The Interplay of Religious Symbols and Cultural Values Theory in Advertising
Authors: Žitkienė Rima , Kriaučiūnaitė-Lazauskienė Gintarė 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to analyse symbolic advertising and its effect on cultural values in the consumer society. A conceptual framework is grounded in the scientific literature analysis on Christian religious symbols in advertising along with a critical view of its impact on consumers’ cultural values. There is a lack of empirical studies regarding consumers’ approaches towards religious symbols in advertising and their impact on consumption in different cultural values. In this article we are trying to seek an alternative approach to advertising, social, and cultural trends in society.
Current management of household hazardous waste (HHW) in the Asian region
Authors: Manggali Agni Amurbatami , Susanna Dewi 
Published: November 2019

Abstract

Background
This review intends to explore the household hazardous waste (HHW) generation rates, HHW management, and people’s awareness regarding HHW in Asian countries based on the economic levels using the available published articles.

Methods
This is a systematic review of the scientific literature based on several databases, namely Scopus, ProQuest, PubMed, Sage Journals, and Elsevier’s Science Direct from 2008 to 2018.

Results
HHW generation rates in various Asian cities do not seem to be influenced by the countries’ financial status, except for e-waste. The variety in HHW generation rates among Asian countries might be due to various reasons, which include differences in (1) sampling frame/locations; (2) sampling size; (3) study duration; (4) seasons; (5) study year; and (6) HHW definition/composition. Governmental intervention programs on HHW management have been implemented in some of the Asian countries, mostly in high and upper-middle income groups although misconducts are still found. There is a tendency for economically developed countries to ship their e-waste to less-developed countries, where the system relies heavily on the informal sectors where unsafe treatments are often discovered. Low level of awareness regarding HHW risks is mostly identified in the lower-middle income group. However, even though high and upper-middle income groups have a better awareness of HHW, many people do not entirely follow the recommended practices.

Conclusion
The lack of enforced regulation and proper treatment infrastructure may lead to HHW being mixed with general household waste, which is found in many Asian countries, despite their income levels. In addition, a good awareness of HHW does not guarantee proper handling of it.
Cerca mío/aorcerca de mí ? A variationist analysis of Spanish locative + possessive on Twitter
Authors: Hoff Mark 
Published: November 2019

AbstractSpanish locative adverbs may be followed by either a prepositional phrase (PP) (e.g.cerca de mí‘close to/(of) me’) or, nonstandardly, a tonic possessive (TP) (e.g.cerca mío‘lit. close mine’). Some also take feminine forms (e.g.cerca mía, detrás mía). Using R, I analyze 16,809 tweets representing 14 locatives from Buenos Aires, Madrid, and Mexico City and demonstrate that, although dialects and individual locatives vary widely in their rates of TP use, the person, number, and animacy of the possessor significantly predict PP/TP selection across varieties. Also, feminine possessives are used almost exclusively in Spain, and the seemingly feminine morphology of locatives ending in–a(e.g.encima) and subsequent extension to other locatives via analogy is the most plausible explanation for their use. Further evidence of analogy is TP use in non-locative contexts (e.g. Arg.pensás mío‘you think of me,’ Sp.enamorado tuyo/a‘in love with you’). These findings illuminate the interactions between avoidance of ambiguity, form-based analogy, and speakers’ conceptualization of possession. My findings regarding animacy, which find parallels in research on English dative and genitive constructions, highlight the utility of both cross-linguistic and cross-constructional comparisons in analyzing morphosyntactic variation.
Der Absorptionskoeffizient an der langwelligen Grenze des kontinuierlichen Röntgenspektrums
Authors: Elwert Gerhard 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
In der Astrophysik wird für den Absorptionskoeffizienten am langwelligen Rand des kontinuierlichen Röntgenspektrums teils die korrespondenzmäßig-klassische, teils eine wellenmechanische Formel verwendet. Im folgenden wird im Anschluß an Arbeiten von Sommerfeld ein Ausdruck abgeleitet, der diese beiden Formeln als Grenzfälle enthält und damit ihren Zusammenhang und ihren Gültigkeitsbereich klärt.
Die Rotation kosmischer Gasmassen
Authors: Weizsäcker Carl Friedrich 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
1. Die hydrodynamischen Gleichungen für die Bewegungen eines turbulenten Gases werden im Sinne der Prandtlschen Theorie nochmals abgeleitet . Für die Anwendung auf kosmische Gasmassen wird dabei auch der Turbulenz druck und die durch ihn bedingte Stabilität bzw. Labilität der Schichtung untersucht . Für die Ableitung der Turbulenz-geschwindigkeit aus der mittleren Geschwindigkeit wird ein invarianter Ausdruck angegeben.
2. Die Gleichungen werden in einem zwei dimensionalen rotationssymmetrischen Modell genähert gelöst. Die turbulente Reibung löst eine rotierende Masse in einen Kern und eine ins Unendliche entweichende Hülle auf. In gewissen Fällen bilden sich in der Hülle „ Saturnringe " . Der Kern bleibt in der hier gewählten Näherung , in welcher der Druck vernachlässigt ist, starr rotierend zurück . Berücksichtigung des Druckes würde einlangsames Erlöschen der Rotation ergeben . Eine spezielle Dichteverteilung wird quantitativ behandelt . Für allgemeinere Dichteverteilungen werden Näherungsformeln entwickelt und graphisch diskutiert.
3. Im drei dimensionalen Fallläßt sich die Rechnung nicht bis zu derselben Näherung treiben . Die Näherung einer flachen Scheibe wird diskutiert und der Sonderfall eines stationären Materie stroms bei großer Zentralmasse durchgerechnet . Qualitativ weichen die Ergebnisse vom zwei dimensionalen Fall nicht ab.
4. Das Rotationsgesetz des Andromeda - Nebels scheint durch die hier entwickelten Methoden verständlich zu werden. Die turbulente Reibung hat die Tendenz, die im Andromeda-Nebel bestehende komplizierte Dichteverteilung (dichter Kern, dann ein Dichte minimum und weit er außen ein breiter Materiering) gegen den Druck aufrecht - zuer halten . Die äußersten Teile des Nebels sollten mit einer Geschwindigkeit von wenigen km/sec, welche ihrer Rotation überlagert ist, in den Weltraum abströmen . Damit ergibt sich eine Lebensdauer eines der artigen Gebildes von mehreren 109 Jahren . Es wird darauf hingewiesen , daß das empirische Rotationsgesetz des Nebels die Frage nahelegt ob die Spiralstruktur von innen nach außen nicht ein malden Richtungssinn umkehrt.

Authors: Scherzer Otto 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
An einem Rechenbeispiel wird gezeigt, wie sich Elektronenlinsen durch eine für Elektronen durchlässige ebene Metallfolie chromatisch korrigieren lassen. Die benachbarten Elektroden influenzieren auf der Folie negative Ladungen, die die langsameren Strahl-elektronen verhältnismäßig stark nach außen drängen und dadurch den chromatischen Fehler korrigieren.
Phosphorylation of TRPV1 S801 Contributes to Modality-Specific Hyperalgesia in Mice

Published: November 2019

Transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1) is a nonselective cationic channel activated by painful stimuli such as capsaicin and noxious heat, and enriched in sensory neurons of the pain pathway. During inflammation, chemical mediators activate protein kinases (such as PKC) that phosphorylate TRPV1 and thereby enhance its function, with consequent increases in nociceptor sensitization. However, the causal relationships between TRPV1 phosphorylation and pathological pain remain unexplored. To directly investigate the roles of one specific TRPV1 phosphorylation eventin vivo, we genetically altered a major PKC phosphorylation site, mouse TRPV1 S801, to alanine. The TRPV1 expression pattern in sensory neurons of S801A knock-in (KI) mice was comparable to that in WT controls. However, sensitization of capsaicin-mediated currents after the activation of PKC was substantially impaired in sensory neurons from KI mice. Thermal hyperalgesia induced by PMA or burn injury in KI was identical to WT. Inflammatory thermal hyperalgesia was only marginally attenuated in KI mice. In contrast, PMA-evoked nocifensive responses and sensitization of capsaicin responses were significantly attenuated in the hindpaws of KI mice. Ongoing pain from inflamed masseter muscle was also reduced in KI mice, and was further inhibited by the TRPV1 antagonist AMG9810. These results suggest that PKC-mediated phosphorylation of TRPV1 S801 contributes to inflammation-mediated sensitization of TRPV1 to ligand, but not heat,in vivo. Further, this suggests that interference with TRPV1 S801 phosphorylation might represent one potential way to attenuate inflammatory pain, yet spare basal sensitivity and produce fewer side effects than more general TRPV1 inhibition.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTTransient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1) has been considered a potential target for pain intervention. Global inhibitors of TRPV1 function, however, produce side effects which could compromise their clinical utility. By precisely removing a unique PKC phosphorylation site (TRPV1 S801) in mice through CRISPR/Cas9 editing, we providein vivoevidence for a highly specific inhibition that leaves basal TRPV1 function intact, yet alleviates some forms of hyperalgesia. These findings support inhibition of TRPV1 S801 phosphorylation as a potential intervention for pain management.
Which Recurrent Selection Scheme To Improve Mixtures of Crop Species? Theoretical Expectations
Authors: Sampoux Jean-Paul , Giraud Héloïse , Litrico Isabelle 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
In a context of increasing environmental challenges, there is an emerging demand for plant cultivars that are adapted to cultivation in species mixture. It is thus pressing to look for the optimization of selection schemes to grow species mixtures, and especially recurrent selection schemes which are at the core of the improvement of many plant species. We considered the case of two populations from different species to be improved by recurrent selection for their performances in mixture. We set up an analytical model of performances in mixture. We expressed the expected responses of the performances in mixture to one cycle of selection in the case of a Reciprocal Mixture Ability selection scheme and of two parallel selection schemes aiming to improve General Mixture Abilities or performances in pure stands. We numerically compared these selection schemes when half-sib or topcross progeny families of selection candidates are tested in mixture. Selection in pure stands appeared efficient within a limited range of genetic correlations between pure stand performance and mixture model effects. The Reciprocal Mixture Ability selection scheme was expected to be less efficient than parallel selections for General Mixture Ability in some situations. The last option enables to control the ratio of expected responses of species contributions to the mixture performance without bias when using selection indices. When more than two species are be improved for their performances in mixture, the advantage of parallel selections for General Mixture Ability is even more marked, providing that compensation trends between species are not too prevalent.
Impact of SIMPLE Feeding Quality Improvement Strategies on Aerodigestive Milestones and Feeding Outcomes in BPD Infants
Authors: Bapat Roopali , Gulati Ish K. , Jadcherla Sudarshan 
Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Delays with enteral and oral feeding milestones among premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) can be due to provider variation or infant-dependent factors. Our objectives with this study were to compare aerodigestive milestones and length of stay in BPD infants after implementing a quality improvement program to improve feeding outcomes.METHODS:Using the Institute for Healthcare Improvement model for quality improvement, we implemented the simplified, individualized, milestone-targeted, pragmatic, longitudinal, and educational (SIMPLE) feeding strategy to enhance feeding and aerodigestive milestones among BPD infants. The key interventions addressed were as follows: (1) enteral feed initiation and advancement protocol; (2) oral feeding progression guidelines, optimization of respiratory support, feeding readiness scores, nonnutritive breastfeeding, and cue-based feeding; (3) active multidisciplinary collaboration; and (4) family-centered care. Comparisons were made between baseline (January 2009 to March 2010) and SIMPLE feeding strategy (May 2010 to December 2013) groups. Both groups included infants between 23 0/7 and 32 6/7 weeks’ birth gestation, and ≤34 weeks’ postmenstrual age at admission and discharge.RESULTS:The baseline group and SIMPLE feeding group included 92 patients and 187 patients, respectively. Full enteral feeding, first oral feeding, full oral feeding, and length of stay milestones were (all P &lt; .05) achieved sooner in the SIMPLE feeding group. Although the overall prevalence of BPD in the 2 groups is similar, the incidence of moderate BPD has decreased (P &lt; .05) and severe BPD has increased (P &lt; .05) in the SIMPLE feeding group.CONCLUSIONS:SIMPLE feeding strategy advances postnatal maturation and acquisition of feeding milestones irrespective of the severity of BPD and impacts the length of stay, thereby lowering resource use.

Authors: Riese Alison , Houck Christopher , Abdullahi Najma , Davies Abigail C. , Baird Janette , Alverson Brian 
Published: November 2019

OBJECTIVES:
To evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of an electronic sexual health module for inpatient adolescent girls and assess the preliminary effect on uptake of sexual health services.

METHODS:
We recruited girls 14 to 18 years old admitted to the hospitalist service of 1 academic children’s hospital from January 2016 to October 2016. Participants completed an electronic sexual health module that included a sexual health assessment, tailored feedback (randomized for half of the participants only), and a questionnaire to request sexual health services. Participation and completion rates, along with effects of tailored feedback, risk perception, age group, and sexual activity on uptake of services, were examined.

RESULTS:
Seventy-seven percent of eligible participants who were approached enrolled in the study (n = 66 of 86). The completion rate was 100%. Fifty-three percent (n = 35) requested some form of sexual health service; of these, 83% (n = 29) requested to watch a contraception video. There was no statistically significant difference in the frequency of requests for those who received tailored feedback and for those who did not (57% vs 48%; P = .48). Younger teens and those without sexual experience made requests similar to older and sexually experienced girls except regarding sexually transmitted infection testing, which was significantly higher in the latter populations.

CONCLUSIONS:
This pilot study demonstrated reasonable feasibility and acceptability of a standardized sexual health module for adolescent girls admitted to the general pediatric wards. Videos focused on adolescent health were of particular interest to this population. Further study should examine the impact of such a module on long-term sexual health behaviors.
Adolescents’ Experiences During “Boarding” Hospitalization While Awaiting Inpatient Psychiatric Treatment Following Suicidal Ideation or Suicide Attempt
Authors: Worsley Diana , Barrios Emily , Shuter Marie , Pettit Amy R. , Doupnik Stephanie K. 
Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND:
Two million adolescents experience suicidal ideation (SI) or suicide attempt (SA) annually, and they frequently present to emergency departments. Delays in transfer to inpatient psychiatric units increasingly lead to “boarding” in emergency departments and inpatient medical units. We sought to understand adolescents’ perspectives during boarding hospitalizations to gain insight into helpful practices and targets for improvement.

METHODS:
Using convenience sampling, we conducted semistructured interviews with 27 adolescents hospitalized for SI or SA while they were awaiting transfer to an inpatient psychiatric facility. Interviews were recorded and transcribed, and the thematic analysis was organized using NVivo 11.

RESULTS:
Eight themes emerged: (1) supportive clinical interactions, (2) information needs, (3) repetitive inquiries, (4) safety, (5) previous hospital experiences, (6) activities and boredom, (7) physical comfort, and (8) emotions. Adolescents expressed appreciation for compassionate clinicians and for receiving information about what to expect, experienced the hospital as a safe environment, emphasized the value of staying occupied and of physical comfort, and were relieved to be receiving help to reduce their suicidal thoughts or behaviors. Reports of embarrassment and discomfort about repeated inquiries from the clinical team, comparisons with previous hospital experiences, and unanswered questions about what would occur during the planned inpatient psychiatric hospitalization were common.

CONCLUSIONS:
The perspectives of adolescents seeking care for SI or SA are an important source of information for health care systems seeking to improve hospital care. Clinicians can relieve distress of adolescents awaiting psychiatric hospitalization by focusing on compassionate connection, minimizing repeated inquiries, and providing complete and concrete information about treatment plans.
Preparing Families of Technology-Dependent Children for Emergencies
Authors: Gillen Jennifer K. , Morris Marilyn C. 
Published: November 2019

OBJECTIVES:
To characterize the baseline level of emergency preparedness among families of technology-dependent children admitted to our PICU and to determine if an ICU-based planning intervention can sustainably improve families’ disaster preparedness.

METHODS:
A single-arm, survey-based study used to assess participants’ preparedness to handle a 72-hour home power outage on the basis of a novel 8-point checklist. Parents of patients in the study completed the survey questions when their child was admitted to the PICU, discharged, or transferred from the PICU, after at least 2 weeks at home, and after at least 6 months at home. This study included a cohort of 50 children younger than18 years old who required daily use of at least 1 piece of qualifying electronic medical equipment at home and their custodial parents. The checklist surveyed was designed with the goals of maximizing care capacity at home during a power outage and planning for evacuation. Counseling and other resources were provided on the basis of item completion at admission assessment.

RESULTS:
Patients’ families completed a median of 3 items (range: 0–8; N = 50) at admission, 4 items (range: 1–8; n = 45) at discharge, and 7 items (range: 3–8; n = 37) at the 2-week follow-up and retained 7 items (range: 5–8; n = 29) at the 6-month follow-up. Completion rates were significantly higher at each follow-up time point compared with baseline (P &lt; .001).

CONCLUSIONS:
Families of technology-dependent children admitted to our PICU have significant disaster-preparedness needs, which can be addressed with an inpatient intervention.

Published: November 2019

OBJECTIVES:
To determine if NICU teams participating in a multicenter quality improvement (QI) collaborative achieve increased compliance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) core elements for antibiotic stewardship and demonstrate reductions in antibiotic use (AU) among newborns.

METHODS:
From January 2016 to December 2017, multidisciplinary teams from 146 NICUs participated in Choosing Antibiotics Wisely, an Internet-based national QI collaborative conducted by the Vermont Oxford Network consisting of interactive Web sessions, a series of 4 point-prevalence audits, and expert coaching designed to help teams test and implement the CDC core elements of antibiotic stewardship. The audits assessed unit-level adherence to the CDC core elements and collected patient-level data about AU. The AU rate was defined as the percentage of infants in the NICU receiving 1 or more antibiotics on the day of the audit.

RESULTS:
The percentage of NICUs implementing the CDC core elements increased in each of the 7 domains (leadership: 15.4%–68.8%; accountability: 54.5%–95%; drug expertise: 61.5%–85.1%; actions: 21.7%–72.3%; tracking: 14.7%–78%; reporting: 6.3%–17.7%; education: 32.9%–87.2%; P &lt; .005 for all measures). The median AU rate decreased from 16.7% to 12.1% (P for trend &lt; .0013), a 34% relative risk reduction.

CONCLUSIONS:
NICU teams participating in this QI collaborative increased adherence to the CDC core elements of antibiotic stewardship and achieved significant reductions in AU.
Neighborhood Poverty and Pediatric Intensive Care Use
Authors: Andrist Erica , Riley Carley L. , Brokamp Cole , Taylor Stuart , Beck Andrew F. 
Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND:
Disparities in health service use have been described across a range of sociodemographic factors. Patterns of PICU use have not been thoroughly assessed.

METHODS:
This was a population-level, retrospective analysis of admissions to the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center PICU between 2011 and 2016. Residential addresses of patients were geocoded and spatially joined to census tracts. Pediatric patients were eligible for inclusion if they resided within Hamilton County, Ohio. PICU admission and bed-day rates were calculated by using numerators of admissions and bed days, respectively, over a denominator of tract child population. Relationships between tract-level PICU use and child poverty were assessed by using Spearman’s ρ and analysis of variance. Analyses were event based; children admitted multiple times were counted as discrete admissions.

RESULTS:
There were 4071 included admissions involving 3129 unique children contributing a total of 12 297 PICU bed days. Child poverty was positively associated with PICU admission rates (r = 0.59; P &lt; .001) and bed-day rates (r = 0.47; P &lt; .001). When tracts were grouped into quintiles based on child poverty rates, the PICU bed-day rate ranged from 23.4 days per 1000 children in the lowest poverty quintile to 81.9 days in the highest poverty quintile (P &lt; .001).

CONCLUSIONS:
The association between poverty and poor health outcomes includes pediatric intensive care use. This association exists for children who grow up in poverty and around poverty. Future efforts should characterize the interplay between patient- and neighborhood-level risk factors and explore neighborhood-level interventions to improve child health.
