Ab Initio Metadynamics Calculations of Dimethylamine for Probing pKb Variations in Bulk vs. Surface Environments
Authors: Biswas Sohag , Kwon Hyuna , Barsanti Kelley , Myllys Nanna , Smith James N. , Wong Bryan
Published: September 2020

The basicity constant, or pKb, is an intrinsic physical property of bases that gives a measure of its proton affinity in macroscopic environments. While the pKb is typically defined in reference to the bulk aqueous phase, several studies have suggested that this value can differ significantly at the air-water interface (which can have significant ramifications for particle surface chemistry and aerosol growth modeling). To provide mechanistic insight into surface proton affinity, we carried out ab initio metadynamics calculations to (1) explore the free-energy profile of dimethylamine and (2) provide reasonable estimates of the pKb value in different solvent environments. We find that the free-energy profiles obtained with our metadynamics calculations show a dramatic variation, with interfacial aqueous dimethylamine pKb values being significantly lower than in the bulk aqueous environment. Furthermore, our metadynamics calculations indicate that these variations are due to reduced hydrogen bonding at the air-water surface. Taken together, our quantum mechanical metadynamics calculations show that the reactivity of dimethylamine is surprisingly complex, leading to pKb variations that critically depend on the different atomic interactions occurring at the microscopic molecular level.

Background

The risk of contracting rabies is low for travellers. However, the number of Dutch travellers potentially exposed abroad following an animal-associated injury and needing post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) has increased, resulting in increased costs.

Aim

Here, we evaluated the costs and the cost-effectiveness of different pre- and post-exposure interventions in the Netherlands, taking into account the 2018 World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations for the prevention of rabies.

Methods

A decision tree-based economic model was constructed. We calculated and compared the cost of different WHO pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) recommendations, intramuscular vs intradermal vaccination and PEP subsequent to increased vaccination coverage in risk groups. We estimated cost-effectiveness, expressed as incremental costs per rabies immunoglobulin (RIG) administration averted, using a societal perspective. Statistical uncertainty regarding number of travellers and vaccination coverage was assessed.

Results

Total costs at the national level were highest using previous WHO recommendations from 2012, estimated at EUR 15.4 million annually. Intradermal vaccinations in combination with the current recommendations led to the lowest costs, estimated at EUR 10.3 million. Higher vaccination uptake resulted in higher overall costs. The incremental costs per RIG administration averted varied from EUR 21,300-46,800.

Conclusions

The change in rabies PrEP and PEP recommendations in 2018 reduced total costs. Strategies with increased pre-travel vaccination uptake led to fewer RIG administrations and fewer vaccinations after exposure but also to higher total costs. Although larger scale intradermal administration of rabies vaccine can reduce total costs of PrEP and can positively influence vaccination uptake, it remains a costly intervention.
Abandon of intramuscular administration of rabies immunoglobulin for post-exposure prophylaxis in the revised guidelines in the Netherlands in 2018: cost and volume savings

Published: September 2020

The World Health Organization (WHO) issued an updated position paper on rabies in 2018, mainly focusing on simplification of vaccination schedules and use of rabies immunoglobulin (RIG). The maximum amount of RIG anatomically feasible should be infiltrated exclusively in and around the wound and will no longer be calculated solely based on body weight. We describe the practical guideline implementing the revised RIG policy in the Netherlands on how to determine the amount of RIG for local administration. We calculated savings achieved through the revised WHO policy. We used information from a national database including rabies consultations in the Netherlands and clinical information from a public health service, clinical practitioners and national data on the amount of distributed RIG. Between 2008 and 2019, 5,164 consultations were registered. The most frequently affected anatomical location was hand or leg (43%). Around 80% concerned minor injuries (< 2 cm). From January 2016 to end December 2019, 7,361 mL RIG were distributed for 1,042 possible rabies exposures (EUR 1.4 million). Since implementing the revised policy, the amount of RIG distributed per order has sharply decreased (59%). Infiltrating RIG only locally saved large quantities of human RIG (EUR 1.1 million during 4 years) in the Netherlands.

ACCESSIBILITY ISSUES RELATING TO ELDERLY IN INDIA- A STUDY
Authors: Uma V.R.
Published: September 2020

Older people are the only growing segment of world’s population. They are one of the important consumers and contributors to the economic and social lives of the member states of this world. As citizens, they should share the same rights as people of other ages to access to every part of our society. Yet, the reality of life is that older people face barriers in some of the most basic areas of life –areas which other members of our community can access at will – just because of their age. older people and indeed people from other age groups, face unnecessary discrimination in other parts of their lives and  this is neither in the interests of individuals or in the interest of our economy and society. In an ageing society we need a cultural and policy framework which breaks down barriers to participation rather than erecting and permitting them, and maximises the ability of individuals to participate in economic and social activity, whatever their personal characteristics.

Objectives: To evaluate the role of RIPASA scoring system for diagnosis of acute appendicitis taking histopathology as gold standard. Study Design: Prospective Study. Setting: Department of General Surgery, Nishter Hospital Multan. Period: February 2016 to February 2017. Material & Methods: One hundred and sixty 160 patients were included in this study. Study was started after ethical approval from ethical board of institution and informed consent from patients was taken. Non probability consecutive sampling was used. Main outcome variables were sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy of RIPASA score. SPSS version was used to analyze data. P value ≤ 0.05 was considered as significant. Results: Estimated sensitivity was 97.9%, which means that of the patients with acute appendicitis, 97.9% were diagnosed correctly. The estimated specificity was 76.9%, which means that of the patients not having acute appendicitis, 76.9% were diagnosed correctly. Positive predictive value was 86.1% and negative predictive value was 96.2%. The overall accuracy was 89.4% for diagnosing acute appendicitis. Conclusion: RIPASA scoring system is efficient, reliable and more diagnostic in cases of acute appendicitis. Abdominal ultrasonography is not suitable diagnostic tool to rule out negative appendectomy.
Sweetness beyond Desserts: The Cultural, Symbolic, and Botanical History of Angelica (Angelica archangelica) in the Nordic Region
Authors: Teixidor-Toneu Irene , Kjesrud Karoline , Kool Anneleen
Published: September 2020

Throughout Nordic history, angelica ( Angelica archangelica) has been a valued resource, often referred to as sweet. This article is inspired by multispecies studies and examines the role of sweetness in the relationship between this plant and Nordic peoples. A review of the ethnobotanical literature is woven together with historical, philological, and ethnographic data to trace angelica's properties and uses throughout Nordic history. Angelica's area of distribution expanded over time and its carbohydrate content increased in some semi-domesticated varieties. In turn, humans relied on it as a food source and conveyor of cultural meaning and value. We find that the plant has been associated with different qualities at different times and that it became sweet through time both materially and symbolically. However, angelica has now mostly disappeared from Nordic diets, while other ingredients in early twentieth century dessert recipes have remained. Our interdisciplinary analysis indicates that symbolism, rather than taste, may explain the sweet character that is associated with angelica in the Nordic region.

Discretion is part of the authority to act freely by government officials to ensure the implementation of public services. However, the discretionary arrangement attached to a position when it must be immediately acted without a written law creates a conflict regarding the government must be based on law. On the other hand, the need for discretion becomes a polemic regarding occupational responsibility and personal responsibility in the use of discretion whose parameters sometimes cause harm to society. The results of this research are of interest that the implications of using official diskettes for public services will cause harm to the state and society. The use of discretion is used as a tool for personal gain and authority which results in violating statutory regulations, contrary to legal principles, acts against the law, and AAUPB.Keywords: discretion, job responsibility, personal responsibility

ABSTRAK

Dalam islam, konsep kepemimpinan diyakini mempunyai nilai yang khas dari sekedar kepengikutan bawahan dan pencapaian tujuan lembaga. Ada nilai-nilai transcendental yang diperjuangkan dalam kepemimpinan islami dalam organisasi apapun. Nilai-nilai tersebut menjadi pijakan dalam melakukan aktifitas kepemimpinan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui secara mendalam tentang bagaimana seharusnya penerapan sikap pemimpin yang baik dan benar sesuai Al-Qur’an khususnya pada aspek pengawasan dan evaluasi. Metodologi yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah metode tafsir maudhu’I ( tematik ), dari QS. Al-Baqarah ayat 30-31 dan Al-Qur’an surat Al-Ahzab ayat 21 dapat diambil kesimpulan tentang ciri-ciri pemimpin yang baik yang harus bisa diterapkan oleh seorang pemimpin didalam kehidupan yaitu, pertama pemimpin harus memiliki pengetahuan dan kemampuan yang cukup untuk mengendalikan lembaga atau organisasinya, kedua pempin harus dapat menjadi suri tauladan bagi para anggotanya. Dalam islam ada tiga konsep pengawasan, yang pertama manusia melaporkan kesaksian atas dirinya, kedua Allah mengawasai secara langsung, ketiga Allah mengutus para malaikat untuk mengawasi umatnya. Dan ada tiga konsep Evaluasi dalam Al-Qur’an yaitu Al-Inba’, Al-Hisab, Al-Bala.
Ossabaw Pig Demonstrates Detrusor Fibrosis and Detrusor Underactivity Associated with Oxidative Stress in Metabolic Syndrome

Published: September 2020

Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) has detrimental effects on the bladder, including detrusor underactivity. The progression and mechanism of disease are poorly understood. A swine model for diabetic bladder dysfunction (DBD) was established because of the pig's human-sized bladder and its ability
to develop MetS by dietary modification alone. The hypothesis of this study is that this swine model will demonstrate oxidative stress associated with MetS, which contributes to both bladder fibrosis and detrusor underactivity (DU). Ossabaw pigs underwent dietary modification consisting of
a hypercaloric, atherogenic diet for 10 mo to induce MetS, and were compared with a group of control (lean) pigs. Urodynamic studies were performed in both groups to confirm DU. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) detected in the urine were used to measure oxidative stress activity
in the urinary tract, and urinary IL17a was used to detect profibrotic activity. MetS was confirmed by assessing body weight, blood pressure, glucose tolerance, total cholesterol, and triglycerides. The MetS group exhibited an increase in the relative levels of urinary TBARS and IL17a. Bladder
pressures at capacity were lower in the MetS group, suggesting DU. Histologic analysis of a cohort of control (lean) and MetS pigs revealed that as compared with the control pigs, the MetS pigs had significantly more collagen in the muscularis layer, but not in the submucosa or mucosa layer.
In conclusion, the Ossabaw pig model for diet-induced MetS is associated with oxidative stress and profibrotic activity in the bladder, which results in DU. This has previously been shown in mice and rats, but never in pigs. This novel model will better represent human MetS and DBD because
the mechanism and size of the pig bladder more closely resemble that of a human, resulting in a more valid model and facilitating further study into the signaling mechanisms responsible for this impairment.
Antibody-Mediated Immune Subset Depletion Modulates the Immune Response in a Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) Model of Epstein-Barr Virus Infection

Published: September 2020

Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a γ-herpesvirus which infects over 90% of the adult human population. Most notably, this virus causes infectious mononucleosis but it is also associated with cancers such as Hodgkin and Burkitt lymphoma. EBV is a species-specific virus and has been
studied in many animal models, including nonhuman primates, guinea pigs, humanized mice, and tree shrews. However, none of these animal models are considered the "gold standard" for EBV research. Recently, rabbits have emerged as a viable alternative model, as they are susceptible to EBV infection.
In addition, the EBV infection progresses after immune suppression with cyclosporine A (CsA), modeling the reactivation of EBV after latency. We sought to refine this model for acute or active EBV infections by performing antibody-mediated depletion of certain immune subsets in rabbits. Fourteen
16 to 20-wk old, NZW rabbits were intravenously inoculated with EBV and concurrently treated with either anti-CD4 T-cell antibody, anti-pan-T-cell antibody (anti CD45), CSA, or, as a control, anti-HPV antibody. Rabbits that received the depleting antibodies were treated with CsA 3 times at
a dose of 15 mg/kg SC once per day for 4 d starting at the time of EBV inoculation then the dose was increased to 20 mg/kg SC twice weekly for 2 wk. Weights, temperatures, and clinical signs were monitored, and rabbits were anesthetized once weekly for blood collection. When compared with
the control group, anti-CD4-treated rabbits had fewer clinical signs and displayed higher levels of viral DNA via qPCR in splenocytes; however, flow cytometry results showed only a partial depletion of CD4 T-cells. Treatment with anti-pan-T-cell antibody did not result in noticeable T-cell
depletion. These data suggest the EBV-infected rabbit is a promising model for testing antiviral medications and prophylactic vaccines for EBV.

O intuito desta pesquisa é demonstrar que já é possível o tratamento de queimaduras de uma forma que venhadiminuir o sofrimento do paciente. É sabido que os ferimentos em decorrência de queimaduras são, por sua natureza,extremamente doloridos, sobretudo, no momento da troca do curativo.As queimaduras constituem um grave problema de saúde pública, representando a segunda causa de morte nainfância no Brasil. Segundo a Sociedade Brasileira de Queimaduras, estima-se que, no Brasil, ocorram em torno de ummilhão de acidentes com queimaduras por ano. Destes, cem mil pacientes procuram atendimento hospitalar e cercade dois mil e quinhentos falecerão, direta ou indiretamente, de suas lesões.Diante desta situação, o professor/coordenador do SOS Queimaduras e Feridas do Hospital São Marcos de Recife (PE) conjuntamente com a equipe de pesquisadores liderados pelo professor Edmar Maciel, presidente do Institutode Apoio ao Queimado (IAQ), propuseram que o tratamento de feridas oriundas de queimaduras com a pele da tilápia tem se revelado muito eficaz, principalmente, por evitar as dores que ocorrem no momento da troca do curativo.Informa ainda que além da eficiência na cura dos ferimentos, este tratamento não submete o paciente às fortesdores e incômodo no momento da troca do curativo, uma vez que, por meio deste procedimento, não há necessidade da troca do curativo. Além de não haver necessidade da troca do curativo, que já seria muito importante, em razãode evitar o paciente do sofrimento, também revelou-se que a pele do pescado possui duas vezes mais colágenos (tipo1) que a pele humana.No ano de 2017, a equip

Financial contagion and 2016 oil crisis: a factor analysis
Authors: Maya Turki
Published: September 2020

The paper tries to answer the following question:
could the 2016 oil price crisis generate financial contagion among stock
markets?

The study period is composed of two sub-periods; a
quiet one from 3/01/2012 to 01/08/2014 and
turbulent one from 04/08/2014 to 25/05/2016. Raw data consists of daily international
stock market indexes prices. The co-movements of the stock market returns are
analyzed through a principal component analysis (PCA).

The results revealed that the KMO index (Kaiser-Mayer-Olkin) is higher
during the turbulent period than during the quiet one and that the proportion
of variance explained by the first component during the turbulent period
reached 35% while during the quiet one it represented only
26,7%.Regarding the component structure, for the turbulent period, three
factors are able to explain the stock markets indexes movements while for the
quiet period four factors are required.

The findings give
more credit to the thesis supporting the linkage between cross correlation and
financial contagion and classify the 2016 oil crisis, as just a coupling
episode and not an extreme one.

Predicting Political Views in Social Media: VKontakte as a case study
Authors: Glazkova Anna , Sokova Zinaida , Kruzhinov Valery
Published: September 2020

We consider the task of predicting the political views of VKontakte users based on textual data posted on their personal pages. The analysis of social media is an increasingly important area in digital humanities, opinion mining, and natural language processing. Nowadays, social networks contain a lot of meaningful and freely distributed data describing the views and moods of society. First, we analyzed information from user pages of various categories identified on the basis of the VKontakte political polarization. Personal profiles contain textual categorical values and text fields that are filled in by the user in a free form. We encoded categorical features as a one-hot numeric array and used the Bag-of-Words model for free-form text representation. Next, we applied a simple machine learning classifier based on Linear Support Vector Machines to the textual data of the custom page. We have shown that the classifier is better at separating groups of social media users with opposite political views than adherents of closer political ideologies.

Published: September 2020

Menurut Tangdilintin (2009) Istilah aluk rambu solo’ terbangun dari tiga kata, yaitu aluk (keyakinan), rambu (asap atau sinar), dan turun. Dengan demikian, aluk rambu solo’ dapat diartikan sebagai upacara yang dilaksanakan pada waktu sinar matahari mulai turun (terbenam). Sebutan lain untuk upacara ini adalah aluk rampe matampu’. Aluk artinya keyakinan atau aturan, rampe artinya sebelah atau bagian, dan matampu’ artinya barat. Jadi, makna aluk rampe matampu ’adalah upacara yang dilaksanakan di sebelah barat dari rumah atau tongkonan.

Effect of polymer content and temperature on mechanical properties of lightweight polymer concrete
Authors: Jafari Khashayar
Published: September 2020

This study investigates the mechanical properties of lightweight polymer concrete (LWPC) containing four different polymer ratios (10%, 12%, 14%, and 16%) tested at three different temperatures (−15 °C, +5 °C, and +25 °C) using destructive and non-destructive tests. In addition, a series of expressions are suggested to predict the splitting-tensile, flexural and impact strength of LWPC based on the main parameters and compressive strength. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) method was also used to determine relative contributions of the experimental parameters. The results of the destructive tests show that increasing the polymer ratio caused an increase in the compressive, splitting-tensile, and impact strengths, and energy absorption of LWPC. With decreasing the temperature from +25 °C to −15 °C, the compressive, splitting-tensile, flexural strengths, and elastic modulus (EM) increased, whereas the energy absorption, impact energy, and ductility decreased. The findings of this research provide beneficial information toward understanding the behavior of LWPC and its safe use in engineering applications where a material of high strength-to-weight ratio is required.

Published: September 2020

The objective of the study was to identify the relationship between Job Stress, Psychological Distress, and Job Satisfaction among employees in comparison to day shift and night shift. The sample consisted of 60 employees, divided equally in both shifts (30-day shift and 30-night shift) and selected randomly with simple random sampling technique and volunteer sampling technique. The research tools used are Occupational Stress Index (OSI) to measure job stress, General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28) to measure psychological distress, and Job Satisfaction Scale (JSS) to measure job satisfaction. For the analysis, Independent Sample t-test and Pearson’s Correlation were used to identify and compare the relationship between the independent variables (Day shift and Night shift) and dependent variables (Job Stress, Psychological Distress, and Job Satisfaction). The research findings examined by Independent Samples t-test on GHQ-28 (t (45) = -3.655, p = 0.001), OSI (t (58) = -4.538, p = 0.000), JSS (t (58) = -5.126, p = 0.000), was found to be statistically significant, where the night shift employees experienced more psychological distress and job stress, and low job satisfaction compared to the day shift employees. Pearson’s correlation, suggests a positive correlation between GHQ and OSI (r = 0.541), and negative relation between GHQ and JSS (r = -0.589), and OSI and JSS (r = -0.669), which were all significant at the 0.01 level. The results indicate that the employees working in night shift experienced higher Job Stress and Psychological Distress, and Low Job Satisfaction than day shift.
