Reliably Mapping Clay Content Coregionalized with Electrical Conductivity
Authors: Reyes Javier , Wendroth Ole , Matocha Christopher , Zhu Junfeng , Ren Wei , Karathanasis A.D.
Published: March 2018

Core Ideas

Surface clay content was derived through a combination of clay measurements and a proximal sensor.

Apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) supported reliable clay content estimation.

Predictions of clay coregionalized with ECa performed well, even for one soil sample per two hectares.

Understanding the spatial variability of soil texture within field soils is important due to its influence on a large number of soil and plant related processes and for site‐specific application of inputs that are crucial to crop production. It remains a problem to obtain a reliable clay content map based on a limited number of sampling locations. The objective of this study was to identify spatial variability of soil clay content and the behavior of the estimation result for different spatial resolutions of measured clay content (0–20 cm depth) in combination with a coregionalization approach using apparent electrical conductivity (ECa). In a silty loam soil, soil clay content was measured at 96 points in a 50‐m by 50‐m grid within an agricultural field. ECa was measured using a contact sensor Veris 3150. Data were analyzed with ordinary kriging and cokriging while using ECa at a shallow depth. We analyzed different sampling scenarios based on clay subsamples of 48, 24, and 12 data points distributed over the 27‐ha field. In all scenarios investigated here, the RMSE stayed in the range of 3 to 4% by using different validations, with cokriging performing constantly better than ordinary kriging. Clay content maps estimated with cokriging maintained a satisfactory precision when the sampling density was reduced to one sample per two hectares, a result that leads to the conclusion that electrical conductivity in combination with spatial coregionalization demonstrated to be a promising tool to estimate the spatial variation of clay content even at a low clay sampling density.

Authors: Kürzinger Marie-Laure , Schück Stéphane , Texier Nathalie , Abdellaoui Redhouane , Faviez Carole , Pouget Julie , Zhang Ling , Tcherny-Lessenot Stéphanie , Lin Stephen , Juhaeri Juhaeri
Published: March 2018

BACKGROUND

While traditional signal detection methods in pharmacovigilance are based on spontaneous reports, the use of social media is emerging. The potential strength of Web-based data relies on their volume and real-time availability, allowing early detection of signals of disproportionate reporting (SDRs).

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed (1) to assess the consistency of SDRs detected from patients’ medical forums in France compared with those detected from the traditional reporting systems and (2) to assess the ability of SDRs in identifying earlier than the traditional reporting systems.

METHODS

Messages posted on patients’ forums between 2005 and 2015 were used. We retained 8 disproportionality definitions. Comparison of SDRs from the forums with SDRs detected in VigiBase was done by describing the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), accuracy, receiver operating characteristics curve, and the area under the curve (AUC). The time difference in months between the detection dates of SDRs from the forums and VigiBase was provided.

RESULTS

The comparison analysis showed that the sensitivity ranged from 29% to 50.6%, the specificity from 86.1% to 95.5%, the PPV from 51.2% to 75.4%, the NPV from 68.5% to 91.6%, and the accuracy from 68% to 87.7%. The AUC reached 0.85 when using the metric empirical Bayes geometric mean. Up to 38% (12/32) of the SDRs were detected earlier in the forums than that in VigiBase.

CONCLUSIONS

The specificity, PPV, and NPV were high. The overall performance was good, showing that data from medical forums may be a valuable source for signal detection. In total, up to 38% (12/32) of the SDRs could have been detected earlier, thus, ensuring the increased safety of patients. Further enhancements are needed to investigate the reliability and validation of patients’ medical forums worldwide, the extension of this analysis to all possible drugs or at least to a wider selection of drugs, as well as to further assess performance against established signals.
Older Adults’ Attitudes Toward Ambulatory Technology to Support Monitoring and Coaching of Healthy Behaviors: Qualitative Study (Preprint)
Authors: Cabrita Miriam , Tabak Monique , Vollenbroek-Hutten Miriam MR
Published: March 2018

BACKGROUND

Prevention of functional decline demands a holistic perspective of health management. Older adults are becoming avid users of technology; however, technology is not yet largely used in supporting self-management of health in daily life. Previous research suggests that the low adherence to these technologies is likely to be associated with the fact that opinions and wishes of the older population are not always taken into consideration when designing new technology.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this study was to investigate the attitudes of older adults living independently regarding technology to support healthy behaviors, addressing nutrition, physical and cognitive function, and well-being.

METHODS

In-depth semistructured interviews were performed with 12 older adults addressing 4 themes: (1) current practices in health management, (2) attitudes toward using technology to support health management, (3) wishes from technology, and (4) change in attitudes after actual use of technology. The fourth theme was investigated with a follow-up interview after participants had used a step counter, a smart scale, and a mobile app for 1 month. Data collected were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis.

RESULTS

Participants were active in self-managing their health and foresaw an added value on using technology to support them in adopting healthier behaviors in everyday life. Attitudes and wishes differed considerably per health domain, with cognitive function being the most sensitive topic. Fears from technology mentioned were attention theft, replacement of human touch, and disuse of existing abilities. Poststudy interviews suggest that attitudes toward technology improve after a short period of use.

CONCLUSIONS

Technology to support aging in place must target health literacy, allow personalization in the design but also in the use of the technology, and tackle existing fears concerning technology. Further research should investigate the effect of these strategies on the adherence to technology to be used in daily life. We outline a set of recommendations of interest to those involved in developing and implementing technology to support aging in place, focusing on acceptance, barriers, and ethical concerns.

BACKGROUND

Recently, many studies have been conducted to investigate the effects of exergames on the social well-being of older adults.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this paper is to synthesize existing studies and provide an overall picture on the social effects of exergames on older adults.

METHODS

A comprehensive literature search with inclusive criteria was conducted in major social science bibliographic databases. The characteristics of exergames, participants, methodology, as well as outcome measurements were extracted from the relevant studies included in the review. The bibliometric and altmetric outreach of the included studies were also investigated.

RESULTS

A total of 10 studies were included in the review, with 8 studies having used the Nintendo Wii platform. Most of the studies recruited healthy older adults from local communities or senior activity centers. Three groups of social-related outcomes have been identified, including emotion-related, behavior-related, and attitude-related outcomes. A metric analysis has shown that the emotion-related and behavior-related outcomes received high attention from both the academic community and social media platforms.

CONCLUSIONS

Overall, the majority of exergame studies demonstrated promising results for enhanced social well-being, such as reduction of loneliness, increased social connection, and positive attitudes towards others. The paper also provided implications for health care researchers and exergame designers.

Published: March 2018

BACKGROUND

About 5% of breast cancer cases are metastatic at diagnosis, and 20%-30% of localized breast cancer cases become secondarily metastatic. Patients frequently report many detrimental symptoms related to metastasis and treatments. The physical, biological, psychological, and clinical benefits of physical activity during treatment in patients with localized breast cancer have been demonstrated; however, limited literature exists regarding physical activity and physical activity behavior change in patients with metastatic breast cancer.

OBJECTIVE

The primary objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of a 6-month physical activity intervention with activity trackers in patients with metastatic breast cancer (the Advanced stage Breast cancer and Lifestyle Exercise, ABLE Trial). Secondary objectives are to examine the effects of physical activity on physical, psychological, anthropometrics, clinical, and biological parameters.

METHODS

We plan to conduct a single-center, single-arm trial with 60 patients who are newly diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. Patients will receive an unsupervised and personalized 6-month physical activity program that includes an activity tracker Nokia Go and is based on the physical activity recommendation. Patients will be encouraged to accumulate at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity. Baseline and 6-month assessments will include anthropometric measures, functional tests (eg, 6-minute walk test and upper and lower limb strength), blood draws, patient-reported surveys (eg, quality of life and fatigue), and clinical markers of tumor progression (eg, Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors criteria).

RESULTS

Data collection occurred between October 2016 and January 2018, and the results are expected in August 2018.

CONCLUSIONS

The ABLE Trial will be the first study to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of an unsupervised and personalized physical activity intervention performed under real-life conditions with activity trackers in patients with metastatic breast cancer.

Appropriateness of Hospital Admission for Emergency Department Patients with Bronchiolitis: Secondary Analysis (Preprint)
Authors: Luo Gang , Johnson Michael D , Nkoy Flory L , He Shan , Stone Bryan L
Published: March 2018

BACKGROUND

Bronchiolitis is the leading cause of hospitalization in children under 2 years of age. Each year in the United States, bronchiolitis results in 287,000 emergency department visits, 32%-40% of which end in hospitalization. Frequently, emergency department disposition decisions (to discharge or hospitalize) are made subjectively because of the lack of evidence and objective criteria for bronchiolitis management, leading to significant practice variation, wasted health care use, and suboptimal outcomes. At present, no operational definition of appropriate hospital admission for emergency department patients with bronchiolitis exists. Yet, such a definition is essential for assessing care quality and building a predictive model to guide and standardize disposition decisions. Our prior work provided a framework of such a definition using 2 concepts, one on safe versus unsafe discharge and another on necessary versus unnecessary hospitalization.

OBJECTIVE

The goal of this study was to determine the 2 threshold values used in the 2 concepts, with 1 value per concept.

METHODS

Using Intermountain Healthcare data from 2005-2014, we examined distributions of several relevant attributes of emergency department visits by children under 2 years of age for bronchiolitis. Via a data-driven approach, we determined the 2 threshold values.

RESULTS

We completed the first operational definition of appropriate hospital admission for emergency department patients with bronchiolitis. Appropriate hospital admissions include actual admissions with exposure to major medical interventions for more than 6 hours, as well as actual emergency department discharges, followed by an emergency department return within 12 hours ending in admission for bronchiolitis. Based on the definition, 0.96% (221/23,125) of the emergency department discharges were deemed unsafe. Moreover, 14.36% (432/3008) of the hospital admissions from the emergency department were deemed unnecessary.

CONCLUSIONS

Our operational definition can define the prediction target for building a predictive model to guide and improve emergency department disposition decisions for bronchiolitis in the future.

Published: March 2018

Declining of agricultural commodity prices during the harvest season has become detrimental to farmers. It often makes farmers not harvest their crops because the cost of harvesting is more expensive than the selling price of the product. The government makes a Warehouse Receipt System (WRS) program to help farmer to solve the cost of farm business and anticipation of low price of farmer income in harvest time. The goal of the research is to analyze and to describe regarding the potency and challenge of warehouse receipts system implementation in Niaga Mukti Cooperation, Cianjur. The method used was descriptive analysis with the subject of Niaga Mukti Cooperation as the sample of WRS for rice commodity. The result of the research shows that warehouse receipts system has potency to become collateral credit document to obtain farming budgeting for the member of Niaga Mukti cooperation with 6% per year or 1,5% per month after receiving government grant. In conducting WRS program, the cooperation confronts various challenges such as economic society empowerment through WRS, warehouse empowerment receipts as alternative finance, finance instruments and agricultural marketing. However, it requires coordination and correlation among the government, regions, farm cooperation, endeavor and finance institutions.
Do Financial Arrangement of the International Monetary Fund Has Impact on the Reduction of Government Spending, Evidence through Political Fiscal Cycles, the Case of Croatia
Authors: Rukavina Ivana
Published: March 2018

This paper examines the regulatory role of the IMF on government spending through political fiscal cycles. According to theoretical views, the fiscal policy in the pre-election period reflects an increase in government spending or budget expenditures; in postelection period, it takes a restrictive course by reducing spending. In the presence of a contractual agreement with the IMF, the theory points to limiting and reducing the magnitude of government spending in the pre-election period. According to the research results in Croatia, there is an increase in government spending in the election quarter, and its decrease in the quarter after the election. On the other hand, the contractual arrangements with the IMF show significant reductions in government spending. When a country is under a contractual obligation with the IMF, it reduced the government spending in the pre-election period in relation to the period when it is not under a contractual obligation.

Las agroempresas de bovinos lecheros en el país son muy heterogéneas, por lo que es necesario clasificarlas para su análisis y mejora adecuada. El objetivo del trabajo fue estratificar productores de lechería familiar de Los Altos de Jalisco que utilizaron el desarrollo tecnológico de asesoría y consultoría CHAPINGO-AGROPEC Star con la metodología propuesta por la FAO para identificar diferencias en las características productivas de agroempresas lecheras dentro de cada estrato. Los componentes de agrupación fueron: Escolaridad (ES), Superficie Equivalente de Riego (SER), Bovino Equivalente (BE) y Nivel Tecnológico; este último se desglosó en Índices de Calidad Genética (ICG), Manejo Alimenticio (IMA), Manejo Reproductivo (IMR), Manejo Sanitario (IMS) e Infraestructura y Equipo (IIE). Se identificaron dos tipos de productores: de transición (88 %) y empresariales (12 %). Los productores de transición tuvieron en promedio 87 BE, educación básica, y una SER de 12 ha; 67 % de ellos realizó inseminación artificial (IA) más monta, y la alimentación ofrecida a su ganado fue muy variada. Los empresariales tuvieron en promedio 190 BE, educación profesional y una SER de seis ha, 100 % aplicó IA, y se proporcionó alimento balanceado al ganado. La estratificación de las agroempresas fue apropiada y útil.

Dr. Nele Karajlic in the framework of the “Mew primitives”
Authors: Vuckovic Borislava
Published: March 2018

The ?New Primitives? is an alternative, and later, a cultural movement that
emerged in Sarajevo in the late 1970s and early 1980s; the movement
officially ceased to exist in 1987. The most substantial cultural capital of
the movement relates to ?Zabranjeno pusenje? (?No Smoking?) band and the
radio and television show Top lista nadrealista (Top List of Surrealists),
while the biggest individual cultural capital lies with Nenad Jankovic, a
phony doctor with the ?erotic? pseudonym of Dr. Nele Karajlic. The subject
matter of this article is the authorship and co-authorship of Dr. Nele
Karajlic within the ?No Smoking? band and the television show Top List of
Surrealists in the cultural space of the socialist Yugoslavia during the
1980s.
The early Prague spring: Analysing the re-establishment of modernist aspects according to the example of three piano concertos by the “Prague group” of composers
Authors: Golubovic Marija , Komatovic Nikola
Published: March 2018

The interwar period brought about a number of modernist tendencies in the
heterogeneous cultural context of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, which is
particularly salient in the works of the young composers belonging to the
so-called ?Prague group.? Having completed their studies, dozens of
composers and conductors, including Ljubica Maric (1909-2003), Stanojlo
Rajicic (1910-2000) and Milan Ristic (1908-1982) contributed to the
establishment of the new movement in the conservative milieu of interwar
Belgrade. After World War II, socialist realism became, in effect, the only
approved style for the artists of the period. However, only a decade after
the Tito-Stalin split, modernist tendencies reappeared fullblown in the
output of Yugoslav composers. It is therefore of the greatest interest to
analyse and present the way in which modernist music managed to find its way
back to Yugoslav composers, performers and audiences in such a short period
of time (the 1950s). To do so, we have chosen three piano concertos, written
at the very beginning, in the middle, and at the very end of this period.
This overview would not have been possible if we had analysed works
belonging to other genres, as most had already been established in the
pre-war period. However, it is also safe to conclude that the limitations on
the Yugoslav scene were not imposed only by political authorities, but also
by the conservative tastes of its audience and society, which were already
in place before WWII.
Ivan Jevtic’s musical universe at a crossroads of traditional and new music expression. Tendencies of changes on the example of selected works of the concert genre
Authors: Nikolic Olivera
Published: March 2018

Our interest in the position and significance of the concert music of Ivan
Jevtic in the development of this genre in the Serbian music of the second
half of the 20th century is based on several facts. Judging from the number
of concerts and the variety of their stylistic, aesthetic, technical,
expressive and historical qualities, Jevtic comes across as a composer who
was the pioneer of several particular and general tendencies in the
development of Serbian concert music, especially when we have the following
in mind: his relationship to the musical heritage; his aspirations to master
new contemporary tendencies; the time of general stylistic turmoil;
compositional techniques etc. The comparative analysis of three concerts:
Concerto for Tuba, Cello Symphony and Concerto for Viola points to the basic
elements of traditional heritage, his reshaping of this heritage, as well as
the elements of modern musical expression in the works of this composer. The
analyzed paths of a part of his entire oeuvre do not exemplify the complete
development of the concert genre in the Serbian music of the second half of
the 20th century but, alongside with other important aspects such as
historical, aesthetic, technical etc. they assist us in a better
understanding of the tendencies in the development of this genre in Serbia,
but also of the tendencies in Serbian music after 1945.
Influence of Surface Treatment on Composite Adhesion in Noncarious Cervical Lesions: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Published: March 2018

The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of dentin surface treatments on the retention rate of resin composite restorations in non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs). Seven randomized clinical trials were included in this review. Data regarding retention rate, type of surface treatment, and the main characteristics of studies were analyzed. Two reviewers performed a literature search up to December 2016 in eight databases: PubMed (Medline), Lilacs, Ibecs, Web of Science, BBO, Scopus, Scielo and The Cochrane Library. Only clinical trials evaluating dentin surface treatments in resin composite restoration in NCCLs were included. Noncontrolled clinical trials, reviews, editorial letters, case reports, case series and studies published in a language other than English, Portuguese, or Spanish were not included. The included studies evaluated different surface treatments, such as using an adhesive system with a frictional technique, drying the dentin, and removing sclerotic dentin by using a bur and applying EDTA before primer use. The analysis considering the mechanical removal of dentin surface with a bur and the application of an adhesive system in a frictional mode showed these treatments improved retention rates of the resin composite restorations in NCCLs (p<0.05). There is evidence in the literature suggesting that the mechanical removal of dentin surface with a bur and the application of an adhesive system in a frictional mode could improve the retention rates of resin composite restorations in NCCLs. However, the studies showed high heterogeneity, and additional clinical trials are needed to determine the best dentin treatment option in NCCLs.
Efficacy of Modern Light Curing Units in Polymerizing Peripheral Zones in Simulated Large Bulk-fill Resin-composite Fillings
Authors: Ilie N , Luca BI
Published: March 2018

The variation in micro-hardness (HV) within simulated large cavities (10 × 6 mm) filled in one increment with three bulk-fill resin-based composites (BF-RBC) was assessed by means of a universal hardness device. Modern blue and violet-blue light curing units (LCUs) were applied in three different positions, by rotating the LCU in 120° steps. The exposure distance was 3 mm. One center and two peripheral (4-mm apart from the center) HV line profiles were measured in 0.5-mm steps at 24 hours postpolymerization to calculate the depth of cure (DOC). Incident light, irradiance, and spectral distribution were recorded. A multivariate analysis (general linear model) assessed the effect of the varied parameters as well as their interaction terms on HV and DOC. The effect of LCU rotation was not significant (p=0.109). The DOC varied between 3.46 mm and 5.50 mm and was more strongly influenced by the BF-RBC (p<0.001, ηP2=0.774), followed by the width of specimen (p<0.001, ηP2=0.554), while the influence of the LCU was very low (p<0.06, ηP2=0.070). Whether a BF-RBC filling is cured as well in the periphery as in the center depends more on the material than on the curing unit used.
