Background: Undergraduate medical students seek as much information as possible as to how residency programs select candidates. The Canadian Residency Matching Service (CaRMS) website is one of their primary sources of information. Students may be more competitive in the match if they know whether scholarly activity is used in the selection process by their preferred programs, as described on the CaRMS website..
Methods: For all 17 Canadian faculties of medicine, 2019 R1 entry internal medicine, family medicine and pediatrics program descriptions were reviewed on the CaRMS website looking for keywords related to scholarly activity.
Results: Forty-one percent of family medicine, 65% of internal medicine and 71% of pediatric programs explicitly stated having interest in applicants with scholarly experience. In Western Canada, 80% of internal medicine and 60% of pediatrics programs included scholarly activity in their CaRMS description of criteria considered in ranking applications. Similarly, in Ontario, 66% of internal medicine and 83% of pediatrics programs mentioned scholarly activity as a valuable quality. In Quebec 100% of family medicine and 50% of pediatrics programs include scholarly activity in their descriptions. Pediatrics and internal medicine programs (100%) in Atlantic Canada mentioned scholarly activities but neither of the two Atlantic Canada internal medicine programs mentioned scholarly activities.
Conclusion: Undergraduate medical students can use this project to prioritize extracurricular activities and scholarly work to be competitive for application to family medicine, internal medicine and pediatrics residency programs.

Background: The Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine expanded its medical education across three campus sites (Hamilton, Niagara Regional and Waterloo Regional) in 2007. Ensuring the efficacy and equivalency of the quality of training are important accreditation considerations in distributed medical education. In addition, given the social accountability mission implicit to distributed medical education, the proportion of learners at each campus that match to family medicine residency programs upon graduation is of particular interest.
Methods: By way of between campus comparisons of Canadian Residency Matching Service (CaRMS) match rates, this study investigates the family medicine match proportion of medical students from McMaster’s three medical education campuses. These analyses are further supported by between campus comparisons of Personal Progress Index (PPI), Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE), Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination-Part 1 (MCCQE1) performances that offer insight into the equivalency and efficacy of the educational outcomes at each campus.
Results: The Niagara Regional Campus (NRC) demonstrated a significantly greater proportion of students matched to family medicine. With respect to education equivalency, the proportion of students’ PPI scores that were more than two SD below the mean was comparable across campuses. OSCE analysis yielded less than 2% differences across campuses with no differences in the last year of training. The MCCQE1 pass rates were not statistically significant between campuses and there were no differences in CaRMS match rates. With respect to education efficacy, there were no differences among the three campuses’ pass rates on the MCCQE1 and CaRMS match rates with the national rates.
Conclusions: Students in all campuses received equivalent educational experiences and were efficacious when compared to national metrics, while residency matches to family medicine were greater in the NRC. The reasons for this difference may be a factor of resident and leadership role-models as well as the local hospital and community environment.

Норма расхода питательного раствора на протяжении выращивания культуры зависит от размеров растений, уровня солнечной радиации и обогрева теплицы. Для растений, достигших полного развития, потребность в питательном растворе колеблется в пределах 2-6 л/м в день. В жаркие дни норма полива может достигать 7-10 л/м. Это эквивалентно 30-40 подачам воды (с питательным раствором) объемом в 100 см на растение в день.
The rate of nutrient solution consumption during crop cultivation depends on the size of plants, the level of solar radiation and the heating of the greenhouse. For plants that have reached full development, the need for a nutrient solution ranges from 2-6 l/m per day. On hot days, the irrigation rate can reach 7-10 l/m. This is equivalent to 30-40 feeds of water (with nutrient solution) with a volume of 100 cm per plant per day.

Acute Vertigo in a Patient with Long-Term Organic Solvent Exposure: Importance of a Comprehensive Audio-Vestibular Test Battery
Authors: Maheu Maxime , Champoux François , Fuente Adrian 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Background Ototoxicity induced by organic solvents has been identified in several groups of workers. Little is known, however, about the effects of organic solvents on the vestibular system.
Purpose The aim of the study was to comprehensively assess the vestibular system and auditory functions in a worker exposed to organic solvents.
Research Design Both behavioral and physiological auditory and vestibular evaluations were performed.
Results No auditory-related findings associated with solvent exposure were found. The vestibulo-ocular reflex gain was abnormal for all semicircular canals with significant catch-up saccades, as measured by the video head impulse test. The cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials was absent in the right ear and small but replicable in the left ear. Ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential were bilaterally absent.
Conclusions The results suggest a case of vestibulotoxicity induced by a long history of organic solvent exposure. We suggest that solvent-exposed individuals should be evaluated with a comprehensive battery of auditory and vestibular tests.

Authors: Bryan Melinda F. , Gordon-Hickey Susan , Hay Ashton L. , Davis Shelby T. 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Background The acceptable noise level (ANL) is a measure of willingness to listen to speech in the presence of background noise and is thought to be related to success with amplification. To date, ANLs have only been assessed over short periods of time, including within a session and over a 3-week and 3-month time period. ANL stability over longer periods of time has not been assessed.
Purpose The purpose was to examine the stability of ANL over a 1-year time period.
Research Design A repeated-measures, longitudinal study was completed.
Study Sample Thirty young adults with normal hearing served as participants. The participants were tested at two different sites.
Data Collection and Analysis Two trials of most comfortable listening levels (MCLs), background noise levels (BNLs), and ANLs were assessed for each participant during three experimental sessions: at 0 months, 6 months, and 1 year.
Results Two-way repeated-measures analysis of variances revealed no significant change in MCLs, BNLs, or ANLs within a session or over a 1-year time period. These results indicate that ANLs remain stable for 1 year in listeners with normal hearing.
Conclusions The finding that the ANL is stable over a longer period of time supports the theory that the ANL is an inherent trait of the listener and mediated at in the central auditory nervous system.
Evaluation of Hearing Aid Manufacturers' Software-Derived Fittings to DSL v5.0 Pediatric Targets
Authors: Folkeard Paula , Bagatto Marlene , Scollie Susan 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Background Hearing aid prescriptive methods are a commonly recommended component of evidence-based preferred practice guidelines and are often implemented in the hearing aid programming software. Previous studies evaluating hearing aid manufacturers' software-derived fittings to prescriptions have shown significant deviations from targets. However, few such studies examined the accuracy of software-derived fittings for the Desired Sensation Level (DSL) v5.0 prescription.
Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of software-derived fittings to the DSL v5.0 prescription, across a range of hearing aid brands, audiograms, and test levels.
Research Design This study is a prospective chart review with simulated cases.
Data Collection and Analysis A set of software-derived fittings were created for a six-month-old test case, across audiograms ranging from mild to profound. The aided output from each fitting was verified in the test box at 55-, 65-, 75-, and 90-dB SPL, and compared with DSL v5.0 child targets. The deviations from target across frequencies 250-6000 Hz were calculated, together with the root-mean-square error (RMSE) from target. The aided Speech Intelligibility Index (SII) values generated for the speech passages at 55- and 65-dB SPL were compared with published norms.
Study Sample Thirteen behind-the-ear style hearing aids from eight manufacturers were tested.
Results The amount of deviation per frequency was dependent on the test level and degree of hearing loss. Most software-derived fittings for mild-to-moderately severe hearing losses fell within ± 5 dB of the target for most frequencies. RMSE results revealed more than 84% of those hearing aid fittings for the mild-to-moderate hearing losses were within 5 dB at all test levels. Fittings for severe to profound hearing losses had the greatest deviation from target and RMSE. Aided SII values for the mild-to-moderate audiograms fell within the normative range for DSL pediatric fittings, although they fell within the lower portion of the distribution. For more severe losses, SII values for some hearing aids fell below the normative range.
Conclusions In this study, use of the software-derived manufacturers' fittings based on the DSL v5.0 pediatric targets set most hearing aids within a clinically acceptable range around the prescribed target, particularly for mild-to-moderate hearing losses. However, it is likely that clinician adjustment based on verification of hearing aid output would be required to optimize the fit to target, maximize aided SII, and ensure appropriate audibility across all degrees of hearing loss.

Féminité, maternité et compétences éducatives des éducatrices de jeunes enfants (EJE)
Authors: Hilbold Mej 
Published: July 2020

Le secteur de l’accueil de la petite enfance est marqué par une volonté de professionnalisation des professionnelles, ainsi que par une féminisation de la profession encore massive. Tiraillées entre des enjeux de reconnaissance sociale redoublés par cette féminisation et une référence à la psychologie de l’enfant mettant au cœur de la relation éducative le modèle de la maternité et la nécessité de protéger le lien entre la mère et son enfant, les éducatrices de jeunes enfants – l’une des professions des travailleuses de la petite enfance – se trouvent confrontées dans leurs pratiques quotidiennes auprès des enfants à des contradictions et un déni de leur affectivité les plaçant dans l’impasse. Leur formation les inscrivant dans une logique d’identification à leur groupe professionnel censée produire une « identité professionnelle », l’article cherche à mettre en évidence les liens entre processus identitaires au travail, compétences des éducatrices et la problématique du genre féminin dans ce contexte, à l’aide de la méthode foucaldienne d’analyse des discours, des théories post-foucaldiennes et queer de l’identité.

Location plays a backbone role in networks, since it will great influence basic wireless sensor networks (WSNs) architecture. Distance-Vector Hop (DV-Hop) is a representative range-free localization algorithm, which is widely utilized to locate node position in location-based application. However, with poor localization accuracy, it cannot satisfy precise location-based application requirement. Consequently, we proposed a hybrid range-free algorithm depends on dynamic communication range to address low localization accuracy problem, named as DCDV-Hop. Firstly, we applied statistical methods to analyze the relationship between location error and hop count under different communication ranges. Thereafter, we employed centroid algorithm to calculate target node coordinate based on hop threshold. Finally, a weighted least square is applied to locate remaining target nodes. We conducted considerable experiments, the results demonstrated that our proposed algorithm DCDV-Hop can effectively reduce accumulate localization error and improve localization accuracy of target nodes, with stable performance. Moreover, maximum localization accuracy reached up to 91.35% and localization error reduced more than 50%, compared with DV-Hop algorithm.

Published: July 2020

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of machine learning (ML) algorithms employed in a commercial Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Indoor Positioning (IP) solution relying on practical measurements in a commercial office space setting. The BLE IP system utilizing tags presents an ideal economic approach for large facilities with a limited number of tracking elements (gateways). In this investigation, data collection campaigns were conducted in an indoor facility fitted with BLE gateways to aggregate Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) fingerprints. Performance of a collection of well-known ML algorithms in terms of accuracy of positioning of the desired objects, in addition to training complexity and online tracking speed were evaluated. ML algorithms of increased accuracy and efficiency were identified and tabulated in both of the offline and online phases. It is also envisaged that as part of this practical study, the results will serve to identify proper economical topologies and configuration in real-life installations for tag-based BLE IP systems.

Authors: Rúa-Bustamante Clara V. , Ambrosio Maximiliano , Rodríguez-Carías Abner A. 
Published: July 2020

Se evaluó la ganancia diaria de peso (GDP) de ovinos de pelo tipo Sudán en crecimiento utilizando 1,090 registros tomados durante dos años en tres granjas localizadas en el trópico seco en la región del Caribe de Colombia. En cada una de las granjas se registró el tipo de parto de la oveja y el sexo de los corderos. Para determinar la GDP, los corderos se pesaron semanalmente desde el nacimiento hasta los 240 días de edad. Los datos se analizaron según un diseño estadístico completamente aleatorizado con arreglo factorial 3 (granjas) x 2 (sexo del cordero) x 3 (tipo de parto, sencillo, doble o triple). Se utilizó la prueba de Tukey para la separación de medias. La GDP fue similar entre las tres granjas evaluadas con un promedio general de 112 g. Se observó en promedio una mayor (P<0.05) GDP en hembras que en machos (115 versus 103 g) y tal como esperado, la GDP individual de corderos producto de partos sencillos (117 g) fue mayor (P<0.05) que la de corderos nacidos de partos dobles (106 g) o triples (23 g). La mayor GDP de corderas se observó en dos de las tres granjas. La GDP fue similar en machos o hembras nacidos de partos sencillos, sin embargo, en corderas nacidas de partos dobles la GDP fue mayor (P<0.05) que en corderos, y lo contrario se observó en partos triples donde la GDP fue 32 g mayor (P<0.05) en machos que en hembras. En resumen, la GDP de ovinos de pelo tipo Sudán en la región del Caribe de Colombia es buena dado su sistema de crianza extensivo. La GDP fue similar entre fincas pero difirió entre el sexo de la cría y el tipo de parto.
