supplementation of 800 mg ES dry extract for 30 days did not influence cardiorespiratory fitness of physically active Brazilian young men. Le but de cette étude était d’évaluer l’effet de l’extrait sec d’ES sur la puissance et l’aptitude aérobie de jeunes hommes brésiliens physiquement actifs. Un essai randomisé, en double aveugle contrôlé contre placebo a été réalisé sur 15 jeunes hommes brésiliens, âgés de 18 à 30 ans. Le groupe placebo (GP) et le groupe supplémenté (GS) ont reçu un placebo ou 800 mg d’extrait sec d’ES/jour, pendant 30 jours. Les apports alimentaires et l’évaluation anthropométrique ainsi que le test d’effort ont été réalisés au départ et après 30 jours de supplémentation. Il n’y avait aucune différence dans la consommation d’oxygène (VO 2 ), la production de dioxyde de carbone (VCO 2 ), le quotient respiratoire (QR), la fréquence cardiaque (HR), la durée du test (TT), la charge (L), les équivalents métaboliques (METs) et la perception subjective de l’effort (SEP) lors de l’atteinte de VO 2max , du premier (SV1) et du second seuil ventilatoire (SV2) entre PG et SG ( p ≥ 0,05). De même, en comparant les deltas de VO 2 , VCO 2 , TC et TT à la VO 2max , SV1 et SV2, aucune différence n’a été trouvée entre PG et SG ( p ≥ 0,05). La supplémentation de 800 mg d’extrait sec de SE pendant 30 jours n’a donc pas influencé l’aptitude cardiorespiratoire de jeunes hommes brésiliens physiquement actifs.

FCJ-219 The Sensed Smog: Smart Ubiquitous Cities and the Sensorial Body

The article analyses the idea of the media city both from the perspective of sensors and monitoring of air pollution and as a more conceptual thread that relates to air pollution itself. Smart cities are layered urban arrangements that have carried forward their earlier technological legacy in terms of infrastructure and often also in terms of the residual air pollution, like photochemical smog. This sort of an understanding feeds an alternative way of understanding technological cities. The issue of the sensorial becomes a central focus of the article ranging from the experienced air pollution to its tracking and monitoring in remote sensing solutions. These two threads, sensors and the sensed city, lead to a conceptual argument that suggests to look at the technologies of smart city as an entanglement of the materiality of the pollution as the data that keeps also the media ecologies of big data circulating. Besides issues of political economy and governance, it also points to questions where is political citizenship located.
A framework for testing and comparing binaural models

Auditory research has a rich history of combining experimental evidence with computational simulations of auditory processing in order to deepen our theoretical understanding of how sound is processed in the ears and in the brain. Despite significant progress in the amount of detail and breadth covered by auditory models, for many components of the auditory pathway there are still different model approaches that are often not equivalent but rather in conflict with each other. Similarly, some experimental studies yield conflicting results which has led to controversies. This can be best resolved by a systematic comparison of multiple experimental data sets and model approaches. Binaural processing is a prominent example of how the development of quantitative theories can advance our understanding of the phenomena, but there remain several unresolved questions for which competing model approaches exist. This article discusses a number of current unresolved or disputed issues in binaural modelling, as well as some of the significant challenges in comparing binaural models with each other and with the experimental data. We introduce an auditory model framework, which we believe can become a useful infrastructure for resolving some of the current controversies. It operates models over the same paradigms that are used experimentally. The core of the proposed framework is an interface that connects three components irrespective of their underlying programming language: The experiment software, an auditory pathway model, and task-dependent decision stages called artificial observers that provide the same output format as the test subject.
Thermoeye an innovative system for pigs' fever early detection

The global pork market is worth over €100B. The pigs’ breeders use preventive drugs to reduce risk of illnesses spreading and to increase their profits by 10%. Only in Poland farmers use yearly over 580 tons of pure antibiotics, which we later consume in meat or which pollute the environment causing antimicrobial resistance. Research shows that 80% of drugs are applied to animals  therefore the probability that a given bacteria is immune to human drugs is very high. Officially more than 46% pig's farms used the preventive medicines (unofficial data shows that the number is twice higher).  Additionally there is a lack of qualified veterinarians on the market who could monitor the farms. Until know there were no complex solution which address these challenges.
ThermoEye is game changing innovation. After two years of experiments our engineers have designed a distributed, contactless IoT system for temperature monitoring based on cheap bolometric sensors (currently TRL7 with real tests). ThermoEye detects fever at early stage and helps farmers to protect herds in alternative, ecological friendly way without preventive antibiotics. The farmers' investment in ThermoEye returns in 18 months. The end customers receive antibiotic-free pork, and the vets obtains new tools for herd monitoring. Moreover we provide the statistical analysis for researchers. ThermoEye is a WIN-WIN-WIN solution for stakeholders providing income of €1/pig/month for our company. There are above 760M over the world. Smart Soft Solutions team has started in Poland, but we would like to be a global company.  We won several competitions like MIT EF, Young in Lodz, EIT Food and we have seed investors on board who evaluated our product and business model. We presented our solution in Dubai, Bucharest, Hannover and other fairs to create book of orders. First sales was done last month. 
Recently EU Parliament banned preventive antibiotics usage since 2022 and it will strongly supports our company mission.

Multifunctional eco-friendly painting systems

The project aims to develop new techniques of powder painting with a low environmental impact, by using nanoadditives able to increase, in metallic components, protection from corrosion, while improving at the same time the thermal and electrical conductivity properties. The project will study new formulations for powders based on polyurethane and polyester, with additives of functional nano-particles, using innovative mixing techniques aimed at the total and homogeneous distribution of particles in the polymeric matrix. The optimized solutions will then be applied and tested on different metallic components to verify the functionality of the new coatings and thus, increase the potential value of the final products. Thanks to its competences in the various aspects of the project, the Consortium guarantees a high degree of success of the objectives, allowing the subsequent transfer of results throughout the entire cross-border area via its technological and academic networks.

Innovative care services, enhanced with technology, to deliver quick responses for individuals with advanced heart failure and complex care needs through integrated care

Heart failure (HF) is the leading cause of hospitalisation in people over the age of 65 and carries a high cost to healthcare systems. It also exerts a significant economic toll on patients, their families and society in general; more the 15 million people are living with HF in Europe. Despite the considerable burden to human life and healthcare costs there has been scarce innovation in treatments in the past several decades: HF occurs mainly in the older population that may mistake symptoms as being the natural result of ageing and therefore not recognized until the condition has reached a severe stage. Poor management of HF increases the risk and frequency of acute episodes resulting in hospitalizations, poor quality of life and high burden on healthcare systems. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has evidenced that fearing to be infected, cardiovascular patients delay care.
A state-of-the-art search indicated that that integrated care is crucial for improving the health care services, wellbeing and engagement through shared decision-making, education and support to self-management. Existing solutions are local and there is no common effective solution available in the market. Public procurers cannot go to open tender to deploy effective solutions for advanced heart failure. The TIQUE Consortium recognised Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) as the only way to stimulate the market to find a solution to the common problem. TIQUE will bring to the market new integrated care solutions implementing a predictive, preventive, personalized and participatory model of health care services for patients with heart failure. 
TIQUE will stimulate European industry to become a global leader in this innovative field. Use of PCP is of particular interest to the consortium members some of them are familiar with PCP and PPI and in using them strategically while others are new adopters. The consortium will proactively share PCP knowledge with the PiPPI and EURIPHI communities of practice.
Testing the role of thermo-chemical piles in the generation and continuation of plate tectonics

The mechanics of plate tectonics (the movement of the Earth's surface) is a fundamental scientific question in understanding the recycling of mantle volatiles in processes that affect habitability. The emergence of plate tectonics on Earth set the planet apart from others in our solar system allowing for the propagation of life, yet the fundamentals of how it all began remain unresolved. Present-day geophysical imaging of the deep mantle show anomalous chemical piles thought to originate from the beginnings of Earth. Recently, consensus has been reached that the chemical piles can impact, and be impacted by, plate tectonic processes. However, their interaction with mantle convection in a pre-plate tectonic early Earth is not well known. In this study, state of the art numerical experiments will be designed and implemented to offer the first investigation into what role deep chemical heterogeneities play in the initial breaking of the lithosphere (to initiate a form of plate tectonics). Furthermore, a numerical analysis into the evolution of temperature and mantle dynamics in the early Earth will be conducted to assess a range of geodynamic scenarios previously hypothesized.  This fellowship is timely as it complements a number of recent developments in early Earth tectonics, numerical modelling, and in knowledge of thermo-chemical pile behaviour. 

Returning to the EU, the applicant will expand his ability to design, program, and develop  large-scale numerical models using high performance computing gained from doctoral and post-doctoral experiences in Canada. This project allows for the applicant to reintegrate into EU academia, and contribute his acquired research skills. The expertise of the contributors and the design of the research will provide the applicant with new knowledge and experience in early Earth geophysics and geochemistry. As a result, the fellowship will augment the applicant's skill set ready for the next step of an independent research career.
[Analysis of coronary rotational atherectomy related complications].

To analysis the complications of coronary rotational atherectomy and evaluate the safety of this procedure.A total of 250 rotational atherectomy cases from April 1994 to February 2012 were screened retrospectively and 22 cases patients (8.8%) with rotational atherectomy-related complications were included in this analysis.Among these 22 patients, all lesions were either type B2 or C calcified lesions as evidenced by coronary angiography. After the rotation procedure, there were seven cases (2.8%) with slow reflow and two (0.8%) cases with no reflow. Seven cases (2.8%) developed severe coronary spasm and two cases (0.8%) had sinus bradycardia. Coronary dissection occurred in two cases (0.8%), while one case (0.4%) had coronary perforation and cardiac tamponade. Burr entrapment happened in one case (0.4%). There was no malignant arrhythmia, acute myocardial infarction, emergent coronary artery bypass graft or device related death during and post procedure. Comparison with baseline data, the concentration of CK-MB elevated significantly after the rotational atherectomy [(31.2 ± 4.8) mmol/L vs. (11.4 ± 6.5) mmol/L, P < 0.05].Coronary rotational atherectomy is safe and procedure-related complications are rare.

Printing personalised medicines on demand

Methods of pharmaceutical manufacturing are likely to change dramatically over the coming years. Driven by the knowledge and technology that is already available in other sectors, the processing of drugs into dosage units can be transformed into a “pharmacy-on-demand” process that allows individual dosing, based on criteria relevant for the effective use of the drug in an individual patient. One approach to achieve “pharmacy-on-demand” is the use of inkjet printing technology to deliver an exact dose of drugs on porous substrates. This proof-of-concept project is based on knowledge we acquired during my ERC AdG project on processes of printing on paper using inkjet printing. We will demonstrate the viability of ""printing"" highly accurate amounts of a solution containing levothyroxine, prescribed for hypothyroidism, onto a porous tablet. Modelling tools will be combined with cutting-edge characterization technologies to push the understanding of printed drug-containing inklike solutions in porous dosage unit matrices. This project will transfer pharmaceutical formulation and product design of individual dosage forms with the use of inkjet printing technique to the pharmaceutical community. They can work on clinical approval tests of the developed oral dosage forms and move these products toward clinical use. The patients will benefit directly from development of this production technique, because a much more effective and targeted medication can be provided. The next step will be the development of the inkjet printing technique for other personalized medicines such as pain killers for children, hormones, biomacromolecules, psychoactive and anticancer drugs. Individually-dosed medicines will allow for substantial decrease of drug waste and thus overall reduction of medical expenses.
Environmental assessment of Peruvian anchoveta food products: is less refined better?

Life cycle assessments (LCAs) of various anchovy (anchoveta) direct human consumption products processed in Peru were carried out, to evaluate their relative environmental performance as alternative products to enhance nutrition of communities with low access to fish products in the country. LCA was carried out for fresh, frozen, canned, salted and cured anchoveta products, both at plant gate and featuring local and national distribution over non-refrigerated, chilled and fully refrigerated distribution chain. The functional unit used was 1 kg of fish in the final product. Results demonstrate that, in environmental terms, more-refined products (cured and canned anchoveta products) represent a much higher burden than less- refined products (fresh, frozen and salted). Although this is a likely result, the magnitude of this difference (4 to 27 times when expressed as an environmental single score) is higher than expected and had not been quantified before for salted and cured products, as far as we know. This difference is mainly due to differences in energy consumption between types of products. Furthermore, cured and salted products feature larger biotic resource use, when calculated based on the whole fish equivalent, due to higher processing losses/discards. The relevance of taking into account the different transportation and storage needs is highlighted. For those products requiring refrigerated transportation and storage, over a national distribution chain, those activities increase the overall environmental impacts of the products by 55 % (fresh chilled) to 67 % (frozen). However, such an increase does not worsen the environmental performance of fresh and frozen products in comparison to the energy-intensive canned and cured products. It is concluded that a more sustainability-oriented analysis, including the social and economic pillars of sustainability, is required towards decision-making involving promotion of either product for addressing nutritional deficiencies in Peru.
The design and utilization of a high-temperature helium loop and other facilities for the study of advanced gas-cooled reactors in the Czech Republic

Abstract This paper focuses on the research infrastructure of advanced gas cooled reactors in the Czech Republic, particularly on the high-temperature helium loop HTHL, which is a unique facility of its kind. HTHL is intended mainly for testing structural materials. It also can be used to research technologies relating to helium coolant. The maximum temperature and pressure that can be used within the specimen testing space are 900 °C and 7 MPa, respectively, and the maximum gas flow rate in the main loop is 38 kg/hr. Originally, the equipment was envisaged as a device for corrosion tests of materials in the reactor LVR-15 but, according to current plans, a different equipment will be built for this purpose within the frame of the SUSEN project. At the same time, an additional helium loop (S-Allegro) will be built to test selected components of advanced gas-cooled reactors.
Reconciling Renewable Energy Production and Nature in the Alps

The growing demand for renewable energy (RE) will increase the pressure on the Alpine environment. It will strongly impact land use patterns, ecological connectivity and biodiversity. Both the demand for renewable energy and the need for the conservation of biodiversity, soil, and connectivity transcend national borders. A transnational dialogue to address multiple environmental objectives, interdependences and trade-offs between various ecosystem services, and conflicting priorities, is urgently needed. The projects' core objective is to develop tools and an integrated strategy for renewable energy production, sustainable land use systems as well as the conservation of biodiversity and soil across the Alpine region, so as to support the implementation of relevant EU Directives. It will valorise Alpine biodiversity, land use patterns and related ecosystem services, and model the carrying capacity of the Alpine ecosystems with respect to all aspects of RE production and consumption.
