Published: October 2019

This study aims to analyze how the information sources on the internet used as therapy treatment (Web Therapy) by internet addicts, especially social media addicts. The method used is qualitative method based on case study perspective. The method used to collect data incorporates in-depth interview, observation, and literature study. The informants are seven internet addicts who acknowledge themselves as internet addicts, especially social media addicts not by medical diagnostic as one and been using internet sources as a treatment to overcome their mental issue. Triangulation is conducted by interviewing a psychology expert. The study results show that (1) The informants admit that information sources on the internet help them reduce stress while under pressure. (2) The informants admitted the initiative comes within themselves to use information sources on the internet in order to reduce stress. (3) There are some ways for informants to identify their personal problems, that is (a) When they feel like they have no one around to talk with, to share their problems with, they use chatting platform to talk with and positive feedbacks from social media. (b) When they encounter negative psychological condition, they need entertainment from internet sources to be relaxed and refresh. (c) When they need contemplation they will look up for some information sources on the internet which might help them to contemplate. (4) To employ self-healing using Web Therapy, the informants choose (a) Entertaining information sources that can help them laugh and relax (b) Information sources contain references on how to cope with their problems. (c) Information sources that can help them to contemplate when encounter problems. (d) Interactive information sources where they can interact and communicate with friends online. (5) The informants prefer social media such as online games with multiple players, youtube, facebook, online forums longue such as kaskus.com and detik.com, and the form of information including games, movies, music, articles on health, food, humor series, chatting, memes, sarcasms, and satyrs (6) The informants agree that although they feel better after using some information sources on the internet as a treatment for self-healing therapy, but it is only temporary not a permanent one. They are also aware of the significant to face their own problems and cope with it. This study results can be the groundwork for libraries to develop Web Therapy services.

Published: October 2019

Most agricultural innovations were not sustainably adopted due to incompatibility to social and cultural practices. Based on this proposition, this study was designed to analyze the effects of socio-cultural factors on agricultural training programs for farmers by the Benue State Agricultural and Rural Development Authorities (BNARDA) for farmers in Zone C. Seven communities were purposively selected due to their unique cultural practices and a total of 118 respondents were randomly selected for the study. Questionnaire was used as tool for data collection. Descriptive statistics and logit regression were used for data analysis. The results show that there were 22 % of respondents aged between 50-60 years, 72 % of them were married and about 60 % had at least secondary educational attainment. Annual income of respondents was between ₦80,000.00 - ₦100,000.00. About 72 % had farming experience of less than 10 years, and 31 % were cosmopolites. The result further shows that fear of ostracization was among the major reasons that inhibit training program participations. The results of logit analysis show that education (-3.3987), gender (2.268), rivers/streams (-.732) and leadership (2.150) were significantly affect training program. It was concluded that farmer who have strong cultural beliefs were responsible for non- participation in the training program. It was recommended that aggressive advocacy program be embarked by BNARDA before packaging a training program for the farmers.

Published: October 2019

Restricted production facilities for fishermen and marginal land ownership have triggerred low living standard for communities on small islands. This negatively impacts on community members’ ability to fulfill household food needs. Therefore, long-term survival requires a pattern of adaptation by the social environment of the community. This study examines and analyzes the strategies of a single community’s food production and consumption within an island ecosystem. Case study research was chosen in order to provide in-depth exploration and description of the adaptation patterns of the community’s food production and consumption on Karampuang Island. The data were collected using in-depth interviews supplemented by focus group discussions and field observations in order to comprehensively explore the social and economic lives of community members. The results indicated that the adaptation strategies of the community’s food production in Karampuang Island included a double livelihood strategy. Gendered division of labor was found to utilize the optimal potential of household workers: men were responsible to do fishing in the sea and work as wage laborers in Mamuju City while women were responsible for selling the fish to market in Mamuju City market, and worked as laundry women and shopkeepers. The food consumption adaptation strategy among people in Karampuang Island was accomplished by diversifying food between cassava and rice.

Abstract
Background: Uganda is among the 51 countries where cholera outbreaks are common. This report summarizes findings from the epidemiologic investigation, which aimed at identifying the mode of transmission and antibiotic susceptibility patterns of the Vibrio cholerae isolated in Kasese district, Uganda.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out between 2017 and 2018 to describe the epidemiology of the cholera epidemic of in Kasese district, Uganda. Rectal swabs from 69 suspected case-persons were cultured on Thiosulphate-Citrate-Bile-Salts Sucrose (TCBS™; SEIKEN Japan) agar and incubated at 370C for 18-24 hours. The isolates were serotyped with polyvalent 01 antiserum and monovalent serotype Inaba and Ogawa antisera (Denka Seiken, Tokyo, Japan) to determine which serotype was responsible for the outbreak. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method on Mueller-Hinton agar. Questionnaires were administered to a total of 75 participants who were either the cases or relatives to the case. GPS points of the homes of the cases and pictures of potential source infection were also taken and cases were mapped.
Results: A total of 222 cases were recorded in the Kasese District outbreak between the month of September 2017 and January 2018 with the case fatality rate (CFR) of 1.4%. Children below the age of 14 years contributed the biggest proportion of the cases (70%) and out of these, 33% were aged below five years. Culture isolated 69 V. cholerae 01 serotype Inaba from the total of 71 samples. Salmonella typhi was Isolated from the other two samples which were negative for V. cholerae. Antibiotic susceptibility testing showed 100% resistance to Ampicillin and over 50% were resistant to trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole whereas gentamicin showed 100% susceptibility. Environmental assessment revealed rampant cases of open defecation.
Conclusion: Though we did not culture water to confirm contamination with Vibrio cholerae, we hypothesize that the cholera epidemic in Kasese 2017 was sparked off by consumption of contaminated water following the heavy floods that washed away latrines into water sources in Bwera, Isango and Nakiyumbu sub-counties. V. cholerae was also highly resistant to the commonly used antibiotics.

Abstract
Objectives

In an aging population, an increase in the number of elderly cancer patients with cognitive impairment is expected. The possible association between cancer and cognitive impairment is important to elucidate, because it can have a serious impact on quality of life. Here, we focused on glucose metabolism as a factor that links cancer and cognitive impairment.

Results

Thirteen subjects with solid cancers and cognitive impairment were recruited. As a control group, 14 subjects with cognitive impairment alone and 8 subjects with cancer alone were recruited. A Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) and that of β-cell function (HOMA-B) were used. In comparison with patients with solid cancer alone, those with cognitive impairment alone and those with both cancer and cognitive impairment had increased HOMA-IR values. Insulin resistance was increased in patients with cognitive impairment alone and those with both cognitive impairment and solid cancer than in patients without cognitive impairment; however, β-cell function was not affected. The present data indicated that elderly cancer patients with high HOMA-IR score may be at a relatively high risk for developing cognitive impairment. Furthermore, early treatment to reduce insulin sensitivity may prevent cognitive impairment.

Abstract
Background
Domestic violence and abuse damages the health of survivors and increases use of healthcare services. We report findings from a multi-site evaluation of hospital-based advocacy services, designed to support survivors attending emergency departments and maternity services.
Methods
Independent Domestic Violence Advisors (IDVA) were co-located in five UK hospitals. Case-level data were collected at T1 (initial referral) and T2 (case closure) from survivors accessing hospital (T1 N = 692; T2 N = 476) and community IDVA services (T1 N = 3,544; T2 N = 2,780), used as a comparator. Measures included indicators of sociodemographic characteristics, experience of abuse, health service use, health and safety outcomes. Multivariate analyses tested for differences in changes in abuse, health and factors influencing safety outcomes. Health service use data in the six months pre-and post- intervention were compared to generate potential cost savings by hospital IDVA services.
Results
Hospital IDVAs worked with survivors less visible to community IDVA services and facilitated intervention at an earlier point. Hospital IDVAs received higher referrals from health services and enabled access to a greater number of health resources. Hospital survivors were more likely to report greater reductions in and cessation of abuse. No differences were observed in health outcomes for hospital survivors. The odds of safety increased two-fold if hospital survivors received over five contacts with an IDVA or accessed six or more resources / programmes over a longer period of time. Six months preceding IDVA intervention, hospital survivors cost on average £2,463 each in use of health services; community survivors cost £533 each. The cost savings observed among hospital survivors amounted to a total of £2,050 per patient per year. This offset the average cost of providing hospital IDVA services.
Conclusions
Hospital IDVAs can identify survivors not visible to other services and promote safety through intensive support and access to resources. The co-location of IDVAs within the hospital encouraged referrals to other health services and wider community agencies. Further research is required to establish the cost-effectiveness of hospital IDVA services, however our findings suggest these services could be an efficient use of health service resources.

Abstract
Most catalytic, structural and regulatory functions of the cell are carried out by functional modules, typically complexes containing or consisting of proteins. The composition and abundance of these complexes and the quantitative distribution of specific proteins across different modules is therefore of major significance in basic and translational biology. To date, the systematic detection and quantification of protein complexes has remained technically challenging. The chromatographic separation of native protein complexes followed by the mass spectrometric analysis of the proteins contained in sequential fractions results in potentially thousands of protein elution profiles from which, in principle, the presence of specific complexes can be inferred. However, the de novo inference of protein complexes from such datasets has so far remained limited with regard to selectivity and the retrieval of quantitative information.We recently developed a variant of this strategy, complex-centric proteome profiling, which extends the concepts of targeted proteomics to the level of native protein complex analysis. The complex-centric workflow consists of size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to fractionate native protein complexes, DIA/SWATH mass spectrometry to precisely quantify the proteins in each SEC fraction based on a consistent set of peptides, and targeted, complex-centric analysis where prior information from generic protein interaction maps is used to detect and quantify protein complexes with high selectivity and statistical error control via the computational framework CCprofiler. Complex-centric proteome profiling captures the majority of proteins in complex-assembled state and reveals their organization into hundreds of complexes and complex variants observable in a given cellular state. The protocol is applicable to genetically unaltered tissue cultures and adaptable to primary tissue. At present it requires approximately 8 days of wet-lab work, 15 days of MS measurement time and 7 days of computational analysis.

Published: October 2019

Introduction: Ganoderma lucidum is one of the most worldwide known medicinal mushrooms. However, this species of mexican mushroom has notable differences compared to its similar one since it has not been studied enough so it is important to determine its characteristics once it has been cultivated and its extracts have obtained in a standardized form.Method: The polysaccharides of the extracts of Ganoderma lucidum strain CP-145 were measured by the quantum magnetic resonance analyzer MARSIII of Bruce Copen (MARSIII), a proposed technique to estimate values of compounds in the agricultural area, these results were compared with two standardized techniques: Fehling method of sugar reducers and Gas Chromatography - Mass spectrometry (GC-MS), the extracts to be measured were obtained from the traditional culture of basidiocarps (control) and extract of basidiocarps added with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA).Results: The results for the MARSIII quantum magnetic analyzer were 4.967 ± 1.016 and 8.110 ± 1.416% in control extract and extract added respectively, by the Fehling´s method 8.784 ± 2.019% and 41.326 ± 1.430% in control extract and extract added respectively, for CG- MS 7.050 ± 1.527 and 18.456 ± 2.937% in control extract and extract added respectively. Discussion and Conclusion: Significant differences were found on the Fehling´s techniques and on the GC-MS for both extracts, but not in the MARSIII analyzer detection, which indicates that it is not an adequate method to detect variations in the concentrations of polysaccharides in this type of extracts.

AbstractGroundwater is a major source of water supply in China. However, groundwater levels have declined in many regions of China due to groundwater over-extraction, leading to adverse impacts on the eco-environment in China. It is urgent to formulate policy for sustainable groundwater management. In this study, we described and discussed the role of scientific research in China when creating a policy of double-control groundwater management. We used examples of three regions with the groundwater over-extraction problem, i.e., the Sanjiang Plain of northeast China, North China Plain, and the Xilin River Basin of northwest China, to demonstrate the support of scientific research in developing the policy. In addition, it was found that that the interactions between science and policy need to be further improved for the management of groundwater in China. Therefore, we developed a control-loop theory to enhance the interactions between science and policy in China.

Published: October 2019

Abstract
Arsenic contamination in drinking water is a major issue in the present world. Techniques such as oxidation, precipitation and adsorption have been widely used for arsenic removal. The goal of this work is to analyze four case studies where the problem of arsenic contamination in groundwater is faced with an approach that includes experimental activities at laboratory scale and/or pilot scale. The first case study investigates the mechanisms for enhancing arsenic removal with naturally occurring Fe by the addition of an oxidizing agent (KMnO4) or a concentrated basic solution of MnO4− and AlO2−. In the second case study, different experimental tests are carried out at laboratory scale in order to identify the best combination of treatments to be applied at full scale. The third case study shows the results of experimental studies followed by a full-scale upgrading for a drinking water treatment plant (DWTP) with no specific arsenic treatment in the first configuration. Last, the fourth case study investigates the performance of granular ferric oxide (GFO) with arsenic concentrations close to the Italian regulatory limit. A pilot GFO filter was installed in a DWTP. The monitoring results led to the implementation of the GFO filter at full scale.

Published: October 2019

A study on the limnologic conditions of Sermo reservoir was conducted from September 1996 to January 1997. Water samples were collected from six stations every ± 25 days. The samples from each station were collected from 2 to 3 different depths of water. The objectives of this research were to know the physically, chemically and biologically water quality of Sermo reservoir. Results indicated that the water quality of Sermo reservoir was suitable for fishes. The concentration of NH4+, NO3-, PO43-, dan SO4= indicated that the water fertility could support the growth of plankton as natural food for fishes and other aquatic organisms. However, the water quality and its productivity have not been stabile yet. Phytoplankton was more dominance than zooplankton. Number of phytoplankton species were between 10 - 15 species, that was dominated by Nitzschia sp., Nostoc sp. and Peridinium. Zooplankton species observed were Brachionus sp. and Cyclops sp. Any aquatic plants were not found.
