Periodic law: new formulation and equation description
Authors: Imyanitov Naum S. 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
The atomic weight, nuclear charge, electron configuration of an atom and the total number of i-electrons in an atom belonging to i-block (i = s, or p, or d, or f) are considered as the fundamental characteristics of an element (atom). Only in the latter case, the true periodicity is achieved: the repetitions occur at regular intervals. The total number of i-electrons in an atom belonging to i-block is used as the new basis for the description of the periodicity. This made possible to propose a new formulation of the Periodic law and to describe the Periodic law by an equation. The equation provides opportunities for large-scale prediction of the properties of elements and their compounds; it does not require special knowledge to work with it. Theoretical and applied aspects of the application of the new formulation and equation are outlined. Predictions are made for proton affinity and gas phase basicity of 20 elements, constants of inductive effects of 185 atoms and groups, electronic parameters of 222 neutral ligands. The suitability of the equation is exemplified by the description of the properties of atoms and elements, such as ionization energy, electron affinity, proton affinity, electronegativity, covalent atomic radii and the enthalpy of element formations in the gas phase. The equation makes possible to describe also the properties of compounds and their fragments: the acidic properties of the hydrogen compounds of the elements, the acidic properties of protonated atoms and molecules, gas phase basicity and proton affinity of compounds, inductive effects of ligands in coordination chemistry and substituents in organic chemistry, electronic parameters of neutral ligands, the electron effect constants of coordinating metals.

Authors: Starker Anne , Zeiher Johannes , Kuntz Benjamin 
Published: December 2019

Zusammenfassung
Die Vermeidung des Rauchens und der Passivrauchbelastung von Kindern und Jugendlichen ist ein wichtiges gesundheitspolitisches Ziel. Die wiederholt erhobenen Daten der KiGGS-Studie zeigen einen deutlichen Rückgang bei Tabakkonsum und Passivrauchbelastung. Dazu dürften sowohl Maßnahmen der Tabakkontrollpolitik als auch Präventionsprogramme beigetragen haben. Dennoch besteht noch Handlungsbedarf bei der Verbesserung der Tabakkontrollpolitik, vor allem im Bereich des Tabakwerbeverbots.
A developmental view on incrementation in language change
Authors: Cournane Ailís 
Published: December 2019

AbstractAcquisition is an intuitive place to look for explanation in language change. Each child must learn their individual grammar(s) via the indirect process of analyzing the output of others’ grammars, and the process necessarily involves social transmission over several years. On the basis of child language learning behaviors, I ask whether it is reasonable to expect the incrementation (advancement) of new variants to be kicked off by and sustained by the acquisition process. I discuss literature on how children respond to input variation, and a series of new studies experimentally testing incrementation, and argue that at least for some phenomena, young children overgeneralize innovative variants beyond their input. I sketch a model of incrementation based on initial overgeneralization, and offer further thoughts on next steps. Much collaborative work remains to precisely link analogous dynamic phenomena in learning and change.
Computational historical linguistics
Authors: Jäger Gerhard 
Published: December 2019

AbstractComputational approaches to historical linguistics have been proposed for half a century. Within the last decade, this line of research has received a major boost, owing both to the transfer of ideas and software from computational biology and to the release of several large electronic data resources suitable for systematic comparative work. In this article, some of the central research topics of this new wave of computational historical linguistics are introduced and discussed. These areautomatic assessment of genetic relatedness,automatic cognate detection,phylogenetic inferenceandancestral state reconstruction. They will be demonstrated by means of a case study of automatically reconstructing a Proto-Romance word list from lexical data of 50 modern Romance languages and dialects. The results illustrate both the strengths and the weaknesses of the current state of the art of automating the comparative method.
Neues zuüberhauptundsowieso
Authors: Boonen Ute K. , Fisseni Bernhard 
Published: December 2019

AbstractThis article investigates the use ofüberhauptandsowiesoin German and Dutch. These two words are frequently classified as particles, if only because of their pragmatic functions. The frequent use of particles is considered a specific trait common to German and Dutch, and the description of their semantics and pragmatics is notoriously difficult. It is unclear whether both particles have the same meaning in Dutch (where they are loanwords) and German, whether they can fulfil the same syntactic functions and to what extent the (semantic and pragmatic) functions ofüberhauptundsowiesooverlap. There has already been linguistic research onüberhauptandsowiesoby Fisseni (2009) using the world-wide web and by Bruijnen and Sudhoff (2013) using the EUROPARL corpus. In the present study we critically evaluated the corpus study, integrating information on original utterance language and discussing the adequacy of this corpus. Moreover, we conducted an experimental survey collecting subjective-intuitive judgements in three dimensions, thus gathering more data on sparse and informal constructions.By using these complementary methods, we obtain a more nuanced picture of the use ofüberhauptandsowiesoin both languages: On the one hand, the data show where the use of both words is more similar and on the other hand, differences between the languages can also be discerned.
Von Satzbauplänen zu Nominalgruppenbauplänen
Authors: Hennig Mathilde 
Published: December 2019

AbstractIn contemporary German, nominal structures are often prefered to verbal sentences. Since it is rather common to convert main verbs into nouns by the means of derivation, verbal propositions can easily be integrated into new sentences. As the main verb‘s valency is maintained, verbal complements can be transfered into noun phrases as well – now functioning as modifiers. Thus, contemporary German offers a wide range of possibilities of transferring propositions from sentences into noun phrases. On the other hand, it seems to be easier to transfer certain types of sentence structures into nominal structures than others. The article explores the possibilities and limitations of this process on the basis of an empirical study, in which native speakers of German were asked to „translate“ sentences into noun phrases. According to the results of the study, the possibilities and limitations of the transformation of verbal sentences into nominal structures depend on the following factors: amount of complements, form of complements and modifiers, formal similarities and differences of verbal complements and nominal modifiers.

AbstractGómez-Carmona, CD, Bastida-Castillo, A, Rojas-Valverde, D, de la Cruz Sánchez, E, García-Rubio, J, Ibáñez, SJ, and Pino-Ortega, J. Lower-limb dynamics of muscle oxygen saturation during the back-squat exercise: effects of training load and effort level.J Strength Cond Res34(5): 1227–1236, 2020—The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of strength training on lower limb muscle oxygenation. The sample consisted of 12 male subjects (22.4 ± 1.73 years; 1.81 ± 0.08 cm height and 77.76 ± 8.77 kg body mass). Six different strength training stimuli were analyzed, based on the training variables: load (60–75% 1 repetition maximum [1RM]) and level of effort (LE) (E1: 4 × 8 [20RM], E2: 4 × 12 [20RM], E3: 4 × 16 [20RM], E4: 4 × 4 [10RM], E5: 4 × 6 [10RM], and E6: 4 × 8 [10RM]) in the squat exercise up to 90° with a 2-second stop between repetitions to avoid the myotatic reflex. Oxygen saturation at the beginning of the series (SmO2start), oxygen saturation at the end of the series (SmO2stop), percentage of oxygen saturation loss (▽%SmO2), and reoxygenation time (SmO2recT) were assessed using a near-infrared spectroscopy device. In addition, the percentage of mean propulsive velocity loss (%MPVL) was recorded using a linear transducer. The results suggested an influence of LE and training load on muscle oxygenation. A greater LE was directly associated with SmO2recT (r= 0.864), ▽%SmO2(r= 0.873), and %MPVL (r= 0.883) and inversely with SmO2stop (r= −0.871). When the same LE was used (E1 vs. E4, E2 vs. E5, and E3 vs. E6), it was found that the stimuli with a higher load had a lower SmO2recT, ▽%SmO2, and %MPVL and a higher SmO2stop. Muscle oxygen saturation was found to be minimal (%SmO2= 0) in stimuli with a LE greater than 60% (E3 and E6). The SmO2variables studied in the present research could be considered as an easier and more useful method for understanding skeletal muscle fatigue during resistance training.

Published: December 2019

Significance Statement
Although sickle cell trait and sickle cell disease are associated with CKD among black people in the United States, longitudinal data on GFR decline in such individuals is sparse. In a cohort of black patients having sickle cell trait and sickle cell disease was associated with a significantly faster annual eGFR decline, and eGFR declined significantly faster in patients with sickle cell disease than in those with sickle cell trait. Male sex, diabetes mellitus, and high baseline GFRs were associated with faster eGFR decline in both phenotypes. In sickle cell trait, high hemoglobin S and elevated hemoglobins F and A2 were associated with a slower eGFR decline. Physicians caring for black patients need to consider sickle cell trait and sickle cell disease status and interactions with comorbidities when evaluating CKD risk.

Background
Sickle cell trait and sickle cell disease are thought to be independent risk factors for CKD, but the trajectory and predictors of kidney function decline in patients with these phenotypes are not well understood.

Methods
Our multicenter, observational study used registry data (collected January 2005 through June 2018) and included adult black patients with sickle cell trait or disease (exposures) or normal hemoglobin phenotype (reference) status (ascertained by electrophoresis) and at least 1 year of follow-up and three eGFR values. We used linear mixed models to evaluate the difference in the mean change in eGFR per year.

Results
We identified 1251 patients with sickle cell trait, 230 with sickle cell disease, and 8729 reference patients, with a median follow-up of 8 years. After adjustment, eGFR declined significantly faster in patients with sickle cell trait or sickle cell disease compared with reference patients; it also declined significantly faster in patients with sickle cell disease than in patients with sickle cell trait. Male sex, diabetes mellitus, and baseline eGFR ≥90 ml/min per 1.73 m2 were associated with faster eGFR decline for both phenotypes. In sickle cell trait, low hemoglobin S and elevated hemoglobin A were associated with faster eGFR decline, but elevated hemoglobins F and A2 were renoprotective.

Conclusions
Sickle cell trait and disease are associated with faster eGFR decline in black patients, with faster decline in sickle cell disease. Low hemoglobin S was associated with faster eGFR decline in sickle cell trait but may be confounded by concurrent hemoglobinopathies. Prospective and mechanistic studies are needed to develop best practices to attenuate eGFR decline in such patients.
Modified Ratio Estimators of Population Mean Based on Ranked Set Sampling
Authors: Khan Zahid , Ismail Muhammad 
Published: December 2019

In this paper, we propose modified ratio estimators using some known values of coefficient of variation, coefficient of skewness and coefficient of kurtosis of auxiliary variable under ranked set sampling (RSS).Â The mean square error (MSE) of the proposed ratio estimators under ranked set sampling is derived and compared with some existing ratio estimators under RSS. Through this comparison, we prove theoretically that MSC of proposed estimators is less than some existing ratio estimators in RSS under some conditions. The MSE of proposed estimators along with some existing estimator are also calculated numerically. We observe from numerical results that the suggested ratio estimators are more efficient than some existing ratio estimators under RSS.

The study assessed women participation in organizational activities in a democratic society as perceived by stakeholders' in North-West Nigeria. The research design that was used for this study is the descriptive survey design The design allows for the use of questionnaires, which generated valid data that were analyzed. The population of this study consisted of all the stakeholders in education that comprised the students, graduates, teachers, school administrators, Ministry personnel, Quality Assurances officers in the North-west zone of Nigeria. The target population consisted of all stakeholders in the following states: Sokoto, Zamfara, and Kano in the North-west zone of Nigeria. Multi-stage sampling technique was adopted needed for this study. The total population of stakeholders in North-west Nigeria was 1,970 out of this numbers, 1261 respondents were proportionately selected for the study. Two research questions were raised as follows: (1) What are the stakeholdersperception of the influence of women participation in organizational activities in North-west Nigeria. (2).What are the stakeholdersperception of empowering women to engage in politics an enduring democracy in North-west Nigeria. The findings of this study revealed that more than half of the stakeholders perceived the influence of WCCE graduates on participation in organizational activities in North-west, In addition the result also indicated that more than half of the stakeholders perceived the contributions of graduates of WCCE to graduates empowerment in politics in North-west,The study recommended that Women were adjudged by the respondents as organizers of homes, and families. Therefore women graduates participation in organization activities in their communities should double their effort so as to continue to serve as a role model to other women in the society for socio-economic development.. NGOs and State government should provide additional support for women to have access to loans and market facilities. Providing them with soft loans would be required.

Abstract
This community service aims to direct the community to a healthy lifestyle related to reproductive health. The subjects of service are high school adolescents who are vulnerable to the negative influence of social and environmental media. Reproductive health is very important for both men and women. Reproductive health is defined as a whole physical, mental and social well-being not free from disease or disability in all matters relating to the reproductive system, its functions and processes. This service at the high school level is very necessary to be carried out by using location search methods, approaches to the school and providing workshops to students. With this service can provide students with knowledge and insight into reproductive health and sexual deviations that they must avoid. Adolescent reproductive health is an inseparable part of mental health, mental health and social health. Teenagers must understand and know their sexual reproductive health so as not to produce sexual deviations that will harm themselves and their families.
