Employing Student Ambassadors to Enhance Mathematics Support Provision
Authors: Voake-Jones Cheryl
Published: July 2017

The Mathematics Resources Centre (MASH) at the University of Bath received funding from the Thriplow Charitable Trust to provide employment opportunities to vocational entry students.  We have used this funding to enhance the support provision for students who have difficulties with the mathematical content of their course. Ideas were given to the students as to what support provision enhancement may look like, but ultimately it was left up to them to determine the most appropriate focus of any additional support.  In this article, the approaches taken, the changes made and the results achieved to date are presented.
Improving retention for all students, studying mathematics as part of their chosen qualification, by using a voluntary diagnostic quiz
Authors: Calvert Carol , Hilliam Rachel , Coleman Juliet
Published: July 2017

This case study demonstrates the issues and advantages in encouraging students to take responsibility for their learning and to be better prepared both in terms of knowledge and expectations for their study. The study outlines the improvement in retention achieved when students were encouraged to use a voluntary diagnostic quiz on a first year University mathematics module.  Initially the power of the diagnostic quiz, in predicting future success on the module, was identified using predictive analytics. Students were contacted by experienced Education Guidance staff who encouraged them to take the quiz prior to course start with the aim of using their results to steer them to start on the “right” course.  The diagnostic quiz total score was made available to the student’s course tutor prior to course start to enable further tailoring of support to individual students. Early indications show an improvement in early in module retention.  The module in this case study was for distance learning students on an open access mathematics course.
Peer Assisted Study Support (PASS) and Students as Change Agents (SACA) in Mathematics at the University of Nottingham
Authors: Cox Stephen , Cook Laurence , Nield Sam
Published: July 2017

In 2015-16, a Peer Assisted Study Support (PASS) scheme was introduced in Mathematics at the University of Nottingham.  This PASS scheme is intimately linked to the University’s Nottingham Advantage Award (NAA) scheme, which recognises a wide range of students’ extracurricular activities, including serving as a PASS Leader.  Furthermore, the PASS scheme has been developed in conjunction with the NAA’s Students as Change Agents and Change Leaders (SACA and SACL) programmes, which recognise student-staff partnerships that change teaching and learning practice.  Essential to the success of the scheme has been its genesis through a student-staff partnership, in particular two summer internships in 2015 to develop PASS materials, supported by the Sigma Network and the University’s Teaching Transformation Programme.
Nasilenie osobowościowych przejawów schizotypii wśród osób zdrowych a wartościowanie siebie i świata w kontekście zdrowia psychicznego. Próba walidacji skróconej skali schizotypii Oxford–Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experiences w warunkach polskich
Authors: Starkowska Anna , Adamowicz Katarzyna , Kaleta Tytus , Mak Monika
Published: July 2017

Wstęp: Przedmiotem badania były przejawy schizotypii – rozumiane jako cechy osobowości ludzi zdrowych – oraz ich związek z samooceną i pozytywnym nastawieniem do życia. Celem praktycznym była próba walidacji skróconej skali schizotypii Oxford–Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experiences (O-LIFE).Materiały i metody: W badaniu kwestionariuszowym na grupie 70 kobiet i mężczyzn wykorzystano przetłumaczoną z języka angielskiego skróconą wersję O-LIFE. W uprzednim badaniu pilotażowym (n = 202) na zdrowych osobach w wieku 19–88 lat analiza rzetelności wykazała bardzo satysfakcjonującą dokładność pomiaru ogólnej skali schizotypii (α = 0,82) oraz wahającą się od niskiej po wysoką rzetelność wyników czynnikowych. Badania nad adaptacją skali O-LIFE do warunków populacji polskiej obecnie kontynuowane są w Katedrze Psychiatrii Pomorskiego Uniwersytetu Medycznego w Szczecinie.Wyniki: Wykazano ujemne związki pomiędzy samooceną i orientacją pozytywną a wszystkimi miarami cech schizotypowych, zwłaszcza w odniesieniu do wyniku ogólnego (r = −0,518) oraz do wymiaru dezorganizacji poznawczej (r = −0,531). Niższe poczucie własnej wartości i negatywne nastawienie do otoczenia współwystępowały z większym nasileniem osobowościowych przejawów schizotypii, które w sytuacji psychicznego przeciążenia mogą predysponować do rozwinięcia schizotypowych zaburzeń osobowości czy schizofrenii.Wnioski: Mieszczące się w granicach zdrowia psychicznego przejawy cech schizotypowych powiązane są z obniżoną samooceną, większym pesymizmem i niższą oceną zadowolenia z życia. Obniżając poczucie dobrostanu psychofizycznego, stanowią czynnik ryzyka różnych problemów psychicznych, zwłaszcza z kręgu psychoz. Dodatkowo wskazano na użyteczność polskojęzycznej wersji skróconej skali O-LIFE, zwłaszcza w badaniach ilościowych, i nakreślono dalsze możliwości badań.

Published: July 2017

Multidimensinis mikčiojimo modelis padeda paaiškinti įvairių veiksnių sąveiką, lemiančią individualius mikčiojimo požymius. Dažnai mikčiojimas vertinamas tik kaip sklandaus kalbėjimo sutrikimas – neatsižvelgiama į kitus multidimensinio modelio komponentus ir jų struktūrą. Išsamus vaiko mikčiojimo vertinimas padeda numatyti mikčiojimo įveikimo strategijas ir pagalbos būdus. Skirtingas mokslininkų požiūris lėmė įvairias mikčiojimo sampratas: psichogeninį, neurogeninį, išmokto elgesio mikčiojimo apibūdinimą, kalbėtojo požiūriu grindžiamą šio sutrikimo paaiškinimą. Tyrimo tikslas – atskleisti konceptualų, multidimensinį mikčiojimo modelį, siekiant įvertinti ir įveikti ikimokyklinio amžiaus vaikų mikčiojimą. Tyrimo rezultatai parodė, kad multidimensinis požiūris į mikčiojimo įvertinimą ir įveikimą atitinka KELMS (kognityvinį, emocinį, lingvistinį, motorinį, socialinį) modelį, apima lengvai ir sunkiai mikčiojančių asmenų mokymą, taikant sklandaus kalbėjimo ugdymo ir mikčiojimo modifikavimo strategijų elementus. Multidimensinis mikčiojimo modelis yra naudingas planuojant ir teikiant pagalbą mikčiojantiems ikimokyklinio amžiaus vaikams.

Kinijos liaudies banko pinigų politikos poveikis akcijų rinkos grąžai
Authors: Kažytė Agnė , Valukonis Mantas
Published: July 2017

Išsivysčiusiose šalyse tarp centrinių bankų reguliuojamų palūkanų normų ir akcijų rinkų dažniausiai egzistuoja neigiamas ir statistiškai reikšmingas ryšys. Tačiau šis ryšys gali pasikeisti ne tik nuo taikomų skirtingų pinigų politikos priemonių, rinkoje vyraujančių nuotaikų ar kitų veiksnių, bet ir nuo skirtingo šalių išsivystymo lygio. Siekiant nustatyti, ar Kinijos akcijų rinka teigiamai reaguoja priimant skatinamosios politikos sprendimus, o neigiamai – vykdant griežtinamąją pinigų politiką, buvo analizuojamas 2007–2016 metų laikotarpis ir taikomas įvykio analizės metodas. Tyrimo metu gauti rezultatai atskleidė, kad palūkanų normų didinimo ir privalomųjų rezervų mažinimo atvejais Kinijos akcijų rinka nereaguoja kaip išsivysčiusi rinka. Tačiau palūkanų normų mažinimo ir ypač privalomųjų rezervų didinimo metu Kinijos akcijų rinkai gali būti pritaikytas išsivysčiusių rinkų pavyzdys.

Enhancement of Seedling Emergence in Sweet Corn by Marker‐Assisted Backcrossing of Beneficial QTL
Authors: Yousef Gad G. , Juvik John A.
Published: July 2017

Seedling emergence is an important trait that can limit commercialization of sweet corn hybrids. This study was designed to test what effect beneficial QTL alleles that enhance seedling emergence exert when introgressed, using marker‐assisted backcrossing, into sweet corn commercial germplasm. Three RFLP marker alleles linked to QTL that enhanced seedling emergence were identified in an F2:3 sweet corn mapping population. A recombinant inbred line (RIL, F8) derived from this population was used as a donor parent to backcross the marker‐QTL alleles into three elite commercial sweet corn inbreds. Plants in the three segregating BC2 populations were crossed to the non‐recurrent commercial inbreds to produce three BC2F1 populations with families either segregating or lacking the marker donor allele(s). These three populations were evaluated for seedling emergence under field conditions in two successive years. Across the three populations, BC2F1 families segregating for the donor QTL allele linked to the marker umc139 (on chromosome 2), bnl9.08 (on chromosome 8), or php200689 (on chromosome 1) displayed 40.8, 30.2, and 28.2% increases in seedling emergence, respectively, over the unmodified F1s. The introgressed QTL alleles were observed to enhance seedling emergence in the BC2F1 generation as was observed in the original F2:3 mapping population. Marker‐QTL associated effects were reproducible across generations and populations indicating that QTL identified in one population can exert similar effects in different genetic backgrounds. Results suggest that using DNA marker technology can help to identify and introgress beneficial QTL alleles, shortening the time and resources required to develop improved germplasm.

Standardization of DNA Residual Quantification Method of Vero Cell Rabies Vaccine for Human Use
Authors: Palacios Janeth del Carmen Arias , Barreto Carlos Alberto Barrero , Lara José Salvador Montaña , Navas Ángela María Londoño
Published: July 2017

Objectives:

Normalize the quantification of residual DNA from Vero cells in the rabies vaccine for use in human VAHV I, by quantitative PCR in real time and the design of primers that amplified, highly repetitive sequences of Cercopithecus aethiops and a constitutive gene according to sequences reported in the GenBank and quantifying the residual DNA in the vaccine VAHV I in three consecutive batches according to the standard set by the World Health Organization.

Methods:

A real time quantitative method based on SYBR Green chemistry has been applied for the quantification of residual DNA (resDNA) using highly repetitive DNA (Alu) and a housekeeping gene (B-actin) as target sequences.

Results:

The sensitivity achieved with this white sequence is within the reported limits and who are between 5 and 50 pg. For real time PCR optimization with Alu-p53, different concentrations of MgCl2 (0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25 and 1.5 mm) in combination with three different concentrations of primers (75, 100 and 150nM) were used. pDNA in concentration of 1x107 copies / ul was used as template. Optimal concentrations were 1.25 mM MgCl2 and 100nM primers. To level of detection of 1.53 ng/ul was found for p53-Alu and Alu-Glob and 0.39 ng/ul for B-actin with gDNA curves.

Conclusion:

Quantification of resDNA of vaccine VAHV I with close-ups of B-actin was normalized. Reached a sensitivity of 30 pg of resDNA/dose VAHV I, with close-ups of B-actin. Found, in three consecutive batches, an amount less than 10 ng/dose, these results suggest that the production process ensures vaccine resDNA removal, meeting international requirements for biological products for use in humans that use continuous cell lines for production.

Authors: AL-Juboori Mohammed Jasim
Published: July 2017

Objective:

Many techniques have been developed to enhance the gingival thickness, gingival level and emergence profile around the implant in the esthetic zone.

Introduction:

In this study, a buccal rotational flap was used to improve the implant site in the esthetic zone and increase gingival tissue thickness.

Methods:

Two cases involved the use of a rotational flap during second-stage implant surgery, one case involved the use of a temporary crown with a healing abutment, and another case involved the use of a healing abutment.

Result:

The cases were followed up until the final crown was placed. The implant site was improved in 2 cases; the gingival thickness increased, the gingival level was enhanced and the emergence profile was developed.

Conclusion:

Many factors affect the results of a rotational flap; some factors are surgical, while others are prosthetic, biological and anatomical.
Effects of Prenatal Consumption of Caprine Milk Oligosaccharides on Mice Mono-associated with Bifidobacterium Bifidum (AGR2166)
Authors: Thum Caroline , Itoh Kikuji , Young Wayne , Cookson Adrian , McNabb Warren , Roy Nicole
Published: July 2017

Background:

Prenatal consumption of oligosaccharides are associated with changes in the maternal gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiota with health consequences for the offspring. It has previously been demonstrated that caprine milk oligosaccharides (CMO) stimulate the growth and fermentation rate ofBifidobacterium bifidumAGR2166.

Objective:

The objective of this study was to examine the effects ofB. bifidumAGR2166 and prenatal consumption of CMO, alone or in combination, on the dam’s large intestine, foetal development and ability ofB. bifidumto translocate from the gastrointestinal lumen to organs and foetal membranes.

Method:

Germ-free BALB/c mice, inoculated withB. bifidumAGR2166 or anaerobic phosphate buffer, were fed either diet supplemented with CMO or with galacto-oligosaccharide. Pregnant mice were euthanised 1 to 3 days before the expected delivery date and samples collected for analysis.

Results:

Dietary CMO, regardless of bifidobacterial inoculation was shown to increase GIT weight and to reduce foetal weight compared to galacto-oligosaccharide-fed dams.B. bifidumAGR2166 DNA was detected in the mesenteric lymph nodes, liver, plasma and placenta of the dam by amplification of the bifidobacterial 16S rRNA gene.

Conclusion:

B. bifidumAGR2166 DNA was detected in maternal organs, however there is no indication that live bifidobacteria was able to translocate during pregnancy. Further studies using conventionally-raised mouse models will develop a deeper understanding of the interactions between dietary CMOF, the host, and bacteria.
Clinical Pearls in Anaesthesia for Pleurectomy/Decortication for Malignant Mesothelioma
Authors: Shah Shagun Bhatia , Chowdhury Itee , Darlong Laleng Mawia , Goyal Priyanka , Kansal Anamica
Published: July 2017

Background:

For most thoracic surgeries (lung resection, esophagectomy) the main purpose of inserting a double lumen tube for lung isolation is providing space for dissection and preventing lung motion by not ventilating (collapsing) the lung undergoing surgery.

Objective:

In addition, during pleurectomy/ decortication surgeries, the anaesthetist can indirectly perform the dissection of pleura from the lung without scrubbing, gloving or holding the scalpel.

Conclusion:

This is accomplished by ventilating the lung undergoing surgery, with large tidal volumes while the surgeon provides static traction to the visceral pleura. These phases alternate with one lung ventilation. A detailed account of anaesthesia for pleurectomy/ decortication follows.
The Core of Sibling Stem Cell Donation – A Grounded Theory Study
Authors: Kisch Annika M , Forsberg Anna
Published: July 2017

Background:

There is a lack of theoretical framework supporting stem cell transplant nurses in their assessment, judgment and caring interventions of sibling stem cell donors.

Objective:

The purpose of this study was to explore sibling stem cell donors’ main concerns and how they deal with them before and after donation.

Method:

Ten healthy sibling donors, 5 men and 5 women, with a median age of 54 years were included in this study when they were due to donate stem cells to a brother or sister. Data were collected prospectively on three occasions (before the donation and three and twelve months after it) through in-depth interviews, which were recorded and transcribed verbatim for analysis by the Grounded Theory method according to Charmaz.

Results:

This study describes the efforts of the ten donors to fulfil their duty as a sibling by doing what they considered necessary in order to help. Their efforts were summarised in a process wherein the grounded theory generated three main categories; Prepare, Promote and Preserve. A clear path of transition leading to fulfilment is evident, starting before the donation and continuing for one year afterwards.

Conclusions:

Being a sibling stem cell donor means doing what you have to do to fulfil your duty and if possible, saving the life of a seriously ill brother or sister. The relationship between the siblings is strengthened by the donation process. Sibling stem cell donation appears to be about fulfilment and the theoretical framework may support clinicians in their evaluation and support of donors.

The application of simulation in medical education - our experience “from improvisation to simulation”
Authors: Pavlovic Aleksandar , Kalezic Nevena , Trpkovic Sladjana , Videnovic Nebojsa , Sulovic Ljiljana
Published: July 2017

While the use of simulation in medical education has a long history, it has seen its greatest strides in the past 15-odd years. It may be defined as imitation, artificial while at the same time faithful, of various clinical situations through well-crafted medical ?scenarios? where, instead of actual people, we use standardized patients: plant, animal, or synthetic models, computerized interactive manikins ? simulators, with audiovisuals, as well as medical equipment used in everyday clinical practice. The fundamental goal of using simulation in medical education is an optimal balance between professional education on the one hand and complete safety and protection of patients on the other. Depending on the available finances and the level of advancement of the healthcare and education systems, medical simulation can take various forms ? from simple improvisation to the creation of a high-fidelity simulation in centers for medical simulation. Our example shows that, even with modest financial means, enthusiasm, creativity, and good ideas make it possible to establish a center for medical simulation. A separate section of the paper is devoted to the staging of a simulation scenario based on the authors? experiences.

Published: July 2017

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of different concentrations of hydrofluoric acid (HF) associated with varied etching times on the microshear bond strength (μSBS) of a resin cement to a lithium disilicate glass ceramic. Two hundred seventy-five ceramic blocks (IPS e.max Press [EMX], Ivoclar Vivadent), measuring 8 mm × 3 mm thickness, were randomly distributed into five groups according to the HF concentrations (n=50): 1%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10%. Further random distribution into subgroups was performed according to the following etching times (n=10): 20, 40, 60, 120, and 20 + 20 seconds. After etching, all blocks were treated with a silane coupling agent followed by a thin layer of an unfilled resin. Three resin cement cylinders (∅︀=1 mm) were made on each EMX surface, which was then stored in deionized water at 37°C for 24 hours before testing. The μSBS was in a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min until failure. Data were submitted to two-way analysis of variance, and multiple comparisons were performed using the Tukey post hoc test (α=0.05). One representative EMX sample was etched according to the description of each subgroup and evaluated using scanning electron microscopy for surface characterization. The HF concentrations of 5%, 7.5%, and 10% provided significantly higher μSBS values than 1% and 2.5% (p<0.05), regardless of the etching times. For 1% and 2.5% HF, the etching times from 40 to 120 seconds increased the μSBS values compared with 20 seconds (p<0.05), but etching periods did not differ within the 5%, 7.5%, and 10% HF groups (p>0.05). The effect of re-etching was more evident for 1% and 2.5% HF (p<0.05). Different HF concentrations/etching times directly influenced the bond strength and surface morphology of EMX.

Nilai Eigen Matriks Permutasi Fuzzy Berordo 2×2 dan 3×3
Authors: Wardayani Ari , Suroto Suroto
Published: July 2017

Joe Anand dan Edal Anand (2015) membahas nilai eigen matriks fuzzy melalui persamaankarakteristik seperti pada matriks biasa tetapi tidak mendefinisikan operasi pengurangan pada matriksfuzzy. Mengingat bahwa himpunan matriks fuzzy persegi hanya merupakan suatu semi ring yang belumtentu terjamin eksistensi invers penjumlahannya maka perlu dijelaskan pendefinisian operasipengurangan pada saat membahas nilai eigen tersebut. Karena himpunan matriks permutasi fuzzymerupakan suatu semi lapangan, maka pembahasan mengenai nilai eigen dan beberapa sifat terkaitmelalui persamaan karakteristik kemungkinan dapat dilakukan.Pada makalah ini hanya dibahas mengenai nilai eigen pada matriks permutasi fuzzy berordo 2×2 dan3×3 dengan mengadopsi gagasan pada Joe Anand dan Edal Anand (2015) tetapi dengan memodifikasioperasi pengurangan seperti pada Sidky dan Emam (1992). Dengan menerapkan operasi pengurangantersebut, diperoleh bahwa kemungkinan nilai eigen pada matriks permutasi fuzzy berordo 2×2 dan 3×3adalah 1 atau sembarang nilai pada interval [0,1].

Grup Lie merupakan grup yang berisikan matriks yang merepresentasikan pergerakan atauperputaran suatu titik terhadap sumbu koordinat atau sumbu koordinat terhadap suatu titik. Grup spesialuniter dan grup spesial ortogonal merupakan contoh grup Lie. Dalam kajian fisika, grup spesial uniter dimensidua (��(2)) merepresentasikan rotasi elektron terhadap pusat rotasinya. Sedangkan grup spesial ortogonaldimensi tiga (��(3)) merepresentasikan rotasi elektron terhadap inti atom. Dalam paper ini, akan dikajiketerkaitan antara kedua grup ini dengan menggunakan Teorema Isomorfisma sehingga diperolah hasil bahwaterdapat homomorfisma surjektif dari grup ��(2) ke grup ��(3) kemudian dapat ditunjukkan bahwa��(2)���(�) isomorfik dengan SO(3).

Alcances y límites de la noción de “repertorio de contestación” para describir, medir y explicar la conflictividad en Chile del siglo XXI
Authors: Orellana Águila Nicolás
Published: July 2017

Este artículo tiene por objetivo hacer un análisis de las dinámicas del conflicto social en el Chile entre los años 2000-2011. Para ello se elaboran catálogos de acciones contestatarias a partir de las Cronologías del Conflicto Social de CLACSO, que sirven de base para identificar actores, acciones y adversarios. El objetivo específico es doble: por un lado, llevar al límite las bases teóricas en que se sostiene una parte importante de las interpretaciones académicas del conflicto social, evaluando su utilidad y posibles críticas; por otro, observar si quienes se movilizan responden a una dinámica heterónoma del conflicto o si más bien son sujetos con capacidad de acción autónoma. Con ello se espera contar con los elementos suficientes para realizar un esbozo del repertorio de contestación en Chile en el presente siglo.
Perfiles y trayectorias delictivas a la cárcel. Una agenda de investigación
Authors: Ramírez de Garay Luis David
Published: July 2017

La prisión es una de las mayores cajas negras del sistema de justicia mexicano. La falta de transparencia y la opacidad en la información han resultado en la ausencia de información estadística de calidad y de investigación académica. Un importante aspecto a develar son las trayectorias que llevan a las personas a la cárcel. La perspectiva de curso de vida tiene las herramientas teóricas y metodológicas para aportar información sobre este aspecto de la población carcelaria. En virtud de lo anterior, el presente texto muestra la relevancia de esta perspectiva para poder estudiar aspectos específicos sobre dos grupos de la población carcelaria: jóvenes en conflicto con la ley y adultos reincidentes. Todo esto con el objetivo de presentar una nueva agenda de investigación y el proyecto de investigación: “Perfiles y trayectorias delictivas hacia la prisión”.
Infrastructure connectivity and regional economic integration in East Asia: Progress and challenges
Authors: Yu Hong
Published: July 2017

Intra-regional trade serves as a key growth engine for East Asian economies. Accompanying the rapid growth of bilateral and intra-regional trade ties, the East Asian economies are becoming increasingly connected and interdependent. Infrastructure connectivity plays a crucial role in bridging different areas of the East Asian region and enabling them to reap the full socioeconomic benefits of economic cooperation and integration. Nevertheless, further improvement of infrastructure in the region faces major challenges due to the lack of effective mechanisms for coordination and dialogue on regional integration through funding infrastructure projects, as well as the serious trust deficit among member states that has arisen from the on-going territorial and historical disputes.
The new structural economics: patient capital as a comparative advantage
Authors: Lin Justin Yifu , Wang Yan
Published: July 2017

The world economy needs a growth-lifting strategy, and infrastructure financing seems to hold the key. Based on the New Structural Economics (Lin, 2010; 2012) we discuss the heterogeneity of capital focusing on the long-term versus short-term orientation (STO). Traditional neoliberalism assumes that capital is homogenous, complete capital account liberalization is “beneficial”.However, previous studies have found evidence of long-term orientation (LTO) in the culture of many Asian economies (Hofstede, 1991). In this exploratory paper, we suggest that the LTO can be considered a special endowment which, under certain circumstances, can be developed into a comparative advantage (CA) in patient capital. If these countries can turn their latent CA into arevealed CA in patient capital, and develop the ability to “package” profitable and non-profitable projects in meaningful ways, they would have a “revealed” competitive advantage in infrastructure financing. The ability to “package” public infrastructure and private services is one of the key institutional factors for success in overseas cooperation.
