Authors: Jiang-Feng Sun , Xing-Wang Li , Yuan Ding , Jian-He Du
Published: November 2019

Background:

Due to the openness of wireless fading channel, it is easy to be disturbed by other transmission signals and noises. Encryption and decryption can guarantee the security of signals, and Physical Layer Security (PLS) which uses the features of fading channels itself to ensure the security of signal transmission has also been widely concerned. In addition, considering the wide applications of κ-μ shadowed distribution model and the advantages of Multiple-Input Multiple- Output (MIMO) technology, the confidentiality over Single-Input Multiple-Output (SIMO) independent κ-μ shadowed model has been studied.

Objective:

To introduce the factors affecting the confidentiality on SIMO independent κ-μ shadowed model.

Methods:

Novel representations of the lower bound on SPSC and SOP are deduced over independent κ-μ shadowed model. The method of moment matching to deal with infinite series is adopted.

Results:

Through theoretical simulation and statistical simulation, the validity of our analysis is verified. We also get the curves for SOP and SPSC when the parameters of the channel change.

Conclusion:

Under the condition of larger P, large L , large μD, large mDand small kDcan improve the secrecy performance on independent κ-μ shadowed network.

Published: November 2019

Community‐based dental education (CBDE) has the potential to positively impact the educational process in a manner that both contributes to educational outcomes and shapes the learner's behavior. The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between dental students' intended practice location and the size of their hometown and to assess any impact their CBDE rotation in a rural location had on practice location intention. From March 7, 2016, to August 12, 2018, fourth‐year students at one U.S. dental school were invited to complete a ten‐item questionnaire prior to and after their four‐week clinical rotations at a rural clinic. Of the 123 dental students on rotation at the clinic during this time, 106 completed the pre‐rotation survey and 112 the post‐rotation survey, for response rates of 86% and 91%, respectively. Prior to the rotation, 58.6% selected one of the rural locations as an ideal practice location, and that percentage increased slightly to 61.4% after the rotation; the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.984). The results did show a significant increase from pre to post rotation for women intending to practice in rural communities (p=0.0413). This study found that students' intent to practice in a rural location was not significantly affected by a clinical rotation in a rural clinic; however, there was strong evidence that students from rural communities intended to practice in rural communities after graduation.

Published: November 2019

Changes in U.S. health care delivery systems and Commission on Dental Accreditation standards provide impetus for interprofessional education (IPE) and collaborative practice, but roadmaps for engaging dental and dental hygiene faculty to incorporate IPE in a systematic manner are limited. The purpose of this report is to describe the process for creating a strategy and gathering a variety of baseline data to use for determining objectives and metrics and the subsequent development of an IPE strategic plan at the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill Adams School of Dentistry (SOD). SOD IPE committee members included representation from the UNC Schools of Dentistry, Medicine, Pharmacy, and Business. A three‐phase framework was developed. Phase 1 (IPE assessment) was an internal environmental scan including a 2017 faculty survey, departmental mapping of IPE activities, comparison of UNC with national results on the IPE component of the American Dental Education Association (ADEA) survey of dental school seniors (2016 graduating class), identification of faculty joint/adjunct appointments at other UNC schools, and a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats (SWOT) analysis. Phase 2 (visioning) consisted of development of IPE mission, vision, and priorities. In Phase 3 (implementation), priorities were developed. Data‐gathering led to a strategic plan with three objectives: 1) increase faculty engagement and recognition, 2) develop predoctoral dentistry and dental hygiene IPE curricula, and 3) develop an infrastructure that supports IPE. Specific initiatives and activities, supporting metrics, and estimated costs were developed for each objective. The framework guided a systematic, transparent, and organized process for collecting and monitoring the evidence and directing activities. A three‐year strategic plan for IPE was developed in 2017, and implementation is ongoing.

Published: November 2019

Background and objectives

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome is a form of thrombotic microangiopathy caused by dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway. There is evidence showing complement activation in other thrombotic microangiopathies. The aim of this study was to evaluate complement activation in different thrombotic microangiopathies and to monitor treatment response.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

Complement activation was assessed by exposing endothelial cells to sera or activated-patient plasma—citrated plasma mixed with a control sera pool (1:1)—to analyze C5b-9 deposits by immunofluorescence. Patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (n=34) at different stages of the disease, HELLP syndrome (a pregnancy complication characterized by hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet count) or severe preeclampsia (n=10), and malignant hypertension (n=5) were included.

Results

Acute phase atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome–activated plasma induced an increased C5b-9 deposition on endothelial cells. Standard and lower doses of eculizumab inhibited C5b-9 deposition in all patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome, except in two who showed partial remission and clinical relapse. Significant fibrin formation was observed together with C5b-9 deposition. Results obtained using activated-plasma samples were more marked and reproducible than those obtained with sera. C5b-9 deposition was also increased with samples from patients with HELLP (all cases) and preeclampsia (90%) at disease onset. This increase was sustained in those with HELLP after 40 days, and levels normalized in patients with both HELLP and preeclampsia after 6–9 months. Complement activation in those with malignant hypertension was at control levels.

Conclusions

The proposed methodology identifies complement overactivation in patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome at acute phase and in other diseases such as HELLP syndrome and preeclampsia. Moreover, it is sensitive enough to individually assess the efficiency of the C5 inhibition treatment.

Published: November 2019

El desarrollo de colecciones es un proceso que permite a las bibliotecas contar con el material bibliográfico adecuado para atender las necesidades de su comunidad de usuarios. En este proceso, una de las restricciones principales es la reducción en la asignación del presupuesto. Por lo tanto, se requiere analizar la colección bibliográfica con base en indicadores cuantitativos para conocer las características y necesidades informativas de la comunidad. La evaluación cuantitativa es una herramienta que facilita al responsable bibliotecario la toma de decisiones para la adquisición y descarte de material bibliográfico. Como propuesta, este trabajo utilizó un modelo de minería de datos para analizar los indicadores relacionados con: 1) número de volúmenes por subclase temática, 2) número de usos por subclase temática, y 3) número de volúmenes en uso por subclase temática. El modelo se validó con un estudio estadístico de las transacciones de préstamos tanto a domicilio como en sala registrados en una de las bibliotecas de la Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán durante el periodo de mayo de 2011 a junio de 2017.

Published: November 2019

O ameloblastoma é considerado o tumor odontogênico clinicamente mais comum, segundo Neville. Tem origem epitelial odontogênica, podendo surgir dos restos da lâmina dentária de órgão de esmalte em desenvolvimento, das células basais da mucosa oral e do revestimento epitelial de um cisto odontogênico. São tumores de crescimento lento, porém invasivos e não possuem predileção por gênero. O objetivo deste estudo é relatar um caso de ameloblastoma sólido em um paciente de 12 anos apresentado ao serviço de Cirurgia Oral e Maxilofacial no Hospital Federal dos Servidores do Estado com história de mudança de posição e mobilidade da porção anterior dos dentes mandibulares e aumento do volume de sínfise. A análise da radiografia panorâmica revelou uma grande lesão radiolúcida e unilocular, que se estende do dente 34 ao dente 45, sugerindo o diagnóstico de ameloblastoma unicístico. A tomografia computadorizada mostrou uma lesão expansiva com substancial perda óssea cortical. A biópsia foi realizada e o histopatológico revelou que se tratava de um ameloblastoma sólido com padrão plexiforme. O tratamento de escolha foi excisão e ostectomia periférica.
