There is a pressing need for sex education interventions that combat stigma and increase HIV knowledge and comfort in talking about sex among Canadian South Asians. A community-based research study in the Greater Toronto Area in Ontario, Canada assessed (1) the impact of fact-based versus story-based interventions on two outcomes: knowledge of HIV/STIs and HIV-related stigma; and (2) the potential of parasocial contact to reduce HIV-related stigma. This is a peer-facilitated, mixed method intervention involving a partnership between the Alliance for South Asian AIDS Prevention (ASAAP), an organization serving South Asian and Middle Eastern people living with and affected by HIV, knowledge users, and a team of academic researchers. Eight South Asian women peer leaders were trained to help carry out the interventions. A convenience sample of 78, ages 18–60 were recruited. Participants were randomly allocated to traditional fact sheets (n = 40), and stories (n = 38). Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was conducted to investigate the differences in the two outcome variables (HIV/STI knowledge and stigma) between the two study groups after the intervention controlling for differences in measures before the intervention. Adjusted mean for the HIV/STI knowledge after the intervention was significantly higher in the story-sharing group (M = 8.02, SE = .28) vs fact-based group (M = 7.13, SE = .27), F(1, 75) = 5.10, p = .027, with the small effect size, partial Π2 = .06. Similarly, a significant difference was found in the mean post-intervention stigma scores between the story-sharing group and the fact-based group, F(1, 41) = 5.03, p = .030, with moderate effect size, partial Π2 = .11. Specifically, the mean stigma scores in the story-sharing group (M = 45.75, SE = 2.72) were significantly lower than the fact-based group (M = 54.80, SE = 2.85). Story-based interventions facilitated through parasocial contact with peer leaders offer powerful potential across populations and showed promise by increasing HIV/STI knowledge, reducing HIV-related stigma, and fostering capacity building, agency and empowerment.
Risk, pleasure, intimacy, and seroadaptation: Examining correlates of barebacker identity in the age of biomedical HIV treatment and prevention
Authors: Marcus Natania , Gillis Joseph Roy
Published: March 2020

Barebacking has been defined as condomless anal intercourse (CLAI) in the presence of HIV risk among men who have sex with men. As HIV risk contexts are evolving due to advancements in biomedical HIV treatment and prevention, we need to examine previous assumptions about risk behaviour. The present study compares correlates of risk-taking, risk reduction and pleasure and intimacy among (n = 256) self-identified barebackers (barebacker group), men who engaged in condomless sex with partners of unknown or positive serostatus (CLAI group) and men reporting neither identity nor behaviour in Canada and the U.S (non-CLAI group). Barebacker identity was associated with sexual sensation-seeking, perceived benefits of barebacking, pleasure interference with condoms, chatting about barebacking online and use of seroadaptive strategies. Participants in the CLAI group used more seroadaptive strategies yet were higher in STI vulnerability. Condomless anal sex is likely a significant aspect of self-concept in barebackers. HIV-prevention efforts that focus on enhancing efficacy of seroadaptation is more appropriate for this population rather than promoting condom use.

Published: March 2020

We examined the prevalence of hypersexuality in two combined Canadian adult community samples totalling 1,857 respondents (female n = 960, male n = 835, other n = 60, missing n = 2). Participants were recruited from social media to complete an online sexual behaviour survey that included two measures of compulsive sexual behaviour disorder— the Sexual Compulsivity Scale (SCS) and Hypersexual Behaviour Inventory (HBI)—as well as sexual behaviour and interest items. Respondents also reported their total sexual outlets (TSO)—defined by number of orgasms experienced weekly—as a third potential indicator of hypersexuality. Canadian men and women reported multiple sexual outlets per week that tended to be higher than previous reports. Men tended to report a larger number and higher frequency of various sexual behaviour than women, including higher rates of compulsive sexual behaviour disorder, which varied depending on the measure employed. Implications for establishing sexuality norms and conceptualizing hypersexuality and compulsive sexual behaviour disorder are discussed.

Barragens de rejeitos são reservatórios feitos com o objetivo de reter água e resíduos sólidos resultantes da extração de minérios para que evite danos ambientais. No Brasil, existem centenas e apesar de toda tecnologia envolvida, rompimentos continuam acontecendo e trazendo enormes prejuízos ambientais e sociais para a população. Um exemplo recente é o caso da barragem do Córrego do Feijão, localizada no município de Brumadinho, em Minas Gerais, que no dia 25 de janeiro de 2019 desmoronou resultando em um enorme desastre industrial, humanitário e ambiental impactando diretamente todos os habitantes da cidade, trazendo um número grande de vítimas fatais, desaparecidos e desalojados, além de diversos animais mortos, solo e rios contaminados pelos rejeitos de minério. O rejeito de minério de ferro pode ser considerado uma matéria-prima, visto que se torna um produto sustável e que atende aos requisitos técnicos exigidos pelas normas brasileira e internacional. São diferentes em suas características fazendo com que altere sua função e antes de usá-lo como uma alternativa de reaproveitamento são necessários alguns estudos e testes de ensaio em amostras de materiais de construção para avaliar qual a melhor forma de utilizá-lo. Através de diversas pesquisas e experimentos foram descobertas formas de reuso desse material na construção civil, como por exemplo em blocos cerâmicos. Dessa forma, através desse artigo buscamos uma alternativa para a redução dos passivos ambientais representados por essas barragens de rejeito, diminuindo consideravelmente o volume a ser represado nas barragens. Dar uma destinação para esses rejeitos será uma solução ambiental bastante satisfatória entre outras.

An Update on Programmable CSF Shunt Valves: Identification, MR Imaging Safety and Potential Pitfalls
Authors: Costello J.E. , Rassner U.A.
Published: March 2020

Programmable shunt valves are commonly used devices for the treatment of hydrocephalus. Unlike fixed shunt valves, programmable devices allow the operator to alter the amount of CSF drainage without the need for shunt revision or valve replacement. With their increased use, many different
programmable shunt valves have been developed by various manufacturers; each programmable shunt valve has a distinct radiographic appearance and CSF drainage setting. Because of potential interactions with MR imaging scanners, which can alter programmable shunt valve function, understanding
and accurately reporting these devices is essential.Learning Objectives: Identify commonly used programmable shunt valves and understand their CSF drainage settings to enable the detection of device alterations after MR imaging scanning.
Know Your Notochord: A Pictorial Review of Notochord Remnants
Authors: Yao M.L. , Patel V.K. , Parnes G.J. , Slasky S.E.
Published: March 2020

Notochord formation begins between the third and fourth weeks of embryonic development. As the axial skeleton develops, the notochord regresses and eventually contributes to the formation of the nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disks. Notochord regression can be variable, especially
at the 2 poles of the skeleton, which results in the persistence of ectopic notochordal remnants. These remnants include benign entities (eg, ecchordosis physaliphora, benign notochordal cell tumor, Tornwaldt cyst, canalis basilaris medianus, fossa navicularis) or malignant lesions (eg, chordoma).
We present a review of these lesions, their clinical presentations, and their typical radiographic appearances. Notochord remnants may have overlapping features in terms of their location and appearance; however, differentiation is crucial because the proper treatment and management may differ
drastically. Familiarity with notochord development aids in understanding the characteristic locations of notochordal remnants. Noting the unique imaging findings of notochordal remnants can often help narrow the differential diagnoses.Learning Objective: To describe notochord development,
normal regression during fetal life, and notochord remnants that give rise to anatomic variants, including benign and malignant lesions.

Large-scale classification of shrub forest with remote sensing data

Information on shrub forest distribution and development is important for a range of forestry- and ecologically-related questions, but current and area-wide datasets have been characterized by limited availability. In this study, the mapping of shrub forests dominated by green alder, mountain pine and hazel for the canton of Grison was investigated, based on available nationwide remote sensing data. Satellite data from Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2, as well as a vegetation height and an elevation model were used. Training areas provided by the canton and supplemented by aerial imagery interpretation were used for a supervised classification with Random Forest, a decision tree-based machine learning algorithm. Independent validation of the results was carried out with data from the National Forest Inventory (NFI). Green alder and mountain pine forests were classified with high accuracy of 92.1% respectively 86.7%, whereas for hazel shrub forests, the internal model accuracy was only 66.7%. The resulting area expansion of the shrub forest was comparable with findings based on the NFI. A direct comparison with the NFI aerial imagery interpretation points revealed major discrepancies. The main reason for this is the different degree of spatial detail. However, NFI areas with a high percentage of shrubs were reliably classified as shrub forest. The method presented here underscores the potential of remote sensing data available throughout Switzerland for an essentially objective, costefficient and large-scale mapping of shrub forests with an accuracy applicable in practice.
Altersmischung als Herausforderung ‒ Zusammenhänge von Krippenqualität und der Altersspanne der Gruppe
Authors: Linberg Anja , Burghardt Lars
Published: March 2020

Die Entwicklung, welche Kinder in ihren ersten drei Lebensjahren vollziehen, ist enorm. Neben dem rasanten Gewinn an kognitiven und sozio-emotionalen Fähigkeiten, erlernen Kinder auch sich selbst fortzubewegen oder sprachlich mitzuteilen. Mit der Aufgabe diesen unterschiedlichen Fähigkeiten und damit Bedürfnissen innerhalb einer Gruppe gerecht zu werden, sind pädagogische Fachkräfte in Kinderkrippen täglich konfrontiert. Der Beitrag geht der Frage nach, ob die Altersmischung innerhalb der Krippengruppe (definiert als gleichzeitige Betreuung von Kindern mehrerer Jahrgänge mit einem Altersabstand von mindestens 12 Monaten) als Strukturmerkmal negative Zusammenhänge mit der beobachteten Prozessqualität aufweist. Weiter steht die Frage im Fokus, ob spezifische Anpassungen an die vorherrschende Altersmischung zu einer Abschwächung des vermuteten negativen Effekts führen können. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass mit zunehmender Altersspanne eine geringere Qualität zu verzeichnen ist. Ebenfalls zeigen sich moderierende Effekte von Anpassungsstrategien wie der Austausch mit Kolleginnen und Kollegen oder der Besuch von spezifischen Fortbildungen. Die Ergebnisse werden in den Forschungsstand eingebettet, diskutiert und praktische Implikationen abgeleitet.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the performance of the current national screening policy for Down syndrome (DS) in Iran and suggest a more efficient protocol with a wealth of a large series of first-trimester screening (FTS) data obtained from Nilou medical laboratory. To fulfill this aim, detection rate (DR), positive screening rate (PSR), false negative rate (FNR) and odds of being affected given a positive results (OAPR) were calculated at different cutoff risk. In the latest update of DS screening program in Iran, there is no place for intermediate group to be further investigated. Next, we proposed a novel parameter namely the ratio of fβ-hCG multiple of the median (MoM) value to PAPP-A MoM value to delicately categorize FTS results in a way that reduce FNR without imposing unnecessary anxious and extra money on most families. METHODS: The present investigation was conducted retrospectively on 197,210 pregnancies undergoing FTS for aneuploidies in Nilou medical laboratory, Tehran, Iran, from March 2015 to February 2016. RESULTS: Intermediate risk group is important as 23 out of 45 FN fell in the range 1:250 to 1:1100. By applying the proposed index, the ratio of fβ-hCG MoM to PAPP-A MoM and subsequent decision about NIPT, 8 out of 23 FN cases in intermediate group could be detected. CONCLUSION: Compared with the current policy, our novel proposed approach had better performance and could be applied by the Iran National Health Service to improve the screening program guideline.
“Choosing Wisely”: Apolipoprotein E Genetic Testing for the Diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease in Dementia Clinics
Authors: Yang Hyun Ju , Kang Na Ri , Jung Young Eun , Kim Moon Doo , Jeong Hyun Ghang , Lee Tae Jin , Han Ji Won , Kim Ki Woong , Park Joon Hyuk
Published: March 2020

Background:

Apolipoprotein E ( APOE) ɛ4 allele carriers have an increased risk of late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, in the “Choosing Wisely” campaign for avoiding unnecessary medical tests, treatments, and procedures, APOE genetic testing is not recommended as a predictive test for AD.

Objective:

The aim of this study was to investigate the potential value of APOE genetic testing in a specific clinical context.

Methods:

Subjects with poor performance in the Korean version of the Mini-Mental Status Examination for dementia screening (MMSE-DS) with a Z-score of less than –1.5 were recruited from the public health centers. All participants underwent APOE genetic testing. Family history of dementia (FHx) was confirmed if one or more first-degree relatives had dementia.

Results:

Among 349 subjects, 162 (46.4%) were diagnosed with AD. APOE ɛ4 allele carriers had a much higher risk of AD in the group with FHx than in the group without FHx (OR = 15.81, 95% CI = 2.74–91.21 versus OR = 1.82, 95% CI = 1.00–3.27, z = 2.293, p = 0.011). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for the APOE ɛ4 allele were 47.7%, 90.9%, 91.3%, and 46.5% in the group with FHx.

Conclusion:

It would be a wise choice to perform the APOE genetic testing for the diagnosis of AD in subjects with poor performance in a screening test and a family history of dementia.
Synaptic Activity and (Neuro)Inflammation in Alzheimer’s Disease: Could Exosomes be an Additional Link?
Authors: Counil Hermine , Krantic Slavica
Published: March 2020

Nanosized extracellular vesicles, known as exosomes, are produced by all cell types in mammalian organisms and have been recently involved in neurodegeneration. In the brain, both glia and neurons give rise to exosomes, which contribute to their intercellular communication. In addition, brain-derived exosomes have a remarkable property to cross the blood-brain-barrier bi-directionally. In this line, exosomes of central origin have been identified in peripheral circulation and already considered as putative blood biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Moreover, tentative use of exosomes as vehicle for the clearance of brain-born toxic proteins or, conversely, neuroprotective drug delivery, was also envisaged. However, little is known about the precise role of exosomes in the control and regulation of neuronal functions. Based on the presence of subunits of glutamate receptors in neuron-derived exosomes on one hand, and complement proteins in astrocyte-derived exosomes on the other hand, we hypothesize that exosomes may participate in the control of neuronal excitability via inflammatory-like mechanisms both at the central level and from the periphery. In this review, we will focus on AD and discuss the mechanisms by which exosomes of neuronal, glial, and/or peripheral origin could impact on neuronal excitability either directly or indirectly.

Published: March 2020

Background:

There is limited data on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers in sporadic amyloid-β (Aβ) cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA).

Objective:

To determine the profile of biomarkers relevant to neurodegenerative disease in the CSF of patients with CAA.

Methods:

We performed a detailed comparison of CSF markers, comparing patients with CAA, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and control (CS) participants, recruited from the Biomarkers and Outcomes in CAA (BOCAA) study, and a Specialist Cognitive Disorders Service.

Results:

We included 10 CAA, 20 AD, and 10 CS participants (mean age 68.6, 62.5, and 62.2 years, respectively). In unadjusted analyses, CAA patients had a distinctive CSF biomarker profile, with significantly lower ( p < 0.01) median concentrations of Aβ38, Aβ40, Aβ42, sAβPP α, and sAβPPβ. CAA patients had higher levels of neurofilament light (NFL) than the CS group ( p < 0.01), but there were no significant differences in CSF total tau, phospho-tau, soluble TREM2 (sTREM2), or neurogranin concentrations. AD patients had higher total tau, phospho-tau and neurogranin than CS and CAA groups. In age-adjusted analyses, differences for the CAA group remained for Aβ38, Aβ40, Aβ42, and sAβPPβ. Comparing CAA patients with amyloid-PET positive ( n = 5) and negative ( n = 5) scans, PET positive individuals had lower ( p < 0.05) concentrations of CSF Aβ42, and higher total tau, phospho-tau, NFL, and neurogranin concentrations, consistent with an “AD-like” profile.

Conclusion:

CAA has a characteristic biomarker profile, suggestive of a global, rather than selective, accumulation of amyloid species; we also provide evidence of different phenotypes according to amyloid-PET positivity. Further replication and validation of these preliminary findings in larger cohorts is needed.

Persentase angka kemiskinan di Indonesia secara garis besar mengalami penurunan, meskipun demikian terdapat beberapa provinsi yang mengalami peningkatan angka kemiskinan salah satunya adalah Provinsi Banten. Upaya pengentasan kemiskinan telah dijalankan oleh pemerintah selama ini namun dalam kenyataannya masih banyak program yang gagal mencapai sasaran. Salah satu penyebab kegagalan program pengentasan kemiskinan diantaranya adalah adanya penyeragaman kebijakan di tiap daerah tanpa memperhatikan terlebih dahulu bahwa terdapat karakteristik kemiskinan berbeda-beda pada setiap daerah. Pemetaan karakteristik kemiskinan perlu dilakukan agar dapat diketahui karakteristik apa saja yang mempengaruhi kemiskinan di setiap daerah sehingga dapat membantu pemerintah dalam penyesuaian bantuan. Dalam penelitian ini metode yang digunakan adalah multidimensional scaling. Adapun hasil yang diperoleh adalah untuk Kota Tangerang, Kota Tangerang selatan dan Kota Cilegon mempunyai kedekatan karakteristik X1, X2 dan X9 yang cukup tinggi, Kota Cilegon, Kabupaten Serang, Kota Serang dan Kabupaten Tangerang mempunyai kedekatan karakteristik X8 yang relatif tinggi, Karakter X10 menjadi karakteristik terdekat dari Kabupaten Pandeglang dan Kabupaten Lebak. Dengan nilai stress sebesar 11,4% dan R2 sebesar 0,988% menunjukkan peta analisis multidimensional dapat diterima.Kata kunci: Banten, kemiskinan, multidimensional scaling

Perusahaan asuransi merupakan salah satu perusahaan yang melindungi nasabahnya dari suatu kejadian yang tidak diinginkan di masa yang akan datang. Perusahaan asuransi jiwa harus menyiapkan dana cadangan manfaat untuk diberikan kepada nasabah, jika nasabah mengalami risiko kematian di masa yang akan datang. Oleh sebab itu, perusahaan asuransi harus mengelola dana cadangan manfaat agar perusahaan tidak mengalami kerugian. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menghitung besar premi bersih tahunan dan menghitung besar cadangan manfaat pada asuransi jiwa berjangka. Metode yang digunakan untuk menghitung nilai cadangan manfaat adalah metode retrospektif. Hasil perhitungan premi bersih tahunan menyatakan bahwa besar premi bersih tahunan untuk nasabah yang berusia lanjut lebih besar daripada nasabah yang berusia lebih muda untuk jangka waktu yang sama. Sedangkan nilai cadangan manfaat asuransi akan terus meningkat pada awal kontrak asuransi dimulai dan nilai cadangan asuransi akan terus menurun menuju nol pada akhir kontrak asuransi. Hal ini dikarenakan pada awal kontrak asuransi pendapatan perusahaan yang diperoleh dari pembayaran premi bersih tahunan akan lebih besar daripada jumlah manfaat yang harus dibayarkan.

Published: March 2020

Pengguna narkoba melalui jarum suntik menjadi komunitas yang rawan terinfeksi HIV/AIDS. Penggunaan jarum suntik secara bergantian di kalangan pengguna narkoba menjadi jalan dalam penyebaran virus. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memodelkan penyebaran HIV/AIDS di kalangan pengguna narkoba melalui media jarum suntik secara matematis. Model matematika yang dikonstruksi terdiri dari 2 populasi yaitu populasi pengguna narkoba dan populasi jarum suntik. Populasi pengguna narkoba dibagi menjadi 4 kompartemen yaitu populasi pengguna narkoba susceptible, exposed, infected dan AIDS sedangkan populasi jarum suntik dibagi menjadi 2 kompartemen yaitu populasi jarum suntik susceptible dan infected. Dari hasil analisis model diperoleh 2 titik kesetimbangan yaitu titik kesetimbangan bebas penyakit dan titik kesetimbangan endemik kemudian dilakukan analisis kestabilannya. Basic Reproduction Rasio sebagai ambang batas suatu wabah penyakit diperoleh dengan cara mencari nilai karakteristik terbesar dari polinom karakteristik Next Geration Matriks (NGM). Pada penelitian ini juga dilakukan simulasi numerik untuk melihat dinamika populasi pengguna narkoba dan populasi jarum suntik kemudian dilakukan analisis sensitivitas untuk menentukan parameter yang paling mempengaruhi penyebaran HIV/AIDS pada pengguna narkoba melalui jarum suntik.

Published: March 2020

Permasalahan sehari-hari dapat diterjemahkan kedalam bahasa matematika sehingga menghasilkan gambaran solusi yang akurat dan tervisualisasi dengan baik. Pengaturan arus lalu lintas jalan raya juga dapat digambarkan dalam bentuk graf sehingga didapatkan solusi optimal dari permasalahan lalu lintas yang sebenanya memiliki masalah yang kompleks. Tapi paling tidak, ketika arus lalu lintas tervisualisasikan dalam bentuk graf maka akan lebih mudah mencari solusinya. Seperti yang terjadi pada arus lalu lintas di perempatan Srengseng Kembangan Jakarta Barat yang termasuk wilayah dengan tingkat kemacetan lumayan karena merupakan jalan utama yang menghubungkan wilayah pinggiran Jakarta dengan Jakarta, menghubungkan Jakarta Barat dengan Jakarta Selatan dan Jakarta Pusat. Setelah pola graf dari perempatan Srengseng dibuat, selanjutnya dilakukan pengamatan arus lalu lintas sehingga didapatkan model pewarnaan simpul nya menghasilkan bilangan kromatik ðœ’(ðº)= 4 serta pewarnaan sisinya menghasilkan bilangan kromatik ðœ’(ðº)= 4 juga untuk lebih mengoptimalkan arus lalu lintas agar lebih lancar.
