Authors: Kaari Jennifer 
Published: June 2018

A Review of:
Tenopir, C., Talja, S., Horstmann, W., Late, E., Hughes, D., Pollock, D., … Allard, S. (2017). Research data services in European academic research libraries. LIBER Quarterly, 27(1), 23-44. https://doi.org/10.18352/lq.10180
Abstract
Objective – To investigate the current state of research data services (RDS) in European academic libraries by determining the types of RDS being currently implemented and planned by these institutions.
Design – Email survey.
Setting – European academic research libraries.
Subjects – 333 directors of the Association of European Research Libraries (LIBER) academic member libraries.
Methods – The researchers revised a survey instrument previously used for the DataONE survey of North American research libraries and conducted pilot testing with European academic library directors. The survey instrument was created using the Qualtrics software. The revised survey was distributed by email to LIBER institutions identified as academic libraries by the researchers and remained open for 6 weeks. Question topics included demographics, RDS currently offered, RDS planned, staffing considerations, and the director’s opinions on RDS. Libraries from 22 countries participated and libraries were grouped into 4 regions in order to compare regional differences. Data analysis was conducted using Excel, SPSS or R software University of Tennessee, University of Tampere, and University of Göttingen.
Main Results – 119 library directors responded to more than one question beyond basic demographics, for a response rate of 35.7%. Among the libraries surveyed, more libraries offer consultative services than offered technical support for RDS, although a majority planned to offer technical services in the future. Geographically, libraries in western Europe offer more RDS compared with other regions. More libraries have reassigned or plan to reassign current staff to support RDS services, rather than hire new staff for these roles. Regardless of whether or not they currently offer RDS, library directors surveyed strongly agree that libraries need to offer RDS to remain relevant.
Conclusion – The authors determine that a majority of library directors recognize that data management is increasingly important and many libraries are responding to this by implementing RDS and collaborating across their institutions and beyond to help meet these needs. Future research is suggested to track how these services develop over time, how libraries respond to the staffing challenges of RDS, and whether consultative rather than technical services continue to be primary forms of RDS offered.

Published: June 2018

Abstract
Levenberg-Marquardt (abbr.L-M) method based iterative square root cubature Kalman filter (abbr. ISRCKFLM) inherits the numerical stability of square root Cubature Kalman filter and effectively suppresses the influence of the larger initial estimation error and the nonlinearity of the measurement equation on the state estimation in the nonlinear state estimation due to obtaining the optimal state and variance estimates using the latest measurement through L-M method. We apply the ISRCKFLM algorithm to the state estimation of maneuvering re-entry target tracking, the simulation results demonstrate that the ISRCKFLM algorithm has better accuracy of state estimation, comparable to Unscented Kalman filter and square root Cubature Kalman filter, according to estimation error analysis of the position, velocity, drag coefficient, turn coefficient and climbing force coefficient, and has fast convergence rate.

Abstract
The effective distinction between normal email and spam, so as to maximize the possible of filtering spam has become a research hotspot currently. Naive bayes algorithm is a kind of frequently-used email classification and it is a statistical-based classification algorithm. It assumes that the attributes are independent of each other when given the target value. This hypothesis is apparently impossible in the email classification, so the accuracy of email classification based on naive bayes algorithm is low. In allusion to the problem of poor accuracy of email classification based on naive bayes algorithm, scholars have proposed some new email classification algorithms. The email classification algorithm based on deep neural network is one kind of them. The deep neural network is an artificial neural network with full connection between layer and layer. The algorithm extracted the email feature from the training email samples and constructed a DNN with multiple hidden layers, the DNN classifier was generated by training samples, and finally the testing emails were classified, and they were marked whether they were spam or not. In order to verify the effect of the email classification algorithm based on DNN, in this paper we constructed a DNN with 2 hidden layers. The number of nodes in each hidden layer was 30. When the training set was trained, we set up 2000 batches, and each batch has 3 trained data. We used the famous Spam Base dataset as the data set. The experiment result showed that DNN was higher than naive Bayes in the accuracy of email classification when the proportion of the training set was 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% respectively, and DNN showed a good classification effect. With the development of science and technology, spam manifests in many forms and the damage of it is more serious, this puts forward higher requirements for the accuracy of spam recognition. The focus of next research will be combining various algorithms to further improve the effect of email classification.

Abstract
Digital holography has a wide range of applications in displaying the surface morphology of three-dimensional objects. There have been many studies on the physical methods and implementation methods of digital holography. One of the main problems at present is to design a stable and fast reconfiguration software. This paper analyzes the basic principle of convolution based off-axis digital holographic reconstruction, and presents the process of 3D reconstruction of off-axis digital holography. The 3D reconstruction software of digital holography is designed and developed according to the basic principle and the process of reconstruction, and the parallel operation of 3D reconstruction is realized by OpenMP. Results show that the software can help researchers conveniently realize digital holographic three-dimensional reconstruction. The reconstructed parameters can be adjusted according to the requirements, and the spectra, intensity maps, phase maps and other information required in the reconstruction process can be obtained. The software meets the needs of digital three-dimensional reconstruction.

Published: June 2018

Abstract
A collection of 206 Staphylococcus spp. isolates was investigated for their ability to produce compounds exhibiting antistaphylococcal activity. This group included Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus xylosus strains recovered from bovine mastitis (n = 158) and human skin wounds and soft tissues infections (n = 48). Production of substances with antimicrobial activity was observed in six strains. Five of them were recovered from bovine mastitis, and one was isolated from the infected human skin wound. Three of the six antimicrobials produced by the different strains showed substantial loss of antimicrobial activity upon treatment with proteolytic enzymes, which suggests their peptidic structure. Additional studies have shown that one of the putative bacteriocins was efficiently secreted to the liquid medium, facilitating its large-scale production and isolation. The peptide produced by the M2B strain exhibited promising activity; however, against narrow spectrum of Staphylococcus spp. clinical and animal isolates. Growth inhibition was observed only in the case of 13 (including nine S. aureus, three S. xylosus and one S. epidermidis strains) out of 206 strains tested. Important advantage of the produced agent was its high thermal stability. Fifteen minutes of incubation at 90°C did not affect its antimicrobial potential. The highest efficiency of production of the agent was demonstrated in TSB medium after 24 hours at 37°C. The researches revealed that ability to production of bacteriocin among staphylococci is not very common. Only one (S. xylosus strain assigned as M2B) out of 206 strains tested produced satisfactory amounts of antistaphylococcal bacteriocin. In spite of that, we would encourage other researchers for investigation of their collections of Staphylococcus spp. isolates towards selection strains producing antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
Mastitis in goats is mainly caused by coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CNS). The identification methods for this group are based on evaluating the expression of phenotypic characteristics such as the ability to metabolize various substrates; however, this is disadvantageous as these methods are dependent on gene expression. In recent years, genotyping methods such as the Multiple Locus Variable-Number Tandem Repeat Analysis (MLVA) and gene identification have been useful for epidemiological study of several bacterial species. To develop a genotyping method, the genome sequence of Staphylococcus chromogenes MU970 was analysed. The analysis showed nine virulence genes described in Staphylococcus aureus. The MLVA was developed using four loci identified in the genome of S. chromogenes MU970. This genotyping method was examined in 23 strains of CNS isolated from goat mastitis. The rate of discrimination for MLVA was 0.8893, and the highest rates of discrimination per the index of Simpson and Hunter-Gaston were 0.926 and 0.968 for the locus 346_06, respectively. The virulence genes were present in all strains of S. chromogenes but not in other CNS. The genotyping method presented in this paper is a viable and easy method for typifying CNS isolates from mastitis cases in different regions and is an ideal mean of tracking this disease.
Development of a Shortened Version of the Adolescent Stress Questionnaire (ASQ-S): construct validity and sex invariance in a large sample of Swedish adolescents

Published: June 2018

Abstract
Background: Stressor experience is an important topic of research concerning adolescent health and ill-health. For this, valid and reliable measures of adolescent stress are needed. The Adolescent Stress Questionnaire 2 was developed to tap into stressor domains specific for adolescence. Psychometric evaluations in Australian and European samples have indicated adequate psychometric properties. However, the ASQ-2 is quite extensive, which may render its use in large cohort studies, where several aspects of adolescent health are investigated, inconvenient and problematic.
Objective: To evaluate the psychometric properties of a short version of the ASQ-2 (ASQ-S) in terms of construct validity and factorial invariance across gender.
Method: The ASQ-2 was translated into Swedish and items were retained from nine of the ten scales based on factor loadings. One scale (stress of emerging adult responsibilities) was removed entirely due to low internal consistency and variance explained. The remaining 27 items were piloted and then included in an ongoing 5-year longitudinal study involving the participation of all students in the 7th and 8th grade in public schools from three Swedish municipalities (N = 2768, 47.5 % girls, mean age 13.64 years). For this study data from the first and second wave was used.
Results: A nine factor Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) showed a good fit to the data and invariance across sexes was supported. The nine scales correlated positively with depressive symptoms, anxiety and worry and negatively with self-esteem. Girls reported higher stress levels than boys in eight of the nine scales. Stressors related to peer pressure predicted reported levels of anxiety and worry one year later, whereas stressors related to romantic relationships predicted depressive symptoms.
Conclusions: Overall this study suggests that the ASQ-S could be a valid measure of adolescent stressor experience and psychometrically equivalent to the full ASQ-2.
SEARCHING FOR CAUSES OF NECROTISING ENTEROCOLITIS. AN APPLICATION OF PROPENSITY MATCHING
Authors: Longford Nicholas T. 
Published: June 2018

Abstract
Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) is a disease of the gastrointestinal tract afflicting preterm-born infants in the first few weeks of their lives. We estimate the effect of changing the feeding regimen of infants in their first 14 postnatal days by analysing the data from the UK National Neonatal Research Database. We avoid some problems with drawing causal inferences from observational data by reducing the analysis to the infants who spent the first 14 postnatal days (or longer) in neonatal care and for whom NEC was not suspected in this period. This reduction enables us to use summaries of the feeding regimen in this period as background variables in a potential outcomes framework. Large size of the cohort is a distinct advantage of our study. Its results inform the design of a randomised clinical trial for preventing NEC, and the choice of its active treatment(s) in particular.

OBJECTIVE
To assess the effect of empagliflozin on bone fractures and bone mineral density in patients with type 2 diabetes in pooled placebo-controlled trial data and a head-to-head study versus glimepiride.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Pooled data were analyzed from patients who were randomized 1:1:1 to empagliflozin 10 mg, empagliflozin 25 mg, or placebo in phase I–III clinical trials. Data were also analyzed from the EMPA-REG H2H-SU trial in which patients received empagliflozin 25 mg or glimepiride as an add-on to metformin for 104 weeks with a 104-week extension. Bone fracture adverse events (AEs) were evaluated through a search of investigator-reported (nonadjudicated) events.

RESULTS
In the pooled analysis, bone fracture AEs were reported in 119 of 4,221 (2.8%), 105 of 4,196 (2.5%), and 123 of 4,203 (2.9%) patients in the empagliflozin 10 mg, empagliflozin 25 mg, and placebo groups, respectively (rates of 1.55, 1.36, and 1.69/100 patient-years, respectively). In the EMPA-REG H2H-SU trial, bone fracture AEs were reported in 31 of 765 (4.1%) patients receiving empagliflozin 25 mg and in 33 of 780 (4.2%) patients receiving glimepiride (rates of 1.28 and 1.40/100 patient-years, respectively).

CONCLUSIONS
Empagliflozin did not increase the risk of bone fracture compared with placebo in a pooled analysis of &gt;12,000 patients or compared with glimepiride in a 4-year head-to-head study.

Uma das tarefas próprias da investigação sociológica diz respeito à capacidade de esclarecer o processo histórico a partir do qual, certas convicções se naturalizam. Significa desvendar, por criteriosas fontes e análises sistemáticas, a tecitura da realidade social, naquilo que ela tem de conflitos, arranjos e interesses diversos. Em outras palavras, o trabalho sociológico consiste em “abrir as cortinas” que escondem e mistificam as articulações construídas pelas pessoas, clareando o que se mostra dado, imediato e (pre)concebido da ordem social. Tomar a realidade por objeto científico se refere à tentativa de compreendê-la segundo essas orientações “escondidas”.
