Authors: Singh Rao Mahendra , Verma L. N.
Published: February 2020

Employees’ mental discernment of the physical and psychological desirability in the work place is termed as Quality of Work Life (QWL). There are numerous aspects in the work environment that add to QWL which can be directly related to work conditions. A better working environment leads to gratified employees. Better organizational performance, effectiveness, innovativeness, etc. can be achieved through high QWL. QWL improves the family life as well as work life of an individual. ICT innovations have brought changes within the work environment of library professionals. This paper aims to measure the QWL of Library Professionals to identify the relation between QWL of library professionals and factors such as interpersonal relationship, status, service conditions, promotional policies, and motivation for employee’s future role and develop skills. For this purpose library professionals working in Engineering Institutes of Jaipur region have been surveyed Likert’s 5-point scale has been used. A questionnaire was used for data collection which has been analyzed using statistical techniques such as Weighted Arithmetic Mean (WAM), standard deviation, chi-square test, and t-Test.

QUALITY CRITERIA FOR AUTOMATIC CORRELATION OF WELL SECTIONS BASED ON LOGGING DATA
Authors: Lapkovsky V. V. , Moiseev S. A. , Lunev B. V.
Published: February 2020

A criterion is proposed for a formal assessment of the quality of automatically generated correlation schemes, their ranking and finding the best construction parameters based on leave-one-out cross-validation. The best correlation solution is considered to be one that provides a smaller error in predicting the spatial distribution of petrophysical properties in the sedimentary sequence. The applicability of the criterion was tested on the example of Vendian-Cambrian sections of the Chayandinskoye oil-gas and condensate field in Eastern Siberia.

Published: February 2020

Background: To investigate the serum levels of 25(OH)D and minerals in adults and children with haemophilia A, and the possible association of these factors with Pediatric Haemophilia/Haemophilia Activities List (PedHAL/HAL), Haemophilia Joint Health Score (HJHS) and Haemophilia-specific quality of life (QoL) index this case-control study was conducted.
Materials and Methods: Eighty five haemophilia A patients (HP) registered in Hemophilia Society of Lorestan province were recruited. Along with HP, sex and age matched healthy controls (HCs) were recruited. Linear regression was used to evaluate the possible relation between biochemical factors and other variables. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare the biochemical factors between three or more independent groups.
Results: Results indicated that serum zinc, phosphorus and magnesium were significantly lower, whereas, serum level of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was statistically higher in HP compared with HCs. Other biochemical factors including calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH) were not different between groups. Serum 25(OH) D was lower only in children with haemophilia and not in adults. Percentage of subjects who were vitamin D deficient was higher in HP vs. HCs (57.6% vs. 35.3%), and also this rate was higher in children with haemophilia vs. adults (77.8% vs. 48.3%). Lower serum concentrations of assessed minerals and vitamin D were associated with lower physical activity, poor QoL and worst joint health, and these associations were stronger in children.
Conclusion: Present study indicated that serum levels of vitamin D and minerals were low in HP, and these low levels were associated with poor QoL, lower physical activity and worst joint health.

Published: February 2020

The chemotherapeutic all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) used in the treatment of Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia has adverse effects on its oral administration, with which we incorporated a system of drugs, the nanocapsules, in order to have a possible improvement in solubility, photosensitivity, lower toxicity, generating pharmacological efficacy. The objective was to evaluate and compare the hemolytic and coagulation activity of the free drug (AL), nanoencapsulated (NA) and the white nanocapsules (NB) by analyzing the results of hemolysis, Prothrombin Time (PT) and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT). We developed a prospective study of treatments at different concentrations of 0.25; 0.5; 1.0; 1.5; 2.0; 2.5 μg/mL. For the first test, all concentrations showed hemolytic activity, but when compared to NA with ATRA it is observed that these carriers induced lower hemolytic toxicity. In the PT test the nanoparticles at the two lowest concentrations remained in the physiological range (12 - 15 seconds). For the APTT test the three lowest concentrations remained within the control (25 - 35 seconds). Thus, we believe there is a promising benefit of using these nanoparticles developed and no doubt further studies will be performed to confirm the responses obtained here.
TOXIC CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS DETECTION FOR THE SOCIETY SOCIAL HEALTH CARE PREVENTION
Authors: Terziev Venelin , Petkova - Georgieva Stoyanka
Published: February 2020

Presently, there is no single detector which has all the desirable capabilities and performance functions, and currently available detectors all vary considerably in cost, performance and reliability. As such care must be taken to select a detector based on the abovementioned factors and operational requirements. Furthermore, many detector manufacturers make claims based on their own testing, some of which have not been thoroughly verified by third party laboratories. In this case we have only different stages of the same process: hazardous chemical is used in the production; concerning the hazards and subsequent problems with the legislative regulations of the finances, producers start to search for alternative technology; technology is developed and implemented; technology is used for making majority of the related product without the use of hazardous substance. In the example of phosgene – this process just begun in the near past, in the case of hydrogen cyanide – the process is near the end, and in case of other chemical process is at the end. The old technology with a hazards replaced by new one – more friendly to the environment and human health.

Immigrants and the Criminal Justice System: An Exploratory Study
Authors: Davis Robert C. , Erez Edna , Avitabile Nancy E.
Published: February 2020

Experts have argued that there are significant barriers to recent immigrants' use of the criminal justice system. This exploratory study, using convenience samples, is among the first to look empirically at the experiences of recent immigrant victims with the criminal justice system in the United States. Contrary to expectations, we found that immigrants reported relatively few problems unique to foreign-born persons in dealing with the police and the courts, and that their satisfaction with the justice system was comparable to levels reported in studies of native-born victims. The results suggest that although recent immigrants' expectations ofthe criminal justice system may be different from those of native born, the experiences of immigrant victims and their satisfaction with the justice system are similar in many respects to those of native-born victims.
History of Trauma and Attempted Suicide Among Women in a Primary Care Setting
Authors: Wiederman Michael W. , Sansone Randy A. , Sansone Lori A.
Published: February 2020

The results of past research have demonstrated apparent links between suicidality and a history of sexual abuse or physical abuse. However, the relative predictive power of such abuse histories in explaining suicidality remains unknown, as does the potential relationship between suicidality and emotional abuse, physical neglect, and witnessing violence. In the current study, 151 women who presented for nonemergent medical care indicated whether they had experienced each of five types of abuse and whether they had ever attempted suicide. Similar to past research, increased rates of having attempted suicide were evident among women who had been sexually or physically abused. Rates of past suicide attempts were also higher among those who had experienced emotional abuse or had witnessed violence. However, many women indicated having experienced multiple forms of trauma. In a multivariate analysis, only sexual abuse and physical abuse were uniquely predictive of having attempted suicide. Results are discussed with regard to the potential importance of bodily intrusiveness during abuse as most predictive of subsequent suicidality.
Coercive Sexual Strategies
Authors: Tyler Kimberly A. , Hoyt Danny R. , Whitbeck Les B.
Published: February 2020

This study examines the use of coercive sexual strategies by men and the outcomes of these behaviors for women. Using a sample of 541 college undergraduates, data were gathered from men on their use of three types of coercive sexual strategies and from women on their experiences with these same forms of behaviors. For women, there is a positive association between being sexually active, having sexually permissive attitudes, drinking alcohol and being a victim of certain types of sexual coercive strategies. For men, sexually permissive attitudes and attitudes toward rape are found to be significant predictors of their use of verbal coercion. Furthermore, being a fraternity member is associated with the use of verbal coercion and physical force and being a sorority member is associated with being a victim of alcohol/drug coercion and physical force. Reports from both men and women give a more comprehensive interpretation of the specific mechanisms through which different coercive strategies are played out.
Brief Research Report: Mortality Associated With the Use of Upper-Body Control Holds by Police
Authors: Mercy James A. , Heath Clark W. , Rosenberg Mark L.
Published: February 2020

A review of police records for the nine-year period from 1974 to 1982 identified 20 men who died following restraint by an upper-body control hold while in the custody of a large, urban police department. Using evidence from autopsy findings and police reports of events immediately preceding death, we concluded that control-hold use was associated with death in 19 of the 20 cases. This investigation points to three factors potentially associated with control hold-related death that deserve further investigation: Phencyclidine (PCP) use, sickle cell trait, and stress-related arrhythmias in the heart. PCP was detected in blood or other tissues from 6 of 17 decedents tested. Intravascular red blood cell sickling was found at autopsy in 4 of 14 black decedents (29%). Four decedents had some indication of cardiovascular abnormalities.
Juror and Expert Conceptions of Battered Women
Authors: Dodge Mary , Greene Edith
Published: February 2020

The admissibility of expert testimony at the trial of a battered woman defendant is very controversial. Some courts allow the testimony, others do not. This study focuses on two criteria judges use to determine admissibility and attempts to provide an empirical foundation that can assist their decisions. First, the area of study about which an expert testifies must be shown to be reliable and valid. Second, the subject matter of the testimony must be beyond the ken of the average juror. The first criterion was addressed by assessing the opinions of 45 researchers in the field of spousal violence. The second criterion was examined by evaluating the knowledge of 141 jurors about myths and empirical research findings associated with battered women. Results indicate that researchers showed strong consensus on 14 of 18 issues included in a survey about the reactions of abuse victims, and that compared to these “experts,” jurors have limited knowledge on these issues. These results suggest that many of the scientific fmdings concerning battered women are reliable and that the information is often beyond the ken of the jury. The fmdings argue for the use of expert testimony in certain cases involving battered woman defendants.
Patterns of Socially Desirable Responding Among Perpetrators and Victims of Wife Assault
Authors: Dutton Donald G. , Hemphill Kenneth J.
Published: February 2020

Wife assaulters attending a treatment group and women who had just exited an abusive relationship were asked to report on the extent of physical violence and emotional abuse in their relationship. Measures of socially desirable responding (SDR) were administered to both groups. Wife assaulters' self-reports of physical abuse correlated negatively with one SDR measure (the Balanced Inventory of Desirable Responding) but not another (the Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability Scale); emotional abuse correlated negatively with both measures. Although physical abuse was primarily related to impression management, psychological abuse was affected by both impression management and self-deception aspects of SDR. Wife assaulters' reports of their own anger also correlated negatively with SDR. Both self-deception and impression management appear to contribute to underreporting of anger. Finally, abuse victims' reports of both physical and emotional abuse were unrelated to SDR.
Dating Violence, Social Learning Theory, and Gender: A Multivariate Analysis
Authors: Tontodonato Pamela , Crew B. Keith
Published: February 2020

The study of violence between dating partners is a logical extension of interest in marital violence. However, little of this research tests explanations of intimate violence using multivariate techniques, and only recently have such tests occurred within a theoretical framework. Drawing on a recent social learning model of courtship violence (Riggs & O'leary, 1989), this paper empirically examines constructs hypothesized to be predictive of the use of dating violence and investigates possible gender differences in the underlying causal structure of such violence. Logit analysis indicates that parent-child violence, drug use, and know ledge of use of dating violence by others predict the use of courtship violence by females. Belief that violence between intimates is justifiable, drug use, and parental divorce are related to perpetration of dating aggression by males. Explanations for these results and the importance of a multivariate approach to the problem are discussed.
Recruiting Nonviolent Men as Control Subjects for Research on Marital Violence: How Easily Can It Be Done?
Authors: Holtzworth-Munroe Amy , Waltz Jennifer , Jacobson Neil S. , Monaco Valerie , Fehrenbach Peter A. , Gottman John M.
Published: February 2020

Data regarding the prevalence of violence among subjects recruited for nonviolent control groups in five studies are presented. These studies examined subjects recruited using a variety of methods, including couples seeking marital therapy and couples recruited from newspaper advertisements. Across the studies, it appears that up to onethird of maritally nondistressed couples and one-half of maritally distressed couples report that husband violence has occurred in their relationship. The implications of these data for the recruitment of control groups in future studies of marital violence are discussed, and questions regarding the ease of recruiting nonviolent couples for control groups are raised.
An Exploration of the Violent Victim Experiences of Female Offenders
Authors: Lake Elise S.
Published: February 2020

Female offenders are often portrayed as victims of violence, yet few studies have systematically examined such victimization. Violent experiences may both contribute to, and result from, crime - early family abuse may help propel a young woman into crime, and a criminal lifestyle may increase her risk of assault by strangers and intimate partners. Using data from 83 inmates, this study examined violent childhood and adult experiences, and explored possible linkages between victimization and offending. Although many women reported violent experiences, most striking was the high rate of assault by intimate partners. Early physical abuse was associated with earlier entry into crime, and with more diverse criminal activity. Attacks by strangers were more often reported by women who engaged in more frequent and diverse criminal activity. The data suggest that in order to understand female crime, additional research on the complex relationships between offending and victimization is warranted.

Kutatásunk középpontjában a diszkrét választási kísérlet alkalmazhatóságának vizsgálata volt, az élelmiszerekkel (jelen esetben margarinnal) kapcsolatosan. A módszertan hatékonyságának felmérése mellett szerettünk volna képet kapni arról, hogyan is ítélnek meg a hazai fogyasztók egy olyan egészség szempontjából megosztó terméket, mint a margarint. Azaz milyen tulajdonságokat várnak el és melyek azok, amelyek növelik/csökkentik hasznosságérzetüket. Továbbá ezek összhangban vannak-e a civilizációs megbetegedések megelőzésével. A válaszok megtalálásához a Debreceni Egyetem Gazdaságtudományi Karának hallgatói körében vittük végig a diszkrét választás kísérletét, a szakirodalomban leírt részletességgel. Modellünk becslései, a módszertan jelen területen történő sikeres alkalmazhatóságát igazolják. A kapott eredmények alapján, a zsír és sótartalom növekedésével arányosan csökken a fizetési hajlandóság (WTP), az előzetes elvárásokkal ellentétben a fogyasztói hasznosságérzetet nem befolyásolja jelentős mértékben a napraforgóolaj tartalom. A nyert információkból hasonló konzekvenciára jutottunk, mint a bevezetőben hivatkozott irodalmak szerzői. Következtetésünk szerint a mintában szereplő fogyasztók között részben jelen van az egészségtudatosság és a civilizációs megbetegedések megelőzését szolgáló döntéseket hozzák meg választásaik során. Kutatásunk korlátai között említést kell tenni újfent arról, hogy a tanulmány elsődleges célja a módszertan tesztelése volt, a bevont minta nem reprezentatív, így az eredmények nem alkalmasak általánosításra. Emellett az alkalmazott modell magyarázóereje (R^2) csekély. Ezen tényezőkből adódóan, jövőbeni kutatási irányokat jelenthet egy reprezentatív minta vizsgálata, valamint további modellek tesztelése.

A Educação dos Surdos no Século XIX
Authors: Souza Verônica dos Reis Mariano
Published: February 2020

Este trabalho discorre sobre a educação dos surdos no Brasil, durante o período de 1868 a 1896, e tem a compreensão de que os surdos enfrentam outro  silêncio, aquele que ainda persiste quanto à história de sua educação. Seu tema é a primeira instituição de educação de  surdos do Brasil, que, no início, chamava-se Imperial Instituto dos  Meninos Surdos e, hoje, Instituto Nacional de Educação dos Surdos, (INES). Porconseguinte, além de considerar fragmentos importantes para uma reflexão sobre historiografia da educação de surdos, é direcionado um foco de luz à atuação do médico Tobias Rabello Leite, como diretor da referida Instituição, no período estudado. Esse sergipano teve um papel primordial na organização, implantação e ampliação de um expressivo trabalho pedagógico desenvolvido naquele Instituto. Ademais, foi necessário correlacionar aspectos da cultura educacional do final da época imperial e do início da republicana. O levantamento da documentação foi realizado em fontes primárias e secundárias, atentando-se para alguns aspectos gerais dos métodos de ensino então utilizados.
Culturas digitais na educação do Século XXI
Authors: Lucena Simone , Oliveira José Mario Aleluia
Published: February 2020

As tecnologias digitais estão representadas pela convergência das tecnologias de informática (programas e equipamentos), microeletrônica, telecomunicações, radiodifusão, engenharia genética e optoeletrônica. Essas tecnologias passaram a representar, a partir da década de 70, papel fundamental na economia e no desenvolvimento dos países, gerando, como afirma Castells (1999), uma nova revolução tecnológica. O século XXI está sendo marcado pela universalização das tecnologias digitais e dispositivos móveis conectados em redes, que nos colocam em constante interação com (ciber)espaços sócio-tecnicos onde a comunicação ocorre em lugares não fixos, registrando fatos e informações no instante em que eles acontecem. Os jovens são os que mais utilizam esta forma de comunicação, tornando-a uma marca, um habitus dessa geração caracterizada, dentre outros fatores, pela grande imersão nas culturas digitais. Nesse sentido, o uso cada vez maior dos dispositivos móveis entre os jovens, e sua imersão nas culturas digitais, constituem-se hoje como alguns dos grandes desafios para a educação, principalmente para a formação docentes, pois estes jovens que são autores e produtores nas redes sociais precisam ter outra forma de comportamento, na escola, condizente com um modelo de educação que prioriza a reprodução e a transmissão de informação.

Published: February 2020

Com a presença marcante das diferentes formas de mídias, atualmente, o mundo vive a era midiática, elevando a uma quantidade significativa de estudiosos de diversas áreas do conhecimento (educação, filosofia, psicologia, sociologia, psiquiatria) que vêm realizando pesquisas para compreender a ação das mídias no processo educativos das crianças. De acordo com essas elucidações, o professor já não pode abster da ação das mídias no cotidiano das crianças, pois, hodiernamente, é cada vez mais comum as crianças já irem para a escola com algumas noções de letramento influenciadas pelas imagens das mídias. Deste modo, o principal objetivo deste estudo foi pesquisar e analisar a formação dos professores da educação infantil do Município de Alagoa Grande-PB para o uso das tecnologias midiáticas. Realizouse uma pesquisa de campo, fundamentando-se através de um questionário apresentado aos educadores de uma instituição pública de educação infantil. Os resultados dessa investigação evidenciaram a deficiência de um planejamento voltado para o uso das TIC’s em sala de aula, a falta de preparo técnico-teórico e estrutural são alguns dos problemas encontrados, diante do cotidiano de alunos e professores no processo de ensino aprendizagem.

Published: February 2020

Este escrito objetiva traçar algumas nuances capazes de contribuir para a compreensão da ideia de socialização, com base na observação de algumas produções de Pierre Bourdieu. Entender socialização na produção desse notável sociólogo é um exercício complexo e importante. Demanda apreender a socialização como resultante da incorporação de um determinado habitus construído por uma multiplicidade de fatores. Desse modo, observar algumas noções como família e herança familiar, tempo e distância da necessidade, violência simbólica, illusio, desejo de aceitação e pertencimento contribuem enormente para a possibilidade de operacionalizar com esta categoria, uma vez que para Pierre Bourdieu, eles precisam indicar fortes relações com a pesquisa. Assim, este ensaio mostra que a socialização como um objeto relevante para o entendimento dos fenômenos sociais pode ser definida pelos fatores acima mencionados, quando inscritos nas práticas.
Kant, Bourdieu e o gosto: sobre a origem social da faculdade de julgamento
Authors: Rohling Marcos
Published: February 2020

O presente texto tem por fito apresentar os termos nos quais a crítica de Bourdieu a Kant é travada. Nesse sentido, em primeiro lugar, apresentar-se-ão a ideia de revolu- ção copernicana provocada por Bourdieu, bem como as categorias de habitus, capital e campo, essenciais na teoria sociológica bourdieusiana, muito embora, elas sejam cotejadas tal como o sociólogo as definiu em A Distinção. Na sequência, em segundo lugar, tratar-se-á da crítica que Bourdieu formula a Kant, cujo centro encontra-se na ideia de que o gosto puro é, antes de qualquer coisa, resultado de relações sociais as quais estão envolvidas em conflitos e lutas pelo poder no interior do campo. Finalmente, em terceiro lugar, arrolar-se-ão algumas críticas à crítica de Bourdieu a Kant. Em geral, entre essas críticas, formula-se a correspondência de que tal crítica, de alguma forma, (i) assemelha-se àquela que faz, desde a perspectiva da sociologia, à filosofia, e (ii) que, em muitos pontos, ela compartilha de elementos básicos com a crí- tica daqueles que são chamados de críticos da filosofia da consciência ou descrentradores do sujeito moderno.
An Ontology-Based Medical Information Management System for Electronic Claim Processing Systems
Authors: Kose Ilker
Published: February 2020

Background: Electronic claim processing (ECP) systems in healthcare insurance require comprehensive and secure management of medical information. Even though state of the art ECP systems can read payment rules written in plain-text, there are hundreds of rules (each including dozens of conditions) in a conventional ECP system. The conditions of the rules, in turn, refer to thousands of medical entities and concepts. Although domain experts can manage plain-text payment rules, the length and complexity of the rules yield low comprehensibility and in-rule and inter-rule consistencies. Hence, a more efficient and straightforward system is required. This study aims to make a claim management system medical data bank more efficient using ontology.
Method: We developed an ontology-based medical information management system (ONTMIMS) in healthcare insurance to simplify payment rules. 1,312 sets of diagnosis and health services were included in the ONTMIMS. The development of the ontology was compromised of four stages: i) specification and conceptualization; ii) formalization; iii) implementation; and iv) evaluation. Protégé and Apache Jena library tools were used to execute queries on the ontologies and the ONTMIMS was tested on an active ECP system.
Results: The experiments indicated that ONTMIMS increased comprehensibility rates for domain experts from 35.1% to 64.9%. Distinguishing in-rule inconsistencies increased from 65% to 82.5% and distinguishing inter-rule inconsistencies increased from 78.8% to 85%.
Conclusions: Ontology, as in many other studies, is very useful in representing and processing information. This is the first study applying ontology to ECP systems for health insurance institutions. The results demonstrate that applying ontology increased in-rule and inter-rule consistency and made rule sentences more comprehensible to domain experts.

Background: Pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma is a rare tumor of the lung. The clinicopathological characteristics of pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma are not well defined due to the low incidence. This study was performed to provide more supplementary clues for the identification and understanding of pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma.
Methods: We reviewed the medical records since January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2018. The patients’ medical records，including age at the time of diagnosis , gender, smoking history, preoperative evaluations, operative procedures, tumor location, tumor size, tumor stage, lymph node metastasis, pathological markers, prognosis and survival information were extracted and reviewed. Categorical variables were presented as parameters and percentages. A comparison was performed between patients with high and low grade of pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma.
Results: 20 patients were identified and the age span is from 18 to 67 year-old with the average age is 45. Mucoepidermoid carcinomas were commonly found in men（60%）. 80% patients had clinical presentations and the positive rate of tumor markers was 78%, although no specific tumor markers were found. TTF-1 were negative in all cases. ALK rearrangement was identified in a non-smoking woman with high grade pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma. Surgery is the main procedure. 3-year survival rate is 72% and 80% patients achieved disease-free alive. High-grade patients tend to harbor older age (p=0.035), larger tumor volume (p=0.026) and higher index of ki-67(p=0.0005).
Conclusions: Pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma could occur in a wide age span. Early diagnosis and complete surgical resection may promise a good prognosis. Grading is a key factor to predict the overall survival time. Combined TTF-1 and MAML2 will benefit the identification of pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma from other lung tumors. Future prospective randomized controlled trials and larger, multi-centric series are needed.

Background Nasogastric tube (NGT) insertion in anaesthetized and intubated patients can be challenging even for experienced anesthesiologists. Various techniques have been proposed to facilitate NGT insertion in these patients. This study aimed to compare the success rate and time required for NGT insertion between the GlideScope TM visualization and neck flexion with lateral neck pressure techniques. Methods This randomized clinical trial was performed at a teaching hospital on 86 adult patients undergoing abdominal surgery under relaxant general anaesthesia who required intraoperative NGT insertion. The patients were randomized into two groups, the GlideScope TM group (group G) and the neck flexion with lateral neck pressure group (group F). The success rate of first and second attempts, duration of insertion, and complications were recorded. Results The total success rate was 79.1% in Group G compared with 76.7% in Group F (P=1) The median time required for NGT insertion was significantly longer in Group G, for both first and second attempts (97 vs 42 seconds P<0.001) and (70 vs 48.5 seconds P=0.015), respectively. Complications were reported in 23 patients (53.5%) in group G and 13 patients (30.2%) in group F. Bleeding and kinking were the most common complications in both techniques. Conclusions Using GlideScope TM visualization to facilitate NGT insertion was comparable to neck flexion with lateral neck pressure technique in degree of success rate of insertion and complications were not statistically significant between groups, while neck flexion with lateral neck pressure technique was less time-consuming significantly both first and second attempts.

Background: Despite the well-known health consequences of cigarettes, many adults still smoke. VERVE® Blue Mint Discs (Discs) are innovative, chewable, non-dissolvable oral tobacco-derived nicotine products designed for adult smokers (AS) interested in alternatives to cigarettes. We assessed impact of using Discs on product use behavior and biomarkers of exposure (BOE) in AS. Methods: In this randomized, two-arm, parallel group study, AS (n=154) not planning to quit in the next 30 days were randomized to either a Control Group (n=62) that continued smoking their own brand cigarettes or Test Group (n=92) with the option to use Discs for four weeks under ad libitum conditions. Changes from Baseline to End of Study (EOS) between the Groups were analyzed for CPD and BOEs to select harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs) – nicotine, NNK, benzene and carbon monoxide. Results: Most AS (78%) in the Test Group reduced their CPD (~20% on average, p<0.05), some (~9.4%) reducing by 50-99% and a few (~2.4%) switched completely to Discs. The changes in CPD was biochemically confirmed with significant reductions in COHb (p<0.05). Percent changes in BOEs for nicotine, NNK and benzene tended to be lower in participants using Discs compared to the Control Group indicating lower exposure to HPHCs. Conclusions: Overall, our results suggest that many AS reduced their cigarette consumption, and some switched completely to Discs. Switching completely from cigarettes to Discs, if sustained over time, may offer an opportunity for smoking-related harm reduction. (238 words)
