Authors: Mateos Claros Francisco , Olmedo Ruiz Francisco Javier , Esteban Ibáñez Macarena , Amador Muñoz Luis Vicente
Published: January 2020

Este artículo pretende examinar los principales factores culturales y familiares que condicionan el aprendizaje en el periodo infantil en contextos multiculturales, teniendo en cuenta la influencia de esta etapa en el desarrollo del niño. El objetivo de este estudio fue conocer que variables culturales inciden en los avances educativos de estos alumnos. Para analizar estos elementos se utilizó una muestra de 968 sujetos, de los cuales 633 correspondieron al alumnado del tercer curso de Educación Infantil de la C. A. de Ceuta y 335 a los padres de estos alumnos. A todos ellos se les aplicaron instrumentos de elaboración propia: a los alumnos se les midió el rendimiento académico de áreas del lenguaje, mientras que los padres cumplimentaron un cuestionario relacionado con la dinámica familiar. Los resultados obtenidos a través de los análisis estadísticos (descriptivos, inferencial y modelos de regresión) indicaron la existencia de diferencias de rendimiento en todas las áreas relacionadas con el lenguaje en aquellos alumnos con lengua materna distinta a la oficial. Este estudio verificó que los contrastes negativos tienen una relación directa con la dinámica familiar, definida por la religión que en ella se profesa, que en el caso de los musulmanes determina que la lengua cultural-familiar darija es la causa principal.
Malaria parasite segmentation using U-Net: Comparative study of loss functions
Authors: Abraham Julisa Bana
Published: January 2020

The convolutional neural network is commonly used for classification. However, convolutional networks can also be used for semantic segmentation using the fully convolutional network approach. U-Net is one example of a fully convolutional network architecture capable of producing accurate segmentation on biomedical images. This paper proposes to use U-Net for Plasmodium segmentation on thin blood smear images. The evaluation shows that U-Net can accurately perform Plasmodium segmentation on thin blood smear images, besides this study also compares the three loss functions, namely mean-squared error, binary cross-entropy, and Huber loss. The results show that Huber loss has the best testing metrics: 0.9297, 0.9715, 0.8957, 0.9096 for F1 score, positive predictive value (PPV), sensitivity (SE), and relative segmentation accuracy (RSA), respectively.
Automatic Construction of a Depression-Domain Lexicon Based on Microblogs: Text Mining Study (Preprint)
Authors: Li Genghao , Li Bing , Huang Langlin , Hou Sibing
Published: December 2019

BACKGROUND

According to a World Health Organization report in 2017, there was almost one patient with depression among every 20 people in China. However, the diagnosis of depression is usually difficult in terms of clinical detection owing to slow observation, high cost, and patient resistance. Meanwhile, with the rapid emergence of social networking sites, people tend to share their daily life and disclose inner feelings online frequently, making it possible to effectively identify mental conditions using the rich text information. There are many achievements regarding an English web-based corpus, but for research in China so far, the extraction of language features from web-related depression signals is still in a relatively primary stage.

OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this study was to propose an effective approach for constructing a depression-domain lexicon. This lexicon will contain language features that could help identify social media users who potentially have depression. Our study also compared the performance of detection with and without our lexicon.

METHODS

We autoconstructed a depression-domain lexicon using Word2Vec, a semantic relationship graph, and the label propagation algorithm. These two methods combined performed well in a specific corpus during construction. The lexicon was obtained based on 111,052 Weibo microblogs from 1868 users who were depressed or nondepressed. During depression detection, we considered six features, and we used five classification methods to test the detection performance.

RESULTS

The experiment results showed that in terms of the F1 value, our autoconstruction method performed 1% to 6% better than baseline approaches and was more effective and steadier. When applied to detection models like logistic regression and support vector machine, our lexicon helped the models outperform by 2% to 9% and was able to improve the final accuracy of potential depression detection.

CONCLUSIONS

Our depression-domain lexicon was proven to be a meaningful input for classification algorithms, providing linguistic insights on the depressive status of test subjects. We believe that this lexicon will enhance early depression detection in people on social media. Future work will need to be carried out on a larger corpus and with more complex methods.
The relationship between financial crisis and earnings management: Some evidence from the Italian context
Authors: Grimaldi Francesco
Published: January 2020

The aim of this research is to investigate the relationship between the financial crisis and earnings management. Despite the wealth of research examining earnings management, we still have much to learn about the effects of macroeconomic factors on accounting discretional decisions; the recent financial crises may be one of such factors. Particularly, this study aims at investigating whether, in the Italian context, the precarious macroeconomic conditions and the consequent difficulties suffered by listed companies have constituted an incentive to implement earnings management or not. The research is based on a sample of 89 non-financial listed Italian companies and an investigation period (2005-2016) split out into three different sub-periods: a pre-crisis period (2005-2008), a crisis period (2009-2012) and a post-crisis period (2013-2016). The research is conducted using the Beneish Model, due to its capability to identify, although on the basis of likelihood, companies that potentially adopt earnings management. The results of this study suggest an overall low presence of companies at risk of manipulation throughout the period under investigation; however, the most consistent number of such companies is recorded during the pre-crisis period.

The relation between text and illustration: The analysis of contemporary primers
Authors: Seva Nada , Lalic-Vucetic Natasa
Published: January 2020

Numerous research projects underline the importance of illustrations in
improving cognitive part of learning, pointing out that positive influence
is exerted only when illustrations are directly connected with the content
of ? text and when this connection is further strengthened by the
interaction between teachers and pupils. This paper analyses the relation
between text and illustration in primers as first textbooks used by first
graders. Applied taxonomy identifies 46 types of relations between
illustration and text (Marsh & White, 2003), divided into three groups
according to degrees of relations between illustration and text (group ? -
codes expressing little relation between text and illustration; group B -
codes expressing close relation between text and illustration; group C -
codes expressing situations in which illustrations build up and give more
information compared to the content of texts). A sample of 145 pairs of
authors? text and illustration, selected from five primers, was divided into
4 groups by using hierarchical cluster analysis (Ward method). The largest
number of illustrations had only a decorative function. A smaller number of
illustrations were allocated to a cluster with evaluations expressing a
close relation between illustration and text. They clearly define location
of the plot (locate), connect characters of the story, such as plants and
animals, with pupils by giving them human qualities (humanise), concretise
described objects or concepts, introduce pupils to actual relationships
presented in the content of the story (induce perspective) and give visual
representation of abstract and material processes (model). Findings from
this paper point out once again that it is necessary to define production
standards for primers independently of general quality standards for
textbooks, taking into account specific features of these textbooks and
their importance to first graders.
A Framework for Auditing and Strategizing to Ensure Cloud Privacy
Authors: Coss David L. , Dhillon Gurpreet
Published: December 2019

In this study we present a framework for auditing and strategizing to ensure cloud privacy. Management of cloud privacy is a problem since it continues to remain an elusive concept due to the evolving relationship between the pervasiveness of technology and its use by individuals. The Cloud Privacy Framework presented in this paper can be utilized to develop privacy audits, establish privacy practices, and help in defining privacy strategies that are in alignment with individual value systems. The paper extends the privacy objectives presented in Coss and Dhillon (2019) to define a design science-based Cloud Privacy Framework. The framework is externally evaluated, validated, and assessed by a group of information system auditors.

Studies implicating sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in glucagon secretion by pancreatic α-cells reported controversial results. We hypothesized that interindividual heterogeneity in SGLT2 expression and regulation may affect glucagon secretion by human α-cells in response to SGLT2 inhibitors. An unbiased RNA-sequencing analysis of 207 donors revealed an unprecedented level of heterogeneity of SLC5A2 expression. To determine heterogeneity of SGLT2 expression at the protein level, the anti-SGLT2 antibody was first rigorously evaluated for specificity, followed by Western blot and immunofluorescence analysis on islets from 10 and 12 donors, respectively. The results revealed a high interdonor variability of SGLT2 protein expression. Quantitative analysis of 665 human islets showed a significant SGLT2 protein colocalization with glucagon but not with insulin or somatostatin. Moreover, glucagon secretion by islets from 31 donors at low glucose (1 mmol/L) was also heterogeneous and correlated with dapagliflozin-induced glucagon secretion at 6 mmol/L glucose. Intriguingly, islets from three donors did not secrete glucagon in response to either 1 mmol/L glucose or dapagliflozin, indicating a functional impairment of the islets of these donors to glucose sensing and SGLT2 inhibition. Collectively, these data suggest that heterogeneous expression of SGLT2 protein and variability in glucagon secretory responses contribute to interindividual differences in response to SGLT2 inhibitors.

Published: January 2020

AbstrakTradisi bacungak atau turun mandi ini adalah sebuah tradisi yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat pangean untuk meresmikan seorang bayi yang baru lahir agar bisa mandi kesungai dan keluar rumah dengan “bebas”. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk pertama-tama mengetahui tradisi mandi di desa penghijauan. Tujuan kedua adalah untuk mengetahui apa saja peralatan dan prosedur untuk melaksanakan tradisi mandi di desa penghijauan. Tujuan ketiga adalah untuk mengetahui kearifan lokal dari dusun Penghijauan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode deskriptif. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan observasi, wawancara, dokumentasi dan studi literatur. Berdasarkan temuan penelitian, terlihat bahwa orang-orang di dusun penghijauan masih mengangkat dan menjalankan tradisi turun mandi meskipun ada perubahan yang terjadi, yaitu tempat prosesi pelaksanaan di mana tradisi turun mandi dulu dilakukan di sungai tetapi sekarang sungai telah tercemar dan tidak lagi cocok digunakan untuk melaksanakan tradisi mandi. Karena itu, orang sekarang menjalankan tradisi mandi di rumah mereka dan tradisi bacungak ini salah satu kearifan lokal dari masyarakat dusun penghijauan.  Kata Kunci: tradisi turun mandi, kuantan singingi.AbstractThis tradition of bacungak or bathing is a tradition carried out by the Pangean society to inaugurate a newborn baby in order to take a bath in the river and leave the house "freely". The purpose of this study is to first find out the tradition of bathing in the Penghijauan village. The second objective is to find out what equipment and procedures to carry out the tradition of bathing in the Penghijauan village. The third objective is to find out the local wisdom of the Penghijauan Village. This research uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. Data collection is done by observation, interviews, documentation and literature studies. Based on the research findings, it appears that people in the greening village still adopt and carry out the tradition of bathing despite changes that occur, namely the place of the procession where the tradition of bathing was done in the river but now the river has been polluted and is no longer suitable to carry out bathing traditions. Because of this, people now carry out the tradition of bathing in their homes and this tradition is one of the local wisdoms of the people in greening villages. .  Keywords: tradition of bathing, kuantan singingi.
Asignación de probabilidades y acción colectiva como estrategia ganadora en la lotería de Cupones
Authors: Casanova Leal Hugo
Published: January 2020

En este artículo abordamos la creencia de los apostadores según la cual, cuando el premio mayor de las loterías de cupones se acumula, las ventas tienden a incrementarse, pues habría una motivación mayor para participar en el juego. Si bien los economistas clásicos creen que esto es un comportamiento irracional, por no estratégico, el estudio no descarta la validez de esta creencia; halla dos comportamientos en los apostadores que, en lenguaje de juegos, serían una acción individual y otra colectiva; la primera aleatoria, la segunda colocaría las probabilidades en favor de los apostadores. El estudio se hizo sobre cuarenta sorteos de una lotería en Venezuela en el año 2000 y, aun cuando los datos ya son obsoletos respecto de la contabilidad, no lo son respecto del juego, la creencia de los apostadores pervive con datos actuales. Para contrastar esta creencia contra la evidencia empírica, se usaron técnicas estadísticas corrientes aplicadas al modelo del juego y se calcularon las probabilidades a priori y a posteriori de los sorteos, hallando que, paradójicamente, las probabilidades iniciales, estando en favor de los apostadores, el propio mercado las revierte en su contra obligando a la acción colectiva.

Authors: Sulaiman Tukur Abdulkadir , Bulut Hasan , Atas Sibel Sehriban
Published: January 2020

This study reaches the dark, bright, mixed dark-bright, and singular optical solitons to the fractional Schrödinger-Hirota equation with a truncated M-fractional derivative via the extended sinh-Gordon equation expansion method. Dark soliton describes the solitary waves with lower intensity than the background, bright soliton describes the solitary waves whose peak intensity is larger than the background, and the singular soliton solutions is a solitary wave with discontinuous derivatives; examples of such solitary waves include compactions, which have finite (compact) support, and peakons, whose peaks have a discontinuous first derivative. The constraint conditions for the existence of valid solutions are given. We use some suitable values of the parameters in plotting 3-dimensional surfaces to some of the reported solutions.

Authors: Kwizera Felix , Uystepruyst Philippe , Bollens Renaud , Gilles André , Maquet Jean-Hubert
Published: January 2020

Background:

Amyloidosis is a tissue protein deposition. Urethral amyloidosis is rare. Clinical presentation includes hematuria, obstructive urinary symptoms, urethritis-like symptoms, urethral discharge, or a palpable penile/urethral mass. The diagnosis is made by urethro-cystoscopy and biopsy.

Case Presentation:

We report the case of a 38-year-old man with a medical history of recurrent urinary tract infections, urethral discharge, and a palpable bulbar urethral mass. Urethral biopsies confirmed the urethral amyloidosis. The treatment was endoscopic urethral dilatation.

Conclusion:

Urethral amyloidosis is a rare condition and a challenging diagnosis. Urethroscopy is the best method for diagnosis. Biopsies should be done to exclude malignancy.

The History and Rationale for a Separate Bank Resolution Process
Authors: Fitzpatrick Thomas J. , Kearney-Marks Moira , Thomson James B.
Published: January 2020

Everyone recognizes the need to have a credible resolution regime in place for financial companies whose failure could harm the entire financial system, but people disagree about which regime is best. The emergence of the parallel banking system has led policymakers to reconsider the dividing line between firms that should be resolved in bankruptcy and firms that should be subject to a special resolution regime. A look at the history of insolvency resolution in this country suggests that a blended approach is worth considering. Activities that have potential systemic impact might be best handled administratively, while all other claims could be dealt with under a court-supervised resolution.
Overvaluing Residential Properties and the Glut of REO
Authors: Fitzpatrick Thomas J. , Whitaker Stephan D.
Published: January 2020

Swelling REO inventories are the latest fallout of the housing crisis, costing lenders money and contributing to neighborhood blight. Yet lenders could avoid taking on so much REO if they could more accurately estimate the value of the homes they foreclose on, especially in weak housing markets. Correcting this apparent misunderstanding of the market could speed the clearing of REO inventories, save lenders money, and help stabilize housing markets.

The past and present of age and ageing in The Country of the Pointed Firs and Olive Kitteridge
Authors: Šesnić Jelena
Published: January 2020

The text examines the well-known late-nineteenth century novel The Country of the Pointed Firs (1896) by Sarah Orne Jewett and the early twenty-first century novel Olive Kitteridge (2008) by Elizabeth Strout, and sets them in several distinct but intersecting contexts within a larger argument about the reading methodology motivated by age studies and their growing appreciation in the humanities. This argument is then extended in the sections focusing on pastoralism and the way it incorporates, or evades, the question of age and ageing. The next section takes up the possibilities opened up by the pastoral mode and links them to another strain of fiction to which both texts belong despite the temporal distance, that of regionalism and its long tradition specifically in New England fiction examined from the vantage point of age. Finally, the last section of the argument adds further considerations not only of the parallels but also of telling differences between the two texts due to the different temporal and cultural context in which they strive to represent age and ageing. By focusing on emotions and their display as part of the narrative of ageing, both texts (Olive Kitteridge in particular) meaningfully illustrate the issue of age with its many ramifications for the contemporary Western societies. The two texts thus show a transition in American culture in the representations of age and ageing from its pre-scientific phase (in Jewett’s text) to the current medicalized and scientific view of age and its consequences (in Strout’s text).

Osmanlı Devleti’nde uzun mücadeleler sonrasında kabul edilen Meşruti Monarşi yönetim biçimi, yeni yasal düzenlemelerin yapılmasını kaçınılmaz kıldığı kadar, teşkil ettiği kurumlar yoluyla da yeni uygulamaların çekirdeğini oluşturmuştur.
19 Mart 1877 tarihinde faaliyete geçen ilk Osmanlı Meclis-i Mebusanının açılış konuşmasını devrin yöneticisi Sultan II. Abdülhamit yapmış, Ayan ve Mebusana hitabetle başlayan bu konuşmaya adı geçen meclisler de ayrı ayrı cevaplar
hazırlayarak Padişaha takdim etmişlerdir. İlk Meclis-i Mebusanda başlayan bu uygulama 12 Ocak 1920 tarihinde açılışını gerçekleştiren son Osmanlı Meclis-i Mebusanında da aynen uygulanmıştır. Padişah Vahdettin’in Dâhiliye Nazırı
Damat Şerif Paşa vasıtasıyla gerçekleştirdiği bu hitabette; savaşa girmenin yanlışlığı, savaşa karar verenlerin suçluluğu, ülkenin işgallere uğradığı, Yunan işgalinin millette bir direnme azmi oluşturduğu, sağduyulu davranılması,
birlik içinde hareket edilmesi, bir milletin savaş kaybetmesinin kazanılmış haklardan mahrum kalmasına yol açmayacağı gibi konular üzerinde durulmuştur. Sultanın açılış hitabetine Meclis-i Mebusanın “Arıza-i Cevabiyye” olarak nitelenen

A Review of the Effects of Pain and Analgesia on Immune System Function and Inflammation: Relevance for Preclinical Studies
Authors: DeMarco George J , Nunamaker Elizabeth A
Published: January 2020

One of the most significant challenges facing investigators, laboratory animal veterinarians, and IACUCs, is how to balance appropriate analgesic use, animal welfare, and analgesic impact on experimental results. This is particularly true for in vivo studies on immune system function
and inflammatory disease. Often times the effects of analgesic drugs on a particular immune function or model are incomplete or don't exist. Further complicating the picture is evidence of the very tight integration and bidirectional functionality between the immune system and branches of
the nervous system involved in nociception and pain. These relationships have advanced the concept of understanding pain as a protective neuroimmune function and recognizing pathologic pain as a neuroimmune disease. This review strives to summarize extant literature on the effects of pain
and analgesia on immune system function and inflammation in the context of preclinical in vivo studies. The authors hope this work will help to guide selection of analgesics for preclinical studies of inflammatory disease and immune system function.
