Çalışmamızın amacı, biyokimya
laboratuvarımızda yeni uygulanan ve hastane otomasyonu tarafından klinisyenlere
sunulan bazı parametrelerin farkındalık tespitinin yapılmasıdır. Yapılan
araştırmada klinisyenlere anket üzerinden HOMA-IR, eGFR ve dCa hakkında,
çeşitli bilgiler soruldu. Elde edilen veriler, istatistiksel açıdan
değerlendirildi ve klinisyenlerin farkındalığı ölçüldü. Anket çalışmamıza
değişik kliniklerden 100 doktor katıldı. Araştırmaya katılan kişilerin
ünvanlara göre dağılımı; 28 uzman doktor, 16 akademisyen ve 56 asistan şeklinde
oldu. Branşlara göre dağılım, dahili 65
ve cerrahi 35 hekim şeklinde idi. Klinisyenlerin ünvanlarına göre HOMA-IR den
haberdar olma dağılımları anlamlı farklılık gösterdi (p=0.007). En çok haberi
olan klinisyenlerin öğretim üyeleri (%75), en az haberi olanların ise asistanlar
oduğu görüldü (%33.9). Öte yandan
haberdar olan hekimlerin sadece %21’i HOMA-IR’yi kullanmakta idi. eGFR için
durum şu şekildedir; 91 hekim haberdar, 9 hekim habersiz idi. eGFR kullanan
hekim sayısı 67 iken, 33 hekim kullanmadığını ifade etti. Katılımcıların %74’ü
eGFR’nin işe yaradığını, %11’i işe yaramadığını ve %15’i ise fikri olmadığını
ifade etti. İstatistiksel açıdan anlamlı çıkan bu durumda dikkat çeken detay
ise, cerrahi branşlarda görülen eGFR işe yarama oranının, HOMA-IR’ye göre
oldukça yüksek çıkmasıdır (p&lt;0,001). dCa araştırmamızda ise, katılımcıların
%84’ü önemli olduğunu ifade etmişlerdir. Sonuç olarak yapılan çalışmamız
göstermektedir ki; biyokimya laboratuvarında yeni uygulamalardan klinisyenler
haberdar, ama kullanma noktasında yeterince aktif değillerdir.

IntroductionWith growing amounts of data available, identification of clusters of persons linked to each other by transmission of an infectious disease increasingly relies on automated algorithms. We propose cluster finding to be a two-step process: first, possible transmission clusters are identified using a cluster algorithm, second, the plausibility that the identified clusters represent genuine transmission clusters is evaluated.AimTo introduce visual tools to assess automatically identified clusters.MethodsWe developed tools to visualise: (i) clusters found in dimensions of time, geographical location and genetic data; (ii) nested sub-clusters within identified clusters; (iii) intra-cluster pairwise dissimilarities per dimension; (iv) intra-cluster correlation between dimensions. We applied our tools to notified mumps cases in the Netherlands with available disease onset date (January 2009 – June 2016), geographical information (location of residence), and pathogen sequence data (n = 112). We compared identified clusters to clusters reported by the Netherlands Early Warning Committee (NEWC).ResultsWe identified five mumps clusters. Three clusters were considered plausible. One was questionable because, in phylogenetic analysis, genetic sequences related to it segregated in two groups. One was implausible with no smaller nested clusters, high intra-cluster dissimilarities on all dimensions, and low intra-cluster correlation between dimensions. The NEWC reports concurred with our findings: the plausible/questionable clusters corresponded to reported outbreaks; the implausible cluster did not.ConclusionOur tools for assessing automatically identified clusters allow outbreak investigators to rapidly spot plausible transmission clusters for mumps and other human-to-human transmissible diseases. This fast information processing potentially reduces workload.

Published: March 2019

In the past, research scope of the ICT (Information and Communication Technology) was mainly based on performance and cost. The research community put insufficient effort to the energy consumed by ICTs and their impact on the environment. Current trends, such as increasing electricity costs, reserve limitations, and increasing emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are shifting the focus of ICT towards energy-efficient and well-performed solutions. Communication networks designed according to this energy efficiency criteria are called green networks. In this context, SDN architecture can have a significant role in reducing the energy consumption by decoupling control plane to a centralized controller that has global view of all underlying data plane devices. The research will be focused on energy efficiency analysis of Software Defined Network and financial possibilities for migration into SDN using LEAP taking the case study of Nepal Telecom!s backbone transmission network in Kathmandu region.

In ESL classroom, teachers need qualified reading material together with some questions excercicesto fill students’ need to train their higher order thinking. This opinion is in accordance with Miskiah (2015,87). She said that the learning material plays a very important role in a learning process, it is the representation of teacher’s explanation in the classroom. On the other side, learning material is one of the learning aid to achieve the core competency. It also helps teachers in learning process, helps students to learn one component systematically so that the student may be able to master a certain competency completely and integratedly. Moreover, learning material may be defined as series of facts, concept, foundation, procedures, and a devised generalisation specifically to make the learning process becomes easier (Abidin, 2012:33).This research analyses the effectiveness a product of HOTS questions for reading narrative text on IX grade students of SMPN 2 Jorong. the Procedure of instructionalmaterial development is aimed to make the material developed is suitable to the reader and the class condition.The research design applies 4D (four D model) Research and Development. According to Thiagarajan, (1974:6-9), this has 4 steps that is : defining, design, development, and disseminating. By the research the writer tries to dig studets critical thinking and they can be the creative students in the future. Keywords: HOTS questions , reading, narrative text
Can robot-based measurements improve prediction of motor performance after robot-assisted upper-limb rehabilitation in patients with moderate-to-severe sub-acute stroke?

Published: March 2019

Purpose: Patients with moderate-to-severe stroke-related upper limb impairment can benefit from repetitive robot-assisted training. However, predicting motor performance in these patients from baseline measurements, including robot-based parameters would help clinicians to provide optimal treatments for each individual. Methods: Forty-six patients with sub-acute stroke underwent a 16-session upper limb rehabilitation combining usual care and robotic therapy. Motor outcomes (Fugl-Meyer Assessment Upper Extremity (FMA) score) were retrospectively analysed and potential predictors of motor outcome (including baseline FMA scores, kinematics and number of repetitions performed in the first session etc.) were determined. Results: The 16-sessions upper limb combined training program led to significantly improved clinical outcomes (gains of 13.8±11.2 for total FMA score and 7.3±6.7 for FMA Shoulder/Elbow score). For the prediction model, time since stroke poorly explained the FMA total score (R2 < 35%). The model however found that time since stroke and initial value of FMA Shoulder/Elbow score were predictors of the FMA Shoulder/Elbow score: (R2 = 59.6%). Conclusion: This study found that clinical prediction of motor outcomes after moderate-to-severe upper-limb paresis is limited. However, initial proximal motor impairment severity predicted proximal motor performance. The value of baselines kinematics and of the number of repeated movements at initiation in the prediction would need further studies.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the image quality and x-ray dose associated with a transmission computed tomography (CT) component implemented within the same platform of an experimental benchtop x-ray fluorescence CT (XFCT) system for multimodal preclinical imaging applications. METHODS: Cone-beam CT scans were performed using an experimental benchtop CT + XFCT system and a cylindrically-shaped 3D-printed polymethyl methacrylate phantom (3 cm in diameter, 7 cm in height) loaded with various concentrations (0.05–1 wt. %) of gold nanoparticles (GNPs). Two commercial CT quality assurance phantoms containing 3D line-pair (LP) targets and contrast targets were also scanned. The x-ray beams of 40 and 62 kVp, both filtered by 0.08 mm Cu and 0.4 mm Al, were used with 17 ms of exposure time per projection at three current settings (2.5, 5, and 10 mA). The ordered-subset simultaneous algebraic reconstruction and total variation–minimization methods were used to reconstruct images. Sparse projection and short scan were considered to reduce the x-ray dose. The contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and modulation transfer function (MTF) were calculated. RESULTS: The lowest detectable concentration of GNPs (CNR > 5) and the highest spatial resolution (per MTF50%) were 0.10 wt. % and 9.5 LP/CM, respectively, based on the images reconstructed from 360 projections of the 40 kVp beam (or x-ray dose of 3.44 cGy). The background noise for the image resulting in the lowest GNP detection limit was 25 Hounsfield units. CONCLUSION: The transmission CT component within the current experimental benchtop CT + XFCT system produced images deemed acceptable for multimodal (CT + XFCT) imaging purposes, with less than 4 cGy of x-ray dose.
Rosjanie – między narodowością a tożsamością
Authors: Głąb Anna 
Published: March 2019

The article concerns the ethnic structure of the Russian Federation and the problems of national identity in the multiethnic state. A few distinct regions were identified based on ethnic, linguistic and religious components. They show that despite the Russian numerical superiority and the dominant role of Russian language and Russian culture, the Federation is a diverse state. Ethnocultural mosaics are situated throughout the state and it because of that any aspiration for larger autonomy or local separatism could destroy the Federation from the inside. A source for such aspirations may result from, for example, strong ethnic identity, which is especially important because of its naturalness, resulting from life and acting within constituent entities that were formed on the ethnic basis. The strength of ethnic identity resides in its stability, which played a significant role during the transformation period. On the other hand, the strong ethnic component in Russia is opposed to a weak civil identity, whose character is more formal. This second approach may be undermined by the results of public opinion polls. They show quite a strong and parallel identity with three groups: citizens at large, members of the same ethnic group and local community. In fact, it is difficult to precisely describe the dominant identity of the Russians. It is based on a peculiar dualism – ethnicity and citizenship.

Background: Combined recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) and iron therapy significantly reduced postoperative blood loss (PBL) and allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) in elderly hip fracture (HF) patients. However, the minimum effective rHuEPO dosage and route had not been studied before.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of single low dose preoperative intravenous rHuEPO on PBL and ABT in elderly HF.
Methods: A randomized controlled trial (RCT) in 32 elderly HF underwent surgical intervention was conducted. The patients were randomly assigned to receive a single dose of 10 000 IU rHuEPO (EPO group, n = 16) or placebo (control group, n = 16) on admission. All patients were given 200-mg iron sucrose intravenously for 3 days after admission. Perioperative data, outcome related to PBL, ABT, rHuEPO adverse effects, and functional outcome during 1-year period were collected and analyzed.
Results: There was no significant difference in demographic data, postoperative complication, and functional outcome between both groups (P < .05). Total hemoglobin loss (THL) and the number of patients receiving ABT in EPO group (2.1 ± 1.0 g/dL and 12 patients) did not significant differ from those in control group (2.2 ± 0.8 g/dL and 10 patients) (P = .81 and P = .44, respectively). However, EPO group demonstrated a nonsignificant greater in hemoglobin recovery (P = .07) and increase in reticulocyte count (P = .10).
Conclusion: Combined single low dose preoperative intravenous rHuEPO with iron therapy does not significantly reduce PBL and ABT in elderly HF compared to who received intravenous iron therapy alone. However, this adjunct rHuEPO may hasten the hemoglobin recovery and helpful for the patients’ outcome.

Published: March 2019

Abstract
How ground-based telescopes schedule their observations in response to different variables can significantly impact their efficiency. Namely, competing science priorities and constraints, variations in the weather, and the visibility of a particular part of the sky are some of the determining variables. In this paper we introduce the Feature-based telescope scheduler, which is an automated, decision-making algorithm. It offers controllability of the behavior, adjustability of the mission, and quick recoverability from interruptions for large ground-based telescopes. By framing the Feature-based telescope scheduler in the context of a coherent mathematical model, the functionality and performance of the algorithm are simple to interpret. Consequently, adapting this scheduler for a broad range of ground-based instruments is straightforward. This paper presents a generic version of the Feature-based scheduler, with minimal manual tailoring. We demonstrate its potential and flexibility to serve as a foundation for schedulers of the ground-based instruments. In addition, a modified version of the Feature-based scheduler for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is introduced and compared to the previous LSST schedulers.
Orbital Period Variation of KIC 10544976: Applegate Mechanism versus Light Travel Time Effect

Abstract
In recent years, several close post-common-envelope eclipsing binaries have been found to show cyclic eclipse timing variations (ETVs). This effect is usually interpreted either as the gravitational interaction among circumbinary bodies and the host binary—known as the light travel time (LTT) effect—or as the quadrupole moment variations in one magnetic active component—known as the Applegate mechanism. In this study, we present an analysis of the ETV and the magnetic cycle of the close binary KIC 10544976. This system is composed of a white dwarf and a red dwarf in a short orbital period (0.35 days) and was monitored by ground-based telescopes between 2005 and 2017 and by the Kepler satellite between 2009 and 2013. Using the Kepler data, we derived the magnetic cycle of the red dwarf by two ways: the rate and energy of flares and the variability due to spots. Both methods resulted in a cycle of ∼600 days, which is in agreement with magnetic cycles measured for single low-mass stars. The orbital period of KIC 10544976 shows only one long-term variation which can be fitted by an LTT effect with period of ∼16.8 yr. Hence, one possible explanation for the ETVs is the presence of a circumbinary body with a minimal mass of ∼13.4 M
Jup. In the particular scenario of coplanarity between the external body and the inner binary, the third body mass is also ∼13.4 M
Jup. In this case, the circumbinary planet must either have survived the evolution of the host binary or have been formed as a consequence of its evolution.

Abstract
The extragalactic background light (EBL) can be probed via the absorption imprint it leaves in the spectra of gamma-ray sources (

). We recently developed a dedicated technique to reconstruct the EBL, and its evolution with redshift, from γ-ray optical depth data using a large sample of blazars detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope. Here, we extend this data set to the TeV regime using ground-based Cherenkov observations of 38 blazars and report the first homogeneous measurement of the EBL spectral intensity covering the ultraviolet to infrared wavelengths (∼0.1–100 μm). A minimal EBL throughout the wavelength range with respect to integrated galaxy light is found, allowing little additional unresolved emission from faint or truly diffuse populations setting an upper limit of ≲4 nW m−2 sr−1 at 1.4 μm. In particular, the cosmic optical background at z = 0 is found to be

. This work lays the foundation for accurate gamma-ray measurements of the EBL across its whole spectral range using a combination of GeV and TeV data.

Authors: Owen Donna C. , Ashcraft Alyce S. 
Published: March 2019

The current study sought to obtain pilot data from a Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation (SBAR) communication intervention focused on the shared meaning construct of the sensemaking model and explore shared meaning in communication between nursing home (NH) nurses and physicians. The study design was an exploratory sequential mixed method with a pre/post quasi-experiment. Grounded theory was used to collect and analyze nurse and physician interviews and medical records. The Pathway to Shared Meaning model illustrating distinct processes supported use of the sensemaking model for understanding nurse–physician communication. Quantitative changes in communication were not significant. Shared meaning and training in SBAR for communication can be used to strengthen the design and use of structured communication in NHs.

Targets:
Nurses and physicians providing direct care in NHs.

Intervention Description:
Stories describing nurse–physician sharing of resident information using SBAR.

Mechanism of Action:
Mutual understanding of one another's perspective enhances communication.

Outcome:
Communication openness and satisfaction.
