The Behavior of Carbon Nano-tubes (CNTs) as a Modifier to Resist Aging and Moisture Damage in Asphalt
Authors: Arifuzzaman Mohammad , Tarefder Rafiqul A. , Islam Muhammad S. 
Published: April 2020

Background:
Moisture damage and aging take place together in asphalt binder as it is
on road-pavement in service life and, therefore, quite challenging to overcome. Various
techniques, such as crumb rubber, fibers, etc. have been applied to improve the behaviour of
asphalt materials. The use of nanomaterials was found as one of the effective techniques to
develop temperature performances of asphalt binder.

Methods:
This study investigated moisture damage and aging of asphalt binder mixing with the
carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The base binder was primarily
modified with 4% SBS polymer. Later on, CNTs were mixed in different percentages (i.e. 0.5%,
1%, and 1.5%) by weight with the 4% styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS) modified binders. A
special functionalized (-NH3) AFM probe with spring constant 3.44 N/m was utilized to complete
the study.

Results:
The results were compared with 4% SBS modified asphalt with and without CNT
addition. The adhesion forces of dry samples were found smaller as compared to wet and aged
asphalt samples of with and without CNT. However, the adhesion forces of wet and aged samples
with the investigated percentage of CNT performed considerably better than those without CNT.

Conclusion:
This result indicated significant improvement of asphalt to overcome moisture
damage and aging owing to exposure in the outdoor environment as a paving material. This study
recommends any dosage (i.e. 0.5 to 1.5% by weight) of CNT with 4% SBS modified asphalt to
resist moisture damage and aging in the field.
A Novel Hybrid Approach for Multi-Objective Bi-Clustering in Microarray Data
Authors: Trivedi Naveen , Kanungo Suvendu 
Published: April 2020

Background:
Today bi-clustering technique plays a vital role to analyze gene expression data in microarray technology. This technique performs clustering on both rows and columns of expression data simultaneously. It determines the expression level of genes set under the subset of several conditions or samples. Basically, obtained information is collected in the form of a sub matrix comprising of microarray data that satisfy coherent expression patterns of subsets of genes with respect to subsets of conditions. These sub matrices are represented as bi-clusters and overall process is called bi-clustering. In this paper, we proposed a new meta-heuristics hybrid ABC-MWOA-CC which is based on artificial bee colony (ABC), modified whale optimization algorithm (MWOA) and Cheng and Church (CC) algorithm to optimize the extracted bi-clusters. In order to validate this algorithm, we also delve into finding the statistical and biological relevancy of extracted genes with respect to various conditions. However, most of the bi-clustering techniques do not address the biological significance of genes belonging to extracted bi-clusters

Objective:
The major aim of the proposed work is to design and develop a novel hybrid multi-objective bi-clustering approach for in microarray data to produce desired number of valid bi-clusters. Further, these extracted bi-clusters are to be optimized to obtain optimal solution.

Method:
In the proposed approach, a hybrid multi-objective bi-clustering algorithm which is based on ABC along with MWOA is recommended to group the data into desired number of bi-clusters. Further, ABC with MWOA multi-objective optimization algorithm is applied in order to optimize the solutions using variety of the fitness functions.

Results:
In the analysis of the result, the multi-objective functions which are employed to judge the fitness calculation like Volume Mean (VM), Mean of Genes (GM), Mean of Conditions (CM) and Mean of MSR (MMSR) leads to improve the performance analysis of the CC bi-clustering algorithm on real life data set such as Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell cycle gene Expression datasets.

Conclusion:
The effectiveness of the ABC-MWOA-CC algorithm is comprehensively demonstrated by comparing it with well-known traditional ABC-CC, OPSM and CC algorithm in terms of VM, GM, CM and MMSR.

The Buffering Effect of Health Care Provider Video Biographies When Viewed in Combination With Negative Reviews: “You Can’t Fake Nice”
Authors: Perrault Evan K , Hildenbrand Grace M 
Published: April 2020

Background
Patients seek information from numerous sources before choosing a primary care provider; two of the most popular sources are providers’ own online biographies and patient rating websites. However, prior research has generally only examined how these sources influence patients’ decisions in isolation.

Objective
This study aimed to determine how primary care providers’ online biographies and online patient ratings interact to affect patients’ decision making, especially in the face of negative reviews.

Methods
An 8-condition online experiment (n=866) was conducted, manipulating patient ratings and the timing of viewing a provider’s online biographical video (pre- or postrating viewing).

Results
When participants were shown a short video introduction of a provider after reading predominantly negative reviews a positive expectancy violation occurred, which was also related to more positive perceptions of the provider. When exposed to all negative reviews, 43% of participants indicated they would still choose to make an appointment with the provider, with many indicating that the video provided the evidence needed to help make up their own minds.

Conclusions
These findings are especially relevant to health care organizations seeking to combat a recent rise in fake patient reviews. Providing patients with realistic expectations of the care that clinicians can offer via their own online biographical videos can help counteract negative patient comments online.
Nomadic ethics and thoughtful ethics
Authors: Martínez Posada Jorge Eliecer , Gamboa Suárez Audin Aloiso , Villa Alicia Ines 
Published: April 2020

Speak of the "subject" and "ethics" today must start from a different place or a non-place that understands the subject in his becoming and transformation, identifying him to recognize him, conceiving him as a subject in transit, a nomadic subject, which can be reinvented in an ethical exercise that is reflective of himself and himself, without forgetting his constant encounter with the other. This article of reflection aims to make an understanding and a journey through ethical developments, approaching a genealogy of it. Similarly, it tries to relate to the construction of subjectivity from the intimate, the public and the private, as a modes of action of the ethical in the subject and finally reflect on the transpositions of a nomadic ethic within multiple diasporas that allow a vision of modern ethics and possibility in the configuration of the subjects and their subjectivities. This reflection manages to conclude that ethics is always in gestation and reconfiguration depending on the new demands of a global system, as a form of power that encourages resistance as a way of transposing the ethical devices that shape the behavior and habits of the subjects
Does Firms' Dissemination of Corporate Social Responsibility Information through Facebook Matter for Corporate Reputation?
Authors: Maniora Janine , Pott Christiane 
Published: April 2020

ABSTRACT
This paper examines the impact of firms' dissemination of corporate social responsibility (CSR) information through Facebook on corporate reputation. We investigate this relationship empirically by using a corporate reputation index that tracks nonprofessional stakeholders' daily perceptions of corporate reputation over time. We find that firms disclosing CSR information on Facebook experience a decrease in reputation. If we differentiate Facebook postings based on whether their content provides environmental or social information, we only find a negative effect on reputation for firms posting social information (quality effect). However, reputation is not affected by the number of CSR postings (quantity effect).
Data Availability: Data are available from the commercial databases and public sources identified in the paper.
CE Article: Nursing-Placed Midline Catheters and Ultrasound-Guided Peripheral IVs Promote More Appropriate Catheter SelectionCE
Authors: Santucci Sarah E. , Trerotola Scott O. 
Published: April 2020

Highlights

Abstract
Purpose: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) are serious complications of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs). Because of these risks, midline catheters (MCs) and ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous catheters (USGPIVs) were added to the capabilities of the host institution’s nursing-based venous access team (VAT), which operates under the direction of Interventional Radiology (IR). This report evaluates this effort to reduce PICCs and MCs through appropriate patient-centered device choice.
Materials: A retrospective analysis of PICCs, MCs, and USGPIVs placed in inpatients in a large tertiary care academic hospital was conducted, using the VAT’s record supplemented with data from the IR quality assurance database. Analysis of hospital records of upper extremity DVT and CLABSI was also performed.
Results: The VAT documented 33,113 PICC, 12,135 MC, and 14,300 USGPIV placements from September 2001 to March 2018. From the peak of PICC placements in 2006 to the peak of MCs in 2010, PICCs decreased 23% (P &lt; 0.01), while MCs increased 93% (P &lt; 0.001). Following full implementation of USGPIV in January 2016, MCs decreased 34% from 2015 to 2016 (P &lt; 0.01) with no concurrent decrease in PICCs (P = 0.72). CLABSI rates per 1000 central venous catheter days decreased from 1.5 to 0.44 (P &lt; 0.01), coinciding with an unrelated CLABSI reduction initiative. No interpretable trends in DVT counts were discovered.
Conclusions: Appropriate use of MCs and USGPIVs by an IR-supported VAT significantly decreased PICCs and MCs, respectively.
