Authors: Russo Eleonora , Potenza Domenico R. , Casella Michela , Massaro Raimondo , Russo Giulio , Braccio Maurizio , Dello Russo Antonio , Cassese Mauro
Published: December 2018

Transcather aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become a safe and indispensable treatment option for patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis who are at high surgical risk. Recently, outcomes after TAVI have improved significantly and TAVI has emerged as a qualified alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement in the treatment of intermediate risk patients and greater adoption of this procedure is to be expected in a wider patients population, including younger patients and low surgical risk patients. However since the aortic valve has close spatial proximity to the conduction system, conduction anomalies are frequently observed in TAVI. In this article, we aim to review the key aspects of pathophysiology, current incidence, predictors and clinical association of conduction anomalies following TAVI.
Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis of the Major Ingredients of a Herbal Preparation, Ciwujia Injection by Combination of HPLC-Q-TOF-MS, HPLC-TQ-MS/MS and UPLC-PDA
Authors: Xie Yunjiao , Wang Panpan , Ruan Yijun , Shi Peiying , Yao Hong
Published: December 2018

Background:

Ciwujia injection, prepared from water extraction of Acanthopanax senticosus,
is widely used for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in the clinic in China. The ingredients of the
preparation are still not efficiently clear and its quality control method requires further improvement.

Objective: In this paper, the qualitative and quantitative methods for quality control of Ciwujia injection
were originally developed by a combination of HPLC-Q-TOF-MS, HPLC-TQ-MS/MS and UPLCPDA.

Methods:

With HPLC-Q-TOF-MS and HPLC-TQ-MS/MS, compounds were identified firstly by comparison
of their MS spectra and retention times with those of standards or recorded information in the
literature. Further, a new UPLC-PDA method was originally established to simultaneously determine
the multiple ingredients in the preparations.

Results:

For qualitative analysis, 22 compounds were identified by the presented method. For quantitative
analysis, the validated method exhibited good linearity (R2 > 0.998), repeatability (RSD < 1.50%),
intra- and inter-day precisions (RSD < 8.33%) and recoveries (95.93-108.58%) for the simultaneous
determination of the active ingredients, including protocatechuic acid-3-glucoside, l-phenylalanine,
protocatechuic acid, neochlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, gentiopicroside, eleutheroside B, and cryptochlorogenic
acid, and was successfully utilized to analyze the eight compounds in 4 batches of Ciwujia
injection.

Conclusion:

The presented method is simple and rapid for quality control of Ciwujia injection, and
could provide a useful reference for the quality control and routine analysis of others Ciwujia preparations.

Authors: Zhu Xinxin , Péault Bruno , Yan Guijun , Sun Haixiang , Hu Yali , Ding Lijun
Published: December 2018

Monthly changes in the endometrial cycle indicate the presence of endometrial stem cells. In
recent years, various stem cells that exist in the endometrium have been identified and characterized.
Additionally, many studies have shown that Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells (BM-MSCs) provide
an alternative source for regenerating the endometrium and repairing endometrial injury. This
review discusses the origin of endometrial stem cells, the characteristics and main biomarkers among
five types of putative endometrial stem cells, applications of endometrium-derived stem cells and menstrual
blood-derived stem cells, the association between BM-MSCs and endometrial stem cells, and
progress in repairing endometrial injury.

Authors: Zhang Zhen , Wen Hao , Yang Xiaobin , Zhang Ke , He Baorong , Zhang Xinliang , Kong Lingbo
Published: December 2018

Bone homeostasis is strictly regulated by balanced activity of bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts.Disruption of the balance of activity between osteoblasts and osteoclasts leads to various metabolic bone diseases. Osteoclasts are cells of hematopoietic origin that they are large, multinucleated cells formed by the fusion of precursor cells of monocyte/macrophage lineage, they are unique cells that degrade the bone matrix, activation of transcription factors nuclear factoractivated T cells c1 (NFATc1) is required for sufficient osteoclast differentiation and it plays the role of a master transcription regulator of osteoclast differentiation, meanwhile, NFATc1 could be employed to elicit anabolic effects on bone. In this review, we have summarized the various mechanisms that control NFATc1 regulation during osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation as well as a new strategy for promoting bone regeneration in osteopenic disease.
Potential Impact and Cost-Effectiveness of Rotavirus Vaccination in Afghanistan (Preprint)
Authors: Anwari Palwasha , Debellut F , Pecenka C , Mohammed S , Clark A , Groman D , Safi N
Published: December 2018

BACKGROUND

Despite progress made in child survival in the past 20 years, 5.9 million children under five years died in 2015, with 9% of these deaths due to diarrhea. Rotavirus is responsible for more than a third of diarrhea deaths. In 2013, rotavirus was estimated to cause 215,000 deaths among children under five years, including 89,000 in Asia. As of April 2017, 92 countries worldwide have introduced rotavirus vaccination in their national immunization program. Afghanistan has applied for Gavi support to introduce rotavirus vaccination nationally.

OBJECTIVE

This study estimates the potential impact and cost-effectiveness of a national rotavirus immunization program in Afghanistan.

METHODS

This study examined the use of Rotarix (RV1) administered using a two-dose schedule at 6 and 10 weeks of age. We used the ProVac Initiative's UNIVAC model (version 1.2.09) to evaluate the impact and cost-effectiveness of a rotavirus vaccine program compared with no vaccine over ten birth cohorts from 2017 to 2026 with a 3% annual discount rate. All monetary units are adjusted to 2017 US$.

RESULTS

Rotavirus vaccination in Afghanistan has the potential to avert more than one million cases; 660,000 outpatient visits; approximately 50,000 hospital admissions; 650,000 DALYs; and 12,000 deaths, over 10 years. Not accounting for any Gavi subsidy, rotavirus vaccination can avert DALYs at US$82/DALY from the government perspective and US$80/DALY from the societal perspective. With Gavi support, DALYs can be averted at US$29/DALY and US$31/DALY from the societal and government perspective, respectively. The average yearly cost of a rotavirus vaccination program would represent 2.8% of the total immunization budget expected in 2017 and 0.1% of total health expenditure.

CONCLUSIONS

The introduction of rotavirus vaccination would be highly cost-effective in Afghanistan, and even more so with a Gavi subsidy.
An Intervention for Changing Sedentary Behavior Among African Americans With Multiple Sclerosis: Protocol (Preprint)
Authors: Baird Jessica F , Sasaki Jeffer Eidi , Sandroff Brian M , Cutter Gary , Motl Robert W
Published: December 2018

BACKGROUND

Sedentary behavior is a major concern among patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), as it may accelerate disease progression and exacerbate physical disability. This is especially concerning among African Americans, a segment of the MS population who present with greater neurological disability and higher odds of physical comorbidities than their Caucasian counterparts.

OBJECTIVE

To date, researchers have not proposed interventions that focus on changing sedentary behavior in African Americans with MS.

METHODS

This paper describes a pilot study that examines the feasibility and efficacy of using text messaging along with theory-driven newsletters and behavioral coaching for changing sedentary behavior in African Americans with MS. We herein present the methods, procedures, and outcomes for our ongoing study.

RESULTS

Enrollment began in February 2018 and is expected to conclude in April 2019. Study results will be reported in the fall of 2019.

CONCLUSIONS

After completion of this pilot intervention, we will summarize our study results in manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed journals that will provide critical information on the feasibility and efficacy of our strategy. These results will inform future studies and, potentially, larger interventions for remotely reducing sedentary behavior in African Americans with MS.

Digital Education for Health Professions on Smoking Cessation Management: Systematic Review by the Digital Health Education Collaboration (Preprint)
Authors: Semwal Monika , Whiting Penny , Bajpai Ram , Bajpai Shweta , Kyaw Bhone Myint , Tudor Car Lorainne
Published: December 2018

BACKGROUND

Tobacco smoking, one of the leading causes of preventable death and disease, is associated with 7 million deaths every year. This is estimated to rise to more than 8 million deaths per year by 2030, with 80% occurring in low- and middle-income countries. Digital education, teaching, and learning using digital technologies have the potential to increase educational opportunities, supplement teaching activities, and decrease distance barriers in health professions education.

OBJECTIVE

The primary objective of this systematic review was to evaluate the effectiveness of digital education compared with various controls in improving learners’ knowledge, skills, attitudes, and satisfaction to deliver smoking cessation therapy. The secondary objectives were to assess patient-related outcomes, change in health professionals’ practice or behavior, self-efficacy or self-rated competence of health professionals in delivering smoking cessation therapy, and cost-effectiveness of the interventions.

METHODS

We searched 7 electronic databases and 2 trial registers for randomized controlled trials published between January 1990 and August 2017. We used gold standard Cochrane methods to select and extract data and appraise eligible studies.

RESULTS

A total of 11 studies (number of participants, n=2684) were included in the review. All studies found that digital education was at least as effective as traditional or usual learning. There was some suggestion that blended education results in similar or greater improvements in knowledge (standardized mean difference, SMD=0.19, 95% CI −0.35 to 0.72), skill (SMD=0.58, 95% CI 0.08-1.08), and satisfaction (SMD=0.62, 95% CI 0.12-1.12) compared with digital education or usual learning alone. There was also some evidence for improved attitude (SMD=0.45, 95% CI 0.18-0.72) following digital education compared with usual learning. Only 1 study reported patient outcomes and the setup cost of blended education but did not compare outcomes among groups. There were insufficient data to investigate what components of the digital education interventions were associated with the greatest improvements in learning outcomes.

CONCLUSIONS

The evidence suggests that digital education is at least as effective as usual learning in improving health professionals’ knowledge and skill for delivering smoking cessation therapy. However, limitations in the evidence base mean that these conclusions should be interpreted with some caution.

The student's decision to be the member of a library is an expression of their need od information. This decision is influenced by intern al and external factors, such as social, milieu and motivation. There are so many kinds of library in UGM: faculty, research center, diploma program, etc. That makes not all UGM students want to become the members ofuniversity library. The success ofa library can be measured by the quantity and quality of its members, such as increasing of active users of potential users.

The problems are: why do UGM students choose or do not choose to become the member of UPU library? What are the factors influenced this choice? Is there any significant difference between the sex, education, or development that they take? The method that is used is eclective qualitative and explanatory research, it explains causal relation between the variable through examining the explanation. The population are the visitors of UGM library, such as UGM students (D3, S1, Pascasarjana) and also from outside of UGM. The datasare taken by quisioner, interview and also examining some documents and similar research. Sample method is used to take 105 responds of library unit I in Bulaksumur and Unit 2 in Sekip. Majority of students have middle decision to become the member of the library.

Protected area networks are insufficient for the conservation of threatened farmland species: A case study on corncrake (Crex crex) and lesser grey shrike (Lanius minor) in Serbia

Published: December 2018

To conserve threatened farmland species requires an estimate of the
representation of their habitats within protected areas, especially in
countries with inadequate mechanisms for protecting and managing habitats
outside of protected areas. We conducted a gap analysis to evaluate the
conservation status of suitable habitats for two threatened farmland bird
species - corncrake (Crex crex) and lesser grey shrike (Lanius minor) -
within the networks of national protected areas (NPAs) and important bird
areas (IBAs) in Serbia. We determined the distribution of suitable habitats
using MaxEnt based on climate, topography and land-cover variables. We found
that the proportion of suitable habitats within the NPAs is very low (12.31%
and 2.04% for the corncrake and lesser grey shrike, respectively), although
it is significantly higher for both species within IBAs (25.86% and 9.91%,
respectively). Upland farmland habitats (preferred by corncrake) are better
represented within both networks (especially IBAs) than lowland habitats
(preferred by lesser grey shrike). Our spatially explicit distribution models
identify suitable habitats within and beyond the NPAs and IBAs that require
monitoring and appropriate conservation measures. The low representation of
suitable habitats within these networks is an obstacle to the conservation of
both species and other farmland birds in Serbia.
Repair or Observation of Resin Margin Defects: Clinical Trial After Five Years
Authors: Dennison JB , Yaman P , Fasbinder DJ , Herrero AA
Published: December 2018

Objective:

To assess the effectiveness of repair/resealing of stained composite margins as an alternative to controlled observation without treatment in a randomized clinical trial after five years.

Methods and Materials:

Each patient recruited had from one to three composite restorations with visible margin discoloration. Initially, the characteristics of each defect were recorded with direct vision through a surgical microscope at 20× magnification. Clinical evaluation was done by two independent examiners using modified USPHS criteria for color, margin discoloration, and margin adaptation. Each restoration was then randomly assigned to a control or treatment group. Control restorations were observed yearly for the presence of recurrent caries; treatment restorations were resealed by exposing the margin with a ¼ round bur, removing all interfacial stain, acid etching, placing an adhesive bonding agent, and a flowable composite to restore margin integrity. There were 152 patients recruited, with 360 restorations (180 control and 180 treatment).

Results:

At five years, 104 patients were recalled (68%) with 271 restorations (76%): 136 untreated control and 135 resealed restorations. At that time, 61 restorations had been lost or replaced for nonrelated reasons. Clinical evaluation of the remaining 210 restorations determined penetrating discoloration (control = 81%, resealed = 46%) and margin crevice formation (control = 21%, resealed = 11%). Recurrent caries was diagnosed cumulatively in only six control and five treatment restorations (<5%). Microscopically, 49 control restorations (49%) and 36 resealed restorations (33%) had crevice formation. Discoloration was distributed as follows: 9% vs 47% with no discoloration, 30% vs 33% in the composite, 49% vs 18% in the interface, and 12% vs 2% in tooth structure.

Conclusions:

Resealing of restorations with margin discoloration reduced the occurrence of penetrating stain from 81% in controls to 46% in resealed margins and crevicing from 21% to 11% after five years. Both controlled observation and resealing of margins resulted in a similar very low incidence (<6%) of recurrent caries.

Four photopolymerizing experimental resin cements were produced with the same resin matrix and associated with four different photoinitiator systems: camphorquinone (CQ), diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide (TPO), Ivocerin, and TPO + Ivocerin. Eighty disc-shaped ceramic veneers (IPS Empress Esthetic, Ivoclar Vivadent) were fabricated (10-mm diameter) in two different thicknesses: 0.7 and 1.5 mm. A previously characterized multiwave LED (Bluephase G2, Ivoclar Vivadent) was standardized for 40 seconds of photoactivation. Light transmittance through each ceramic veneer thickness (n=5) was measured using a spectrometer (USB 2000, Ocean Optics). The μSBS of each resin cement (n=15) to the ceramic veneer was evaluated using 0.5-mm cylinders with 0.7-mm diameters photoactivated through the different ceramic veneer thicknesses. Samples for FS and UTS tests were made either with or without ceramics veneers (0.7 and 1.5 mm) fixed to the light-curing tip. Data were submitted to two-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test (α=0.05).

Results:

The multiwave LED emitted higher irradiance into the blue wavelength spectra than into the violet wavelength spectra (p=0.0001). Light transmittance through the ceramic veneers was reduced in a systematic manner based on thickness regardless of the wavelength spectra emitted from the multiwave LED (p=0.00037). The μSBS was reduced in a systematic manner based on thickness regardless of the photoinitiator system (p<0.05). However, resin cements with CQ and Ivocerin showed higher bond strength values in comparison to the resin cement with TPO regardless of the ceramic veneer thickness (p<0.05). The FS and UTS means decreased (p<0.05) with the interposition of 0.7- and 1.5-mm ceramic veneers for all resin cements. The resin cement containing only TPO showed the lowest FS and UTS means (p<0.05) for all ceramic veneers.

Conclusions:

The thickness of the ceramic veneers reduced the irradiance of the multiwave LED in all wavelength spectra. Ivocerin alone or associated with TPO showed to be an effective alternative photoinitiator to substitute for CQ. The resin cement containing only TPO had lower bond strength values in comparison to resin cements with CQ, Ivocerin, and Ivocerin + TPO.
Potassium Iodide Reversal of Silver Diamine Fluoride Staining: A Case Report
Authors: Garg S , Sadr A , Chan DCN
Published: December 2018

This article describes the clinical protocol of using potassium iodide (KI) to reverse staining caused by silver diamine fluoride (SDF). SDF contains silver, fluoride, and ammonia. It has been used to arrest dental caries mainly in pediatric applications. The major drawback of SDF application is the dark staining of both teeth and restorative materials. Hence, its use on adult dentition is limited. Improving the esthetic outcome by stain reduction would greatly enhance the opportunity for SDF's universal use. This case demonstrates how KI can effectively reverse the staining.
Evaluation of the Microshear Bond Strength of MDP-containing and Non–MDP-containing Self-adhesive Resin Cement on Zirconia Restoration
Authors: Go EJ , Shin Y , Park JW
Published: December 2018

Objectives:

The purpose of this study was to measure the microshear bond strength (μSBS) of four different self-adhesive resin cements with/without 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP)-containing primer to zirconium ceramics and to evaluate the effect of zirconia primers on these self-adhesive resin cements (SARCs).

Methods and Materials:

Zirconia blocks (20 × 20 × 8 mm3) were prepared and divided into eight groups (n=20). They were sandblasted (50 μm Al2O3) and treated as follows: no primer or primer (Z-Primer Plus). Four self-adhesive resin cements (MDP-containing: Permacem 2.0 [PC], Clearfil SA luting [CS]; non–MDP-containing: Rely-X U200 [RU], Maxcem Elite [ME]) were bonded to the zirconia surface. After thermocycling, a μSBS test was performed. The failure mode was analyzed using light microscopy. Statistical analysis of μSBS was performed using one-way analysis of variance and two-sample t-test with post hoc Tukey test. The loss rate was evaluated using the Fisher's exact test and χ2 test with post hoc Tukey test (p<0.05).

Results:

Within the no primer groups, the PC and CS groups showed higher bond strength than the RU and ME groups. Comparing the μSBS of the no primer and primer groups in the same SARCs, the RU/P group was higher than the RU group, and the ME/P group was higher than the ME group. No significant difference was observed between the PC and PC/P groups and between the CS and CS/P groups.

Conclusions:

Non–MDP-containing SARC showed the increased bonding value with MDP-containing primer to zirconia ceramics. The bond strength of MDP-containing SARCs was not affected significantly by the use of zirconia primer.

This chapter presents the synopsis of an international survey conducted within the scope of the European-funded project PETALL (Pan-European Task Activities in Language Learning) on the use of ICT in Task-based Language Teaching (TBLT). Besides trying to ascertain the ways in which technology-mediated tasks are put into practice by practitioners in both the EU and the USA, this study also looks into the differences and similarities that exist between their beliefs and attitudes in the implementation of other methods and approaches in the language classroom, familiarity with the theoretical tenets of TBLT, and the use of textbooks and other resources.
Tempo, espaço e comunicação multimodal em cursos de formação de professores
Authors:   Instituto Politécnico de Santarém, Tavares Clara Ferrão
Published: December 2018

Le 30e anniversaire des cours de langue à l'ESEC de Universidade do Algarve est un moment privilégié pour célébrer le passé, non seulement de cette école, mais aussi des différentes ESE qui ont eu un point de départ très similaire et constitue un moment pour envisager l'avenir. Le changement de désignation de l’institution avec l’incorporation de la communication semble justifier mon choix : j'ai privilégié la communication comme thème de mon intervention. Dans l’article qui reprend les contenus de la conférence présentée et qui garde exprès le ton dialogique, j’ai essayé d’identifier quelques « changements », certaines « pérennités » et des « innovations » dans l'enseignement des langues et dans la formation des enseignants, en m’appuyant sur mon histoire qui, dans une certaine mesure, a beaucoup d’aspects en commun avec celle de nombreux « fondateurs » des ESE. J'essaie d'analyser les pratiques du passé avec les instruments actuels, en montrant que dans les espaces délocalisés et les temps « contractés » d'aujourd'hui, la communication multimodale devrait être une composante essentielle des programmes de formation des enseignants et des programmes de langues.
The role of stories in language learning
Authors: Ward Sheila Margaret
Published: December 2018

Apresento a minha perspetiva sobre a importância das histórias no ensino de línguas em geral e especialmente no ensino de línguas a crianças. As histórias são motivadoras e, enquanto textos completos, apresentam vários aspetos da língua em contexto, como por exemplo vocabulário, gramática ou referências culturais. Nas histórias para crianças as imagens desempenham um papel fundamental, uma vez que ajudam a compreensão do texto escrito. Refiro particularmente a utilização de histórias bilingues, Freda and Fernando on the River Tagus, Freda e Fernando no Rio Tejo e Darcy A Dinossaura, Darcy The Dinosaur de que sou autora.

In the time of urban growth, people should be at the heart of development, too often they are forgotten. However, growth poses also a great possibility. Cities can transform into open innovation Living Labs, places to experiment and co-create with creative ideas to improve people’s health and wellbeing.

Open innovation Living Lab is one-step for city towards smart and healthy society. This requires bold political choices, strategic level approach, open-minded governance and new operational models. The City of Kuopio has taken this opportunity into action together with Kuopio University Hospital.

Living Lab operates as an authentic co-creation environment to enable collaboration between citizens, industry, academia and public sector (Quadruple Helix Open Innovation model). This was implemented through primary health care services bringing together community and citizens´ homes for co-creation of new solutions, which helps people, live longer in their homes and increase the quality of life.

The elderly and their close relatives have been enthusiastically involved in the services. Participation opportunities and the feeling of social cohesion have increased. Critical success factors are support from strategic level, well-coordinated services, governance, a broad customer base and solutions made from the genuine need.

Collaboration between all stakeholders has made it possible to provide better products and services that can improve health and wellbeing of the community in all sectors of life. At the same time, it promotes citizens’ participation and supports co-creation of new ideas arising from the community and the growth of healthy city.

Authors: Kouri Pirkko , Ahonen Outi Maria
Published: December 2018

In Finland higher education system consists of both theoretical universities and universities of applied sciences (UASs). Today students in higher education institutions are encouraged to find their way and teaching and learning occurs in different environments. A scientific conference provides prerequisites for high-quality, working-life based higher education experience as well as familiarizes with research, development and innovation practices. Furthermore, an international conference offers both new possibilities to disseminate one’s research and development work and to build international co-operation and new networks. The Finnish Society for Telemedicine and eHealth (FTeHS) works on voluntary basis and needs extra help in conference building. This offers a great opportunity to cooperation with students. The recruitment criteria for the students were e.g. prior experience in conferences or equivalent, and good English language skills. The master level students, five of them, were chosen in late autumn 2017 from the two Universities of Applied sciences. The article enlightens students’ experiences related to the preparatory and execution phases of the conference. The instructions are given what the conference work is. The article describes how students are planning, realizing and evaluating the conference in collaboration with conference organizations, and simultaneously having a fruitful and many-sided learning experience. The research data was collected via meeting notes made by the student in meeting’s secretary role, students’ learning reports, emailing messages and WhatsApp messages. Article focuses on student’s learning more than teaching.
