Using an improved interval technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution to assess river ecosystem health
Authors: Xu Wei , Dong Zengchuan , Ren Li , Ren Jie , Guan Xike , Zhong Dunyu
Published: June 2019

A river ecosystem health (REH) assessment system, based on indicators for morphological form, hydrology features, aquatic life, and habitat provision was established to characterize REH. The standard interval Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution method (TOPSIS) does not fully consider dynamic changes in REH, so interval numbers and the mean were introduced into an improved version of TOPSIS to achieve a more objective analysis. The improved interval TOPSIS method was tested in the Zhangweinan River and a river ecosystem health integrated index (REHI) was calculated. The REHI decreased from 0.376 to 0.346 over the past 25 years and the REH ranged from general to poor for 1991 to 1995 and from poor to very poor for 1996 to 2000, 2001 to 2005, 2006 to 2010, and 2011 to 2015. The ecosystem health is poor because of dams and reservoirs in the upper reaches that prevent water flowing to the lower reaches, over-abstraction of water, and severe pollution. This method gives objective and accurate assessments of REH and can be used to support decision-making and evaluation in a range of fields.

Published: June 2019

Operacija katarakte najizvođenija je operacija u medicini. Šećerna bolest, kao jedno od najčešćih kroničnih oboljenja, povezana je s češćim i ranijim nastankom katarakte u odnosu na zdravu populaciju. Budući da je riječ o mikroangiopatskoj bolesti, u većini slučajeva imamo prisutan određeni stupanj oštećenja hematookularne barijere radi čega su pacijenti skloniji postoperativom padu vidne oštrine. Uzroci pada vidne oštrine postoperativno kod pacijenta sa šećernom bolesti nakon nekomplicirane operacije katarakte odnose se na nastanak postoperativnog cistoidnog makularnog edema ili na progresiju postojećeg dijabetičkog edema makule. Pravilnim postavljanjem dijagnoze te ordiniranjem pravilne i pravodobne terapije, navedene postoperativne komplikacije mogu se uspješno liječiti.
Mobile App Integration Into Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Persons With Borderline Personality Disorder: Qualitative and Quantitative Study (Preprint)
Authors: Austin Stephen F , Jansen Jens Einar , Petersen Charlotte Juul , Jensen Rasmus , Simonsen Erik
Published: June 2019

BACKGROUND

The advancement of and access to technology such as smartphones has implications for psychotherapeutic health care and how interventions for a range of mental health disorders are provided.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this study was to describe the experiences of participants while using a mobile phone app that was designed to enhance and support dialectical behavior therapy for personality disorders.

METHODS

A combination of in-depth interviews and questionnaires were used to capture the experiences of participants who used the app while undergoing dialectical behavior therapy treatment. A mixed methods approach was used; qualitative data from the interviews were analyzed using thematic analysis and were combined with quantitative data from the questionnaires.

RESULTS

Participants (N=24) who were receiving dialectical behavior therapy used the trial app. Participants (n=20) completed an evaluation questionnaire and a subset of this group (n=8) participated in semistructured interviews. Major themes that were identified from the interviews were (1) an overall positive experience of using the app—participants perceived that the app facilitated access and implementation of dialectical behavior therapy strategies (to regulate mood and behavior in challenging situations)—and (2) that the app provided a common source of information for patient and therapist interactions—app-based interactions were perceived to facilitate therapeutic alliance. Qualitative themes from the interviews were largely congruent with the quantitative responses from the questionnaires.

CONCLUSIONS

Participants welcomed the integration of technology as a supplement to clinical treatment. The app was perceived to facilitate and support many of the therapeutic techniques associated with dialectical behavior therapy treatment. The incorporation of technology into psychotherapeutic interventions may facilitate the transfer of knowledge and strategies that are learned in therapy to use in real-world settings thereby promoting recovery from mental health problems.

Published: June 2019

Background and objectives

Poor disease recognition may jeopardize the safety of CKD care. We examined safety events and outcomes in patients with CKD piloting a medical-alert accessory intended to improve disease recognition and an observational subcohort from the same population.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

We recruited 350 patients with stage 2–5 predialysis CKD. The first (pilot) 108 participants were given a medical-alert accessory (bracelet or necklace) indicating the diagnosis of CKD and displaying a website with safe CKD practices. The subsequent (observation) subcohort (n=242) received usual care. All participants underwent annual visits with ascertainment of patient-reported events (class 1) and actionable safety findings (class 2). Secondary outcomes included 50% GFR reduction, ESKD, and death. Cox proportional hazards assessed the association of the medical-alert accessory with outcomes.

Results

Median follow-up of pilot and observation subcohorts were 52 (interquartile range, 44–63) and 37 (interquartile range, 27–47) months, respectively. The frequency of class 1 and class 2 safety events reported at annual visits was not different in the pilot versus observation group, with 108.7 and 100.6 events per 100 patient-visits (P=0.13), and 38.3 events and 41.2 events per 100 patient visits (P=0.23), respectively. The medical-alert accessory was associated with lower crude and adjusted rate of ESKD versus the observation group (hazard ratio, 0.42; 95% confidence interval, 0.20 to 0.89; and hazard ratio, 0.38; 95% confidence interval, 0.16 to 0.94, respectively). The association of the medical-alert accessory with the composite endpoint of ESKD or 50% reduction GFR was variable over time but appeared to have an early benefit (up to 23 months) with its use. There was no significant difference in incidence of hospitalization, death, or a composite of all outcomes between medical-alert accessory users and the observational group.

Conclusions

The medical-alert accessory was not associated with incidence of safety events but was associated with a lower rate of ESKD relative to usual care.
Out-Side-Text Knowledge: A Critical Discussion of Its Importance in the Analysis and Comprehension of Political Discourse
Authors: Khalifa Taher Ben
Published: June 2019

The relation between knowledge and discourse is a problematic one. While speaking, we may activate one part of our knowledge and leave anther one silent to serve the coherence of what we seek to convey. Having this in mind, this paper seeks to discuss the importance of out-side-text knowledge in the analysis and comprehension of political discourse. To study this issue, concern is devoted to two axes of discussion. First, focus is given to the analysis and discussion of some key concepts to form a workable frame for the study. It also seeks to high-light the boundaries between interpretation and over-interpretation. Second, focus shifts to the analysis of some examples to put into practice the tools of the established approach. Also, the extent to which the knowledge we activated served to produce worthwhile interpretations is questioned. The selected examples are taken from presidential speeches delivered by Bush, Obama, and Trump. The method we used consists of two phases: one simple and the other complex. In phase one, the meaning the speaker sought to convey is decoded based on the types of knowledge he activated. In phase two, we activated the knowledge we have about the context of each speech to communicate the un-said. While doing this, we used the logic of critique to avoid over-interpreting the examples. The results showed that our activation of the required knowledge served to demystify what the speakers hide and to work out deception by highlighting the gap between discursive reality and social reality. It is also proved that the issue of boundaries between interpretation and over-interpretation remains a matter of critique. Though bringing valuable contributions to the critical study of language in use, the paper left the doors open for further research on how to use out-side-text knowledge to communicate the un-said.
Las fronteras de la otredad: La traducción española de la Encyclopédie méthodique y la construcción de la idea de América (1792)
Authors: Soriano Muñoz Nuria
Published: June 2019

Este artículo analiza la representación de América elaborada por los traductores Juan de Arribas y Julián de Velasco. Situar la geografía de la Encyclopédie Méthodique (1792) en estrecho diálogo con otros impresos de la época ofrece nuevas perspectivas de análisis para comprender la construcción de la idea de América y ampliar considerablemente la resonancia y circulación de las ideas que sobre el “Nuevo Mundo” impregnan la esfera pública española. Precisamente en un contexto cambiante en el que la sociedad americana se había tornado mucho más compleja, este discurso oficial –sustentado en diversos tópicos y estereotipos– perfilaba una concepción de la otredad americana radicalmente distanciada de Europa. A través del análisis de la obra, que dota de significado a las lógicas coloniales, pretendo analizar una de las vías de construcción de la identidad americana, entendida como proceso de invención muy heterogéneo en sus formas, caminos y materialidades.

Is an Appeal to Popularity a Fallacy of Popularity?
Authors: Dedrick Don
Published: June 2019

It is common to view appeals to popularity as fallacious. We argue this is a mistake and that Condorcet’s jury theorem can be used to justify at least some appeals to popularity as legitimate inferences. More importantly, the conditions for the application of Condorcet’s theorem (binary claim, competent judge, epistemic independence) can be used as critical tools when evaluating appeals to popularity. The application of these three concepts to appeals to popularity provide a more fine-grained critical strategy for argument evaluation and, also, allow us to see the real problems that often arise with such appeals more clearly.

Published: June 2019

Neste trabalho são discutidas as relações de trocas interindividuais identificadas na interação com adolescentes do ensino fundamental de uma Escola Estadual de Porto Alegre/RS em uma oficina de educação em saúde realizada no período de maio a julho de 2008. As informações coletadas por meio de protocolos de observação foram analisadas com base nas categorias teóricas e teorias inspiradoras trabalhadas no II Curso de Formação Continuada para Educadores de Crianças e Jovens em Situação de Vulnerabilidade Social do Programa Conviver para Aprender, promovido pelo Laboratório de Estudos em Educação à Distância do Colégio de Aplicação (Le@d.CAp) da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), composto de atividades práticas e teóricas presenciais e à distância, do qual a oficina constituiu atividade prática. Através de um conjunto de atividades que enfatizaram a educação em saúde, identificaram-se as categorias teóricas: trocas interindividuais equilibradas devido à cooperação intelectual, trocas interindividuais desequilibradas devido ao egocentrismo intelectual, trocas interindividuais desequilibradas devido ao conformismo intelectual e trocas interindividuais desequilibradas devido à coação intelectual, ratificando a aplicabilidade dessa proposta teórico-metodológica no processo ensino-aprendizagem.

GÊNEROS DISCURSIVOS EM SALA DE AULA: UMA ALTERNATIVA PARA MELHORAR A LEITURA E A ESCRITA NA EJA - ENSINO MÉDIO
Authors: Arruda Soeli Aparecida Rossi de
Published: June 2019

RESUMO: Na esfera escolar, quando se pensa no ensino de leitura e escrita, especialmente na Educação de Jovens e Adultos, os professores de Língua Portuguesa, ainda, se deparam com a falta de materiais que dêem sustentação teórica para sua prática de ensino da língua materna, na perspectiva dos gêneros discursivos que visem às diferentes práticas sociais. Em virtude de o trabalho com a noção de gênero discursivo ser recente e estar se expandindo, verifica-se a necessidade de pesquisas voltadas a refletir sobre a prática pedagógica na EJA – E. M. Assim, objetivamos discutir se o trabalho desenvolvido na prática de sala de aula condiz com a proposta dos PCNEM e OCEM e identificar as dificuldades mais comuns para se trabalhar a leitura e a escrita na EJA. Nesse sentido, buscamos trazer algumas contribuições teóricas na perspectiva de Bakhtin (1929; 1952-1953) Schneuwly e Dolz (2004); Rojo (2000; 2003) Brait (2005, 2006), Petroni (2008), Vygotsky (1935), dentre outros.

Recent studies implicate a strong association between elevated plasma branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and insulin resistance (IR). However, a causal relationship and whether interrupted BCAA homeostasis can serve as a therapeutic target for diabetes remain to be established experimentally. In this study, unbiased integrative pathway analyses identified a unique genetic link between obesity-associated IR and BCAA catabolic gene expression at the pathway level in human and mouse populations. In genetically obese (ob/ob) mice, rate-limiting branched-chain α-keto acid (BCKA) dehydrogenase deficiency (i.e., BCAA and BCKA accumulation), a metabolic feature, accompanied the systemic suppression of BCAA catabolic genes. Restoring BCAA catabolic flux with a pharmacological inhibitor of BCKA dehydrogenase kinase (BCKDK) ( a suppressor of BCKA dehydrogenase) reduced the abundance of BCAA and BCKA and markedly attenuated IR in ob/ob mice. Similar outcomes were achieved by reducing protein (and thus BCAA) intake, whereas increasing BCAA intake did the opposite; this corroborates the pathogenic roles of BCAAs and BCKAs in IR in ob/ob mice. Like BCAAs, BCKAs also suppressed insulin signaling via activation of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1. Finally, the small-molecule BCKDK inhibitor significantly attenuated IR in high-fat diet–induced obese mice. Collectively, these data demonstrate a pivotal causal role of a BCAA catabolic defect and elevated abundance of BCAAs and BCKAs in obesity-associated IR and provide proof-of-concept evidence for the therapeutic validity of manipulating BCAA metabolism for treating diabetes.

We identified autoantibodies (AAb) reacting with a variant IA-2 molecule (IA-2var) that has three amino acid substitutions (Cys27, Gly608, and Pro671) within the full-length molecule. We examined IA-2var AAb in first-degree relatives of type 1 diabetes (T1D) probands from the TrialNet Pathway to Prevention Study. The presence of IA-2var–specific AAb in relatives was associated with accelerated progression to T1D in those positive for AAb to GAD65 and/or insulin but negative in the standard test for IA-2 AAb. Furthermore, relatives with single islet AAb (by traditional assays) and carrying both IA-2var AAb and the high-risk HLA-DRB1*04-DQB1*03:02 haplotype progress rapidly to onset of T1D. Molecular modeling of IA-2var predicts that the genomic variation that alters the three amino acids induces changes in the three-dimensional structure of the molecule, which may lead to epitope unmasking in the IA-2 extracellular domain. Our observations suggest that the presence of AAb to IA-2var would identify high-risk subjects who would benefit from participation in prevention trials who have one islet antibody by traditional testing and otherwise would be misclassified as “low risk” relatives.

OBJECTIVE

In the Treatment Options for Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY) study, metformin plus rosiglitazone (M + R) maintained glycemic control better than metformin alone (M) or metformin plus lifestyle (M + L) in youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D). We hypothesized that changes in visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) would explain the differential treatment effects on glycemia.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

In 626 youth ages 11–17 years with T2D duration <2 years, VAT and SAT were estimated by DXA at baseline and at 6 and 24 months. Changes from baseline were analyzed in linear mixed models.

RESULTS

Baseline mean age was 13.9 years, 66.4% were female, 72.2% were Hispanic/non-Hispanic black, and 20.3% were non-Hispanic white (NHW). Mean BMI was 33.7 kg/m2. VAT increased more in M + R (13.1%) than M + L (3.9%, P = 0.0006) or M (6.5%, P = 0.0146). SAT also increased more in M + R (13.3%) than in M + L (5.4%, P < 0.0001) or M (6.4%, P = 0.0005), indicating no significant fat redistribution in M + R. In NHWs, VAT increased more in M + R than M (P = 0.0192) and M + L (P = 0.0482) but did not explain the race-ethnicity differences in treatment effects on glycemic control among treatment groups. VAT and SAT increases correlated with higher HbA1c, lower insulin sensitivity, and lower oral disposition index (all P < 0.05), but associations did not differ by treatment group.

CONCLUSIONS

In contrast to the existing reports in adults with T2D, in TODAY, M + R resulted in the most VAT accumulation compared with M + L or M. Differential effects on depot-specific indirect measures of adiposity are unrelated to treatment effects in sustaining glycemic control. Additional studies are needed to understand the clinical markers of metabolic risk profile in youth with T2D on rosiglitazone.

The aim of the current study is to determine on awareness of social rights and privileges for women
among the Female Understudy Educators. The Indian Constitution has sanctioned the State to
implement measures in favor of women for nullifying the collective socio-economic, educational and
political shortcomings faced by them. Anti-social activities against women: dowry, sexual
harassment and other deaths are recorded each day in Indian newspapers, according to the national
crimes statistics bureau. Who will become the instruments for justice? It is none but the teachers, the
women teachers. To instill proper values and to bring awareness to the younger generation, the
teachers must be sensitized at first. The women who aspire for teaching profession must get proper
knowledge, understanding and awareness regarding rights and privileges of Indian women. So, the
investigator initiated to the present study on awareness of Female Understudy Educators regarding
rights and privileges for women. The sample for study is selected from Female Understudy
Educators in Chennai city Teacher Training Educational Institutions. The sample counted in Female
Understudy Educators selected randomly from B.Ed Integrated and B.Ed Normal courses. From the
present study the investigators could infer that, the Female Understudy Educators need more
awareness related to personal, familial and social life. Even though there was moderate and high
level of awareness for 92 per cent of the sample, eight per cent of the sample had low level of
awareness. If the present trainees or the future teachers get awareness on social issues, they can
impart this awareness to all the female students. It is essential that every citizen of India, especially
every woman must have awareness about the constitutional and legal rights.

Published: June 2019

Unemployment is one of the problems that can occur in every region, not even developed countries.
This condition can be caused by the incompatibility between work and education and its ability. The
analysis used in this study is OLS (Ordinary Least Square) method simple linear regression analysis
in 2001-2017. The results of the analysis show that the level of education has a significant and
negative influence on the unemployment rate. This shows that the population of secondary school
graduates is able to reduce the unemployment rate in Indonesia in 2001 - 2017

Providing the best quality of education service must correlate to students’ need in facing future
challenges. This study aims to identify needs in integrating local wisdom to international
curriculum and to define the effect of using International Primary Curriculum module, by
introducing local wisdom, to develop students’ problem solving skill. Research and Development
method with ADDIE model is applied to produce module that answers the need. The participants
include Grade 6 students of Primary Program Focus Independent School, Surakarta, Indonesia.
The analysis stage provides data on learners’ initial performance, school facilities and needs. The
prototype produced at the design stage, with its product validation carried out by experts on the
instructional media, the material for content eligibility, aspects of presentation feasibility and
language, and experts’ feedbacks are taken as standards to implement module in the class. Problem
Based Learning in the IPC module provides data that students' mindset in digging information,
developing ideas, planning, making decisions and conclusions undergo changes. This can be seen
from the results of observation when students do exploring, thinking, planning, analyzing and
synthesizing. However, students' ability in evaluating has not shown equal quality to other
problem solving aspects. The percentage of activity in the module that emphasizes the initial phases
of problem solving, i.e. problem identification, information gathering, developing ideas and
planning can be potential causes for students to have less progress in this area. The increasing
number of students qualifying the standard indicates that the use of module can promote better
thinking skills.

Aims

Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) recipients who experienced an ischemic cerebral event may particularly benefit from continuous remote monitoring. We aimed to assess the effect of remote monitoring on the occurrence of 1-year serious adverse events in CIED recipients after ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA).

Methods

Patients were eligible if they suffered a TIA/stroke. Study endpoints were all-cause mortality, all-cause hospitalization, and TIA/stroke recurrence. Patients were retrospectively divided according to the presence of remote monitoring for CIED follow-up.

Results

From January 2011 to December 2017, 71 CIED recipients were hospitalized in our institution for TIA/stroke: pacemaker (76%), cardiac resynchronization therapy device (17%), or implantable cardioverter defibrillator (7%). Among them, 26 (37%) were remotely monitored (RM-ON), whereas 45 (63%) were followed with conventional in-hospital visits (RM-OFF). No significant differences were found in baseline characteristics between groups. The all-cause mortality and hospitalization rates were significantly lower in the RM-ON group [2.2; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.8–4.8, and 5.8; 95% CI 3.3–9.4 per 100 patient-months] as compared with the RM-OFF group (8.1; 95% CI 5.2–11.9, and 9.7; 95% CI 6.5–13.9 per 100 patient-months). Despite a similar incidence of new diagnosis of atrial fibrillation, the median time from the arrhythmic episode to the physician evaluation was dramatically lower in the RM-ON as compared with the RM-OFF group [2 (1–3) vs. 78 (64–92) days; P = 0.002].

Conclusion

We found that remote monitoring as compared with conventional in-hospital visits may contribute to a better outcome in CIED recipients who had suffered from an ischemic cerebral event.

In this article we describe the OpenMolcas environment and invite the computational chemistry community to collaborate. The open-source project already includes a large number of new developments realized during the transition from the commercial MOLCAS product to the open-source platform. The paper initially describes the technical details of the new software development platform. This is followed by brief presentations of many new methods, implementations, and features of the OpenMolcas program suite. These developments include novel wave function methods such as stochastic complete active space self-consistent field, density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) methods, and hybrid multiconfigurational wave function and density functional theory models. Some of these implementations include an array of additional options and functionalities. The paper proceeds and describes developments related to explorations of potential energy surfaces. Here we present methods for the optimization of conical intersections, the simulation of adiabatic and nonadiabatic molecular dynamics and interfaces to tools for semiclassical and quantum mechanical nuclear dynamics. Furthermore, the article describes features unique to simulations of spectroscopic and magnetic phenomena such as the exact semiclassical description of the interaction between light and matter, various X-ray processes, magnetic circular dichroism and properties. Finally, the paper describes a number of built-in and add-on features to support the OpenMolcas platform with post calculation analysis and visualization, and new electronic and muonic basis sets.
