Published: May 2018

Progress testing is an innovative formative assessment practice that has been found successful in many educational programs. In progress testing, one exam is given to students at regular intervals as they progress through a curriculum, allowing them to benchmark their increase in knowledge over time. The aim of this study was to assess the first two years of results of a progress testing system implemented in a Canadian dental school. This was the first time in North America a dental school had introduced progress testing. Each test form contains 200 multiple‐choice questions (MCQs) to assess the cognitive knowledge base that a competent dentist should have by the end of the program. All dental students are required to complete the test in three hours. In the first three administrations, three test forms with 86 common items were administered to all DMD students. The total of 383 MCQs spanning nine domains of cognitive knowledge in dentistry were distributed among these three test forms. Each student received a test form different from the previous one in the subsequent two semesters. In the fourth administration, 299 new questions were introduced to create two test forms sharing 101 questions. Each administration occurred at the beginning of a semester. All students received individualized reports comparing their performance with their class median in each of the domains. Aggregated results from each administration were provided to the faculty. Based on analysis of students’ responses to the common items in the first two administrations, progression in all domains was observed. Comparing equated results across the four administrations also showed progress. This experience suggests that introducing a progress testing assessment system for competency‐based dental education has many merits. Challenges and lessons learned with this assessment are discussed.

Authors: Lee Cliff , Kim Soo-Woo
Published: May 2018

The aim of this study was to assess whether a flipped classroom was an effective model for dental students to learn periodontal diagnosis and treatment planning (DTP). Participants were all third‐year students in three academic years (2015–17) at Harvard School of Dental Medicine: two groups that experienced the flipped classroom (Classes of 2017 and 2018), and a control group (Class of 2019) that received the same content in traditional lecture format. All three groups completed a DTP knowledge quiz before and after the educational experience; the flipped classroom groups also completed pre and post surveys of their opinions about flipped classrooms. The flipped classroom group received a 23‐minute video and corresponding PowerPoint presentation to view on their own time. In class, these students were divided into groups to diagnosis and treatment plan cases and discuss them with the instructor. Of 71 students in the two flipped classroom groups, 69 pre and post quizzes were returned (response rate 97%), and 61 pre and post surveys were returned (response rate 86%). Of 35 students in the lecture group, 34 completed pre and post quizzes (response rate 97%). The mean pre scores on the knowledge quiz in the flipped classroom groups and the conventional lecture group were 64% and 54%, respectively. After the DTP education, students’ quiz scores improved in all three groups, but only the difference in the flipped classroom groups was statistically significant (p<0.01). After the flipped classroom session, 84% of the students agreed or strongly agreed that this methodology was effective for learning periodontal DTP, and 90% agreed or strongly agreed they understood the fundamentals of periodontal DTP—both increases over their pre survey scores. Overall, this flipped classroom model was effective in educating students on periodontal DTP and was well received by the students.

Published: May 2018

Climate change is a widely accepted fact. Urbanization and industrialization are the main cause of climate change phenomena all around the world. One of the main problems of urbanization is the increase in the growing dependence on automobiles. The main modes of transportation even in the neighborhood area are private cars because it is the norm for urbanites to use motorized vehicles rather than walk. This shows that the planning and design of the neighborhood itself can influence the walkability of the housing area. This paper highlights the implication of walkability towards promoting sustainable urban neighborhood.

Can Watson for Oncology replace oncologists: A comparative study between Watson for Oncology and our multidisciplinary tumor board (Preprint)
Authors: Liu Chaoyuan , Liu Xianling , Wu Fang , Xie Mingxuan , Feng Yeqian , Hu Chunhong
Published: May 2018

BACKGROUND

Artificial intelligence（AI）is developing quickly in the medical field, which gives convenience to both medical staff and patients. The AI CDSS Watson for Oncology (WFO) is an outstanding representative of AI in medical field, it can give prompt treatment recommendations to cancer patients, just as an excellent oncologist. It is more and more widely used in China, but there is no report about whether it suits Chinese patients. Here we report a retrospective study about the consistency of WFO's recommendations and commendations of the same patient given by our multi-disciplinary team board（MDT） at our center on lung cancer patients’ treatment.

OBJECTIVE

Our objective was to explore practicability of the WFO to the lung cancer cases in China and how to make it more suitable for Chinese patients with lung cancer.

METHODS

We selected all the lung cancer patients who were hospitalized and received antitumor treatment in the 2nd Xiangya hospital cancer center for the first time from September to December in 2017. WFO gave treatment recommendations to all qualified cases. If our actual therapeutic regimen (which was given by our MDT) was “recommended” or “for consideration” in WFO, we thought it was of consistency, if it was “not recommended” or WFO didn’t have this option, we thought it was of no consistency. Blind second round reviews were made by our MDT to reassess the incongruent cases.

RESULTS

WFO didn’t support 18% of all the cases (n=182). Of the 149 cases (82%) supported, 66% were consistent with our MDT recommendations. Subgroup analysis showed that pathological type and staging had a significant effect on consistency (p=0.004, p=0, respectively). Age, gender, whether there was gene mutation or not had no effect on consistency. In 81% of the inconsistent cases, our MDT gave two treatments with Chinese characteristics , which were different from recommendations given by WFO but were also with excellent effect. If WFO can bring the two alternative treatments into the recommended or considered range, the overall consistency can be elevated from 66% to 93%.

CONCLUSIONS

In China, the majority of the treatment recommendations of WFO are consistent with the recommendation of the expert group, but there is still a relative high proportion of cases which are not supported by WFO. WFO cannot substitute our oncologists currently. As doctors’ assistant, it can improve the efficiency of our work, and it needs to learn local characteristics of patients to become a better assistant.

Published: May 2018

Perubahan tutupan dan penggunaan lahan di Kecamatan Kalitidu, Kabupaten Bojonegoro cukup signifikan khususnya untuk penggunaan lahan sawah. Suatu wilayah dikatakan berswasembada padi jika produksi berasnya lebih besar dibandingkan dengan angka konsumsi berasnya. Dalam penelitian ini dilakukan pemodelan spasial menggunakan metode jaringan saraf Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) dan Markov Chain (MC) yang terdapat dalam metode Land Change Modeler (LCM) pada perangkat lunak Idrisi. Pada pemodelan spasial tersebut digunakan variabel jalan sebagai faktor pendukung perubahan penggunaan lahan di tahun 2025. Hasil yang diperoleh dari pemodelan spasial tersebut yaitu besaran luasan sawah pada tahun 2025 dengan angka 4644.99 hektar dengan nilai akurasi 56.51%. Kemudian nilai tersebut dikalikan dengan angka produktifitas padi tahun 2015 dan angka konversi gabah kering giling (GKG) menghasilkan nilai produksi beras di tahun 2025 sebesar 95705.37 ton. Angka konsumsi beras tahun 2025 sebesar 4648.402 ton didapatkan dengan mengkalikan jumlah penduduk di tahun 2025 yang memiliki angka 52515 jiwa dengan angka rata-rata konsumsi per kapita per tahun yang berada di angka 88.52 kg. Dengan demikian Kecamatan Kalitidu di tahun 2025 mampu berswasembada padi.Changes in land cover and land use in Kalitidu District, Bojonegoro Regency are significant, especially for paddy land use.

The Journeys of the Heart of the Two Women in A Passage to India
Authors: Su Mingjing
Published: May 2018

A Passage to India is the magnum opus of E. M. Forster—a famous English novelist in the first half of 20th century. This essay does a comparative study about the different changing courses in the two heroines’ mind in India. Adela, one of them, tends to spiritualism from traditional English rationalism (materialism or literalism). While the other, Mrs. Moore, goes roughly from emotionalism to rationalism. However, there are two diverse outcomes: Adela builds her new mental scene finally, but Mrs. Moore fails to remodel herself after the collapse of her perceptual world. And the paper makes a deep analysis on the reason giving rise to such results. It is found, there are two main reasons. One is the different importance of the original values in their soul. The other one is the disparate conflict resolution styles when great changes happen in their inner heart.

The pKa values of twelve ?-hydroxy-?-arylalkanoic acids and ibuprofen were determined using a modified RP-HPLC method. The stationary phase was octadecyl modified (C-18) silica gel, and the mobile phases were mixtures of methanol and one of ten different buffers (60:40 volume ratio). The mean retention time of each compound was plotted against the pH of each of the ten used mobile phases. The inflection point of the obtained sigmoidal curve represents the s w pKa of a compound. Using s w pKa in previously established equations for the specific methanol/buffer mixture, the w w pKa values (in pure water) were calculated. The obtained w w pKa values for the synthesized compounds were in a range from 3.40 to 3.74, and the w w pKa for ibuprofen was 4.27. The Predicted pKa values for this type of compounds in the MarvinSketch 5.11.5. Program were in poor correlation with the experimental results, while in ACD/ /I-Labs pKa values were calculated as a wide range.
Beards that matter. Visual representations of Patriarch Ignatios in Byzantine art
Authors: Krsmanovic Bojana , Milanovic Ljubomir
Published: May 2018

The paper discusses twelve visual depictions that in all likelihood represent
St. Ignatios of Constantinople and were created between the ninth and the
thirteenth century. Most of these depictions show Patriarch Ignatios
beardless, which reflects the fact that he was a eunuch of the ????????
category. The paper analyzes two iconographical elements distinctive of his
portraits: beardlessness and youthful appearance. It concludes that, on the
one hand, the artists who painted the beardless portraits of Ignatios strove
to depict the saint as realistically as possible; while, on the other hand,
his beardless and youthful appearance also had a metaphorical meaning and
served to highlight the chastity and purity of the eunuch saint.
The Siena relic of St John the Baptist’s right arm
Authors: Popovic Danica
Published: May 2018

The paper takes a systematic approach to the hitherto unpublished relic of St
John the Baptist?s right arm which is kept in a cache in Siena cathedral. It
includes the available historical information about the relic?s journey from
Serbia until its arrival in Siena (1464) and the circumstances in which it
came into the possession of pope Pius II. It provides a detailed description
both of the relic and of the reliquary, an exquisite piece of medieval
goldsmithing and filigree work with few direct analogies. Particular
attention is devoted to the inscription on the reliquary lid: ?Right arm of
John the Forerunner, cover me, Sava the Serbian archbishop.? Based on the
inscription, the reliquary is identified as one of the founding objects of
the treasury of the monastery of Zica (the Serbian cathedral and coronation
church) which was gradually built up in the first decades of the thirteenth
century through the effort of Sava of Serbia. Discussed in the context of
this topic are also the ?veil? and the ?cushion?, the luxurious textiles in
which the Baptist?s arm was brought to Siena.
The synthronon and locus inferior (αρχιερατικός θρόνος) of the metropolitan of Pozega. Liturgical furniture and wall paintings of the Orahovica Monastery
Authors: Radujko Milan
Published: May 2018

The paper discusses the appearance of the synthronon, the position of the
locus inferior (????????????, or ?????????? ??????, the episcopal throne in
the nave, donje mesto) of the Metropolitan of Pozega at the Orahovica
Monastery, fresco paintings inspired by the purpose of the throne in front
of the sanctuary, and the views it incorporated. The synthronon is in fact a
series of niches. The locus inferior has not survived; based on the fresco
program, the author places it between the southwestern pillar and the
southern wall. The fresco decoration of the locus inferior - one of the
largest in Serbian art - is both centered on the topoi of the throne program
and unique. Christ and the apostles from the apostolic Deisis draw on the
teaching about Christ as the eternal leader of the liturgical community and
the apostolic roots of the church and the office of bishop; by emphasizing
the presence of St. Andronicus and St. Titus beside the seat, the program
incorporates the tradition of the apostolic lineage of the church among the
Slavs and in the Metropolitanate of Pozega.
Short-Term Outcomes for Veterans Receiving Basal Insulin, Metformin, and a Sulfonylurea Who Are Started on a Third Noninsulin Agent Versus Prandial Insulin
Authors: Santeusanio Andrew D. , Bowen Monica M.

Aims.

Despite numerous recent advances in the management of patients with type 2 diabetes, there remains a paucity of data to guide sequential treatment intensification.

Methods.

This was a single-center, retrospective cohort study of patients receiving metformin, basal insulin, and a sulfonylurea who were started on a third noninsulin agent or prandial insulin. The primary outcome for this study was change in A1C at 6 months after treatment intensification. Secondary outcomes included change in weight at 6 months, change in A1C at 1 year, percentage of patients achieving an A1C <7.5% at 1 year, documented episodes of hypoglycemia, and time to progression to prandial insulin.

Results.

A total of 62 patients were identified for inclusion in the study: 28 receiving prandial insulin and 34 treated with a noninsulin agent. There was no significant difference in A1C change between the two treatment arms at either 6 months (–0.53 vs. –0.84%, P = 0.31) or 1 year (–0.67 vs. –0.86%, P = 0.61) after intervention. Patients receiving noninsulin agents gained significantly less weight at 6 months (–2.09 vs. 1.99 kg, P <0.01) and experienced fewer annual episodes of hypoglycemia (1.0 vs. 2.6, P = 0.01). Among patients treated with noninsulin agents, those receiving a glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist were more likely to have an A1C <7.5% at 1 year than patients receiving a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor (50 vs. 13%, P = 0.05).

Conclusion.

These results highlight that, in select patients, noninsulin therapies can be added to a backbone of metformin, basal insulin, and a sulfonylurea with similar A1C reductions but improved metabolic parameters relative to intensive insulin therapy.
