Pressure Dependence of Electron Density Distribution of Ferroielectric KNbO3 Polymorphs by Maximum Entropy Method (MEM) Using Single Crystal Diffraction Study
Authors: Yamanaka Takamitsu , Okada Taku , Nakamoto Yuki , Ohi Kenji 
Published: June 2019

AbstractSingle-crystal structure analysis of KNbO3 has been executed under high pressure through diamond anvil cell installed in the four-circle diffractometer using synchrotron radiation at Photon Factory, KEK in order to clarify the dielectric property. KNbO3 has three structural transitions with increasing pressure at ambient temperature: from orthorhombic structure with the space group Cm2m (Amm2) to tetragonal structure (P4mm) at about 7.0 GPa, to cubic structure (Pm3m) at about 10.0 GPa. The highest-pressure cubic phase is paraelectric, and the other two phases are ferroelectric. The dielectric changes in KNbO3 are clarified by the successive pressure-change of the electron density distribution observed by maximum entropy method (MEM) using high-pressure diffraction data. The MEM electron density maps suggest that the tetragonal phase designates the largest polarization among three polymorphs. The maps also indicate that the localization of the valence electron around the cation position is more enhanced under higher pressure.
Bird Distribution Dynamics - African black oystercatcher in South Africa
Authors: Lerm Rion Elias , Underhill Les G 
Published: June 2019

This is another paper on bird distribution dynamics in Biodiversity Observations. The objective of this series of papers is to report on the ranges of bird species as revealed by the Second Southern African Bird Atlas Project (SABAP2, 2007 onwards) and to describe how their ranges have changed since the first bird atlas (SABAP1, mainly 1987 /- 1991), about two decades apart. The African Black Oystercatcher Haemetopus moquini is neither considered a Red-listed species globally nor regionally however, this endemic and iconic bird was expected to decline due to a variety of anthropogenic and natural influences hence, it received much attention from the scientific community. SABAP data supported the findings of some previous projects that looked at both oytsercacther distribution, dispersion and feeding ecology along South Africa's (SA) coastline as well as that of the alien Mediterranean Mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. Possible reasons for a relatively recent and northern presence along the SA coastline could be due to southern populations experiencing food shortages during the breeding season that result in seasonal dispersion or carrying capacity on the mainland has been reached. Inside the /oystercatcher's breeding range, the alien mussel serves as an additional food source that probably explains the largest SABAP2 reporting rates along the southern regions of the coastline as this area coincides with the /mussel's distribution range.

Published: June 2019

Introduction. Currently, no national standard exists for educatingmedical students regarding radiography or formal research indicatingthe level of improvement regarding computed tomography(CT) interpretation of medical students during clinical rotations.
Methods. Students were evaluated based on their response totwenty-two open-ended questions regarding diagnosis and treatmentof eleven de-identified CT images of life-threatening injuries.The number of incorrect answers was compared withcorrect or partially correct answers between students startingthird-year clinical rotations and those starting their fourth year.
Results. Survey results were collected from 65 of 65 (100%) beginningthird-year students and 9 of 60 (15%) beginning fourthyearstudents. Students in their fourth-year had less incorrectanswers compared to third-year students, with five questionsreflecting a statistically significant reduction in incorrect responses.The image with the least incorrect for both groups wasepidural hemorrhage, 33.9% and 18.5% incorrect for third-yearstudents for diagnosis and treatment, respectively, and 11.1%and 0% incorrect for fourth-year students. Outside of this image,the range of incorrect answers for third-year students was75.4% to 100% and 44.4% to 100% for fourth-year students.
Conclusion. Baseline CT knowledge of medical students,regardless of clinical experience, indicated a strong deficit,as more students were incorrect than correct for themajority of CT images. KS J Med 2017;10(3):55-58.

Published: June 2019

Introduction. All-terrain vehicles (ATVs) are associated with injury,mortality, and healthcare costs. ATV related injuries are less severewhen consistent safety practices are followed, however, ATV safetyregulations are varied among states. This study sought to surveyKansas ATV dealers and track owners to determine safety promotionpractices.
Methods. A cross-sectional telephone survey was conducted ofKansas ATV dealers and tracks. Survey questions included promotionand sale of safety equipment, provision of ATV safety information,and respondent characteristics.
Results. Of those contacted, 32% of dealers and 31% of tracksresponded to the survey. Most ATV dealers sell safety gear (70% -100%) and all recommend safety gear to buyers and riders. All ATVtracks reported requiring helmets (100%) but were varied regardingother forms of safety gear. The majority of ATV dealers (77%) recommendedsafety courses, but only 31% of dealers and 40% of tracksoffered courses. Eighty percent of ATV tracks and 52% of dealers feltthey had a professional responsibility to educate riders/owners onsafety.
Conclusions. Safety promotion by ATV dealers in Kansas consistentlywas recommended, but often limited to the sales of safety gear(helmets and gloves) or the provision of manufacturer provided safetymaterials. Further, ATV dealers reported rarely offering skills tests orsafety courses to buyers. In Kansas, safety promotion at the point ofsale or track level could be improved to increase public awareness ofATV safety practices. KS J Med 2017;10(4):76-78.

Published: June 2019

Introduction. Few data currently exist which are focused on typeand severity of onshore oil extraction-related injuries. The purposeof this study was to evaluate injury patterns among onshore oil fieldoperations.
Methods. A retrospective review was conducted of all traumapatients aged 18 and older with an onshore oil field-related injuryadmitted to an American College of Surgeons-verified level 1 traumacenter between January 1, 2003 and June 30, 2012. Data collectedincluded demographics, injury severity and details, hospital outcomes,and disposition.
Results. A total of 66 patients met inclusion criteria. All patientswere male, of which the majority were Caucasian (81.8%, n = 54)with an average age of 36.5 ± 11.8 years, injury severity score of 9.4 ±8.9, and Glasgow Coma Scale score of 13.8 ± 3.4. Extremity injurieswere the most common (43.9%, n = 29), and most were the resultof being struck by an object (40.9%, n = 27). Approximately onethirdof patients (34.8%, n = 23) were admitted to the intensive careunit. Nine patients (13.6%) required mechanical ventilation while27 (40.9%) underwent operative treatment. The average hospitallength of stay was 5.8 ± 16.6 days, and most patients (78.8%, n = 52)were discharged home. Four patients suffered permanent disabilities,and there were two deaths.
Conclusions. Increased domestic onshore oil production inevitablywill result in higher numbers of oil field-related traumas. By focusingon employees who are at the greatest risk for injuries and by targetingthe main causes of injuries, training programs can lead to a decreasein injury incidence.

Published: June 2019

Introduction. Recent studies have provided guidelines on the use ofhead computed tomography (CT) scans in pediatric trauma patients.The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence of theseguidelines among concussed pediatric patients.
Methods. A retrospective review was conducted of patients fouryears or younger with a concussion from blunt trauma. Demographics,head injury characteristics, clinical indicators for head CT scan(severe mechanism, physical exam findings of basilar skull fracture,non-frontal scalp hematoma, Glasgow Coma Scale score, loss ofconsciousness, neurologic deficit, altered mental status, vomiting,headache, amnesia, irritability, behavioral changes, seizures, lethargy),CT results, and hospital course were collected.
Results. One-hundred thirty-three patients (78.2%) received a headCT scan, 7 (5.3%) of which demonstrated fractures and/or bleeds. Allpatients with skull fractures and/or bleeds had at least one clinicalindicator present on arrival. Clinical indicators that were observedmore commonly in patients with positive CT findings than in thosewith negative CT findings included severe mechanism (100% vs.54.8%, respectively, p = 0.020) and signs of a basilar skull fracture(28.6% vs. 0.8%, respectively, p = 0.007). Severe mechanism alonewas found to be sensitive, but not specific, whereas signs of a basilarskull fracture, headache, behavioral changes, and vomiting were specific,but not sensitive. No neurosurgical procedures were necessary,and there were no deaths.
Conclusions. Clinical indicators were present in patients with positiveand negative CT findings. However, severe mechanism of injuryand signs of basilar skull fracture were more common for patients withpositive CT findings. Kans J Med 2018;11(2):38-43.

Published: June 2019

Introduction. This study compared outcomes between patientsinjured at a motorbike track, which requires riders to follow safetyequipment guidelines, and those involved in recreational riding wheresafety equipment usage is voluntary.
Methods. A retrospective review was conducted of all patients presentingwith motorbike-related injuries at an American College ofSurgeons verified level-I trauma center between January 1, 2009 andDecember 31, 2013. Data collected included demographics, injurydetails, safety equipment use, hospitalization details, and dischargedisposition. Comparisons were made regarding protective equipmentusage.
Results. Among the 115 patients admitted, more than half (54.8%, n =63) were injured on a motorbike track, and 45.2% (n = 52) were injuredin a recreational setting. The majority of patients were male (93.9%),Caucasian (97.4%), and between the ages of 18 to 54 (64.4%). Helmetusage was higher among track riders (95.2%, n = 60) than recreationalriders (46.2%, n = 24, p < 0.0001). Comparisons of injury severity andoutcomes between those who wore protective equipment and thosewho did not were not significant.
Conclusions. Even though track riders wore protective equipmentmore than recreational riders, there was no difference between thegroups regarding injury severity or hospital outcomes. These resultssuggested that motocross riders should not rely on protective equipmentas the only measure of injury prevention.Kans J Med 2018;11(2):44-47.
The Cost of Routine Follow-Up in Total Joint Arthroplasty and the Influence of These Visits on Treatment Plans
Authors: Hendricks Thomas J. , Chong Alexander C.M. , Cusick Robert P. 
Published: June 2019

Introduction. Many physicians recommend annual or biennial visitsafter total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA). This studysought to establish the cost of a post-operative visit to both the healthcare system and patient and identify if these visits altered patientmanagement.
Methods. A prospective cohort study was conducted using patientspresenting for follow-up after THA or TKA from April throughDecember 2016. All surgeries were performed by a single orthopaedicsurgeon in Wichita, Kansas. All eligible subjects that met the inclusioncriteria received and completed a questionnaire about the personalcost of the visit and their assessment of their function and outcomeafter total joint arthroplasty. The physician also completed a questionnairethat examined the cost of the visit to the health care systemand whether the clinical or radiographic findings altered patient management.
Results. Fifty-six patients participated with an average length of follow-up of 4.5 ± 4.1 years since surgery. The average patient cost was$135.20 ± $190.53 (range, $1.65 - $995.88), and the average visit timefor the patient was 3.9 ± 2.9 hours. Eighty percent of patients reportedno pain during the clinic encounter, and 11% reported loss of function.Eighty-four percent thought the visit was necessary. Physician timefor each visit lasted 12.9 ± 3.7 minutes (range, 10 - 20 minutes). Only9% of patient encounters resulted in an alteration in patient management.This occurred at an average follow-up time of 3.6 ± 1.8 yearsafter the index procedure. The average cost of each visit to the healthcare system at large was $117.31 ± 60.53 (range, $93.90 - $428.28).
Conclusions. The findings of this study advise total joint patients andorthopaedic surgeons regarding the cost of routine post-operativeappointments and whether these visits alter patient management.The majority of the routine follow-up visits after THA and TKA didnot result in an alteration in patient management, but added substantialcost to the health care system.

Optimising martial arts training by using gymnastics exercises
Authors: Bianca Chera Ferrario 
Published: June 2019

Engaging in high-performance competitions (World Combat Games, World Championships, European and/or Balkan Championships) has made it necessary for the martial technique to have the benefit of knowledge from other sports disciplines as well, particularly gymnastics, acrobatic and artistic gymnastics, in order to give greater weight to competition artistic programmes which, throughout the world, reach degrees of complexity that had not been encountered until a few years ago. The research objectives from our study aims to are to elaborate a concise and efficient material on the factors that have led to the achievement of the performance presented in the preamble of the paper. We believe that the judicious combination of Ju-jitsu technical elements and artistic and rhythmic gymnastics elements may decisively contribute to achieving exceptional performances and consolidating motor skills and competences. We shall thus venture to say that the differences between the two groups rise from the implementation of superior Ju-jitsu techniques and acrobatic and artistic gymnastics elements.The training period, the development and completion of the experimental programme, have allowed us to confirm the elaborated hypothesis and achieve remarkable performances. Finally, we are convinced that our study will be useful to the vast majority of martial arts specialists who approach the Duo Show system and not only, thus leading to the increase of sports performance and diversification of training methods.

Mundos invisíveis: Um faz de conta que dialoga com diversas realidades
Authors: Moreira William Scheidegger 
Published: June 2019

Resumo - O presente artigo trata de um relato de experiência realizado a partir de observações feitas em uma escola regular, na zona norte do Rio de Janeiro. Aqui, serão oferecidos subsídios para que possamos refletir um pouco mais a respeito da importância do brincar criativo no desenvolvimento infantil. A excessiva influência midiática que crianças vêm sofrendo diariamente por conta de demasiadas exposições à mídia de tela e a intersecção entre tais influências e o brincar imaginativo, pautando as dificuldades que algumas crianças vêm apresentando em relação ao brincar criativo por conta de tais exposições que, também serão alvo para reflexão. Muitas vezes, tais exposições terminam por criar demagogias específicas nas brincadeiras livres de nossas crianças, comprometendo a criatividade.

Published: June 2019

Esta pesquisa objetiva compreender a educomunicação como potencializadora do processo de aprendizagem da Língua Inglesa por alunos do Ensino Médio. Remetemos a pesquisa à Educomunicação, considerando as profícuas contribuições que a recente área pode oferecer, promovendo mais significado na construção do conhecimento comunicativo da língua, cujos conteúdos e metodologias atuais, por vezes, parecem não fazer sentido para os discentes e pouco têm contribuído para o processo de aprendizagem. Considera-se que mudanças no processo de construção de conhecimento no ambiente escolar precisam acontecer, estabelecendo ecossistemas educomunicativos em que os sujeitos exerçam com autonomia a elaboração de sentidos de acordo com suas realidades e identidades culturais, podendo agregá-los de forma a construírem juntos e de forma dinâmica os novos saberes.

Who Are the Victims of NGRI Acquittees? A Study of Belgian Internees
Authors: Jeandarme Inge , Vandenbosch Laura , Groenhuijsen Marc , Oei T. I. , Bogaerts Stefan 
Published: June 2019

BackgroundThe limited literature on victim characteristics of offenders found not guilty by reason of insanity (NGRI) shows that most victims are adults who are known to the offender. It is currently unclear whether victims are mainly male or female or whether there are differences in the type of victims according to the offenders' psychiatric disorder.MethodVictim characteristics were retrospectively collected from 362 NGRI acquittees, and the influence of psychiatric diagnoses on victim profiles was examined.ResultsVictims were mainly adult acquaintances and were equally likely to be male or female. Family members and caregivers were the most frequent type of acquaintance victims. Further analyses suggest that these victim characteristics are similar for perpetrators with different psychiatric diagnoses.ConclusionVictimization of strangers and minors was unlikely in NGRI offenders.

A House That Once Was by J. Fogliano
Authors: Olson Lisa 
Published: June 2019

Fogliano, Julie. A House That Once Was. Illustrated by Lane Smith, Roaring Brook Press, 2018.
This is a picture book that remarks upon the curiosity and imagination of childhood exploration. The setting is an abandoned house in a forest that is found by two adventuring children. Although there is no dialogue between the characters, the narrator guides the reader through the possibilities of a house that was once a home. Who once lived in this lost and lonely house?
The writing is done in free verse and could easily be read as a poem independent of the images. However, the illustrations extend the meaning of the text and give further imaginative options of the people who may have lived in the house. The stealthy reader will find many clues into the lives of the past homeowners.
Lane Smith’s illustrations have been done in two different media as a way to differentiate between current day and imagined past moments in time. The current day images are created with India ink drawings on colourful blotted backgrounds giving the scenes a washed, muted feeling. In contrast, the artwork in the imagined scenes are done in a mixed media with oil painting and paper collage elements.
The reader may experience a mixture of feelings while experiencing this book. One may feel despondent for the old house lost in the forest with a story to tell, a house that has been abandoned and forgotten. However, the reader may become encouraged to grow their own imagination and bloom a narration of what could have been. This book would be a lovely addition to any home, school, or public library and would be a joy to share with elementary aged children in order to encourage conversation and imagination.
