Authors: Dyulgerov Momchil , Oberti Roberta , Platevoet Bernard , Kadiyski Milen , Rusanov Ventzislav 
Published: July 2018

AbstractThe complete mineral description of potassic-magnesio-arfvedsonite, a recently approved (IMA2016-083) new species of the amphibole supergroup is provided using electron microprobe analysis (EMPA), laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, single-crystal structure refinement, Mössbauer and Raman spectroscopy, as well as measurement of optical and physical properties. The holotype material was found in syenitic and granitic dyke rocks in association with quartz, potassium feldspar and aegirine–augite from the Buhovo–Seslavtsi pluton, Bulgaria. Potassic-magnesio-arfvedsonite is monoclinic C2/m, with unit-cell parameters: a = 9.9804(11), b = 18.0127(19), c = 5.2971(6) Å, β = 104.341(2)° and V = 922.61 Å3. In transmitted plane-polarised light (λ = 590 cm–1), potassic-magnesio-arfvedsonite is pleochroic: X = yellow pale-green, Y = green and Z = dark-violet brown. It is biaxial (–), α = 1.645(2), β = 1.655(2), γ = 1.660(2) and 2Vmeas. = 60° and 2Vcalc. = 70°. The empirical unit formula obtained from EMPA and structure refinement is A(K0.86Na0.0.08)0.94B(Na1.74Ca0.25 Mn2+0.01)2.00C(Mg2.67Fe2+1.42Fe3+0.76Ti0.12Mn2+0.03)5.00TSi8O22W(OH1.58F0.22O0.20)2.00. The Fe3+/Fetot ratio (0.35) is consistent with both the Mössbauer spectra and the single-crystal structure refinement. The 10 strongest X-ray powder reflections [d values (in A°), I, (hkl)] are: 8.519, 80.5, (110); 3.402, 67.3, (131); 3.295, 41.0, (240); 3.173, 65.0, (310); 2.752, 35.6, ($\bar{3}$31); 2.715, 100.0 (151); 2.591, 44.1, (061); 2.542, 73.2, ($\bar{2}$02); 2.348, 38.5, ($\bar{3}$51); 2.174, 42.0, (261). Potassic-magnesio-arfvedsonite is the product of strongly peralkaline and potassic (perpotassic) magma compositions. Trace-element analysis shows that this amphibole did not exert significant control on trace-element distribution in the crystallising peralkaline magma.
An in situ study of the phase transitions among CaCO3 high-pressure polymorphs
Authors: Yuan Xueyin , Gao Chao , Gao Jing 
Published: July 2018

AbstractThe phase transitions involving calcite (CaCO3-I), CaCO3-II, CaCO3-III and CaCO3-IIIb were investigated using a diamond anvil cell and micro-Raman spectroscopy. Based on the results obtained fromin situobservations and Raman measurements made with six natural calcite crystals, the phase transition from calcite to CaCO3-II took place between 1.56 and 1.67 GPa under ambient temperature. Under a precise pressure of 1.97 ± 0.03 GPa, three CaCO3samples were observed to transform from CaCO3-II directly to CaCO3-III, while in the other three samples both CaCO3-III and CaCO3-IIIb crystal structures were detected. Transformation from CaCO3-IIIb to CaCO3-III was completed in a short period in one sample, whereas in the other two samples coexistence of CaCO3-III and CaCO3-IIIb was observed over a wide pressure range from 1.97 to 3.38 GPa, with sluggish transformation from CaCO3-IIIb to CaCO3-III being observed after the samples were preserved under 3.38 GPa for 72 h. Hence, it can be concluded that CaCO3-IIIb is a metastable intermediate phase occurring during the reconstructive transformation from CaCO3-II to CaCO3-III. Splitting of the C–O in-plane bending (ν4) and symmetric stretching (ν1) vibrations and appearance of new lattice vibrations in the Raman spectra of CaCO3-III and CaCO3-IIIb suggest a lowering in crystal symmetry during the transformation from CaCO3-II through CaCO3-IIIb to CaCO3-III, which is in good agreement with the observed sequence of phase symmetries.
District nurses must guard against inappropriately accessing patient records
Authors: Griffith Richard 
Published: July 2018

Two NHS workers were recently disciplined after inappropriately accessing the records of the singer Ed Sheeran who had required treatment for a fractured wrist and elbow after falling from his bicycle ( Embury-Dennis 2018 ). The increasingly common use of electronic records across the NHS now allows nurses, including district nurses, to access a large archive of patient information that was much more difficult to obtain when records were manually held paper records. There have been several instances where curiosity and, occasionally, more malicious reasons have led district nurses and others to access those records and read the notes of high profile patients or persons known to them. In this article Richard Griffith cautions that district nurses who access and read the record of a person who is not in their care is in breach of both their duty of confidence and the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation 2016/679 EU ).

Authors: Crampton Jennifer S , O'Brien Su , Heathcote Kathryn 
Published: July 2018

Background There is compelling evidence for the benefits of exercise during pregnancy for both the mother and fetus. Aim To investigate the attitudes and beliefs of physiotherapists and midwives in the North of England regarding the provision of recreational exercise during pregnancy and to identify the sources of information used to influence this. Method This study used an observational cross-sectional design. A questionnaire was divided into three sections: demographic information, attitudes and beliefs about recreational exercise, and sources of information. The questionnaire was distributed to a convenience sample of 152 physiotherapists and 168 midwives in the North of England. Descriptive statistics and frequency tables were calculated. Findings The majority of the findings were positive in relation to attitudes and beliefs about recreational exercise during pregnancy among healthcare practitioners. Conclusion It is clear from this study that continuing professional development is required to update some healthcare professionals' knowledge base.
Minimally invasive reduction and percutaneous fixation versus open reduction and internal fixation for displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures
Authors: Majeed Haroon , Barrie James , Munro Wendy , McBride Donald 
Published: July 2018

The aim of this article is to systematically identify and analyse research evidence available to compare the outcomes of minimally invasive reduction and percutaneous fixation (MIRPF) versus open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) for displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures. Articles from 2000 to 2016 were searched through MEDLINE (PubMed), Cochrane Library, Embase, ScienceDirect, Scopus and ISI Web of Knowledge using Boolean logic and text words. Of the 570 articles identified initially, nine were selected including three randomized controlled trials and six retrospective comparative studies. All nine studies had a total of 1031 patients with 1102 displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures. Mean follow-up was 33 months. Of these, 602 (54.6%) were treated with MIRPF and 500 (45.4%) were treated with ORIF. Overall incidence of wound-related complications in patients treated with MIRPF was 4.3% (0% to 13%) compared with 21.2% (11.7% to 35%) in the ORIF group Functional outcomes were reported to be better in the minimally invasive group in all studies; however, the results did not reach statistical significance in some studies. All the studies had methodological flaws that put them at either ‘unclear’ or ‘high’ risk of bias for multiple domains. Overall quality of the available evidence is poor in support of either surgical technique due to small sample size, flaws in study designs and high risk of bias for various elements. Individual studies have reported minimally invasive techniques to be an effective alternative with lower risk of wound complications and better functional outcomes.

Clean and dirty energy cultures in the European Union
Authors: ROSICKI REMIGIUSZ 
Published: July 2018

Przedmiotem analizy w tekście są „kultury energetyczne” państw członkowskich Unii Europejskiej (UE-28). W tekście podjęto próbę zweryfikowania zasadności twierdzeń, które wskazują na możliwość pogrupowania państw Unii Europejskiej według szczególnego rodzaju praktyk użytkowania energii. W celu uszczegółowienia problemu badawczego w pracy przedstawiono następujące pytania badawcze: (1) Czy zasadne jest twierdzenie, że w UE-28 mamy do czynienia ze specyficznymi „kulturami energetycznymi”? (2) Jeżeli zasadne jest twierdzenie o istnieniu specyficznych „kultur energetycznych”, to w związku z jakimi cechami następuje podział między państwami UE-28? Postawione pytania należy związać z zamiarem stwierdzenia istnienia podziału państw w UE-28 na „czyste” i „brudne” kultury energetyczne. Za podziałem tym przemawiają poszczególne cechy państw członkowskich UE-28, które związane są produkcją, konsumpcją i transformacją energii, np. emisja GHG i zaangażowanie w sektor węglowy. Do weryfikacji założeń przyjętych w analizie posłużono się jedną z metod aglomeracyjnych (czyli metodą Warda) i jedną z metod optymalizacji danego grupowania obiektów (czyli metodę k-średnich). Ponadto, za pomocą poszczególnych testów, podjęto się analizy różnic w poziomie parametrów pomiędzy wyodrębnionymi skupieniami państw. Dodatkowo, wyodrębniono grupy niezależnych czynników metodą głównych składowych oraz wskazano zakres istotnych różnic w poziomie wyodrębnionych czynników między pogrupowanymi państwami UE-28.
Dynamic Measurement of Foam-Sized Yarn Properties from Yarn Sequence Images

Published: July 2018

Abstract
Unlike the normal sizing method, the foam sizing had been proven to be a low-add-on technology. To investigate the effect of foam sizing, film thickness, sized-yarn evenness, and size penetration rate were necessary to evaluate the performances of foam-sized yarns. However, the conventional image analysis of sized-yarn cross sections primarily relied on artificial testing with a low efficiency. This paper proposed a novel dynamic method to measure the sized-yarn properties including film thickness, sized-yarn evenness, and size penetration rate based on yarn sequence images captured from a moving yarn. A method of dynamic threshold module was adopted to obtain threshold for segmenting yarns in the sequence images. K-means clustering algorithm was applied to segment pixels of the images into yarn and background. To further remove burrs and noise in the images, two judgment templates were carried out to extract the information of yarn core. The film thickness, sized-yarn evenness, and size penetration rate were measured based on the yarn core of each frame in sequence images. In order to compare with the experimental results of the dynamic method, the yarn properties of the same samples were tested by static and artificial testing. Results revealed that the proposed method could efficiently and accurately detect the film thickness, sized-yarn evenness, and size penetration rate.

Abstract
Gerstner, GR, Giuliani, HK, Mota, JA, and Ryan, ED. Influence of muscle quality on the differences in strength from slow to fast velocities in career firefighters. J Strength Cond Res 32(10): 2982–2986, 2018—The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between ultrasound-derived muscle quality and the %decrease in peak torque (PT) from slow to fast velocities in career firefighters. Thirty-nine male career firefighters (mean ± SD: age = 36.90 ± 6.87 years; stature = 180.93 ± 6.98 cm; mass = 109.30 ± 20.57 kg; and body mass index [BMI] = 33.24 ± 4.95 kg·m−2) performed 3 maximal concentric isokinetic contractions at a slow (1.05 rad·s−1) and fast (4.19 rad·s−1) velocity in random order. The velocity-related decrease in PT was calculated as the %decrease from 1.05 to 4.19 rad·s−1. Ultrasonography was used to determine subcutaneous fat corrected echo intensity (EI) to represent muscle quality before strength testing. The results indicated that there was a significant relationship between EI and %decrease in PT while adjusting for age (r
partial = 0.331, p = 0.042), and age and BMI (r
partial = 0.325, p = 0.050). These findings suggest that velocity-impaired isokinetic strength may be influenced by alterations in skeletal muscle tissue composition. Future studies are needed to determine whether the %decrease in PT is related to performance during critical firefighter tasks.

Objective
Hybrid Fc-fused rhGH (GX-H9) is a long-acting recombinant human growth hormone (GH) under clinical development for both adults and children with GH deficiency (GHD). We compared the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of weekly and every other week (EOW) dosages of GX-H9 with those of daily GH administration in adult GHD (AGHD) patients.

Design
This was a randomized, open-label, active-controlled and dose-escalation study conducted in 16 endocrinology centers in Europe and Korea.

Methods
Forty-five AGHD patients with or without prior GH treatment were enrolled. Patients with prior GH treatments were required to have received the last GH administration at least 1 month prior to randomization. Subjects were sequentially assigned to treatment groups. Fifteen subjects were enrolled to each treatment group and randomly assigned to receive either GX-H9 or Genotropin (4:1 ratio). GX-H9 dosage regimens for Groups 1, 2 and 3 were 0.1 mg/kg weekly, 0.3 mg/kg EOW and 0.2 mg/kg EOW, respectively. All Genotropin-assigned subjects received 6 µg/kg Genotropin, regardless of treatment group. Main outcome analyses included measurements of serum insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-I), safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity.

Results
Mean GX-H9 peak and total exposure increased with an increase in dose after a single-dose administration. The mean IGF-I response was sustained above baseline over the intended dose interval of 168 h for the weekly and 336 h for the EOW GX-H9 groups. Safety profiles and immunogenicity were not different across the treatment groups and with Genotropin.

Conclusions
GX-H9 has the potential for up to twice-monthly administration.

Published: July 2018

OBJECTIVES:
We sought to examine the effect of a caregiver coaching intervention, Plans for Action and Care Transitions (PACT), on hospital use among children with medical complexity (CMC) within a complex care medical home at an urban tertiary medical center.

METHODS:
PACT was an 18-month caregiver coaching intervention designed to influence key drivers of hospitalizations: (1) recognizing critical symptoms and conducting crisis plans and (2) supporting comprehensive hospital transitions. Usual care was within a complex care medical home. Primary outcomes included hospitalizations and 30-day readmissions. Secondary outcomes included total charges and mortality. Intervention effects were examined with bivariate and multivariate analyses.

RESULTS:
From December 2014 to September 2016, 147 English- and Spanish-speaking CMC &lt;18 years old and their caregivers were randomly assigned to PACT (n = 77) or usual care (n = 70). Most patients were Hispanic, Spanish-speaking, and publicly insured. Although in unadjusted intent-to-treat analyses, only charges were significantly reduced, both hospitalizations and charges were lower in adjusted analyses. Hospitalization rates (per 100 child-years) were 81 for PACT vs 101 for usual care (adjusted incident rate ratio: 0.61 [95% confidence interval 0.38–0.97]). Adjusted mean charges per patient were $14 206 lower in PACT. There were 0 deaths in PACT vs 4 in usual care (log-rank P = .04).

CONCLUSIONS:
Among CMC within a complex care program, a health coaching intervention designed to identify, prevent, and manage patient-specific crises and postdischarge transitions appears to lower hospitalizations and charges. Future research should confirm findings in broader populations and care models.

El presente trabajo tiene como propósito primordial analizar un poema de Antonio Machado, desde una doble perspectiva de individualidad: como poema de dicho autor, y como objeto poético autónomo. Complementariamente, el de aprovechar el análisis con algún fin docente, en el sentido de que sin proponer una metodología que deba seguirse con ortodoxia, se alcance a ver que en el análisis poético, que inclusive en el de obras literarias de otro género resulta muy conveniente tener un criterio, enriquecido por el avance de las teorías correspondientes; pero que, al final, la naturaleza misma del objeto obliga al investigador a superar cualquier ortodoxia; que en defmitiva, todo trabajo exige un cierto grado de creatividad: el acondicionamiento de aquellas teorías y los métodos que de ellas se deriven a la realidad objetiva del texto estudiado.

Delays in Africa Accessing Emergency Obstetric Care in Sub-Saharan; Kenya Situation
Authors: Mutuku J. , Githae Dr. M. 
Published: July 2018

Delay in accessing facility for delivery by a skilled person has huge impact on maternal health outcomes in developing countries. However, women’s deaths at birth in Sub-Saharan countries remain high due to challenges associated with accessing immediate Emergency Obstetric Care (EmOC) at birth.
While the deaths are preventable through availability of EmOC and skilled persons attending to delivery, access to these services remain poor and most women continue to give birth at home without the assistance of a skilled person.
The purpose of the study was to identify barriers to accessing EmOC in order to suggest ways of increasing skilled birth attendance in Kenya, a strategy that is known to reduce maternal mortality and morbidity. Relevant literature from abstracts of scholarly journals from major search engines were scanned and analyzed for results.
Significant factors that were identified to cause delay in accessing EmOC are maternal education, financial status, ignorance, delay in decision making by family, preference for Traditional Birth Attendants (TBA), travel cost, means of transport, distance, and impassable roads. Further barriers are poor quality of care due to supplies and equipment shortage, rude, unwelcoming staff, user fees paid on admission and long waiting hours in the facilities.
Based on the findings, various barriers that hinder women from accessing EmOC exist. To increase the number of births assisted by skilled professionals and reduce maternal deaths, these barriers need to be tackled from family, community, and facility levels.
The recommendations include community sensitization and health education on pregnancy related danger signs, strengthening of health care systems to ensure availability of supplies, equipment, and improving referral systems. Integration of TBAs role to health care system will ensure timely referral and increased facility deliveries.
