AbstractCystic Echinococossis is a serious zoonotic parasitic infection caused by Echinococcus granulosus species complex. The current study was designed to evaluate the in-vitro antiprotoscolices effect of alcoholic extracts of three selected medicinal plants including Buxus Wallichiana, Berberis vulgaris and Euphorbia heliscopia against Echinococcus granulosus. Fertile hydatid cysts were collected from livestock and viability of the protoscolices was confirmed by 0.1% eosin red stain method. Protoscolices were subjected to three different concentrations of alcoholic extracts (10mg/ml, 30mg/ ml and 50mg/ml) for 10, 20 and 30 min. The highest efficacy was shown by B. vulgaris (97.92%) followed by B. wallichiana (65.98%) and E. heliscopia (61.22%) respectively, after exposure of 30 minutes at 50mg/ml concentration, that lead to the significant reduction in the viability of protoscolices. Alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins and saponnins were identified qualitatively and weighted quantitatively, that might help in the identification of bioactive compounds involved in selective action on the tegument layer of protoscolices. Alcoholic extracts of all the three selected medicinal plants showed toxic activities against protoscolices of Echinococcus granulosus. These findings suggest that all the selected medicinal plants could be a promising source of potent antiprotoscolices effect. However, the mechanism by which plant extracts killed protoscolices and also their safety for living cells are unclear and need to be investigated further.
Modeling Product Choices in a Peer Network
Authors: Fang Di , Richards Timothy J. , Grebitus Carola 
Published: October 2019

AbstractConsumers are uncertain about their preferences for innovative product attributes until the first trial. They search for information as a means of reducing uncertainty and improving the likelihood that they will be satisfied with their purchase. One way to receive information is through peer networks. As a peer network is often a priori unknown, we conduct an experiment to solicit self-reported peer nominations. We compare two mechanisms through which peer networks operate: Strength of social ties and perceived peer expertise, to draw inferences regarding consumers’ preference reversal after exposure to peer recommendations. Our results indicate that perceived source expertise influences preferences while the closeness of social relationships has no statistically significant impact.
The Impact of Medical Marijuana Laws and Dispensaries on Self-Reported Health
Authors: Andreyeva Elena , Ukert Benjamin 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Growing evidence suggests that medical marijuana laws have harm reduction effects across a variety of outcomes related to risky health behaviors. This study investigates the impact of medical marijuana laws on self-reported health using data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System from 1993 to 2013. In our analyses we separately identify the effect of a medical marijuana law and the impact of subsequent active and legally protected dispensaries. Our main results show surprisingly limited improvements in self-reported health after the legalization of medical marijuana and legally protected dispensaries. Subsample analyses reveal strong improvements in health among non-white individuals, those reporting chronic pain, and those with a high school degree, driven predominately by whether or not the state had active and legally protected dispensaries. We also complement the analysis by evaluating the impact on risky health behaviors and find that the aforementioned demographic groups experience large reductions in alcohol consumption after the implementation of a medical marijuana law.

Potentialities of Investigation of Reservoir Hydrophobization by Compilation of X-Ray Core Tomography and Lateral Logging
Authors: Galkin S.V. , Kolychev I.Yu. , Savitskii Ya.V. 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
—The potentialities of studying rock wettability by X-ray core tomography are considered using Visean terrigenous reservoirs of the Solikamsk depression as an example. The studies included comparison of the tomograms of core samples in a dry state and saturated of sodium iodide solution, which acts as a radiopaque analog of formation water. Differences in impregnation of the core samples, characterizing their wettability, have been established. According to the tomography data, in the hydrophilic samples the solution filled all pores, except for a small portion of the largest ones. In the hydrophobic samples, there was no impregnation of both small and large pores in the central zone. Based on the tomograms, the rocks were divided into groups by their wettability: absolutely hydrophobic, with strong signs of hydrophobicity, with signs of hydrophobicity, and hydrophilic. Comparison of the results of tomography with the standard approach showed that the Tulbovich method commonly used for the study area does not fully reflect the rock wettability.
Comparison of the results of core tomography and study of thin sections with the results of electrometric logging shows their good agreement. The rocks with absolute hydrophobicity established by tomography have an anomalously high electric resistivity, &gt;1000 Ohm∙m, and the rocks with signs of hydrophobicity, &gt;120 Ohm∙m. For the hydrophilic intervals, the electric resistivity values are significantly lower, from 17 to 100 Ohm∙m.
Thin sections of the core samples were studied. Their microscopic analysis has shown a higher content of organic matter in the hydrophobic rocks as compared with the hydrophilic ones. Few exceptions might be due to the study of only local thin sections of the samples.
Thus, rock wettability can be monitored by electrical methods, especially lateral logging. The results of the assessment of rock wettability by core study and well logging can be compiled for the exploration of Visean deposits of the Solikamsk depression. Geological models constructed with regard to the recognized zones of hydrophilic and hydrophobic reservoirs can be effectively used to optimize exploration of deposits, especially reservoir flooding.
Paleoproterozoic Metavolcanosedimentary Sequences of the Yenisei Metamorphic Complex, Southwestern Siberian Craton (Angara–Kan Block): Subdivision, Composition, and U–Pb Zircon Age

Abstract—The results of this study reveal the chemical heterogeneity of the Yenisei metamorphic complex, which is a series of blocks within the Yenisei Fault of the southern Yenisei Ridge (Angara–Kan block). The Yenisei complex is composed of four metamorphic sequences: amphibolite–marble–paragneiss (volcanic–carbonate–terrigenous), amphibolite–orthogneiss (volcanic), marble–paragneiss (carbonate–terrigenous), and paragneiss (terrigenous). Study of the nature of the protoliths of metamorphic rocks shows that gneisses and schists of Sequences I and IV correspond to polymict or arkose sandstones and siltstone–mudstones and can be classified as first-cycle sediments. Garnet–two-mica schists of Sequence III correspond in composition to mudstones and show evidence of recycling. Metavolcanic sequence II is composed of andesite–dacite–trachyrhyodacite, leucobasalt–basalt, and basalt–basaltic-andesite–trachyandesite formations. The metasedimentary rocks are 1.2–1.4 times richer in REE and Th than the average PAAS. The high-alumina varieties have high contents of K, Rb, HFSE, Fe, Cr, Ni, and Co. The total similarity of the average trace-element contents in the rocks of the two complexes suggests that the composition of the Kan granulites was inherited by metasedimentary rocks of the Yenisei complex. The U–Pb zircon dates for granite veins cutting gneisses of amphibolite–marble–paragneiss Sequence I limit the deposition age to 1.84–1.85 Ga and indicate that these rocks were deposited before the emplacement of postcollisional granites of the Taraka massif and thus predate the major orogenic events within the Angara–Kan block. Therefore, these rocks can be correlated with the lower part of the Urik–Iya graben section. The metamorphic rocks from the lower parts of the sections of the Yenisei complex and the Subluk Group formed during the same rifting phase of sedimentation. The amphibolite–orthogneiss (volcanic) sequence formed in the Angara–Kan block of the Yenisei Ridge during the second stage (1.74 Ga). The volcanic rocks formed in an extension setting and thus can be correlated with the emplacement of within-plate granites of the Taraka massif. In the Sayan area, terrigenous sediments and volcanic rocks of various compositions accumulated at the second stage (1.75–1.70 Ga) during the intracontinental extension. Therefore, there is a good correlation between the ages and geodynamic settings of deposition of late Paleoproterozoic volcanic and volcanosedimentary complexes of the Yenisei Ridge and the Sayan region.
Russian companies in terms of intellectual economy: problems of formation, estimation and development
Authors: Izmailova M. A. 
Published: October 2019

Purpose: the main goal of the work is to study conceptual approaches to the essential basis, architectonics and conditions for the formation of intelligent companies, as well as to identify criteria for assessing the maturity of intelligent systems at micro and macro levels.Methods: the study is based on a systematic approach to the understanding of intellectual capital, which defines it as a complete structured system, which is the basis of an intellectual company. The concept of intellectual organization was considered in logical connection with the concept of learning organization, which, in turn, was the result of the evolutionary development of the theories of human and intellectual capital, organizational culture, the theory of network organization.Results: the analysis of conceptual approaches to the interpretation of the basic categories of research – "intellectual capital" and "intellectual company". The conceptual scheme is presented and the structural and functional analysis of intellectual organization is carried out. Conditions of formation of the intellectual company are revealed, the contour of application of intellectual systems in a number of spheres of economic activity is outlined. Examples of foreign and Russian companies positioning themselves as intellectual are given. A review of methodological approaches to assessing the maturity level of intellectual systems of companies with the possibility of building national and global ratings of intellectual companies. The assessment of a real situation on indicators of intellectual assets of the Russian companies at the national and global levels is given. The measures aimed at Russia becoming one of the leaders of intellectual progress are proposed.Conclusions and Relevance: in the context of the growing intellectual trend of the global economy, Russia has no other way than the way of intellectualization of the national economy, the key resource of which is the human intellect. The increase in the number of companies implementing the latest technological solutions in their business processes, expanding the scope of application of intelligent systems in their production activities, creating and maintaining an intellectual culture of work focused on meeting the needs of modern society, including innovative products, is certainly the measure that can bring the country into the mainstream of technological progress.At the same time, the analysis of Rospatent data shows an ambiguous situation: in 2018, the marked increase in patent activity occurred at the expense of Russian applicants only in respect of industrial designs, in respect of utility models and patents for inventions – a significant backlog from foreign applicants. In the globalaspect, the gap in Russia's patent activity from foreign countries is even more threatening. All this makes urgent measures to stimulate the activity of Russian companies to increase their intellectual assets and increase their competitive power in the intellectual property market.
Bioética y contracultura: el Biopunk y ética DIYBio

Published: October 2019

El transhumanismo convive con la humanidad. La presente reflexión analiza el Biopunk, movimiento contracultural que rompen los esquemas tradicionales de investigar del Big Science. Aquel enmarca su gestión investigativa en la ética DIYBio (Do It Yourself, hágalo usted mismo), enriqueciendo los canales tecno científicos desde la Small Science. Realizando un rastreo desde el movimiento del Punk Rock de los años setenta, pasando por el Cyber y Cypherpunk, llegando al Biopunk y el accionar de los biohackers, se contrasta sus bases éticas con la autonomía, vulnerabilidad y justicia propias de la bioética. Se identifica un campo el cual la bioética no ha ocupado; su encuentro con el Biopunk y la manera como podría aquella realizar su aproximación al mencionado movimiento contracultural.
Castración química, última opción en pacientes pedófilos y pederastas, considerando su autonomía y dignidad
Authors: Méndez-Bejarano Sandra Mayerly 
Published: October 2019

La castración química surge como una posibilidad para el manejo de la pedofilia y la pederastia. Consiste en un tratamiento médico hormonal reversible aplicado -en muchos casos- para disminuir los niveles de testosterona, la libido y, por ende, la actividad sexual, y como resultado final, reducir las agresiones sexuales de alta incidencia en Colombia y en el mundo. Esta intervención médica ha sido utilizada en distintos países desde la década de los sesenta y, actualmente, el Congreso de la República de Colombia pretende promulgar una ley para contener la violencia sexual en niños y adolescentes.
La aplicación de la castración química siendo un procedimiento con efectividad cuestionable y con efectos secundarios importantes, genera dilemas éticos, clínicos y sociales, acerca de la autonomía y la dignidad del pedófilo y del pederasta. Por tal razón, en este estudio de caso se utiliza la metodología de Diego Gracia, pertinente para resolver este tipo planteamientos complejos y hallar otras alternativas para el tratamiento de dichas enfermedades.
What do oranges and hammers have in common? The classifier ‘round’ in Wa’ikhana and other East Tukano languages
Authors: Balykova Kristina 
Published: October 2019

Eastern Tukanoan languages are known for their developed nominal classification systems. Wa’ikhana (Piratapuyo) is in this sense a typical member of the family, since it has an open system with a big number of classes and with class markers which exercise derivational and agreement functions. Among all the Wa’ikhana inanimate classes, the class ‘round’ stands out for its semantic and morphosyntactic features. It is one of the most (if not the most) extensive class, which includes round objects as well as objects of a less prototypical shape. Its markers in non-plural number have the biggest number of allomorphs, whereas allomorphy of classifiers is not typical for this language. Besides, the class ‘round’ has a distinct plural marker, another feature absent for most classifiers. Comparison between Wa’ikhana and other related languages demonstrates that these peculiarities are shared by many of Eastern Tukanoan languages. Thus, the present paper aims to describe the class ‘round’ in Wa’ikhana and other languages of the family and to show common features as well as features that distinguish Wa’ikhana.
Evaluating the Impact of Wait Time on Orthopaedic Outpatient Satisfaction Using the Press Ganey Survey
Authors: Rane Ajinkya A. , Tyser Andrew R. , Kazmers Nikolas H. 
Published: October 2019

Background:
The Press Ganey Outpatient Medical Practice Survey is a commonly utilized questionnaire that attempts to measure satisfaction with outpatient health care. A wide variety of factors have been associated with lower satisfaction scores among orthopaedic patients, including age, sex, presence of psychological disorders, and driving distance to the point of care. The impact of clinic workflows is less clear. In this study, we hypothesized that an increased clinic wait time was an independent predictor of lower patient satisfaction as measured by the Press Ganey survey.

Methods:
We retrospectively reviewed 4,216 new outpatient orthopaedic surgery visits between January 1, 2014, and December 31, 2016, at a single academic institution. For patients with multiple visits, only the first new patient visit was analyzed. Satisfaction was defined as achieving a score above the 33rd percentile of the cohort. Univariate analysis followed by multivariable binary logistic regression was used to detect factors associated with patient satisfaction.

Results:
Of the 4,216 unique patients, the mean age (and standard deviation) was 52.8 ± 15.8 years, and 58.9% of the patients were female. The mean total wait time was 17.8 ± 19.4 minutes. Univariate analysis revealed greater odds of achieving satisfaction on the Press Ganey survey for a wait time of <15 minutes compared with a wait time of ≥15 minutes; the odds ratio (OR) was 3.78 (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.30 to 4.33; p < 0.01). The multivariable model revealed an association between satisfaction and wait time while controlling for other potential contributing factors: the odds of achieving satisfaction after waiting for 15 to 29 minutes were 0.36 (95% CI, 0.31 to 0.43; p < 0.01) compared with waiting for <15 minutes, with significantly decreasing odds (p < 0.01 for all) observed with further increments of increased wait time.

Conclusions:
A wait time exceeding 15 minutes in an outpatient orthopaedic clinic was an independent predictor of scoring at or below the 33rd percentile on the Press Ganey survey. Further increases in wait time significantly increased the odds of dissatisfaction. Measures to reduce clinic wait time may improve the patient experience and satisfaction with the orthopaedic encounter.

Abstract
Background—The risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) is known to be dynamic. However, the accuracy of a dynamic SCD prediction is unknown. We aimed to measure the dynamic predictive accuracy of ECG biomarkers of SCD and competing non-sudden cardiac death (non-SCD).
Methods—Atherosclerosis Risk In Community study participants with analyzable ECGs in sinus rhythm were included (n=15,716; 55% female, 73% white, age 54.2±5.8 y). ECGs of 5 follow-up visits were analyzed. Global electrical heterogeneity and traditional ECG metrics (heart rate, QRS, QTc) were measured. Adjudicated SCD was the primary outcome; non-SCD was competing outcome. Time-dependent area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC(t) AUC) analysis was performed to assess the prediction accuracy of a continuous biomarker in a period of 3,6,9 months, and 1,2,3,5,10, and 15 years using survival analysis framework. Reclassification improvement as compared to clinical risk factors (age, sex, race, diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke) was measured.
Results—Over a median 24.4 y follow-up, there were 577 SCDs (incidence 1.76 (95%CI 1.63-1.91)/1,000 person-years), and 829 non-SCDs [2.55 (95%CI 2.37-2.71)]. No ECG biomarkers predicted SCD within 3 months after ECG recording. Within 6 months, spatial ventricular gradient (SVG) elevation predicted SCD (AUC 0.706; 95%CI 0.526-0.886), but not a non-SCD (AUC 0.527; 95%CI 0.303-0.75). SVG elevation more accurately predicted SCD if ECG was recorded 6 months before SCD (AUC 0.706; 95%CI 0.526-0.886) than 2 years before SCD (AUC 0.608; 95%CI 0.515-0.701). Within the first 3 months after ECG recording, only SVG azimuth improved reclassification of the risk beyond clinical risk factors: 18% SCD events were reclassified from low or intermediate risk to a high-risk category. Long-term, QRS-T angle was the strongest predictor of SCD (AUC 0.710; 95%CI 0.668-0.753 for ECG recorded within 10 years before SCD).
Conclusion—Short-term and long-term predictive accuracy of ECG biomarkers of SCD differed, reflecting differences in transient vs. persistent SCD substrates. The dynamic predictive accuracy of ECG biomarkers should be considered for competing SCD risk scores. The distinction between markers predicting short-term and long-term events may represent the difference between markers heralding SCD (triggers or transient substrates) versus markers identifying persistent substrate.
