Published: June 2020

Abstract
Background
The purpose of this study was to investigate clinical features, prognostic factors, and overall survival (OS) in surgical patients with gastric remnant cancer (GRC).

Methods
A retrospective analysis of patients with gastrectomy for pT1–4 gastric cancer between October 1972 and February 2014 at our institution was performed. Clinical characteristics were compared between patients with GRC and those with primary gastric cancer (PGC). Multivariable Cox regression analysis was performed to determine the prognostic factors for OS in patients with GRC. A propensity score-matched cohort was used to investigate OS between the GRC and PGC groups.

Results
Of a baseline cohort of 1440 patients, 95 patients with GRC were identified. Patients with GRC underwent more multivisceral resections (p < 0.001) than patients with PGC despite lower tumor stages (p = 0.018); however, R0 resection rates were not significantly different (p = 0.211). The postoperative overall (p = 0.032) and major surgical (p = 0.021) complication rates and the 30-day (p = 0.003) and in-hospital (p = 0.008) mortality rates were higher in patients with GRC. In multivariable analysis, the only prognostic factors for worse OS in GRC were higher tumor stage (p < 0.001) and the occurrence of postoperative complications (p < 0.001). OS between propensity score-matched GRC and PGC groups was not significantly different (p = 0.772).

Conclusions
GRC required more invasive surgery than PGC; however, the feasibility of R0 resection was similar. The prognostic factors of GRC were similar to those of PGC, and OS was not significantly different between both groups. Patients with GRC benefit from extensive surgery when performed with low morbidity and mortality.

Published: June 2020

ABSTRACTIntroductionThe purpose of this study was to compare leg, sagittal plane knee and ankle, and frontal plane ankle stiffness over the course of a prolonged treadmill run in neutral and stability footwear.MethodsThirteen male habitual rearfoot runners completed two biomechanical testing sessions in which they ran for 21 min at their preferred running speed in a neutral shoe, then changed either into the same neutral shoe or a stability shoe and ran a further 21 min on a force-instrumented treadmill. Three-dimensional kinematics and kinetics were recorded at the beginning and end of each 21-min interval.ResultsNo differences were observed in leg stiffness between footwear conditions throughout the run (P> 0.05). Knee stiffness increased during the first 21 min (P= 0.009), whereas ankle stiffness reduced at minute 21 (P= 0.004) and minute 44 (P= 0.006). These changes were modulated by an increase in ankle joint compliance and knee joint moments. No differences were observed between footwear conditions for leg and sagittal plane lower extremity joint stiffness (P> 0.05). During the second half of the run, frontal plane ankle stiffness increased in the stability shoe but decreased in the neutral shoe (P= 0.019), attributed to reduced eversion range of motion caused by the added medial post.ConclusionsThese results suggest that over the course of a prolonged treadmill run, shock attenuation strategies change, which may affect the knee joint.

OBSERVÂNCIA DE PRECEDENTES E GESTÃO DE DEMANDAS REPETITIVAS POR MEIO DO APRENDIZADO DE MÁQUINA
Authors: Sabo Isabela Cristina , Rover Aires José 
Published: June 2020

O Poder Judiciário se apresenta como um dos focos de debate sobre a implementação de tecnologias relacionadas à Inteligência Artificial (IA), de onde advém a técnica de aprendizado de máquina (ML - machine learning). Nesse contexto, apresenta-se o problema de pesquisa: é possível que o aprendizado de máquina contribua para o funcionamento do sistema de precedentes? Partindo-se de uma hipótese inicial positiva e empregando-se o método indutivo, o artigo expõe um estudo de dois casos, com o levantamento de dados referentes a dois institutos processuais: um relacionado à não observância dos precedentes, a Reclamação; e outro pertinente às técnicas para julgamento de casos repetitivos, o Incidente de Resolução de Demandas Repetitivas (IRDR). A fim de contextualizar o tema e os objetivos do estudo, a pesquisa apresenta a evolução do conceito de jurisdição, reportando-se às alterações trazidas pelo Código de Processo Civil (CPC) de 2015; e, ainda, as noções de E-Judiciário e E-Jurisdição combinadas com as funcionalidades da IA, bem como trabalhos relacionados utilizando a técnica de ML. Com isso, a proposta de possíveis aplicações envolvendo a técnica de ML se fundamenta na identificação desses dois institutos relacionados ao funcionamento do sistema de precedentes, que podem ser aperfeiçoados com a implementação da tecnologia, no intuito de atingir um modelo de jurisdição inteligente.
Ethical challenges in pathogen sequencing: a systematic scoping review
Authors: Johnson Stephanie , Parker Michael 
Published: June 2020

Background: Going forward, the routine implementation of genomic surveillance activities and outbreak investigation is to be expected. We sought to systematically identify the emerging ethical challenges; and to systematically assess the gaps in ethical frameworks or thinking and identify where further work is needed to solve practical challenges. Methods: We systematically searched indexed academic literature from PubMed, Google Scholar, and Web of Science from 2000 to April 2019 for peer-reviewed articles that substantively engaged in discussion of ethical issues in the use of pathogen genome sequencing technologies for diagnostic, surveillance and outbreak investigation. Results: 28 articles were identified; nine United States, five United Kingdom, five The Netherlands, three Canada, two Switzerland, one Australia, two South Africa, and one Italy. Eight articles were specifically about the use of sequencing in HIV. Eleven were not specific to a particular disease. Results were organized into four themes: tensions between public and private interests; difficulties with translation from research to clinical and public health practice; the importance of community trust and support; equity and global partnerships; and the importance of context. Conclusion: While pathogen sequencing has the potential to be transformative for public health, there are a number of key ethical issues that must be addressed, particularly around the conditions of use for pathogen sequence data. Ethical standards should be informed by public values, and further empirical work investigating stakeholders’ views are required. Development in the field should also be under-pinned by a strong commitment to values of justice, in particular global health equity.
When and Why Consumers “Accidentally” Endanger Their Products
Authors: Shani Yaniv , Appel Gil , Danziger Shai , Shachar Ron 
Published: June 2020

In this article, we examine whether consumers may “accidentally” endanger a product they own when a new version of the product is introduced. We propose that owners endanger their product when they want to upgrade to a new version but have difficulty justifying the upgrade and that owners find justification more difficult when a new version offers an improved design but does not offer a significant technological improvement. Owners endanger their product hoping that it will be fortuitously damaged. Product damage provides owners with a good reason to upgrade. Focusing on iPhone as a case study, field data and experiments provide evidence for product endangering, and they support the role of justification in three ways. First, as hypothesized, endangering occurs when the new product offers an improved design but does not offer a significant technological improvement. Second, owners are less likely to endanger a product that is under warranty; therefore, damage to it will not enable upgrading. Third, owners are more likely to endanger their product when their justification concerns are heightened.This paper was accepted by Yan Chen, decision analysis.
Against the grain: midwives' experiences of facilitating home birth outside of guidelines
Authors: Larner Lisa , Hooks Claire 
Published: June 2020

Background Midwifery standards promote autonomous decision-making and informed choice, resulting in maternal home birth choices which may contravene guidelines. There is a paucity of evidence exploring midwives' experiences of managing these choices. Aims To explore the lived experiences of midwives facilitating home birth outside of guidelines. Methods A qualitative design using an interpretive hermeneutic cycle to analyse semi-structured interviews. Findings Participants reported confidence in supporting maternal choices, identifying barriers including other birth supporters. Perceived levels of risk, previous experience and safety concerns impacted on confidence. Peer, unit and professional midwifery advocate (PMA) support were identified as being beneficial to midwives. Recommendations Expansion of birth choices clinics; implementation of dedicated home birth teams; guideline review for midwife led birthing units; expansion of the PMA role; implementation of a structured debriefing service and further research looking at women's choices, and the impact of the loss of midwifery supervision.

Published: June 2020

Background Applications for babies to be taken in to care at birth are at a national high. This results in significantly impaired life outcomes. Aims To identify therapeutic mechanisms and interventions to support those at risk of having their baby removed from them at birth and explore the literature in this area. Findings Overall, eight articles including a total of 2 539 participants were selected for inclusion, reporting outcomes from Canada, Australia, England, the Netherlands and US. Findings were categorised into three overarching themes and seven subthemes. Conclusion A cycle of maltreatment model is presented. Social stigma, distrust of services and inequalities remain significant barriers to help-seeking. The development of trusting professional relationships, goal setting and early and sustained interventions may be key in developing effective future interventions of support.

Abstract. Praptiwi, Wulansari D, Fahoni A, Harnoto N, Novita R, Alfridsyah, Agusta A. 2020. Phytochemical screening, antibacterial and antioxidant assessment of Leuconotis eugenifolia leaf extract. Nusantara Bioscience 12: 79-85. Traditionally, sitahe (Leuconotis eugenifolia (Wall. Ex G. Don) A.DC) has been used to maintain stamina by Aceh peoples, Indonesia. The use of L. eugenifolia mainly as a spice on a traditional cuisine “ie bu peudah”. This research was conducted to determine the phytoconstituents of L. eugenifolia leaf extracts, and to investigate their antioxidant potential using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging and antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Phytochemical screening was carried out using standard methods. L. eugenifolia leaves were extracted successively with n-hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and water. Obtained extracts were tested qualitatively for antioxidant and antibacterial by the TLC-bioautography method, followed by quantitative analysis to determine the MIC and IC50 value using the microdilution method on 96-well microplate. The results showed that it contained alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, triterpenoids, saponins, phenolics, and tannins. The highest levels of phenolic (259.0486 ± 0.1203 mg GAE/g extract) and flavonoids (84.6575 ± 0.0237 mg QE/g extract) were found in ethyl acetate extract, and dichloromethane, respectively. The antibacterial activity of n-hexane and dichloromethane extracts is moderate against E. coli, and weak against S. aureus. Ethyl acetate extract, methanol, and water extracts have very strong antioxidant activity. L. eugenifolia leaf extracts may be promising new antioxidant sources.

Published: June 2020

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of a multicomponent mathematics intervention (modified schema-based instruction, video anchors, and goal setting with self-graphing) on mathematical problem-solving skills of secondary students with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Three participants were taught to solve percent of change word problems, which involved calculating the discounted price of an item or activity after using a coupon and then determining whether they had enough money to make the purchase. Results of the multiple probe across participant design indicate a functional relation between the intervention and problem solving, and all participants were able to generalize skills from word problems to real-world stimuli (i.e., coupons, receipts, menus). Implications for practice and future research are discussed.

Authors: John Aesha , Bednar Hannah 
Published: June 2020

Abstract
This article reports findings from a qualitative analyses of interviews with five first-generation immigrant Indian mothers caring for a child with a developmental disability in the United States. The interviews aimed to probe the reasons underlying maternal stress while dealing with their child's special educators and doctors. Thematic analyses of the interviews yielded five key themes: (a) lack of partnership, (b) preparation, education, and research, (c) cultural differences, (d) lack of resources and funding, and (e) lack of skilled and trained educators. The first three themes were common across teachers and doctors, whereas, the final two themes were unique to teachers. Findings are discussed in the context of implications for practice, research, and inclusion of students with a developmental disability.

Published: June 2020

Krypton planar laser-induced fluorescence (Kr PLIF) was demonstrated at
a repetition rate of 100 kHz. To achieve this increased rate, a custom
injection-seeded optical parametric oscillator was built to
efficiently convert the 355 nm output of a high-energy,
high-repetition-rate nanosecond burst-mode laser to 212.56 nm to
excite Kr from the ground to the

of flow structures and mixture fraction was demonstrated using
detection speeds 100 times greater than previously attained with a
femtosecond laser source. The increase in repetition rate makes
time-resolved Kr PLIF relevant for high-speed flows in particular.

INTRODUCTION:
We have reported previously that fecal DNA testing of TWIST1 methylation in combination with the fecal immunochemical test for hemoglobin (FIT) (combination test) is useful for colorectal neoplasia screening. In this study, using larger sample sizes, we studied the clinical performance of the combination test for the detection of colorectal neoplasia and, especially, advanced colorectal adenoma.

METHODS:
We performed a prospective study in which FIT, fecal DNA testing of TWIST1 methylation, and colonoscopy were performed on 372 patients with colorectal neoplasia and 71 subjects without colorectal neoplasia. We assessed the individual clinical performance of each of FIT and fecal DNA testing of TWIST1 methylation and of the combination test for the detection of colorectal neoplasia including advanced adenoma based on morphologic subtypes.

RESULTS:
The FIT alone had a sensitivity of 7.5% (3/40) for nonadvanced adenoma, 32.3% (41/127) for advanced adenoma, and 93.7% (192/205) for colorectal cancer and a specificity of 87.3% (62/71). The combination test had a sensitivity of 35.0% (14/40) for nonadvanced adenoma, 68.5% (87/127) for advanced adenoma, and 95.6% (196/205) for colorectal cancer and a specificity of 80.3% (57/71). For morphological subtypes of advanced adenoma, the sensitivity of FIT was only 28.2% (20/71) for polypoid type and 16.1% (5/31) for nonpolypoid type, whereas the combination test increased the sensitivities to 64.8% (46/71) and 71.0% (22/31), respectively.

DISCUSSION:
The combination of the fecal DNA test with FIT seemed to be useful to detect colorectal neoplasia and, especially, advanced adenoma of the nonpolypoid type.
