Authors: Thompson John M. , Saini Vikram , Ashbaugh Alyssa G. , Miller Robert J. , Ordonez Alvaro A. , Ortines Roger V. , Wang Yu , Sterling Robert S. , Jain Sanjay K. , Miller Lloyd S.
Published: April 2017

Background:

The medical treatment of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) involves prolonged systemic antibiotic courses, often with suboptimal clinical outcomes including increased morbidity and health-care costs. Oral and intravenous monotherapies and combination antibiotic regimens were evaluated in a mouse model of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) PJI.

Methods:

Oral linezolid with or without oral rifampin, intravenous vancomycin with oral rifampin, intravenous daptomycin or ceftaroline with or without oral rifampin, oral doxycycline, or sham treatment were administered at human-exposure doses for 6 weeks in a mouse model of PJI. Bacterial burden was assessed by in vivo bioluminescent imaging and ex vivo counting of colony-forming units (CFUs), and reactive bone changes were evaluated with radiographs and micro-computed tomography (μCT) imaging.

Results:

Oral-only linezolid-rifampin and all intravenous antibiotic-rifampin combinations resulted in no recoverable bacteria and minimized reactive bone changes. Although oral linezolid was the most effective monotherapy, all oral and intravenous antibiotic monotherapies failed to clear infection or prevent reactive bone changes.

Conclusions:

Combination antibiotic-rifampin regimens, including oral-only linezolid-rifampin and the newer ceftaroline-rifampin combinations, were highly effective and more efficacious than monotherapies when used against a preclinical MRSA PJI.

Clinical Relevance:

This study provides important preclinical evidence to better optimize future antibiotic therapy against PJIs. In particular, the oral-only linezolid-rifampin option might reduce venous access complications and health-care costs.

ABSTRAK

Indonesia dikenal sebagai negara multikultural dengan keberagaman budaya yang dimilikinya.
Keberagaman tersebut terlihat dari perbedaan bahasa, etnis dan keyakinan agama. Situasi seperti
ini memang berpotensial bagi terjadinya konflik, karena masyarakat terbagai ke dalam kelompokkelompok
bersadarkan identitas kultural mereka. Namun sebenarnya di sisi yang lain, kemajemukan
budaya dengan identitas kultural yang dimiliki masing-masing etnis, merupakan kekayaan bangsa
yang sangat bernilai apalagi di tengah desakan budaya global. Identitas nasional adalah cara untuk
menyatukan keberagaman budaya.
A integração curricular no ensino fundamental e suas implicações para o currículo de formação de professore
Authors: Felício Helena Maria dos Santos , Alonso Luísa
Published: April 2017

O estudo apresenta uma análise sobre a integração curricular nos dispositivos legais que regem a Educação Básica Brasileira destinada aos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental, e as implicações destes dispositivos para o currículo de formação inicial de professores, destinado a esta etapa de escolarização. Fundamentados em Beane e Alonso, sobretudo em suas proposições acerca da integração curricular a análise realizou-se a partir de quatro categorias: Concepção alargada do currículo; Articulação do conhecimento de diferentes naturezas; Currículo enraizado no meio envolvente e Currículo como projeto educativo. O trabalho identifica que a integração curricular é preterida no processo de escolarização do ensino fundamental e aponta a necessidade desta mesma perspectiva curricular nortear a formação inicial dos professores, na convicção de que este modelo possibilita uma progressiva e consistente integração significativa de saberes, procedimentos e atitudes dotando os futuros professores de competências que orientem a prática profissional.
Formação contínua centrada na escola e desenvolvimento profissional docente: um estudo de caso
Authors: Mucharreira Pedro Ribeiro
Published: April 2017

O presente artigo apresenta resultados parciais de uma investigação em torno do papel da formação contínua, centrada na escola, no desenvolvimento profissional docente. A investigação decorreu numa escola privada nos arredores de Lisboa, em Portugal. O objetivo central foi o de analisar o papel da formação contínua de professores, centrada no contexto específico da escola que se constituiu como campo de estudo, no estabelecimento de uma comunidade de aprendizagem e promotora de desenvolvimento profissional docente. Em termos metodológicos recorreu-se a entrevistas semiestruturadas a 20 indivíduos que se consideraram informantes-chave, como professores, chefias de topo e intermédias, bem como formadores internos e externos. As principais conclusões da investigação apontam no sentido de um efetivo estabelecimento de uma comunidade de aprendizagem, que reflete na e sobre a prática, mas onde é relevado o tempo como principal constrangimento no âmbito da planificação e consequente implementação das ações de formação.
Nitric Oxide and Related Aspects Underlying Angina
Authors: Restini Carolina Baraldi Araujo , Gonçalves Leticia
Published: April 2017

Increased number of patients affected by metabolic syndrome (MS) has prompted the necessity of better understanding what is involved in such syndrome. Nevertheless, the establishment of promising therapies depends on the knowledge about the interaction of molecules within MS. In such context, Nitric Oxide (NO) emerges from a bulk of works relating its roles on aspects of MS, including cardiovascular diseases, their symptoms and comorbidities, which are thought to be triggered by similar sources. NO, nitric oxide synthase and enzymatic chains are keys for those disease and symptoms processes. NO has been separately described as part of hypertensive, ischemic and pain signaling. Although there are similar pathways likely shared for generating cardiovascular symptoms such angina, they are barely associated to NO in literature. The present review aims to clarify the patterns of NO alteration in metabolic syndrome directly concerned to cardiovascular symptoms, especially angina.
Development and Validation of the Short Multidimensional Well-Being Questionnaire (SMWQ)
Authors: Bigot Lucile , Garncarzyk Catherine , Gauthier Antoine , Quarck Gaelle , Dosseville Fabrice
Published: April 2017

Purpose:

Psychological well-being and health are closely linked at older ages. It is widely recognized that adapted regular physical exercise improves drastically both the physical and emotional well-being and allows older adults to stay healthy longer, with a better quality of life. In the framework of a European project (MOTION) to increase the life expectancy, independence and quality of life of older adults, the aim of the current research was to develop and validate a brief, multi-faceted, self-report measure of well-being in older adults.

Method:

The aim of Study 1 was to establish the factor structure of the newly developed measure using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). The aim of Study 2 was to replicate the measure's factor structure using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), and to evaluate test-retest reliability and convergent validity.

Results:

Analyses allowed generating a model of well-being comprising four dimensions: Perceived physical value, self-esteem and self-efficacy, socialization, and emotional reactions.

Conclusion:

The findings suggest that the SMWQ is appropriate for use with older adults and can help researchers and health professionals to assess the effects of APA programs.
Dental Faculty Accuracy When Using Diagnostic Codes: A Pilot Study
Authors: Sutton Jeanne C. , Fay Rose-Marie , Huynh Carolyn P. , Johnson Cleverick D. , Zhu Liang , Quock Ryan L.
Published: April 2017

The aim of this study was to examine the accuracy of dental faculty members’ utilization of diagnostic codes and resulting treatment planning based on radiographic interproximal tooth radiolucencies. In 2015, 50 full‐time and part‐time general dentistry faculty members at one U.S. dental school were shown a sequence of 15 bitewing radiographs; one interproximal radiolucency was highlighted on each bitewing. For each radiographic lesion, participants were asked to choose the most appropriate diagnostic code (from a concise list of five codes, corresponding to lesion progression to outer/inner halves of enamel and outer/middle/pulpal thirds of dentin), acute treatment (attempt to arrest/remineralize non‐invasively, operative intervention, or no treatment), and level of confidence in choices. Diagnostic and treatment choices of participants were compared to “gold standard” correct responses, as determined by expert radiology and operative faculty members, respectively. The majority of the participants selected the correct diagnostic code for lesions in the outer one‐third of dentin (p<0.0001) and the pulpal one‐third of dentin (p<0.0001). For lesions in the outer and inner halves of enamel and the middle one‐third of dentin, the correct rates were moderate. However, the majority of the participants chose correct treatments on all types of lesions (correct rate 63.6–100%). Faculty members’ confidence in their responses was generally high for all lesions, all above 90%. Diagnostic codes were appropriately assigned by participants for the very deepest lesions, but they were not assigned accurately for more incipient lesions (limited to enamel). Paradoxically, treatment choices were generally correct, regardless of diagnostic choices. Further calibration is needed to improve faculty use and teaching of diagnostic codes.

Authors: Lipp Mitchell J. , Cho Kiyoung , Kim Han Suk
Published: April 2017

Feedback can exert a powerful influence on learning and achievement although its effect varies. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of three types of feedback on dental students’ attitudes and confidence in a competency‐based course in predoctoral orthodontics at New York University College of Dentistry. In 2013–14, all 253 third‐year students in a course using test‐enhanced instructional methods received written feedback on formative assessments. The type of feedback varied across three groups: pass/fail grades (PF) N=77, emoticons (EM) N=90, or written comments (WC) N=86. At the end of the course, students completed surveys that included four statements addressing their attitudes toward course instruction and confidence in their abilities. The survey response rate ranged from 75% to 100% among groups. The lowest response rate (75%) was in the PF group. In attitudes toward course instruction and confidence in their abilities, the WC group trended to more positive responses than the other groups, while the PF group trended to negative responses. On two of the four statements, the trend for the WC group was significant (95% CI). In both statements concerning attitudes toward instruction, the PF group trended to negative responses that were significant (95% CI). These results support the effectiveness of descriptive written comments over pass/fail grades or emoticons in improving dental students’ confidence in their abilities and their attitudes toward instruction.

Percepción del personal docente de la Universidad Estatal a Distancia de Costa Rica respecto de la deshonestidad académica en estudiantes
Authors: Solano Gutiérrez Walter , Campos Céspedes Jensy
Published: April 2017

Se presentan los resultados de un estudio sobre la percepción del personal académico de la Universida Estatal a Distancia (UNED) de Costa Rica acerca de la deshonestidad académica (DA) en estudiantes. El estudio se basó en una encuesta aplicada a una muestra representativa del personal docente de la universidad.Entre las principales conclusiones del estudio se encontró que el personal académico considera como una de las causas de la DA por parte del estudiantado la inadecuada gestión del tiempo de estudio, la debilidad de aprendizajes básicos para realizar trabajos académicos y una visión pragmática del proceso de aprendizaje que privilegia la aprobación de los cursos sobre el desarrollo de aprendizaje significativos. Pese a que este trabaj es parte de una investigación más amplia en la que se incorpora el punto de vista del estudiantado e información extraída del análisis documental, grupos focales y entrevistas a profundidad, en este documento se expone, exclusivamente, los resultados obtenidos del componente de la investigación que consistió en la aplicación de un cuestionario al personal académico de la institución universitaria citada.

Evaluación de modelos de diseño instruccional: una revisión de literatura
Authors: Umaña Mata Ana Cristina
Published: April 2017

En este artículo se presenta la reseña de literatura, efectuada en relación con el tema de la evaluación de modelos de diseño instruccional. El trabajo surge previo a la realización de una investigación, cuyo objetivo fue “evaluar el modelo de diseño de cursos de la UNED, con el fin de identificar los componentes que generan retraso en el proceso de producción de materiales instruccionales y proponer modificaciones al modelo” (Umaña, 2012, p. 6).  En la investigación bibliográfica realizada, se concluye que la evaluación de los modelos es un interés reciente, dado que, generalmente han sido validados en su puesta en práctica. Sin embargo, posterior a su implementación, el componente evaluativo es dejado de lado; lo cual limita las posibilidades de realizar mejoras y cambios, antes de que el modelo entre en un proceso de caducidad.Se persigue, por tanto, un acercamiento teórico en relación con el tema y la discusión de aspectos fundamentales a considerar en la actualidad; teniendo en cuenta el creciente auge de los procesos de autoevaluación y acreditación educativa en las instituciones de educación superior.

Percepción docente del rendimiento académico de los estudiantes universitarios de la USAC Guatemala que trabajan y estudian
Authors: García Caal Edwin Rolando
Published: April 2017

Esta investigación exploró la percepción de los docentes en relación con el rendimiento académico de estudiantes universitarios que además son trabajadores asalariados. Los docentes entrevistados pertenecen a la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas, campus central de la Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala (USAC). Según se encontró en la literatura, para algunos autores la combinación “trabajar y estudiar en la universidad” tiene un efecto positivo en el rendimiento académico, así lo explican Caballero (2006) y Lillydahl (1990); en tanto que otros autores concluyen que dicha relación es negativa; tal como lo plantean Tyler (2003) y Paul (1982). Para validar una de estas dos posiciones, metodológicamente se realizaron las entrevistas a los docentes, y posteriormente se efectuaron observaciones estructuradas para profundizar en el contexto de las variables señaladas en las entrevistas. La mayoría de los entrevistados respondió que un trabajo asalariado es una de las causas que influencian negativamente el rendimiento académico universitario. Sin embargo, refirieron que ese efecto va precedido de “una baja calidad” de la educación preuniversitaria y dificultades en el acceso al campus.  Se propone contrarrestar dicho efecto ampliando la capacidad docente y como solución no académica mejorar el acceso físico al campus universitario; al mismo tiempo se descubrió la necesidad de lograr una mejor definición del rol del estudiante universitario, porque los docentes pretenden que la universidad se adapte a las capacidades de los estudiantes y no al contrario.
A Single Bout of High-Intensity Interval Training Reduces Awareness of Subsequent Hypoglycemia in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes
Authors: Rooijackers Hanne M. , Wiegers Evita C. , van der Graaf Marinette , Thijssen Dick H. , Kessels Roy P.C. , Tack Cees J. , de Galan Bastiaan E.
Published: April 2017

High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has gained increasing popularity in patients with diabetes. HIIT acutely increases plasma lactate levels. This may be important, since the administration of lactate during hypoglycemia suppresses symptoms and counterregulation while preserving cognitive function. We tested the hypothesis that, in the short term, HIIT reduces awareness of hypoglycemia and attenuates hypoglycemia-induced cognitive dysfunction. In a randomized crossover trial, patients with type 1 diabetes and normal awareness of hypoglycemia (NAH), patients with impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH), and healthy participants (n = 10 per group) underwent a hyperinsulinemic-hypoglycemic (2.6 mmol/L) clamp, either after a HIIT session or after seated rest. Compared with rest, HIIT reduced symptoms of hypoglycemia in patients with NAH but not in healthy participants or patients with IAH. HIIT attenuated hypoglycemia-induced cognitive dysfunction, which was mainly driven by changes in the NAH subgroup. HIIT suppressed cortisol and growth hormone responses, but not catecholamine responses to hypoglycemia. The present findings demonstrate that a single HIIT session rapidly reduces awareness of subsequent hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 diabetes and NAH, but does not in patients with IAH, and attenuates hypoglycemia-induced cognitive dysfunction. The role of exercise-induced lactate in mediating these effects, potentially serving as an alternative fuel for the brain, should be further explored.
Diabetes, Associated Clinical Spectrum, Long-term Prognosis, and Genotype/Phenotype Correlations in 201 Adult Patients With Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 1B (HNF1B) Molecular Defects
Authors: Dubois-Laforgue Danièle , Cornu Erika , Saint-Martin Cécile , Coste Joël , Bellanné-Chantelot Christine , Timsit José ,   for the Monogenic Diabetes Study Group of the Société Francophone du Diabète
Published: April 2017

OBJECTIVE

Molecular defects of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1B (HNF1B) are associated with a multiorgan disease, including diabetes (maturity-onset diabetes of the young 5) and kidney abnormalities. The HNF1B syndrome is related to HNF1B mutations or to a 17q12 deletion spanning 15 genes, including HNF1B. Here, we described HNF1B-related diabetes and associated phenotypes and assessed genotype/phenotype correlations at diagnosis and in the long-term.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

This multicenter retrospective cohort study included 201 patients, aged 18 years or older at follow-up, with HNF1B mutations (n = 101) or deletion (n = 100).

RESULTS

Diabetes was present in 159 patients. At diagnosis, clinical symptoms of diabetes were present in 67 of 144 patients and HNF1B renal disease in 64 of 102. Although responsiveness to sulfonylureas/repaglinide was observed in 29 of the 51 tested, 111 of 140 patients (79%) were treated with insulin at follow-up. Diabetic retinopathy and/or neuropathy were present in 46 of 114 patients. Renal cysts were present in 122 of 166 patients, chronic kidney disease stages 3–4 (CKD3–4) in 75 of 169 (44%), and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in 36 of 169 (21%). Compared with the patients with mutations, those with HNF1B deletion less often had CKD3–4/ESRD at diagnosis (11 of 43 vs. 27 of 35, P < 10−4) and in the long term (40 of 78 vs. 71 of 91, P = 0.0003). They were leaner and more frequently treated with insulin.

CONCLUSIONS

In patients with HNF1B syndrome, diabetes complications, cardiovascular risk factors, CKD3–4, and ESRD are highly prevalent. At diabetes diagnosis, the presence of morphological and/or functional kidney disease may help etiological diagnosis. Genotype/phenotype correlations may have implications for the care and the prognosis of these patients.

Temporal and Spatial Variation of Broadcasted Vocalizations Does not Reduce Lion Panthera leo Habituation

Estimating abundance of large carnivores is often challenging, yet important for their effective conservation. Attracting lions Panthera leo for visual enumeration using broadcasted vocalizations (i.e. call‐ins) is commonly used to estimate their abundance. However, call‐ins are typically not repeated at sites because of habituation. We evaluated lion response to repeated call‐ins varying temporally (1 or 2 weeks) and spatially (1 or 2 km) in Serengeti National Park (SNP), Tanzania, during February—April 2016. We established 30 call‐in sites: at 10 sites we used lion and spotted hyena Crocuta crocuta calls while alternating prey distress calls across five consecutive weeks; at 10 sites we alternated calls but conducted call‐ins once every two weeks; and at 10 sites we alternated calls weekly for five weeks but moved among three locations separated by 1 or 2 km each week. We used N‐mixture models to assess which sampling design would elicit greater lion detections across sessions and to estimate overall abundance. Lions habituated to broadcasted calls within each sampling design, with detectability point estimates overall declining across sessions. Estimated lion abundance at these 30 sites was 198 (95% credible interval = 186–214). Altering time interval and location of call‐ins was ineffective at reducing lion habituation. However, altering calls across sessions appeared to reduce lion habituation when compared to a previous survey in SNP that used the same calls across sessions. We recommend that call‐in surveys using repeated broadcasts are conducted at the same sites across sessions and use different calls to improve lion response and consequently, estimates of abundance.
