Bu araştırmada ortaokul öğrencilerinin Eğitim Bilişim Ağı’na (EBA) yönelik görüşlerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma, nitel araştırma yöntemi desenlerinden fenomenoloji desenine göre yapılandırılmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu Doğu Anadolu Bölgesinde bir devlet ortaokulunda öğrenim gören üç erkek ve beş kız öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme yoluyla ZOOM programı üzerinden çevrimiçi olarak toplanmıştır. Veriler betimsel ve içerik analizi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçlarından elde edilen kodlar tablolaştırılarak 12 kategori altında sunulmuştur. Araştırma sonucunda öğrencilerin çoğunlukla EBA’yı her gün kullandıkları ve bu platform aracılığıyla canlı derslere girmek, ödev yapmak, ders çalışmak için sistemi tercih ettikleri sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Sistemin yavaş çalışması, bazen açılmaması, bildirim gelmemesi gibi sıkıntıların yaşandığı belirlenmiştir. Platformun kaynaklara erişim imkânı tanıması ve öğrenmeye katkıda bulunması gibi olumlu özelliklerin olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. EBA’nın canlı derslere girişte bekleme süresi vermesi ve seçmeli derslere ait içeriklerin bulunmaması ise öğrenciler açısından olumsuz bir yön olarak görülmüştür. Araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlar ışığında, EBA ders içeriklerinin zenginleştirilmesi ve programın kullanımına yönelik eğitimler verilmesi önerisinde bulunulmuştur.
Remote, Mobile, and Blue-Collar: ICT-Enabled Job Crafting to Elevate Occupational Well-Being
Authors: Tarafdar Monideepa ,   University of Massachusetts Amherst, Saunders Carol ,   University of Pretoria
Published: May 2022

Blue-collar remote and mobile workers (BC-RMWs) such as repair/installation engineers, delivery drivers, and construction workers, constitute a significant share of the workforce. They work away from a home or office work base at customer and remote work sites and are highly dependent on ICT for completing their work tasks. Low occupational well-being is a key concern regarding BC-RMWs. The objective of this research is to understand how BC-RMWs can use information and communication technology (ICT) to elevate their occupational well-being. Drawing from the job demands-job resources theoretical framework in occupational psychology, we theorize that the distinctive work characteristics faced by BC-RMWs can be viewed in the conceptual framing of job demands. We conceptualize BC-RMWs’ practices of ICT use as possible ways to gather resources to tackle these demands. We conducted a study of 28 BC-RMWs employed in two private sector firms (telecom service provision and construction industries) in the UK across 14 remote work sites. Based on our findings, we developed the concept of ICT-enabled job crafting and theorized how ICT-enabled job crafting by BC-RMWs can help them increase their job resources to tackle their job demands and consequently increase their occupational well-being. The empirical context of the paper, i.e., the study of BC-RMWs, provides further novelty because these kinds of workers and their distinctive and interesting work conditions have not received much attention in the literature.
Synthesizing Qualitative Evidence: A Roadmap for Information Systems Research
Authors: Skinner Richard J. ,   University of Houston, Nelson R. Ryan ,   University of Virginia, Chin Wynne ,   University of Houston
Published: May 2022

Qualitative synthesis research is an approach that consolidates the output of different qualitative studies to create new subject knowledge. Such work can help reveal more powerful explanations than that seen in a single study, thereby generating increased levels of understanding of a given phenomenon and greater research finding generalizability. Based on a review of the literature and a survey of qualitative researchers, we found that the information systems (IS) domain lacks a clear understanding of qualitative synthesis methods and, as a result, has largely failed to take advantage of this powerful, high-potential methodological opportunity. To address this shortcoming, this paper is the first to provide a rigorous overview of the full suite of 35 qualitative synthesis methods, as well as guidelines that include a three-tiered selection framework. By using the guidelines and framework in tandem, IS researchers are able to select the qualitative synthesis method most appropriate for a given research study, particularly when the research objective involves knowledge integration/aggregation, interpretation/theory development, and/or informing IS practice.
Sequence-Based Hazard Maps for the United Kingdom
Authors: Orlacchio Mabel , Cito Pasquale , Polidoro Barbara , Villani Manuela , Iervolino Iunio
Published: May 2022

The current practice of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) does not take into account that earthquakes actually occur in time–space clusters. The input for PSHA is based on declustered seismic catalogs, used to characterize only the mainshocks, that is, the largest magnitude events within each cluster. However, the so-called sequence-based PSHA (SPSHA; Iervolino et al., 2014) allows us including the effect of aftershocks in hazard analysis, that is, the events following the mainshock, still conveniently resourcing from declustered catalogs. In the United Kingdom (UK), the seismic source model developed for the national seismic hazard assessment has been recently updated by the British Geological Survey (BGS, 2020). In this study, the source model developed by the BGS (one directly derived from it, in fact) is used to implement SPSHA in the UK. The calibration of the model for the occurrence of aftershocks, that is, the modified Omori’s law, is fitted on a few sequences and under some simplifying assumptions. The results, represented by hazard maps for selected spectral ordinates and exceedance return periods of interest for structural engineering, are compared to the PSHA counterparts to discuss the increase in the design seismic actions when the effects of aftershocks are considered. The maps show that, based on the modeling of aftershock sequences considered in the study, in the UK this increase can be up to 14%, at least for the spectral ordinates and exceedance return periods herein investigated. The discussed maps are provided as supplemental material to this article.
FastTrip: A Fast MPI-Accelerated 1D Triplication Waveform Inversion Package for Constraining Mantle Transition Zone Discontinuities
Authors: Li Jiaqi , Chen Min , Koper Keith D. , Zhou Tong , Xi Ziyi , Li Shaohua , Li Guoliang
Published: May 2022

The 410- and 660-km discontinuities define the top and bottom of the mantle transition zone (MTZ). The properties of these mineralogical phase transformation interfaces provide critical constraints on the dynamics, temperature, and composition of the MTZ. Triplicated body waves that bottom near these discontinuities carry rich information about them. To streamline the modeling of upper-mantle triplications recorded at regional distances (13°–30°), we have developed a (Fast) Message Passing Interface (MPI)-accelerated 1D (Tr)iplication Waveform (I)nversion (P)ackage (FastTrip). With triplication waveform data as input, FastTrip uses a global search method to output a set of acceptable 1D velocity models. Quantitative estimation of the model uncertainties can be further derived based on the range of acceptable models. FastTrip supports central processing unit (CPU) parallel acceleration (15,000 models within 2 hr with 100 CPUs) and is portable to other inversion problems that can be described by a relatively small number of model parameters.

Authors: Maalmi Ramzi , Slama Amine Ben , Sahli Hanene , Trabelsi Hedi
Published: May 2022

Hearing perception loss is the main common disabilities existing in adults confirmed by the auditory evoked potential exam (AEP). This technique is characterized by limited medical information from feedback response in full routine examination of patients. Body movements, measuring equipment, low-frequency noise are outside factors that cause a misinterpretation. In clinical workflow, AEP signals are manually classified by the experts in order to precise the hearing loss level. In order to enhancethe diagnosis rung rightness, the fully convolutional neural networks methodology is proposed to highlight reliably automated hearing loss analysis. The validation of the proposed approach was focused on 494 factual incorporated auditory loss cases and 177 seen normal undergoing different auditory stimuli (20 dB, 50, 60... and 80 dB) from AEP recordings. The used classification method can represent a highly reduced labor-intensive study loads of ear nose throat (ENT) doctor by applying the pertinent analysis strategy for each hearing loss level and significantly increase the auditory diagnosis performance which provides ability for a computerized ENT assessment. Compared to state-of-the-art methods, the used technique presents a higher accuracy rate by requiring hearing loss level classes.

Published: May 2022

The performance of college students in job interviews can be significantly promoted, if they are guided properly to identify and regulate negative emotions. However, the existing automatic expression identification algorithms cannot recognize expressions ideally, due to the small sample set, and the lack of diverse storage forms. To solve the problem, this paper explores the expression identification and emotional classification of students in job interviews based on image processing. Firstly, the ideas of interview emotion identification were expounded based on computer technology and image processing technology, and the college students’ interview emotion regulation process was modeled. Then, the histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) was adopted to extract the local textures and edges from the expression images of students in job interviews, and the face expressions were identified for the analysis on interview emotions. Based on the graph neural network (GNN) and representation learning, a job interview expression identification algorithm was designed for college students, which effectively suppresses the uncertainty of these images in the real-world unconstrained environments. The proposed algorithm was proved effective through experiments.

Authors: Rajpoot Vikram , Dubey Rahul , Khan Safdar Sardar , Maheshwari Saumil , Dixit Abhishek , Deo Arpit , Doohan Nitika Vats
Published: May 2022

Dental X-ray segmentation uses different image processing (IP) methods helpful in diagnosing medical applications, clinical purposes & in real-time. These methods aim to define the segmentation of various tooth structures in dental X-rays which are utilized to identify caries, tooth fractures, treatment of root canals, periodontal diseases, etc. The manual segmentation of Dental X-ray images for medical diagnosis is very complex and time-consuming from broad clinical databases. Orchard & Bouman is a color quantization approach used to evaluate a successful cluster division using an eigenvector of a color covariance matrix. It is repeated until the number of target clusters is reached. It is optimal for large clusters with Gaussian distributions to integrate different types of information on probabilism and spatial constraint by iteratively upgrading the later probability of the proposed model. Results of segmentation are achieved when iteration converges. Testing the proposed model's effectiveness will involve texture, distance sensing, and nature images. Experimental results show that our model achieves a higher segmentation precision with approximately 78.98 PSNR than MRF models based on pixels or regions.

Authors: Nunes Alexandre Morais
Published: May 2022

O início da comercialização de medicamentos genéricos em Portugal ocorreu em 1990 (Decreto-Lei 81/90) e tinha por objetivo reduzir custos, mantendo a eficácia terapêutica. O presente estudo tem por objetivo avaliar o grau de conhecimento e percepção dos portugueses relativamente ao medicamento genérico e sua utilização. Trata-se de um estudo analítico com recolha de dados baseada na aplicação de um questionário aplicado a 300 utentes do SNS residentes nas cinco regiões de Portugal. A informação foi tratada com recurso ao Software: Excel® e SPSS®. Como principais resultados, a grande maioria (95%) dos inquiridos consumiu medicamentos genéricos (MG). No entanto, apenas 45% os define corretamente e os restantes apresentam dúvidas relativas à sua eficácia quando comparada com medicamentos de marca. Quanto à distribuição geográfica os utentes residentes na região Norte e do Alentejo estão mais familiarizados com o conceito e consumo, ao contrário dos utentes residentes na região Centro e no Algarve. Relativamente à prescrição, 52% referem que os seus médicos promovem a prescrição de MG, 35% referem que na farmácia já substituíram medicamentos de marca por genéricos e 22% referem que substituíram um genérico por outro. Quanto ao preço, todos reconhecem que os medicamentos genéricos têm menor custo, sendo para 70% dos inquiridos um importante fator que prevalece no momento da dispensa. Por fim, concluiu.se que a percepção dos utentes e o conhecimento sobre o medicamento genérico é positiva mas ainda restam dúvidas na população quanto à eficácia do mesmo, sendo necessárias mais ações de sensibilização junto da população.

Comparative analysis of the implementation of the programs of sustainable development of the SIPN in the Northernand Arctic regions of Russia and the world
Authors: Mikhailyuk Oksana N. , Burundukova Elena M.
Published: May 2022

In the last decade, in connection with the industrial development of the northern and Arctic territories, the question arises of preserving the original unique culture of the indigenous peoples of the North (Indigenous Peoples of the North), leading a tribal and semi-tribal way of life. Topical in the light of the increased importance of the Arctic territories of the northern countries today are the issues of protecting the social rights of the indigenous peoples, including the preservation of traditional nature management and the life of ethno-cultural communities. Since the late 1980s to date, important international legal acts have been adopted regarding peoples leading a tribal and nomadic lifestyle: International Convention No. 169 of the International Labor Organization (1989); Kari-Oka Declaration and Charter of the World's Aboriginal Peoples (1992); UN Convention on Biological Diversity (1993); United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (2007). These legal acts significantly increased the rating of the indigenous peoples of the North, raising the problem of their preservation to the level of global importance, and necessitated the development of a support policy. Let us consider the experience of supporting indigenous peoples on the example of countries where the proportion of such a population occupies a significant share (Canada and Norway), as well as the experience of the northern territories of Russia.

Published: May 2022

The subject of the study is the circumstances that must be taken into account when bringing to legal responsibility convicts who have committed a malicious violation of the established procedure for serving a sentence of imprisonment. The purpose of the study is to improve the penal enforcement legislation through the normative consolidation in the Penal Code of the Russian Federation of mitigating and aggravating circumstances affecting the determination of the measure of special punishment, which will significantly expand and clarify the institution of disciplinary proceedings of persons sentenced to imprisonment. The methodological basis of the study consists of comparative legal, formal legal and statistical methods. In particular, the results of a survey conducted by 469 employees of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia and 273 convicts who are malicious violators of the established order of serving a sentence are presented, on the basis of which a comprehensive assessment of the circumstances affecting the measure of punishment for convicts is given. The authors substantiate the conclusion that it is necessary to take into account the considered factual conditions characterizing the commission of a malicious offense and the very personality of the convicted person. On the basis of the conducted research, the authors substantiate the expediency of normative consolidation in the current Penal Enforcement Code of the Russian Federation of circumstances mitigating and aggravating the measure of punishment by convicts, in order to increase the effectiveness of the norms of penal enforcement law regulating the issues of bringing convicts to penitentiary responsibility in places of deprivation of liberty.

The institute of complicity in light legislative textology
Authors: Sitnikova Alexandra I.
Published: May 2022

The article attempts to consider the institution of complicity from new positions based on the provisions of legislative textual theory. From the standpoint of this approach, when studying the criminal law prescriptions of Chapter 7 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, a two-level structure of the normative text of the institute of complicity was revealed: superficial (constructive) and deep (conceptual) levels. As a conceptual basis for the construction of the criminal law prescriptions of Chapter 7 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the legislator used the theoretical provisions of two concepts: the concept of the accessory nature of complicity and the individual responsibility of the accomplices of the crime. The analysis of the constructive level made it possible to identify elements of the criminal law prescriptions of the institute of complicity, and also made it possible to interpret the normative text in a new way.

Authors:   , Soldevilla Paz Carmen Rosana
Published: May 2022

La investigación explora las creencias y lealtades familiares en la construcción del proyecto de vida profesional adolescente. Se empleó una metodología cualitativa de diseño fenomenológico, en donde se utilizó dos instrumentos: la entrevista semi estructurada y el genograma. Se trabajó con 10 adolescentes de 16 años, pertenecientes al último año escolar. Los resultados se analizaron en base a una teoría sistémica, la cual permitió identificar que el sistema familiar deposita en los miembros de la última generación las creencias y expectativas que debe cumplir en su proyecto de vida profesional. Por ende, se evidenció que los adolescentes pueden formar su proyecto profesional, de acuerdo a los deseos familiares, en lugar de gestionar un proyecto individual centrado en sus objetivos personales. Estos hallazgos brindaron información sobre el papel que desarrolla la familia en el proyecto adolescente y cómo su intervención puede mediar su proceso de diferenciación.
The beginning: The poetry of Lina Kostenko during the Thaw
Authors: Mokryk Radomyr
Published: May 2022

A short period of time after Khrushchev’s Secret Speech in 1956 was characterized by relative freedom of speech, plurality of cultural approaches and the easing of censorship in Soviet Ukraine. Under these favorable conditions, a new generation of young writers, artists and intellectuals emerged in Ukraine, known as the Generation of the Sixties, or “the Sixtiers.” Despite the fact that they were part of Soviet culture, they gradually formed a kind of cultural opposition to the official culture. Lina Kostenko played a significant role in this process, and some opposition motifs in her works appeared from the very beginning of her career. This study traces the emergence of some of these motifs, which later became the basis of Kostenko’s literary career: anthropocentrism, solidarity among the oppressed and national issues.

Indywidualność, wolność, czas: „język europejski” versus „język sowiecki” (i „postsowiecki”) w poezji Liny Kostenko
Authors: Pachlovska Oxana
Published: May 2022

Taken together, individuality, freedom, and time are three fundamental categories in the value system of European civilization. The dissident discourse in Lina Kostenko’s poetry, which covers not only the Soviet, but also the post-Soviet period, is structured precisely around these three categories. If under the Soviet totalitarian regime these categories were subject to strict controls, nowadays they are losing meaning. In the meantime, the issue of Ukraine’s European integration (both political and cultural) is far from being solved. Poetry responds to these challenges through a complex “transformation” of ideas into images, symbols, metaphors. This article examines how different temporal dimensions — cosmic, historical, individual, and ancestral — have been interiorized in Kostenko’s poetry, reaching the dimension of authentic freedom in an existential (and existentialist) sense and the sublimation of this freedom through language-logos. In these forms in which time is being interiorized, one can recognize various philosophical references (especially the conceptions of time in Heraclitus and Saint Augustine, but also in Camus through the image of Sisyphus as well as that of the intellectual’s dissident and rebel nature). During various historical periods, Kostenko’s poetry reclaims the subjectivity of human existence, the right to sovereign existence in cosmic and historical time for an individual person as well as for an entire nation.

O presente trabalho investiga a representação da mulher cangaceira a partir da personagem Maria Bonita, da peça Lampião (1953) de Rachel de Queiroz. A personagem é analisada a partir de um contexto de estereotipia de representação do Nordeste e, ainda que, inicialmente, ela apareça valente e insubmissa, muda ao longo da peça e padece de situações de violência contra a mulher. Como referenciais teóricos são utilizados, principalmente, Adriana Negreiros (2018) e Durval Muniz de Albuquerque Júnior (2017).

Aim: Missense mutations of dynactin subunit p150Glued have been associated with multiple neurodegenerative diseases, including Perry syndrome, characterized by inherited parkinsonism, depression, weight loss, and hypoventilation. The current study investigated how the pathogenic mutant p150Glued affects the integrity and function of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic (DA) pathway in vivo. Methods: Using a tetracycline-controlled transcriptional regulation system, transgenic mouse models were generated with selective overexpression of wild-type, motor neuron disease-related G59S mutant, or Perry syndrome-related G71R mutant human p150Glued in midbrain DA neurons. A series of behavioral, neuropathological, neurochemical, electrochemical, and biochemical studies were performed on the mice to examine and compare the pathogenic impact of the two mutant p150Glued on the survival and function of midbrain DA neurons. Results: Compared with non-transgenic control mice, transgenic mice overexpressing wild-type human p150Glued showed neither motor phenotypes nor pathological, functional, or biochemical abnormalities of the nigrostriatal DA pathway. Transgenic mice overexpressing G59S mutant p150Glued displayed weight loss, motor deficits, early-onset defects in dopamine transmission, and early-onset loss of DA neurons and axons. Transgenic mice overexpressing G71R p150Glued mutant exhibited hyperactivities, impaired motor coordination, early-onset dysfunction of dopamine uptake, and late-onset loss of DA neurons and axons. In addition, overexpression of either G59S or G71R mutant p150Glued in midbrain DA neurons preferentially downregulated the expression of dopamine transporter at dopaminergic axon terminals. Furthermore, G59S mutant p150Glued rather than G71R mutant p150Glued formed aggregates in midbrain DA neurons in vivo, and the aggregates trapped dynein/dynactin, co-localized with lysosomes, and upregulated ubiquitination. Conclusion: These findings demonstrate that selective expression of either G59S or G71R mutant p150Glued in mouse midbrain DA neurons leads to progressive degeneration of the nigrostriatal DA pathway and indicate that G59S and G71R mutant p150Glued exhibit differential pathogenic impact on the survival and function of midbrain DA neurons in vivo.

Published: May 2022

Digital information technologies’ rapid development over the recent decade has made the smartphone an integral part of the modern user’s life, turning this gadget into a means for instant information acquisition anywhere and anytime, therefore, library, as one of its most important sources, strives to use mobile technologies as efficiently as possible in the process of providing information to users, including by creating adapted versions of websites for smartphones or mobile applications. The purpose of the work is to determine, basing on domestic and foreign sources, as well as data from the Internet sites where mobile applications are presented, which software products meet the needs of library users, what their peculiarity and advantages and disadvantages are like. The absence of detailed domestic studies based on usability testing, which could have provided more complete information about the requirements for library mobile applications, is noted. The basic criteria used to form the first idea of the value of the presented product as well as the tools allowing to collect more detailed information about its applicability are listed. Based on the selected 35 applications, a list of options that are most popular with developers has been composed, and on the app stores, that provide information about user ratings and reviews, functions that are significant for users have been identified. The paper supports the idea that the development of a mobile application cannot be considered an obligatory requirement, it is noted that when planning its creation, the library should take into account a number of objective factors, for example, the availability of sufficient resources, valuable content, as well as social, educational and gender characteristics of its target audience.

Published: May 2022

Expositions in museums, libraries, other institutions of culture and arts as well as publications about book inscriptions are an illustration of the increased interest to this theme. The Scientific Library of the Tobolsk Historical and Architectural Museum- Reserve contains more than three thousand books with inscriptions and autographs of many famous figures of Siberia, Russia and abroad. Even if the addressee’s surname does not belong to the category of famous and celebrated, the donation record does not become less interesting. The publication presents a brief characteristic of the book collection of the producer A. I. Tunkov, found in the stock of the Scientific Library of the Tobolsk Historical and Architectural MuseumReserve, and attributes the discovered script of the actor M. M. Mikhailovich-Dolsky on the book “Picture Gallery or Systematic Collection of Drawings in all Branches of Human Knowledge” (St. Petersburg, 1872). The author managed to determine the names of the addressees of this inscription, the circumstances that gave rise to its origin. Work in the Scientific Archive of the Tobolsk Historical and Architectural Museum-Reserve and in the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art permitted to find out previously unknown facts from the biography of A. I. Tunkov.

Abstract Purpose Since their introduction, intrauterine devices (IUDs) have been associated with various complications. Avery rare complication is the perforation of the cervix by the strings of the IUD. Purpose of the current study is to present a novel case of cervical perforation by the strings of a copper IUD and to perform a systematic review of the literature. Materials and Methods The patient a 43-year-old attended the gynecology clinic in order to remove her copper IUD. Speculum examination revealed that both the strings of the IUD perforated the anterior lip of the cervix. Management options were offered, the patient opted for a hysteroscopic removal. We searched the electronic databases: MEDLINE, Cochrane Library,Google Scholar,EBSCO for similar cases. Results Electronic search yielded 1821 articles; 8 were selected for inclusion. Mean age of the women was 35,37±7,781, range (26-47) years. One woman (12.5%) was nulligravida;3 women were multigravida (37,5%). Seven women (87,5%) were asymptomatic. Three IUDs (37,5%) were LNG-IUS; 5 IUDs (62,5%) contained copper. Conclusions Cervical perforation by the strings of IUD is an extremely rare clinical entity. It is asymptomatic in general and in most cases the strings of the IUD may be returned back to the endocervical canal after surgical maneuvers.
A Faithful Journey. Following a Married Couple’s Religious Trajectory over the Adult Lifespan
Authors: Bullik Ramona
Published: May 2022

This article addresses the question how the religious narrative identity and subjective religiosity change over the course of 15 years. The cases portrayed are deconverts who have changed their religious affiliations multiple times. It will be carved out what led to their deconversion and what remains as a core of their faith after they have turned away from organized religion for good. Interviews have been conducted at three time points and are analyzed using content analysis. It will become clear that the needs and expectations of the two individuals differ highly, as well as the reasons for turning away from a religious community; yet what is a common core in this joint faithful journey is their need to live their religiosity, now in a private setting.

Neurofilament light chain (Nf-L) is a well-known biomarker for axonal damage, however the corresponding circulating Nf-L analyte in CSF is poorly characterized. We, therefore, isolated new monoclonal antibodies against synthetic peptides, and these monoclonals were characterized for their specificity on brain-specific intermediate filament proteins. Two highly specific antibodies, ADx206 and ADx209, were analytically validated for CSF applications according to well-established criteria. Interestingly, using three different sources of purified Nf-L proteins, a significant impact on interpolated concentrations was observed. With a lower limit of analytical sensitivity of 100 pg/ml using bovine Nf-L as the calibrator, we were able to quantify the Nf-L analyte in each sample and these Nf-L concentrations were highly correlated to the Uman diagnostics assay (Spearman rho= 0.97, P<0.001). In the clinical diagnostic groups, the new Nf-L ELISA could discriminate patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD, n=20) from frontotemporal lobe dementia (FTD, n=20) and control samples with subjective cognitive decline (SCD, n=20). Henceforth, this novel Nf-L ELISA with well-defined specificity and epitopes can be used to enhance our understanding of harmonizing the use of Nf-L as a clinically relevant marker for neurodegeneration in CSF.
