Sharing clinical trial data can provide value to research participants and communities by accelerating the development of new knowledge and therapies as investigators merge data sets to conduct new analyses, reproduce published findings to raise standards for original research, and learn from the work of others to generate new research questions. Nonprofit funders, including disease advocacy and patient-focused organizations, play a pivotal role in the promotion and implementation of data sharing policies. Funders are uniquely positioned to promote and support a culture of data sharing by serving as trusted liaisons between potential research participants and investigators who wish to access these participants’ networks for clinical trial recruitment. In short, nonprofit funders can drive policies and influence research culture. The purpose of this paper is to detail a set of aspirational goals and forward thinking, collaborative data sharing solutions for nonprofit funders to fold into existing funding policies. The goals of this paper convey the complexity of the opportunities and challenges facing nonprofit funders and the appropriate prioritization of data sharing within their organizations and may serve as a starting point for a data sharing toolkit for nonprofit funders of clinical trials to provide the clarity of mission and mechanisms to enforce the data sharing practices their communities already expect are happening.
How Health Care Workers Wield Influence Through Twitter Hashtags: Retrospective Cross-sectional Study of the Gun Violence and COVID-19 Public Health Crises
Authors: Ojo Ayotomiwa , Guntuku Sharath Chandra , Zheng Margaret , Beidas Rinad S , Ranney Megan L
Published: December 2020

Background

Twitter has emerged as a novel way for physicians to share ideas and advocate for policy change. #ThisIsOurLane (firearm injury) and #GetUsPPE (COVID-19) are examples of nationwide health care–led Twitter campaigns that went viral. Health care–initiated Twitter hashtags regarding major public health topics have gained national attention, but their content has not been systematically examined.

Objective

We hypothesized that Twitter discourse on two epidemics (firearm injury and COVID-19) would differ between tweets with health care–initiated hashtags (#ThisIsOurLane and #GetUsPPE) versus those with non–health care–initiated hashtags (#GunViolence and #COVID19).

Methods

Using natural language processing, we compared content, affect, and authorship of a random 1% of tweets using #ThisIsOurLane (Nov 2018-Oct 2019) and #GetUsPPE (March-May 2020), compared to #GunViolence and #COVID19 tweets, respectively. We extracted the relative frequency of single words and phrases and created two sets of features: (1) an open-vocabulary feature set to create 50 data-driven–determined word clusters to evaluate the content of tweets; and (2) a closed-vocabulary feature for psycholinguistic categorization among case and comparator tweets. In accordance with conventional linguistic analysis, we used a P<.001, after adjusting for multiple comparisons using the Bonferroni correction, to identify potentially meaningful correlations between language features and outcomes.

Results

In total, 67% (n=4828) of #ThisIsOurLane tweets and 36.6% (n=7907) of #GetUsPPE tweets were authored by health care professionals, compared to 16% (n=1152) of #GunViolence and 9.8% (n=2117) of #COVID19 tweets. Tweets using #ThisIsOurLane and #GetUsPPE were more likely to contain health care–specific language; more language denoting positive emotions, affiliation, and group identity; and more action-oriented content compared to tweets with #GunViolence or #COVID19, respectively.

Conclusions

Tweets with health care–led hashtags expressed more positivity and more action-oriented language than the comparison hashtags. As social media is increasingly used for news discourse, public education, and grassroots organizing, the public health community can take advantage of social media’s broad reach to amplify truthful, actionable messages around public health issues.

Published: December 2020

La formación de recursos humanos para la salud (rhs) es una tarea conjunta de las instituciones educativas y de salud, para ello se requiere establecer los perfiles laborales, profesionales y de egreso de cada rhs. Como parte del desarrollo de la educación basada en competencias (ebc) se crearon las Entrustable Professional Activities (epa) naturalizadas en México como Actividades Profesionales Confiables (aproc), estas permiten operacionalizar las competencias y hacer más efectiva su implementación. En este artículo se presenta la propuesta de seis aproc generales, para la formación de rhs que pueden desarrollarse de manera gradual para que, al egreso, sean capaces de practicarlas de forma integral y confiable, también son interprofesionales y útiles para cualquier disciplina de la salud. La propuesta integra el proceso salud-enfermedad, la salud universal y la atención primaria de salud. Al utilizar las aproc generales como marco formativo, se podrían proponer acuerdos y prácticas intersectoriales e interdisciplinarias, esto implica un paso más allá de la ebc y plantea un cambio en el paradigma educativo que transformará la atención primaria de la salud (aps) de acuerdo con las metas regionales y las necesidades nacionales.
Cross-Cultural Social Skills of Turkish Students in Japan: Implications for Overcoming Academic and Social Difficulties During Cross-Cultural Transition
Authors: Sozen Ayse Ilgin
Published: December 2020

he present study examines the social skills of Turkish students during their cross-cultural transition to the academic and social cultures of Japan. One of the purposes of this study is to partially fill the gap in the literature by exploring and identifying Turkish students’ social skills during their stay in Japan. Another purpose of the study is to differentiate social skills, particularly used in educational settings – such as the classroom environment – from those exhibited in other contexts. This study also aims to provide universities with potential solutions to design better support and provide aid to Turkish students through their transition stages. A semi-structured interview was selected as the primary data collection tool for the present research. A total of 21 students from Turkey who were in higher education or had already obtained a degree from a university in Japan volunteered to participate in this study. Each interview transcript was individually examined via qualitative analysis, aiming to identify and categorize cross-cultural social skills. The analysis produced separate hierarchical levels of categories related to both the academic and social cultures of Japan. The findings revealed that Turkish students tend to use different types of social skills in different settings which are labelled “social skills specific to academic culture in Japan” and “culture-specific social skills.” Additionally, the cross-cultural social skills of Turkish students are classified in respect of their use (i.e., acquired skills, avoided skills, and maintained skills), based on a previous study.

Authors: Song Laichun , Gao Yang , Xu Ming , Wang Bo , Li Xiaoyong , Wang Xiao
Published: December 2020

Purpose. The optimal surgical strategy of aortic root in acute type A
aortic dissection (ATAAD) is controversial. The aim of this study was to
evaluate the feasibility and safety of “Sleeve” sinus Valsalva repair
for AAD limited to the non-coronary sinus or partial left and right
coronary sinus without involvement coronary artery ostia. Methods: From
Sep 2016 to Mar 2019, 20 patients with AAD involving non-coronary sinus
or partial left and right coronary sinus Valsalva underwent “Sleeve”
sinus Valsalva repair . Multi slice spiral computed tomography
angiography (MSCT) and three dimensional reconstruction were routinely
performed in all patients to assess the maximal diameters of each
segment of the aorta. Results. There was no early death in hospital and
one death during the 30-day postoperative period. Re-thoracotomy due to
bleeding was necessary in only 1 patient and no bleeding was related to
the proximal anastomosis. The post-operative drainage was 390.5±229.3mL.
During the following-up, the echocardiography showed the normal sinus of
Valsalva and aortic valvular function. The computed tomography
angiography showed normal aortic root without endovascular leak or
dissection around the sinus of Valsalva. All patients were free from
reoperation. Conclusions. “Sleeve” sinus Valsalva repair with Dacron
patch for aortic dissection limited to the non-coronary sinus or partial
left and right coronary sinus without involvement coronary artery ostia
was technically feasible and safe.
Drug Metabolism in Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Phenotyping ‘Cocktail’ Study
Authors: McNeill Richard , Zhang Mei , Epton Michael , Doogue Matthew
Published: December 2020

Aims To evaluate the effect of severe chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD) on drug metabolism by comparing the pharmacokinetics of
patients with severe COPD with healthy volunteers and using the modified
‘Inje’ drug cocktail. Methods This was a single-centre pharmacokinetic
study with 12 healthy participants and 7 participants with GOLD D COPD.
Midazolam 1 mg, dextromethorphan 30 mg, losartan 25 mg, omeprazole 20
mg, caffeine 130 mg, and paracetamol 1000 mg were simultaneously
administered and intensive pharmacokinetic sampling was conducted over 8
hours. Drug metabolism by CYP3A4, CYP2D6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP1A2,
UGT1A6 and UGT1A9 in participants with COPD were compared with
phenotypes in healthy controls. Results The oral clearance (95% CI) in
participants with COPD relative to controls was: midazolam 63%
(60-67%), dextromethorphan 72% (40-103%), losartan 53% (52-55%),
omeprazole 35% (31-39%), caffeine 52% (50-53%), and paracetamol 73%
(72-74%). There was a five-fold increase in AUC for omeprazole and
approximately two-fold increases for caffeine, losartan,
dextromethorphan, and midazolam. The AUC of paracetamol, which is mostly
glucuronidated, was increased by about 60%. Conclusion Severe COPD is
associated with a clinically significant reduction in drug clearance.
This may be greater for cytochrome P450 substrates than for
glucuronidated drugs. This supports reduced starting doses when
prescribing for patients with severe COPD.
Internal Control Quality and Bank Risk-Taking and Performance
Authors: Baugh Matthew , Ege Matthew S. , Yust Christopher G.
Published: December 2020

Using a sample of bank-years from 2005 to 2017, we examine the effect of internal control quality on future risk-taking and performance. We find that banks that disclose a material weakness in internal controls have higher risk-taking and worse performance in the future, including having a higher (lower) likelihood of experiencing large losses (gains). These findings suggest that weak controls increase (reduce) downside (upside) risk-taking or conversely that strong controls increase (reduce) upside (downside) risk-taking. Path analyses suggest that 22.3 to 43.7 percent of the effect of internal control quality on future performance is through risk-taking. Additionally, material weaknesses are negatively associated with total asset, loan, interest income, and non-interest income growth, suggesting that internal control quality affects both core and non-core activities of banks. Overall, results suggest that strong internal controls improve bank risk-taking, in part through asymmetrically reducing downside risk-taking while facilitating upside risk-taking, ultimately improving bank performance.

Transfer Pricing and Location of Intangibles—Spillover and Tax Avoidance through Profit Shifting
Authors: Reineke Rebecca , Weiskirchner-Merten Katrin
Published: December 2020

This study examines how spillovers affect a multinational company's choice of an intangible's location and the corresponding transfer price for using this intangible. Our model uses a company with a domestic division in a high-tax country and a foreign division in a low-tax country, where each division's activities generate spillovers on the other division's income. In contrast to previous studies, our analysis incorporates an intangible's optimal location when the company trades off tax minimization and efficient activities. By locating the intangible abroad, the company reduces its tax liability, whereas locating the intangible domestically yields more efficient domestic division activities. For a high spillover of the domestic division, the company locates the intangible domestically. Our model supports empirical evidence regarding intangibles' location that is interpreted as “home bias.” Additionally, we show how variations in regulatory parameters—arm's length range and tax rate differential—affect the divisions' activities and the intangible's location.

Evaluation of the bovine tendon decellularization method in the development of a cruciate ligament prosthesis
Authors: Gurin M. V. , Venediktov A. A.
Published: December 2020

Introduction. Ligaments play a critical role in the body, linking bones together. Ligament ruptures are the most common manifestations of serious musculoskeletal injuries. This is especially true for the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee joint. In trauma surgery, orthopedics, the ligament functional recovery can be achieved by using tissue autografting, synthetic and biological prostheses. Of great interest to surgeons is the use of prostheses made of biological tissues of animal origin, since they are easily available and, when high-quality processing is achieved, they are safe, retaining their natural structure and strength. Purpose of the study. To decellularize the bovine tendon according to our originally developed technique and to investigate its efficacy in terms of the presence of cellular elements and physical and mechanical parameters of the material. Material and methods. To manufacture the prototype of the ligament prosthesis product, we developed the technique for processing the bovine tendon, as the most similar material by structure, including its mechanical processing, chemical and physical processing methods and a special treatment with supercritical carbon dioxide fluid containing nonionic surfactant Tween-80 for decellularization and extraction of organic components in addition to collagen framework, while maintaining strength properties. Histological studies were performed to check for the residues of cellular elements, and the measurements of the physical and mechanical properties of the material were made. Results. Histological examination of the material showed that after processing, 0–2 cells in the field of view were found in the material. The strength properties of the material were 503 kgf/mm2 before processing and 605 kgf/mm2 after processing. Conclusion. The data obtained in the study confirmed that the processing performed qualitatively affected the elimination of cells, did not worsen but even increased the mechanical strength of the material. Further study of the biocompatible properties of the material is required.

Introduction: Bronchial asthma a common non-communicable disease affecting more than 300 million people world-wide. Compared to general population quality of sleep is poor in asthma patients due to various factors like poor control of asthma, co-morbidities like allergic rhinitis and oesophageal reflex disease but little is known about the potential role of obstructive sleep apnoea. Aims and objectives: This study was conducted is to evaluate the association between Asthma and risk of developing Obstructive Sleep Apnoea. Materials and methods: This was a prospective design study conducted on 137 patients of diagnosed bronchial asthma attending out-patient department of a referral chest from north India after ethical clearance. These patients underwent Berlin score assessment first and later level-1 polysomnography to evaluate for OSA. Results: prevalence of PSG documented OSA observed was 53.3% which is significantly higher than the general population and there was significant association with increasing age as 54.7% of patients were in middle aged population (40-60 years) and obesity with 67.1% patients having OSA with BMI >30 compared to 37.5% prevalence only with BMI <30, as well as with severity of asthma. Besides OSA was seen in 91.9% of Berlin high risk group patients, while it was found in only 21.3 % of Berlin low-risk group. Conclusion: prevalence of OSA in asthma patients is significantly higher as compared to general population and there is significant positive co-relation between severity of asthma, BMI, increasing age and higher Berlin score with the overall prevalence of OSA.
Preventing DNS misuse for Reflection/Amplification attacks with minimal computational overhead on the Internet
Authors: Hama Amin Rebeen Rebwar , Hassan Dana , Hussin Masnida
Published: December 2020

DNS reflection/amplification attacks are types of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks that take advantage of vulnerabilities in the Domain Name System (DNS) and use it as an attacking tool. This type of attack can quickly deplete the resources (i.e. computational and bandwidth) of the targeted system. Many defense mechanisms are proposed to mitigate the impact of this type of attack. However, these defense mechanisms are centralized-based and cannot deal with a distributed-based attack. Also, these defense mechanisms have a single point of deployment which leads to a lack of computational resources to handle an attack with a large magnitude. In this work, we presented a new distributed-based defense mechanism (DDM) to counter reflection/ amplification attacks. While operating, we calculated the CPU counters of the machines that we deployed our defense mechanism with which showed 19.9% computational improvement. On top of that, our defense mechanism showed that it can protect the attack path from exhaustion during reflection/amplification attacks without putting any significant traffic load on the network by eliminating every spoofed request from getting responses.

Authors: Abimanyu Christa Vidia Rana
Published: December 2020

Person in the elderly life phase will naturally experience a decrease in bodily functions either due to natural degenarive process or disease. The brain is one part of body that has decreased function. Previous study has shown that a strong decline in executive function can reduce the ability of the elderly to plan, organize, self control, and become aware of problems, which will affect the decrease in the capacity of the elderly to carry out daily activities. The good news is, other studies have shown that the decline in brain performance can actually be inhibited by proper protein intake. Instruments used for daily activities using ADLI and IADL; executive function was measured with the TMT A and B battery test, Digit Span, and Five Point Test which have been adapted to Indonesian; nutritional status using Waist:Hip Ratio; and Protein supply using 24-h Recall. The Mann-Whitney test Technique reveals that (1) there is no difference in executive function in urban and rural elderly; (2) there is no difference in protein intake among urban and rural elderly. However, it was found that (3) there was a significant difference between ADL in Urban and rural Elderly with Z = -2.083 (p=0.0037, < 0,05) and the ADL function of the elderly in the village was higher (M=12,5) than the function. ADL among the elderly in urban areas (M=7,5)

Atelopus balios es un sapo endémico de Ecuador, con categoría amenazada debido al cambio de cobertura vegetal y la polución ambiental. Se desconoce sobre sus poblaciones e interacciones ecológicas. El presente estudio da a conocer una línea base sobre el tamaño poblacional y algunos aspectos ecológicos. Durante octubre y noviembre de 2017, se estimó el tamaño poblacional de A. balios en una localidad de Naranjal, piedemonte de la cordillera occidental, Ecuador. Se realizó dos transectos lineales de 1000 metros en dos ríos de la región, donde se hizo dos muestreos diurnos de captura-recaptura por medio de encuentros visuales, y se utilizó la fotoidentificación para estimar el tamaño de la población. También se evaluó su tamaño corporal, estructura poblacional, uso de sustrato, su actividad, y su distribución vertical y horizontal. Obtuvimos 32 registros que corresponden a 29 individuos únicos (T1= 3 ind y T2= 26 ind). La proporción de machos/hembras fue de 8.6:1. En T1 no se pudo aplicar el estimador de población. En T2 se estimó 52.25±EE18.64 individuos. El 59.37% utiliza el sustrato de hoja, el 75% presentó actividad desplazándose al momento de la captura, su distribución vertical es entre 20 y 250 cm de alto, su distribución horizontal fue entre 20 y 1000 cm. Se desconoce sobre la presencia de quitridio, pero se considera importante diagnosticar su presencia y prevalencia. Aunque la abundancia en ambos transectos varía, se considera que las poblaciones son estables y su fluctuación es normal. Por lo que es importante realizar monitoreos.
¿Reinhold Vasters? Tres pinjantes de perrillo procedentes de la subasta del Joyero de la Virgen del Pilar (1870)
Authors: Naya Franco Carolina
Published: December 2020

Este trabajo aborda la polémica iniciada en 1990 desde el British Museum acerca de la legitimidad de tres pinjantes de perrillo de oro, esmaltados y aderezados con piedras preciosas, procedentes del Tesoro del Pilar de Zaragoza que, subastados públicamente en 1870, hoy se encuentran dispersos. Los tres pinjantes se han considerado por la historiografía falsificaciones realizadas hacia 1860; no obstante, la documentación de la Santa Capilla del Pilar demuestra que dos de ellos son genuinas obras del Renacimiento (ca. 1580-1600). Al menos dos falsificadores europeos copiaron piezas originales, lo que plantea la revisión de la historia de la orfebrería a partir de las obras que, con certeza, son legítimas.

iconografía del Juicio Final en las pinturas murales de la iglesia de San Miguel de Reoyo de Peñafiel (Valladolid)
Authors: Hernández San José Daniel
Published: December 2020

La iglesia de San Miguel de Reoyo de Peñafiel (Valladolid) conserva un ábside románico del siglo XII decorado con unas pinturas murales góticas muy deterioradas, ligadas al tema del Juicio Final. A través del estudio de su composición, iconografía, temática y estilo en su contexto artístico, planteamos una reconstrucción de su conjunto, y contemplamos la posibilidad de que su autor adaptara el tema para presentar a Cristo como juez y salvador, combinando influencias trecentistas y del gótico internacional. Proponemos una cronología aproximada del segundo cuarto del siglo XV, cuando Peñafiel fue ducado de los Infantes de Aragón.
convento de San Martiño de Vilalourente en Mondoñedo. La transformación moderna de un cenobio medieval
Authors: Gómez Darriba Javier
Published: December 2020

A finales del siglo XIV se fundó un convento de franciscanos terciarios a las afueras de la ciudad episcopal de Mondoñedo. Los frailes ejercieron durante siglos una importante labor pastoral en la urbe y en su valle. Pero paulatinamente el cenobio medieval se fue arruinando y en consecuencia se vieron obligados a abandonarlo puntualmente y a construir uno nuevo entre 1687 y 1725. En el presente trabajo analizaremos la labor sacerdotal de estos mendicantes, sus intentos por establecerse en el núcleo urbano, y daremos a conocer los arquitectos, maestros de obras y escultores que erigieron y exornaron el convento moderno.
Value of computed tomography in the preoperative evaluation to identify anatomical abnormalities of the middle ear in children with cholesteatoma: clinical case of lateral position of the sigmoid sinus

The lateral position of the sigmoid sinus is a significant indentation of its sulcus into the lateral wall of the skull, the sigmoid sinus is located lateral to the antrum. This anomaly is rare, occurs in 5–10%. Computerized tomography of temporal bones is performed for all patients with chronic middle ear disease. CT of the temporal bones visualizes in detail the anatomy of the temporal bone. Preoperative diagnosis of lateral position of the sigmoid sinus is very important and determines the choice of a surgical approach to the middle ear during surgery. Clinical observation of a child (14 years) with cholesteatoma of the middle ear is presented in this article. CT tomograms visualized lateral position of the sigmoid sinus. However, the lateral position of the sigmoid sinus was not taken into account when choosing the surgical approach. A transcortical approach to the middle ear was chosen in this clinical observation. Therefore, there was the inevitable and unreasonable denudation of the sigmoid sinus, the difficulty in performing an operation due to the risk of injury. In the reoperation, surgical approach to the middle ear was performed through the tympanic cavity. This avoided dangerous contact with the sigmoid sinus and effectively remove cholesteatoma.

Aim. To identify criteria for differential diagnosis between gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) and gastric leiomyoma (GLe) in contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT).

Material and methods. We retrospectively analyzed CECT data of 65 patients with GIST and 19 patients with GLe. All cases were histologically and immunohistochemically proved. We evaluated tumor size, contours, growth type, extraorgan extension, invasion into the surrounding tissues, tumor calcification/ulceration/necrosis and regional lymph node status.

Results. Among 84 patients divided into two groups (65 patients with GIST and 19 with GLe, respectively) we found that tumor localization, heterogeneous enhancement, and intratumoral necrosis may be utilized for differential diagnosis. The prognostic value significantly increased with the use of relative density ratio (tumor density/ aorta density or tumor density/portal vein density in the arterial, venous, and delayed phases, respectively) compared to tumor density alone. It was found that malignant GISTs are characterized by a higher relative density ratio than leiomyomas in the venous phase.

Conclusion. We developed a prognostic model for differential diagnosis between GIST and GLe with a sensitivity of 90.8% and specificity of 89.5%. We created an online calculator that preoperatively determines probable tumor type (http://medstatistic.ru/giso.html).

Published: December 2020

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the liver (EHEL) is a rare (1 case per 1 000,000 people) primary malignant neoplasm from the group of mesenchymal tumors. EHEL is the most aggressive representative of the hemangioendothelioma range with metastatic response and relapse rate, and therein is close to angiosarcoma.

The purpose of this publication is to summarize our own experience in comparison with published data and to describe a disease symptom that was not investigated before.

Materials and methods. We studied five cases of epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the liver, confirmed by histological examination. All patients underwent standard computer tomography with bolus contrast agent.

Results. The analysis of the images revealed typical for this pathology symptoms such as local retraction of the liver contour, a specific contrast pattern – “the lollipop sign”. We have revealed a new symptom: “the beading sign”, which was detected in four of five cases. In three of five cases, this symptom allowed us to determine the nature of the disease before histological examination.

Conclusion. EHEL is a difficult disease to diagnose due to its rare frequency and similarity to other focal liver lesions. In aspect of radiology, it is advisable to focus on specific symptoms of this pathology: retraction of the contour, “lollipop-sign” and “beading-sign”.

We present the very rare clinical case of a 54-year-old man who was diagnosed on CT and MRI with a mixed cystic-soft tissue pancreatic lesion with septa and calcification, looking like a malignant tumor of pancreas. The preoperative diagnosis was uncertain because of unclear features of the mass. This tumor from the body and tail of pancreas was excised by means of laparotomy. The final diagnosis of a complicated hydatid cyst was confirmed on morphological examination.

In designing Evaluation Capacity Building (ECB) programs in a country, it is vital to know the baseline situation. A necessary step is to reveal the status of current understanding and practices of evaluation. The objective of the paper is to explore the evaluation readiness of organizations in Turkey. Following the literature on organizational culture on evaluative inquiry, the study reports on the development and administration of a structured questionnaire with particular focus on various dimensions of organizational readiness for evaluation such as culture, leadership, resources and existing evaluation practices, if any. The survey sample includes 71 representatives of government agencies and, domestic and international NGOs in Turkey. Although evaluation is regarded and perceived as a tool for organizational learning and improved organizational performance, the culture, leadership and structure of the organizations do not show supporting characteristics on the implementation and use of evaluation in organizations. The results reveal a necessity of positioning evaluation as a major tool for efficient use of resources and organizational learning in Turkish organizations.
