The spectra of emission-line galaxies from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey of the Sloan Digit Sky Survey (SDSS) are used to study the mass–metallicity relation (MZR) at z ∼ 0.8. The selected sample contains about 180,000 massive star-forming galaxies with 0.6 < z < 1.05 and

. The spectra are stacked in bins of different parameters including redshift, stellar mass, star formation rate (SFR), specific star formation rate (sSFR), half-light radius, mass density, and optical color. The average MZR at z ∼ 0.83 has a downward evolution in the MZR from the local to high-redshift universe, which is consistent with previous works. At a specified stellar mass, galaxies with higher SFR/sSFR and larger half-light radius have systematically lower metallicity. This behavior is reversed for galaxies with larger mass density and optical color. Among the above physical parameters, the MZR has the most significant dependency on SFR. Our galaxy sample at 0.6 < z < 1.05 approximately follows the fundamental metallicity relation (FMR) in the local universe, although the sample inhomogeneity and incompleteness might have an effect on our MZR and FMR.
Exercise Echocardiography Predicts Future Development of Pulmonary Hypertension in a High-risk Cohort of Patients with Systemic Sclerosis
Authors: Quinn Kaitlin A. , Wappel Stephanie R. , Kuru Tunay , Steen Virginia D.
Published: November 2019

Objective.

To evaluate whether a positive exercise echocardiogram (EE) predicts future development of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in a high-risk cohort of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc).

Methods.

Patients with SSc with features associated with an increased risk for PAH were recruited into a prospective, observational cohort. All patients underwent clinical assessment and EE. A positive EE was defined as an increase of ≥ 20 mmHg in the right ventricular systolic pressure with exercise. All patients with positive EE underwent right heart catheterization (RHC).

Results.

The study included 85 patients. In the positive EE cohort, 10 of 43 patients (23%) developed resting pulmonary hypertension (PH) on RHC over a mean 4-year followup period [4 with PAH, 5 with pulmonary venous hypertension (PVH), and 1 with PH associated with interstitial lung disease]. In the persistently negative EE cohort, only 3 of 42 patients (7%) developed resting PH (1 PAH, 2 PVH; p = 0.04). Of the remaining 33 patients in the positive EE group who did not develop resting PH, 22 (67%) had a persistently positive EE over an average 5-year followup period.

Conclusion.

In this high-risk cohort of patients with SSc, a positive EE may predict the future development of resting PH. In addition, a majority of patients may have a persistently positive EE for years without progression to resting PH. Finally, a consistently negative EE may identify patients at low risk for future PH.
La parentalité positive l’est-elle autant qu’on le croit ?

Éducation positive : fabriquer de l’obéissance ou de la subjectivité ?
Authors: Coum Daniel
Published: November 2019

L’éducation positive serait la meilleure des choses, n’était le risque d’y nier ce qui, du positionnement subjectif du parent dans son rapport à l’enfant, est inévitablement empreint d’ambivalence donc animé par bien d’autres sentiments que positifs. Le désarroi actuel des parents conduit certains d’entre eux à se placer sous le joug de nouveaux dogmes éducatifs, voire relationnels. Illusoirement. Car la violence refoulée voire déniée à cette occasion ne manque pas de se manifester, tôt ou tard, d’une manière ou d’une autre. Aussi le devenir parent – et les étayages dont il relève – doit-il être pensé dans un autre registre que celui des prescriptions de comportement.

Published: November 2019

Même si les jeunes enfants savent, très tôt, initier et déployer une activité autonome constructive, ils ont besoin de l’attention des adultes de leur entourage pour encourager et soutenir leur vitalité et la force de leur élan développemental. Une attention empathique, contenante, ouverte sur le monde interne du petit enfant dans laquelle l’enfant se perçoit compétent, se sent apprécié dans ce qu’il est, et accompagné dans des situations plus difficiles. Une attention qui ne peut être « positive » que si le négatif est accueilli en chacun, enfants et adultes, et les professionnels écoutés et accompagnés.

Clinical Make-Up Using Web-Based Technology

When clinical spaces and days are at a premium, missed days due to adverse weather or instructor illness are problematic. At times, making up a day is impossible, and faculty must provide an alternate assignment, but clinically relevant assignments that are not just "busy work" are sometimes difficult to generate. Simulations (Mole & McLafferty, 2004) and computer-assisted instruction (Madorin & Iwasiw, 1999) are effective in increasing students' confidence about a clinical area and their critical thinking ability, but these assignments often lack the interaction of clinical practice. However, by using course software technology, it is possible to design interactive assignments that promote critical thinking. [more...]

OB Boot Camp: Maternity Simulators in Clinical Education

Clinical simulation models have been shown to be an effective nursing education technology (Johnson, Zerwic, & theis, 1999). This technology has undergone recent innovations in the area of birthing simulation. Maternity simulators are life-like manikins that can represent maternity clients for nursing and medical students. Simulators can vary from simple partial body models to full-body electronic simulators with fetal heartbeats and mechanical mechanisms to propel a manikin fetus through the pelvis. These simulators perform the cardinal movements of labor and birth, and the neonatal models can simulate the transition of the newborn to extra-uterine life. Some models can be attached to a computer so students can practice live-action fetal heartbeat and labor scenarios. [more...]

« Ce sont maintenant les résistances qui vont nous tuer ». Insécurités pharmaceutiques, ruptures de stock et résistances aux traitements contre le VIH en Afrique centrale
Authors: David Pierre-Marie
Published: November 2019

Les préoccupations relatives aux ruptures de stock en médicaments antirétroviraux et leurs conséquences en termes de résistances biologiques aux traitements contre le VIH sont passées relativement inaperçues jusqu'à récemment. En effet, ces problèmes, qui prennent depuis peu une place plus importante au sein de politiques de santé mondiale, ont été mis à l'arrière-plan d'un agenda international porté depuis 2009 par une vision technicienne et volontariste, affichant l'horizon de l'éradication de la maladie et d’"un monde sans sida" pour 2030. L'échec des thérapies antirétrovirales affectant les pays à ressources limitées est maintenant mieux reconnu et même parfois présenté comme la « quatrième épidémie de VIH ». Alors qu'une expertise technique est nécessaire pour appréhender les problèmes ainsi posés, une perspective anthropologique plus large permet de les concevoir comme les effets indésirables de la généralisation des traitements antirétroviraux impliquant des dimensions intimes, biologiques et sociales entremêlées. En proposant une ethnographie des échecs du traitement en République centrafricaine, cet article examine les effets biologiques, individuels, sociaux et politiques d'une « insécurité pharmaceutique », qui constitue, dans de plus en plus de contextes africains, l'envers trop peu discuté des promesses biologiques et politiques générées par la massification des traitements antirétroviraux.
Pharmacovigilance, hémovigilance, vaccinovigilance, tératovigilance… : quelles retombées imprévues pour les patients, les intervenants de santé et les systèmes de soins ?
Authors: Buclin Thierry , Foley Rose-Anna , Livio Françoise
Published: November 2019

Durant les cinq dernières décennies, nos systèmes de santé se sont dotés d’organes de pharmacovigilance chargés de surveiller la survenue d’effets indésirables de médicaments, de requérir des modifications de leur mode d’utilisation, et ainsi d’améliorer leur sécurité. Dans la foulée, la transfusion de produits sanguins, les vaccins, les appareils médicaux, etc., ont justifié la mise sur pied d’organisations similaires. Cet article revisite la construction et le fonctionnement de ces structures à travers les crises qui ont jalonné leur développement dans une perspective socio-historique. Le recueil, l’analyse et l’exploitation des événements indésirables par des professionnels dédiés produit certains des résultats escomptés en termes de sécurité. Cependant, ils nécessitent d’importants investissements et révèlent de nombreux problèmes qui engendrent une modification des représentations collectives relatives au médicament, et secondairement à la relation de soins et à la préservation de la santé. Encore insuffisamment évaluées, ces retombées collatérales transforment durablement le contexte des comportements de santé et du recours aux soins.
La perte de confiance des citoyens. Les risques médicamenteux pendant la crise de la thalidomide en Allemagne de l’Ouest, 1962
Authors: Kessel Nils
Published: November 2019

Le présent article étudie le rôle de la confiance pendant une situation de crise liée aux médicaments. Plus précisément, il s’agit de s’intéresser au rôle joué par la confiance comme produit d’une négociation entre institutions prétendant garantir la sécurité des médicaments et les usagers, dépendants - pour le moins partiellement - de ces mêmes institutions. L’article prend appui sur un échange épistolaire entre une citoyenne allemande, Mme S., et le chef du département des affaires pharmaceutiques du ministère fédéral de la Santé en 1962. S’inquiétant de la prescription par son gynécologue d’une pilule contraceptive potentiellement dangereuse, et critiquant les dysfonctionnements du système de régulation du médicament, Mme S. refuse le raisonnement qui lui est opposé. Elle exige ainsi que les acteurs du médicament se concertent pour garantir la sécurité des usages. Ce qui peut paraître comme la posture naïve d’une citoyenne s’avère être une posture politique cohérente au regard de sa marge de manœuvre.
La croissance périphérique des espaces urbains
Authors: Di Méo Guy
Published: November 2019

Depuis une vingtaine d'années, la croissance des villes françaises se caractérise par un véritable éclatement géographique de leurs limites. Tout un vocabulaire, soit ancien - nouvelles banlieues, suburbanisation-, soit récent et plus barbare - "rurbanisation", "naturbanisation"... -, s'efforce de définir un phénomène qui dépasse les frontières de notre territoire et que les chercheurs ont trop souvent réduit à l'analyse de la diffusion de l'habitat individuel dans les couronnes péri-urbaines, ou à l'observation du repeuplement des communes rurales à la périphérie des agglomérations. Certes, quelques interprétations générales, plus soucieuses de repérer de fructueuses continuités diachroniques que de spectaculaires mais illusoires ruptures, ont montré de quelle façon cette nouvelle croissance externe des villes, amorcée avec les années 1970, s'articule aux périodes précédentes de forte croissance économique et de "révolution urbaine". De fait, au cours des années 1960, le redéploiement spatial des activités, comme l'émergence de nouveaux rapports géographiques entre les bassins d'emploi et les aires résidentielles, ont incontestablement préparé les formes récentes et actuelles de la croissance périphérique.

How to Integrate Universities and Cities Through Local Spatial Developments
Authors: Luo Wenjing , Li Haijun , Zou Han
Published: November 2019

As irreplaceable knowledge infrastructures, universities have been acknowledged to play the roles of fostering knowledge workers, supporting knowledge economies, and building knowledge cities. Through spatial developments, localized interactions can be built between cities and universities. There has been a global trend to design new knowledge precincts revolving around universities to make knowledge cities. This article focuses on how the local governments in Wuhan, known as the “Forest of Campus” in China, have proposed the vision of making a “Univercity,” building knowledge cities by integrating universities and cities through local spatial developments. To interpret the concept of the knowledge precinct namely “Univercity,” an analytical framework has been set up in the dimensions of fostering knowledge workers, supporting knowledge economies and building knowledge cities. Then, the spatial strategies of making a “Univercity” have been given accordingly, including enhancing the interaction between universities, knowledge businesses, and knowledge cities.

The primary goal is to select the best learning methods for the upcoming international training programme, developed within the EU co-funded project (Erasmus+ KA2) The article presents the analysis of the state on the Slovenian education market with a focus on adult education and lifelong learning target groups. The results show that traditional training methods are still most widely used; newer learning methods (gamification, online, mobile learning, storytelling) are rarely used. The results of the interviews (preliminary study) show that entrepreneurs, which were included in the research, missed the sustainability topics in their educational path. Lastly, examples of the learning methods used by the case-study educational company are shown. The article is usable for organizations, which are preparing new online training programmes about sustainability topics.
A Proposed Frequent Itemset Discovery Algorithm Based on Item Weights and Uncertainty
Authors: Abu Zahra Hanaa Ibrahim , El-Sappagh Shaker , El Shishtawy Tarek Ahmef
Published: November 2019

Most frequent itemset mining algorithms (FIMA) discover hidden relationships from unrelated items. They find the most frequent itemsets depending only on the frequency of the item's existence in the dataset. These algorithms give all items the same importance, and neglect the differences in importance of the items. They assume the full certainty of data, but in most cases, real word data may be uncertain. As a result, the data could be incomplete and/or imprecise. These two problems are the most common challenges that face FIMA algorithms. Some new algorithms proposed some solutions to face these two issues separately. In other words, some algorithms handle item importance only, and others handle uncertainty only. Few algorithms dealt with the two issues together. In this article, the single scan for weighted itemsets over the uncertain database (SSU-Wfim) is proposed. It depends on the single scan frequent itemsets algorithm (SS_FIM), and enhances it to deal with weighted items in an uncertain database. SSU_WFIM deals with the uncertainty of data by giving each item in a transaction an additional value to indicate occurrence likelihood. It gives the items different values to define the weight of them. It uses a table called Ptable to save the items and their probability values. This table is used to generate all possible candidates itemsets. The results indicate the high performance in aspects of runtime, memory consumption and scalability of SSU-Wfim comparing with the UApriori algorithm. The proposed algorithm saves time and memory with a percentage exceeds 70% for all tested datasets.

Published: November 2019

This study examined the moderating effect of electronic word of mouth (eWOM) communications on the relationship between the perceived usefulness (PU) and perceived ease of use (PEOU) of mobile government services and the intention to use mobile government services. The Technology Acceptance Model was used as the theoretical framework and the data analysis was done with SPSS. The results have shown that there was a significant moderating impact of eWOM on both the relationship between PU and PEOU and the intention to use mobile government services. In addition, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use of mobile government service were significant in determining the intention to use mobile government services. Also, PEOU was found to be a determinant of the PU of mobile government services. The implications of these findings are discussed.
Media Selection in Knowledge Transfer

Published: November 2019

Managing knowledge transfer is a complex issue: when firms attempt to accelerate knowledge transfer at a rational cost, there is often a byproduct of knowledge spillover which harms the firms' competitive advantages. As the channel of knowledge transfer, media play a vital role for the success of knowledge transfer. However, the extant literature offers neither comprehensive framework nor a decision method to guide firms' media selection in knowledge transfer. This article develops a framework of media selection from the perspectives of performance, cost, and risk of knowledge spillover, and proposes a decision model of media selection in knowledge transfer based on analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Finally, this article applies the model to a case study to verify its effectiveness in practice. The framework is helpful to guide firms' media selection, and the decision model is valuable to facilitate firms' media selection in big knowledge transfer projects.
Trust, Perceived Benefit, and Purchase Intention in C2C E-Commerce
Authors: Zhao Shukuan , Fang Yiwen , Zhang Weiyong , Jiang Hong
Published: November 2019

It is a class research question about how trust and perceived benefit affect consumers' purchase intentions. This research examines the relationship in a very different context: consumer-to-consumer (C2C) e-commerce in China. Specifically, this research empirically assesses the differences in effect size due to the change of context. First, a theoretical model linking trust, perceived benefit, and their antecedents to purchase intention is developed upon the literature. Then the model is evaluated using empirical data collected at Taobao, the largest C2C e-commerce website in China. Partial least squares based structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) results strongly support the model and research hypotheses. A developing country context can indeed affect the strength of effect. These results contribute to the literature in that they provide new insights toward a more in-depth theoretical understanding. Meanwhile, they can also provide useful guidance for managers.
Invariant NKT Cells Functionally Link Microbiota-Induced Butyrate Production and Joint Inflammation
Authors: Lee Sangsin , Koh Jaemoon , Chang Yuna , Kim Hye Young , Chung Doo Hyun
Published: November 2019

Emerging evidence indicates that the gut microbiota contributes to the regulation of joint inflammation by modulating the function of immune cells. However, the mechanism by which the microbiota regulates joint inflammation is unclear. To address this, we investigated the effect of the gut microbiota on Ab-induced arthritis (AIA). Feeding mice a high-fiber diet attenuated AIA in a microbiota-dependent manner. Among the short-chain fatty acids produced by the microbiota, butyrate suppressed cytokine production by invariant NKT (iNKT) cells by inhibiting class I histone deacetylases. Furthermore, butyrate alleviated AIA in wild-type, but not iNKT cell–deficient Jα18 knockout (KO), mice. Adoptive transfer of butyrate-pretreated iNKT cells had no effect on AIA in Jα18 KO mice, whereas transfer of untreated iNKT cells into Jα18 KO mice restored AIA. In conclusion, our data indicate that gut microbiota–induced butyrate production attenuates AIA by inhibiting cytokine production by iNKT cells. Thus, the microbiota/butyrate/iNKT cell axis may be a therapeutic target for joint inflammation.
First records of Attagenus smirnovi Zhantiev, 1973 from Italy in South Tyrol (Coleoptera: Dermestidae)
Authors: Guariento Elia , Colla Filippo , Steinwandter Michael , Háva Jiří , Seeber Julia
Published: November 2019

The Dermestidae species Attagenus smirnovi Zhantiev, 1973 was discovered in two household in South Tyrol, making it the first official records for this species in Italy. The larvae feeds upon dried organic materials, making this species a common pest in museum collections and households in Central and Northern Europe. The spread of A. smirnovi in Italy was expected but has not yet been recorded. Further, developments of its distribution need to be monitored to prevent damaging infestations, especially to museum collections.

First record of the migrant dragonfly Pantala flavescens for mainland Italy (Insecta: Odonata)
Authors: Piretta Lorenza , Assandri Giacomo
Published: November 2019

In this contribution we report the observation of an individual of the migrant dragonfly Pantala flavescens (Fabricius, 1798) found at Montanaro (Piemonte, Italy) on 14 Aug 2019. This represents the first record of the species for mainland Italy and one of the very few available for Western and Central Europe before 2019. We discuss two hypotheses on the origin of this individual integrating available literature with very recent records retrieved from citizen science faunistic platforms.
Community structure of tenebrionid beetles in the Ulan Buh Desert (Inner Mongolia, China) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)

Published: November 2019

Tenebrionids are a conspicuous faunal component of Central Asian deserts, but little is known about their community ecology. We investigated how tenebrionid community structure varied along a vegetational gradient in the Ulan Buh Desert (Gobi Desert). Sampling was done with pitfall traps in three sites with different vegetation cover. Species abundance distributions were fitted by the geometric series model, which expresses the “niche pre-emption” hypothesis. Community structure was investigated using different measures of diversity (number of species, Margaleff richness and Shannon-Weaner index), dominance (Simpson and Berger-Parker indexes) and evenness (Pielou’s index). The observed tenebrionid species richness was similar to that known from other Gobi Desert sites. The three investigated sites have similar species-abundance patterns, but the most dominant species varied among them. This suggests that the local environment operates a filtering action on the same basic fauna, allowing different species to dominate under different conditions. Overall, the highest total abundance was observed in the true desert site, however this site had a community structure similar to that observed in the site with more vegetation. By contrast, the investigated site with intermediate conditions showed a higher diversity and evenness, and a lower dominance. Thus, intermediate conditions of plant cover favour tenebrionid diversity, whereas a dense cover or a very sparse cover increases the dominance.
A realistic reading of the parable of the Lost Coin in Q: Gaining or losing even more?
Authors: Van Eck Ernest
Published: November 2019

This article aims to present a realistic reading of the parable of the Lost Coin in Q. A realistic reading of the parable focuses on the social realia invoked by the parables, that is, the social realities and practices (cultural scripts) embedded by any given parable. As will be indicated, available documented papyri can be used to identify the possible social realia invoked by the parables, and this can help the modern reader to identify what is ‘normal’ or ‘abnormal’ in a parable being interpreted. This, in turn, can help the modern reader to come to grips with the probable intended meaning of the parable. In a realistic reading of the Lost Coin, it is argued that two things are important: the price and daily consumption of oil, and the Lost Coin being one of the gendered doublets in Q. Apart from proposing a possible meaning of the Lost Coin, it is also indicated that a realistic reading explains why the seeking of the woman is described as being ἐπιμελῶς [diligent].
Homo disruptus and the future church
Authors: Ungerer André
Published: November 2019

The Fourth Industrial Revolution is a phrase that is frequently heard in the media. This study explores the major changes that this revolution has installed for us. The Fourth Industrial Revolution is an umbrella term for many aspects, and the study takes note of the concepts like the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, artificial general intelligence, artificial superintelligence, transhumanism and Homo digitalis. The spin-off effect of this revolution may cause possible disruptive effects on Homo sapiens by creating greater numbers of Homo disruptus. The term Homo disruptus is not a frequently used term, although it can be used in conjunction with the disruption that will be part of our future. Disruption may occur because of emerging technology, robotics, unemployment, digital dictatorships and exploitation, the side effects of Homo digitalis and transhumanism. The church will be part and parcel of this world, although the church does not have to be a victim and can play a significant role in anchoring Homo disruptus with the timeless message of the gospel and finding innovative ways to deal with their disruptive world.
Improved Atmospheric Corrosion Testing for Aluminum Alloys, Part II: Developing Improved Testing Protocol
Authors: Parker Mary E. , Kelly Robert G.
Published: November 2019

A modified version of ASTM G85-A2 was developed in this work with the intention of targeting a relative humidity (RH) of 75% during the dwell period. The outcome was two different RH profiles, one that averaged 74% RH during the dwell period and another that averaged 61.5% RH during the dwell period. Both tests produced moderate exfoliation in AA2060-T3 after just 12 days of exposure. Other high-strength aluminum alloys (AA7075, AA2024) were exposed to the modified RH profiles, and both tests could correctly differentiate exfoliation resistance for these alloys. An average RH between 74% and 61.5% during the dwell period was found to produce consistent exfoliation ratings after a short exposure time. Electrochemical measurements made during salt spray testing were used to propose electrochemical mechanisms that occur during wetting and drying in atmospheric corrosion testing.
Duplex Stainless Steels: The Versatile Alloys
Authors: Francis Roger
Published: November 2019

Duplex stainless steels were first manufactured early in the 20th century, but it was the invention of argon oxygen decarburization melting and the addition of nitrogen that made the alloys stronger, more weldable, and more corrosion resistant. Today, there is a family of duplex stainless steels covering a range of compositions and properties, but they all share high strength and good corrosion resistance, especially to stress corrosion cracking, compared with similar austenitic stainless steels. This paper briefly reviews the range of modern duplex stainless steels and why they are widely used in many industries. They are the workhorse corrosion-resistant alloy in the oil and gas industry. In this paper, their use in three industries common in Australia and New Zealand is reviewed: oil and gas, mineral processing, and desalination. The corrosion resistance in the relevant fluids is reviewed and some case histories highlight both successes and potential problems with duplex alloys in these industries.
