One Health approach: exploring associated factors for antimicrobial resistance in isolates from companion animals in Medellín, Colombia
Authors: Yepes Orozco Sara , Henao Villegas Santiago 
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance in companion animals is a neglected threat that can compromise public health.
Despite this, there is little information and interest in its regard.
Objective: To establish the factors associated with antimicrobial resistance and multidrug resistance in canine and feline patients from a veterinary clinic in Medellín.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed with 41 canines and 6 felines with positive bacteriological cultures.
Data about clinical, zoographic, zootechnic and pet-human interactions factors were collected through surveys to animals’ guardians andclinical records.
A descriptive and association analysis between those factors, antimicrobial resistance and multidrug resistance was performed using bivariate statistics followed by a binomial logistic regression model with multidrug resistance as the outcome.
Results: Sixty-nine bacteria were isolated from 57 samples.
Out of these, 89.70% were resistant and 48.60% showed multidrug resistance.
Clinical, zootechnical, and pet-human interaction factors are mostly associated with multidrug resistance rather than resistance to at least one antibiotic.
Cohabitation with health personnel and supplement consumption stood out as variables associated with multidrug resistance.
Conclusions: This study explores a pathway for antimicrobial resistance research highlighting its occurrence in companion animals and its risk to public health.
It identifies factors associated with resistance and proposes further research to determine a possible interspecies transfer and whether these factors exert selective pressure on the animal microbiome.
Additionally, it emphasizes the need to explore this phenomenon from the understanding of the dynamics of dual health and the affective bond between humans and animals.

Authors: Díaz Díaz Miguel 
Published: December 2024

El comportamiento del consumidor en relación con la estrategia de precios de la empresa es un área crítica de estudio en marketing.
Este artículo explora cómo diferentes estrategias de precios influyen en las decisiones de compra de los consumidores.
Se examinan conceptos clave como la elasticidad de la demanda, la percepción de valor y la sensibilidad al precio.
Los hallazgos indican que los consumidores no responden de manera uniforme a los cambios de precios; su comportamiento varía según factores como el ingreso, la categoría del producto y las alternativas disponibles.
Estrategias como la discriminación de precios, descuentos y precios psicológicos pueden ser efectivas, pero deben ser implementadas con cuidado para evitar efectos negativos en la percepción de la marca. Además, el artículo destaca la importancia de comprender el contexto cultural y económico del mercado objetivo para diseñar estrategias de precios efectivas.
En conclusión, una estrategia de precios bien diseñada no solo puede aumentar las ventas y la cuota de mercado, sino también mejorar la satisfacción y la lealtad del cliente.

Authors: Omambia Andrew 
Published: December 2024

As young people increasingly engage in online activities, particularly for learning purposes, their practices are influenced by their circumstances and needs in the digital age. However, there is a broader concept encompassing the need for young people to develop novel skills to effectively and safely navigate the evolving digital media environment. In light of these challenges, this study is guided by two key research questions that is to what extent are young learners safe online?, what technologies are available to ensure online safety?. The study holds significant importance in addressing the challenges faced by young learners in the increasingly digitalized world. The review concentrated on academic publications spanning from 2013 to 2020 and utilized various online databases such as ACM Digital Library, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, DARE, and popular databases like Gale. A number of key insights emerged from this study including risk does not necessarily lead to harm among the young people, however, more often than not, this is the case and young people are exposed to both risks as well as harm. Young people understand that engaging in online environments come with various responsibilities. Policy and practices that respond to online safety of young people ought to consider ways in which they can maximize the benefits. It is essential to protect young learners online and ensure that their safety is guaranteed. Even the best and widely used software should be secured and be made safe for young learners since they are the most vulnerable and targeted online. The study proposed the following recommendations: Understanding the target audience will help guide the design process. Engage with young learners throughout the design process to gather their input and feedback. Ensure that the online learning experience prioritizes privacy and security. Ensure online learning experience is accessible to all learners, including those with disabilities.

AbstractThe integration of organic materials with colloidal quantum dots (QDs) has the merits the advantages of the molecular diversity and photoelectric tunability for ultrasensitive photodetector applications. Herein, a uniform CsPbBr3 QD layer is sandwiched between the same poly‐(N, N′‐bis‐4‐butylphenyl‐N, N′‐bisphenyl) benzidine (Poly‐TPD) and phenyl‐C61‐butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) (1:1) organic blend films. The CsPbBr3 QD layer efficiently absorbs the excitation light, where the generated exciton can sufficiently diffuse to the interface of QD and organic blend layers for efficient charge separation and effective gate modulation. Owing to the desirable heterojunction at the interface, the dark current is substantially suppressed, while the photocurrent is increased in comparison with those of pristine QDs photodetectors. The ultrafast charge transfer time (≈300 ps) from QDs to organic blend layer measured by the time‐resolved transient absorption spectroscopy is potentially benefit the enhanced electron–hole pair dissociation. The solution‐processed, organic (Poly‐TPD:PCBM blend)‐modulated CsPbBr3 QDs photodetector are exhibited ultrasensitive photoresponse abilities in terms of in terms of noise equivalent power (NEP = 1 × 10−16 W Hz−0.5), ILight/IDark ratio (2 × 103), and the a specific detectivity (D* = 4.6 × 1013 Jones). The results will be a starting point for ultrasensitive next‐generation light detection technologies.

Published: December 2019

AbstractAs one of the most promising cathodes for next‐generation lithium ion batteries (LIBs), Li‐rich materials have been extensively investigated for their high energy densities. However, the practical application of Li‐rich cathodes is extremely retarded by the sluggish electrode–electrolyte interface kinetics and structure instability. In this context, piezoelectric LiTaO3 is employed to functionalize the surface of Li1.2Ni0.17Mn0.56Co0.07O2 (LNMCO), aiming to boost the interfacial Li+ transport process in LIBs. The results demonstrate that the 2 wt% LiTaO3‐LNMCO electrode exhibits a stable capacity of 209.2 mAh g−1 at 0.1 C after 200 cycles and 172.4 mAh g−1 at 3 C. Further investigation reveals that such superior electrochemical performances of the LiTaO3 modified electrode results from the additional driving force from the piezoelectric LiTaO3 layer in promoting Li+ diffusion at the interface, as well as the stabilized bulk structure of LNMCO. The supplemented LiTaO3 layer on the LNMCO surface herein, sheds new light on the development of better Li‐rich cathodes toward high energy density applications.

Published: December 2019

AbstractMicrofluidics is a continuously growing field with potential not only in the fields of medical, chemical, and bioanalysis, but also in the domains of optics and information technology. Here, a pressure‐driven 3D microfluidic chip is demonstrated with multiple logic Boolean functions. The presence and absence of fluid at the output of the gates represent the binary signals 1 and 0, respectively. Therefore, the logic gates do not require a specially functionalized liquid to operate. The chip is based on a multilevel of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)‐based polymeric sheets with aligned microchannels while a flexible polyimide‐based sheet with a cantilever‐like structure is embedded to enable a one‐directional flow of the liquid. Several Boolean logic functions are realized (AND, OR, and XOR) using different fluids in addition to a half adder digital microfluidic circuit. The outputs of the logic gates are designed to be at different heights within the 3D chip to enable different pressure drops. The results show that the logic gates are operational for a specific range of flow rates, which is dependent on the microchannel dimensions, surface roughness, and fluid viscosity and therefore on their hydraulic resistance. The demonstrated approach enables simple cascading of logic gates for large‐scale microfluidic computing systems.

Published: December 2019

AbstractSodium superionic conductor (NASICON) cathodes are attractive for Na‐ion battery applications as they exhibit both high structural stability and high sodium ion mobility. Herein, a comprehensive study is presented on the structural and electrochemical properties of the NASICON‐Na3+yV2−yMny(PO4)3 (0 ≤ y ≤ 1) series. A phase miscibility gap is observed at y = 0.5, defining two solid solution domains with low and high Mn contents. Although, members of each of these domains Na3.25V1.75Mn0.25(PO4)3 and Na3.75V1.25Mn0.75(PO4)3 reversibly exchange sodium ions with high structural integrity, the activity of the Mn3+/Mn2+ redox couple is found to be absent and present in the former and latter candidate, respectively. Galvanostatic cycling and rate studies reveal higher capacity and rate capability for the Na3.75V1.25Mn0.75(PO4)3 cathode (100 and 89 mA h g−1 at 1C and 5C rate, respectively) in the Na3+yV2−yMny(PO4)3 series. Such a remarkable performance is attributed to optimum bottleneck size (≈5 Å2) and modulated V‐ and Mn‐redox centers as deduced from Rietveld analysis and DFT calculations, respectively. This study shows how important it is to manipulate electronic and crystal structures to achieve high‐performance NASICON cathodes.
Testing for paternal influences on offspring telomere length in a human cohort in the Philippines

Published: December 2019

AbstractObjectivesTelomeres, emerging biomarkers of aging, are comprised of DNA repeats located at chromosomal ends that shorten with cellular replication and age in most human tissues. In contrast, spermatocyte telomeres lengthen with age. These changes in telomere length (TL) appear to be heritable, as older paternal ages of conception (PAC) predict longer offspring TL. Mouse‐model studies raise questions about the potential for effects of paternal experiences on human offspring TL, as they suggest that smoking, inflammation, DNA damage, and stressors all shorten sperm TL. Here, we examined whether factors from the paternal environment predict offspring TL as well as interact with PAC to predict offspring TL.Materials and MethodsUsing data from the Philippines, we tested if smoking, psychosocial stressors, or shorter knee height (a measure of early life adversity) predict shorter offspring TL. We also tested if these interacted with PAC in predicting offspring TL.ResultsWhile we did not find the predicted associations, we observed a trend toward fathers with shorter knee height having offspring with longer TL. In addition, we found that knee height interacted with PAC to predict offspring TL. Specifically, fathers with shorter knee heights showed a stronger positive effect of PAC on offspring TL.DiscussionWhile the reasons for these associations remain uncertain, shorter knee height is characteristic of earlier puberty. Since spermatocyte TL increases with the production of sperm, we speculate that individuals with earlier puberty, and its concomitant commencement of production of sperm, had more time to accumulate longer sperm telomeres.

AbstractDie mechanische Flexibilität von kovalenten Einkristallen ist ein faszinierendes und wenig verstandenes Phänomen. Wir stellen hier das erste Beispiel eines plastisch flexiblen 1D‐Koordinationspolymers vor. Die Verbindung [Zn(μ‐Cl)2(3,5‐Cl2Py)2]n ist über zwei kristallographische Flächen flexibel und bleibt bemerkenswerterweise auch bei 180° Biegung als Einkristall intakt. Mittels einer Kombination von Mikroskopie‐, Beugungs‐ und spektroskopischen Methoden untersuchen wir die strukturelle Reaktion des Kristallgitters auf mechanische Verformung. Laut den Ergebnissen scheint nicht die Deformation der kovalenten Polymerketten für die beobachtete makroskopische Biegung verantwortlich, sondern eine Verschiebung der Koordinationspolymerketten. Basierend auf experimentellen und theoretischen Erkenntnissen schlagen wir ein neues Modell für die mechanische Flexibilität von 1D‐Koordinationspolymeren vor. Darüber hinaus liefern unsere Berechnungen eine Ursache für die unterschiedlichen mechanischen Eigenschaften dieser Verbindung und eines strukturell ähnlichen elastisches Materials.
Genesis of magnetic anomalies and magnetic properties of archaeological sediments in floodplain wetlands of the Fossa Carolina

Published: December 2019

AbstractFloodplain wetlands are complex systems influenced by many natural and anthropogenic operators. Due to the influence of high and varying groundwater table and high organic contents, geophysical prospection in wetland floodplains quickly reaches the limits of its effectiveness. At the Early Medieval canal Fossa Carolina in southwest Germany, a study design employing magnetometry, drillings, sampling, and in situ rock magnetic measurements was used for environmental magnetic interpretation of magnetic anomalies in magnetograms and sediment layers. This approach offers reliable archaeological interpretation of magnetic anomalies and magnetic properties under the site specific sedimentological conditions of a floodplain wetland. It was also found that man‐made magnetic anomalies in the floodplain are due to the genesis of different remanent magnetizations – specifically, greigite (Fe3S4) can cause distinct magnetic anomalies in floodplains that can be recognized readily in surface magnetic data.

Published: December 2019

Abstract

Background
Serious preventable surgical events still occur despite considerable efforts to improve patient safety. In addition to learning from retrospective analyses, prospective risk-assessment methods may help to decrease preventable events further by targeting perioperative hazards. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the methods used to identify perioperative patient safety risks prospectively, and to describe the risk areas targeted, the quality characteristics and feasibility of methods.

Methods
MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL and Cochrane databases were searched, adhering to PRISMA guidelines. All studies describing the development and results of prospective methods to identify perioperative patient safety risks were included and assessed on methodological quality. Exclusion criteria were interventional studies, studies targeting one specific issue, studies reporting on structural factors relating to fundamental hospital items, and non-original or case studies.

Results
The electronic search resulted in 16 708 publications, but only 20 were included for final analysis, describing five prospective risk-assessment methods. Direct observation was used in most studies, often in combination. Direct (16 studies) and indirect (4 studies) observations identified (potential) adverse events (P)AEs, process flow disruptions, poor protocol compliance and poor practice performance. (Modified) Healthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (HFMEA™) (5 studies) targeted potential process flow disruption failures, and direct (P)AE surveillance (3 studies) identified (P)AEs prospectively. Questionnaires (3 studies) identified poor protocol compliance, surgical flow disturbances and patients' willingness to ask questions about their care. Overall, quality characteristics and feasibility of the methods were poorly reported.

Conclusion
The direct (in-person) observation appears to be the primary prospective risk-assessment method that currently may best help to target perioperative hazards. This is a reliable method and covers a broad spectrum of perioperative risk areas.

AbstractObjectivesWe performed this retrospective cohort study to establish which factors are mostly indicative of the appearance of hemorrhagic transformation (HT) and of its time course in a sample of nonlacunar ischemic strokes.Materials and MethodsIn 402 patients with nonlacunar ischemic stroke (75.0 ± 12.7 years, 192 male), clinical, laboratory, and neuroimaging variables obtained during the first 3 days of hospitalization were compared between patients with and without HT at computer tomography scan.ResultsHT was documented in 129 patients (32.1%), including 36 with parenchymal hematoma (PH), after a median time of 6 days (range 1–27). Many variables were univariately associated with HT, but only 5 of them were confirmed in Cox regression (Hazard Ratio, 95% Confidence Interval): maximum cerebral lesion diameter (CLD) in cm (1.12, 1.06–1.18; p = .0001), hemoglobin in g/dl (1.16, 1.06–1.27; p = .002), blood glucose in mmol/L (1.10, 1.03–1.18; p = .007), prior anticoagulant therapy (1.82, 1.10–3.03; p = .02), and edema with mass effect (1.72, 1.08–2.75; p = .02). Thus, the most significant predictor was CLD. The overall risk of HT was minimum for CLD < 2 cm (1.5%), intermediate for CLD ≥ 2 and < 5 cm (22%), and maximum for CLD ≥ 5 cm (58%). The residual probability of having HT decreased progressively over time, and a simple formula is proposed to predict, from CLD in cm, when the probability of HT falls below 10%.ConclusionsThe main determinant of HT was CLD, a simple quantitative parameter that could prove useful, in particular, in deciding the timing of anticoagulation in cardioembolic stroke patients.
Carbon disclosure and financial performance: UK environmental policy
Authors: Alsaifi Khaled , Elnahass Marwa , Salama Aly 
Published: December 2019

AbstractThe outcome of carbon disclosure, the importance of which has grown remarkably in recent years to become a strategic decision‐making issue for organisations in today's competitive environment, is a subject of lively debate but remains under‐researched in the environmental accounting literature. This study is motivated by this research gap and the growing interest in assessing the financial consequences of corporate involvement in climate change beyond regulatory compliance, as evidenced by firms' voluntary participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project. Using the resource‐based view of the firm as a theoretical framework and linking it to carbon disclosure through Carbon Disclosure Project, we conceptualise and empirically investigate the impact of adopting proactive carbon management policies and communicating them to stakeholders, focusing on the financial performance of the top FTSE350 companies between 2007 and 2015. By developing a comprehensive financial performance index and controlling for several firm characteristics, we find strong evidence that voluntary carbon disclosure is positively associated with firm financial performance. The findings in this paper provide new insights and policy implications for managers, financial stakeholders, and regulators.
