Abstract
Background: Pole dance is a type of functional training whose effects on body composition have been only poorly explored. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)is a field method to estimate fat-free mass (FFM), fat mass (FM), etc. In addition, of particular interest for athletes, raw BIA variables such as impedance ratio =IR (between impedance-Z at high frequencies and Z at low frequencies) and phase angle=PhA may be considered as promising markers of muscle quality since they arerelated to body cell mass (BCM) and the ratio between extracellular water and intracellular water.The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of pole dancing training on body composition and especially on IR and PhA of the whole body, upper limbs and lower limbs. Methods: Forty female pole dancers (age 27.4±5.1 years, body weight 57.0±6.9 kg, body mass index-BMI 22.2±2.3 kg/m²) and fifty-nine control young women (26.8±4.7 years, 58.6±6.4 kg, BMI 22.3±1.8 kg/m²) participated in the study.BIA was performed on the whole body, upper limbs and lower limbs at 5-50-100-250 kHz. FFM, FFM index, FMand percentage of FM were then predicted. Raw BIA variables were also considered: IR and PhA, and also bioelectrical impedance indexes (stature²/Z, related to body water compartments). Arm muscle area (AMA) and arm fat area (AFA) were calculated from triceps skinfold and arm circumference. Results: Compared to controls pole dancers exhibited higher FFM index and BI indexes at low and high frequencies as well as lower percentage of FM. Whole-body BI indexes correlated with AMA but not with AFA. PhA was greater and IRs were smaller in pole dancers than controls for the whole body and more markedly for upper limbs, whereas there were no differences for lower limbs. When considering training level, professional and amateur pole dancers did not differ with respect to body weight and BMI. After adjusting for weight, FFM and FFMI were greater in the more trained than in the less trained group, while FM and %FM were smaller. Whole-body PhA and IRs as well as BI indexes tended to be higher in the professionalsthan amateurs, with much more significant differences in upper limb PhA and IRs. Conclusions: Pole dance training has a significant effect, possibly depending also on training level, not only on FFM and FM, but also on those raw BIA variables that may be considered as markers of muscle quality.

Abstract
Background
Cognitive functions represent useful endophenotypes to identify the association between genetic variants and schizophrenia. In this sense, the NR4A2 gene has been implicated in schizophrenia and cognition in different animal models and clinical trials. We hypothesized that the NR4A2 gene is associated with working memory performance in schizophrenia. This study aimed to analyze two variants and the expression levels of the NR4A2 gene with susceptibility to schizophrenia, as well as to evaluate whether possession of NR4A2 variants influence the possible correlation between gene expression and working memory performance in schizophrenia.
Methods
The current study included 187 schizophrenia patients and 227 controls genotyped for two of the most studied NR4A2 genetic variants in neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases. Genotyping was performed using High Resolution Melt and sequencing techniques. In addition, mRNA expression of NR4A2 was performed in peripheral mononuclear cells of 112 patients and 118 controls. A group of these participants, 54 patients and 87 controls, performed the working memory index of the WAIS III test.
Results
Both genotypic frequencies of the two variants and expression levels of the NR4A2 gene showed no significant difference when in patients versus controls. However, patients homozygous for the rs34884856 promoter variant showed a positive correlation between expression levels and auditory working memory. In these patients, a decrease of NR4A2 mRNA expression was related to working memory impairment.
Conclusions
Our finding suggested that changes in expression levels of the NR4A2 gene could be associated with working memory in schizophrenia depending on patients´ genotype in a sample from a Mexican population.

Abstract
Background: To develop and validate a novel prognostic model to estimate overall survival (OS) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients based on clinical features and blood biomarkers. And assess its incremental value to TNM staging system, clinical treatment, and Epstein-Barr virus DNA (EBV DNA) for individual OS estimation.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 519 consecutive NPC. A prognostic model was generated by using the Lasso regression model in training cohort (n = 346). Then comparison of predictive accuracy between the novel prognostic model, TNM staging, clinical treatment, and EBV DNA using concordance index (C-index), time-dependent ROC (tdROC), and decision curve analysis (DCA). Subsequently, a nomogram for OS incorporating the prognostic model, TNM staging and clinical treatment was built. Finally, we stratified patients into high- risk and low-risk groups according to the model risk score, and the survival time of these two groups was analyzed using Kaplan–Meier survival plots. All the results were validated in the independent validation cohort (n = 173).Results: Using the Lasso regression, a prognostic model was established consisting of 13 variables with respect to patient prognosis. The C-index, tdROC and DCA all showed the prognostic model had good predictive accuracy and discriminatory power than TNM staging, clinical treatment and EBV DNA in training cohort. Nomogram consisting of the prognostic model, TNM staging, clinical treatment and EBV DNA shown some superior net benefit. According to the model risk score, we split the patients into two subgroups: low- risk (risk score ≤ -1.423) and high-risk (risk score > -1.423). There had significant differences in OS between the two subgroups of patients. In the validation cohort, similar results were obtained.Conclusions: The proposed novel prognostic model based on clinical features and serological markers represents a promising signature for estimating OS in NPC patients.

Abstract

Background: Preoperative anxiety causes a profound psychological and physiological reactions, that may lead to a worse postoperative recovery, higher intensity of acute and persistent postsurgical pain and impaired quality of life in the postoperative period. Previous randomized controlled trials (RCTs) suggest that auricular acupuncture (AA) is safe and effective in treatment of preoperative anxiety; a systematic evidence on this topic is missing. Therefore, this protocol was developed following the PRISMA guidelines to adequately evaluate the existing literature regarding the value of AA for the reduction of anxiety in patients in a preoperative setting, compared to other forms of acupuncture or pharmacological or no control interventions and measured with questionnaires regarding anxiety and fear. Methods and analysis: The following databases will be searched: MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), ISI Web of Science, Scopus Database and Google search. RCTs will be included if an abstract is available in English. Data collection and analysis will be conducted by 2 reviewers independently. Quality and risk assessment of included studies will be done using the Cochrane 5.1.0 handbook criteria and meta-analysis of effectiveness and symptom scores will be conducted using the statistical software RevMan V.5.3.Ethics and dissemination: This systematic review will evaluate the efficacy and safety of AA for preoperative anxiety. Since all data used in this systematic review and meta-analysis have been published, this review does not require ethical approval. The results may be published in a peer-reviewed journal or be presented in relevant conferences.Registration number: PROSPERO ID CRD42020184795

Abstract
Background: Large-scale afforestation can significantly change ground cover and soil physicochemical properties, especially the soil fertility maintenance and water conservation function of artificial forest is very important in semi-arid mountain ecosystems. To better understand the effects of different tree growth on soil nutrient and soil physicochemical properties following afforestation to determine the best plantation tree species for improving soil fertility and water conservation functions. Methods: This study investigated the soil nutrient contents for three different tree species (Larix principis-rupprechtii, Picea crassifolia, Pinus tabuliformis), soils and plant-soil feedbacks, as well as the interaction between soil physicochemical properties. Results: The results revealed that the leaf and litter layer strongly influences soil nutrient availability through biogeochemical processes: P. tabuliformis has higher organic carbon, C:N and C:P in the leaves and litter layer than L. principis-rupprechtii or P. crassifolia, suggesting that higher C:N and C:P hinder litter decomposition. As a result, the L. principis-rupprechtii and P. crassifolia plantation forests significantly improve soil nutrients and clay component than P. tabuliformis plantation forest. Furthermore, the the L. principis-rupprechtii and P. crassifolia plantation forests significantly improved the soil capacity, soil total porosity and capillary porosity, decreased soil bulk density, and enhanced water storage capacity than P. tabuliformis plantation forest. In conclusion, the results of this study show that the strong link between plants and soil is tightly coupled to C:N and C:P, and there had strong correlation between soil particle size distribution and soil physicochemical properties. Conclusions: Therefore, our results recommend planting the L. principis-rupprechtii and P. crassifolia as the preferred tree species to enhance the soil fertility and water conservation functions, especially in semi-arid regions mountain forest ecosystems.
Enterprise Architecture for Accounting and Finance Transformation: Using Strategy Maps to Develop High-Performance Finance
Authors: O'Leary Daniel E. 
Published: August 2020

ABSTRACT
Enterprise architecture has received limited attention in the accounting information systems literature. However, enterprise architecture can provide an important approach for transforming an organization and bringing strategy into organizations. Recently, The Hartford implemented an approach that used Kaplan and Norton's (2004) well known “strategy maps” as part of the enterprise architecture process to transform the finance department and embed strategy into accounting and finance. The process generated a creative future state that included a linear flow of information that mirrored the information life cycle, while providing a “single source of truth” archive for financial information. This paper reviews and analyzes The Hartford's unique use of strategy maps to redesign the finance function in order to attain “high performance finance.” In so doing, the paper investigates a unique approach, an “innovative practice,” that allows grounding accounting and financial information systems in an organization's strategy formulation process.

Published: August 2020

This study is aimed for finding alternative ways to treat diabetes. Many studies have beendone before, but focused on identification of α-glucosidase inhibition mechanism. This study wasconducted by extracting Caesalpinia bonduc seed using two methods maceration by ethanol 96%and the others boil by water. The ethanol extract was then fractioned into three fractions, n-hexane,ethyl acetate, and ethanol. To find the bioactive compounds, the ethanol extract was then tested byseveral phytochemistry tests. The phytochemistry test showed positive results for alkaloid, flavonoid,saponin and triterpenoid. The inhibition mechanism was tested using pNPG. The inhibition testshown that the mechanism was a competitive inhibition, by the Dixon plot. The calculated inhibitionconcentrations for 50% substrate (IC50) for ethyl acetate fraction are 1655.8079 μg/ml for 5 mMsubstrate and 803.9521 μg/ml for 10 mM substrate. From the results of this study, we concluded thatthe extract of Caesalpinia bonduc has inhibition activity toward α-glucosidase enzyme.
