Metabolic Syndrome Risks Following the Great Recession in Rural Black Young Adults
Authors: Miller Gregory E. , Chen Edith , Yu Tianyi , Brody Gene H. 
Published: September 2017

Background
Some of the country's highest rates of morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease are found in lower‐income black communities in the rural Southeast. Research suggests these disparities originate in the early decades of life, and partly reflect the influence of broader socioeconomic forces acting on behavioral and biological processes that accelerate cardiovascular disease progression. However, this hypothesis has not been tested explicitly. Here, we examine metabolic syndrome (MetS) in rural black young adults as a function of their family's economic conditions before and after the Great Recession.

Methods and Results
In an ongoing prospective study, we followed 328 black youth from rural Georgia, who were 16 to 17 years old when the Great Recession began. When youth were 25, we assessed MetS prevalence using the International Diabetes Federation's guidelines. The sample's overall MetS prevalence was 18.6%, but rates varied depending on family economic trajectory from before to after the Great Recession. MetS prevalence was lowest (10.4%) among youth whose families maintained stable low‐income conditions across the Recession. It was intermediate (21.8%) among downwardly mobile youth (ie, those whose families were lower income before the Recession, but slipped into poverty). The highest MetS rates (27.5%) were among youth whose families began the Recession in poverty, and sank into more meager conditions afterwards. The same patterns were observed with 3 alternative MetS definitions.

Conclusions
These patterns suggest that broader economic forces shape cardiometabolic risk in young blacks, and may exacerbate disparities already present in this community.
The clinical effectiveness of haemoglobin spray as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of chronic wounds
Authors: Hunt S. , Elg F. 
Published: September 2017

Objective: To investigate wound healing after application of adjunctive topical haemoglobin spray in patients with chronic wounds. Method: Consecutive patients with a diversity of chronic wounds (defined as <40% reduction in wound size within 4 weeks) were treated with standard wound care plus haemoglobin spray and evaluated over a 26-week period. Results were compared with a retrospective cohort of 50 consecutive patients treated with standard wound care alone. Results: We evaluated 50 patients for a 26-week evaluation period, during which 45/50 patients (90%) treated with haemoglobin spray were completely healed compared with 19/50 retrospective control patients (38%) (p<0.001). Mean time to complete wound healing was 6.6 weeks (range: 3–22) in the haemoglobin spray group compared with 11.4 weeks (range: 3–25) in the control group (p=0.01). Cox proportional hazards analysis model adjusting for baseline wound size and months wound present also yielded significant treatment effects. Exudate, slough and pain levels were all reduced to a greater extent versus control group. Conclusion: Haemoglobin spray resulted in a higher number of healed wounds and a faster rate of healing, as well as a positive impact on other wound parameters. These results are in accordance with other published data and supports the adjunctive use of haemoglobin spray in patients with a wide variety of chronic wounds of all sizes and origins.

Property, the forging of Francoism and collective memory
Authors: Blanco Miguel Ángel del Arco , Anderson Peter 
Published: September 2017

Abstract
The mass confiscation of property by Francoists during and after the Spanish Civil War of 1936–39 stands out as one of the most testing issues in Spain’s tortuous recent past. This article explains popular participation in the seizuraes. It also seeks to overcome the divorce in the historiography between Francoist and Republican confiscations and between the history of the seizures and their collective memory. It further shows that historians struggle to bring the seizure into the public sphere because of obstacles created in particular by the reluctance of those controlling the Spanish state to confront this dark past.

Published: September 2017

Fertility experiences stagnation during the last 10 years (2.6 children) and it did not reach the target of national medium-term development plan 2015 for 2.1 children. Meanwhile, the use of contraception increased less than one percent, and mortality rate of children under five years old only slightly declined. This might be because Population and Family Planning Program is not a priority. This paper aims to analyze direct and/or indirect factors that significantly cotribute to children born alive based on IDHS 2012. The IDHS 2012 data collect 45.607 women aged 15-49 years as sample units. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics for univariate, bivariate (chi-square), and multivariate (multiple linear regression). Twenty-four variables have a significant relationship to the children born alive, eleven of the variables have strong effect to the children born alive. By taking into account control variables, the eleven variables contribute 66 per cent to children born alive. Child mortality is the most dominant variable that contributes to a children born alive This is in line with the theory of Alberto that said child mortality trigger to have more children. The results also explain that stagnation of fertility can not be separated from slow rate of mortality. Recommendations that developed by this analysis include the strengthening of communication, education, information, especially delayed age at first marriage, age at first birth and age at first sexual intercourse for young women, the lowest wealth quintile, low education through The Information Center of Adolescent Reproductive Health Councelling; b). Partnership with the Ministry of Health, especially strengthening education and information communication and quality of services mother and child care program concerning the high contribution of child mortality to the children ever born.

Implementation of Region-Based Covariance Localization Ensemble Kalman Filter in History Matching Workflow
Authors: Ambia Fajril , Ariadji Tutuka , Syihab Zuher , Gunawan Agus Y. 
Published: September 2017

Background:History matching is an indispensable phase in the workflow of reservoir analysis. Nevertheless, there is a considerable challenge in performing the procedure in a proper scientific manner due to the inherent nature of non-unique solutions from the many-unknown variables with limited known equations.Objective:In this study, we introduce the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) method complemented by the Region-Based Covariance Localization (RCL) scheme to address the aforementioned issue.Method:The algorithms work initially by modifying the covariance localization generated by Gaussian correlation model using region information such as facies or flow unit, in which the area within a region is spatially correlated. Subsequently, the correlation between distant areas in the region is eliminated, hence promoting better modification of the distribution of the parameters while maintaining the characteristics of the predefined geological model of the reservoir.Result:Result shows that RCL scheme is capable of enhancing the performance of EnKF procedure and produce parameter distributions that is close to the true model of the reservoir.Conclusion:Implementation of the proposed methodology ameliorates the accuracy and reliability of the history matching process, thus establishing better consideration in predicting reservoir performance.
The Importance of Accounting Information Systems in the Accounting Curricula: A CPA Perspective
Authors: Kearns Grover S. 
Published: September 2017

ABSTRACT
Research regarding accounting program curricula design has been extensive. While attention has been given to generic skills, the relative importance of specific functional skills has been lacking. The importance of accounting information systems (AIS) knowledge and skills has been assumed but rarely tested although it is an integral part of most accounting programs. Little attention has been given to the comparative value of AIS topics within the overall accounting curricula. In this study, 56 CPAs were surveyed to elicit opinions about the importance of individual accounting skills and determine the importance of AIS to the program. Responses support the value of AIS skills to practitioners and compare well to generic and other functional skill sets. Accounting educators will benefit from this research by gaining a new perspective on the importance of AIS within the overall accounting program and external stakeholders ranking of skills.
The Jiang–Su Absorption for Inclusions of Unital C*-algebras
Authors: Osaka Hiroyuki , Teruya Tamotsu 
Published: September 2017

AbstractWe introduce the tracial Rokhlin property for a conditional expectation for an inclusion of unital C*-algebras P ⊂ A with index finite, and show that an action α from a finite group G on a simple unital C*- algebra A has the tracial Rokhlin property in the sense of N. C. Phillips if and only if the canonical conditional expectation E: A → AG has the tracial Rokhlin property. Let be a class of infinite dimensional stably finite separable unital C*-algebras that is closed under the following
conditions:(1) If A ∊ and B ≅ A, then B ∊ .(2) If A ∊ and n ∊ ℕ, then Mn(A) ∊ .(3) If A ∊ and p ∊ A is a nonzero projection, then pAp ∊ .Suppose that any C*-algebra in is weakly semiprojective. We prove that if A is a local tracial -algebra in the sense of Fan and Fang and a conditional expectation E: A → P is of index-finite type with the tracial Rokhlin property, then P is a unital local tracial -algebra.The main result is that if A is simple, separable, unital nuclear, Jiang–Su absorbing and E: A → P has the tracial Rokhlin property, then P is Jiang–Su absorbing. As an application, when an action α from a finite group G on a simple unital C*-algebra A has the tracial Rokhlin property, then for any subgroup H of G the fixed point algebra AH and the crossed product algebra H is Jiang–Su absorbing. We also show that the strict comparison property for a Cuntz semigroup W(A) is hereditary to W(P) if A is simple, separable, exact, unital, and E: A → P has the tracial Rokhlin property.
Hybrid Variational Model for Texture Image Restoration
Authors: Ma Liyan , Zeng Tieyong , Li Gongyan 
Published: September 2017

AbstractThe hybrid variational model for restoration of texture images corrupted by blur and Gaussian noise we consider combines total variation regularisation and a fractional-order regularisation, and is solved by an alternating minimisation direction algorithm. Numerical experiments demonstrate the advantage of this model over the adaptive fractional-order variational model in image quality and computational time.

Published: September 2017

AbstractThe semilocal convergence of a third-order Newton-like method for solving nonlinear equations is considered. Under a weak condition (the so-calledγ-condition) on the derivative of the nonlinear operator, we establish a new semilocal convergence theorem for the Newton-like method and also provide an error estimate. Some numerical examples show the applicability and efficiency of our result, in comparison to other semilocal convergence theorems.
Optometric low vision rehabilitation practice in Norway - public health care
Authors: Helland Bodil , Sundling Vibeke 
Published: September 2017

The purpose was to describe the patient characteristics, the prescribing trends and habits among the public health care optometrists who perform low vision rehabilitation in Norway. Data were collected using a questionnaire to gather background details of the optometrist, and a practice registration form to register patient characteristics and information about the low vision device(s) prescribed. Both forms were distributed to 44 public health care optometrists. A total of 30 questionnaires and 20 practice registration forms were returned. This included data for 147 patients with visual impairment. Moderate to severe visual impairment according to The World Health Organization (WHO)â€™s definition (visual acuity â‰¤ 6/18) was present in 82 (59%) of the patients. Three out of four (75%) patients did not have sufficient vision for reading. Distance visual acuity was improved with best optical correction in 39 (28%) of the patients compared to the presenting visual acuity. The most frequently prescribed optical devices for near and distance vision were hand magnifiers and filters/tinted lenses respectively. Optometrists play an important role in vision rehabilitation of older people attending the low vision services.Â A number of the patients seen in low vision services are referred from non-eye care professionals and achieve improved vision with appropriate optical correction. Others are only mildly visually impaired with adequate optical correction alone. This indicates a potential to use general optometric practice as the first step for vision rehabilitation, as a number of people are only mildly visually impaired with adequate optical correction.

Published: September 2017

AbstractInspired by biohybrid molecules that are synthesized in Nature through post‐translational modification (PTM), we have exploited a eukaryotic PTM to recombinantly synthesize lipid–polypeptide hybrid materials. By co‐expressing yeast N‐myristoyltransferase with an elastin‐like polypeptide (ELP) fused to a short recognition sequence in E. coli, we show robust and high‐yield modification of the ELP with myristic acid. The ELP's reversible phase behavior is retained upon myristoylation and can be tuned to span a 30–60 °C. Myristoylated ELPs provide a versatile platform for genetically pre‐programming self‐assembly into micelles of varied size and shape. Their lipid cores can be loaded with hydrophobic small molecules by passive diffusion. Encapsulated doxorubicin and paclitaxel exhibit cytotoxic effects on 4T1 and PC3‐luc cells, respectively, with potencies similar to chemically conjugated counterparts, and longer plasma circulation than free drug upon intravenous injection in mice.

Published: September 2017

AbstractA dual‐function material in which ferroelectricity and spin crossover coexist in the same temperature range has been obtained. Our synthetic strategy allows the construction of acentric crystal structures in a predictable way and is based on the high directionality of hydrogen bonds. The well‐known iron(II) spin crossover complex [Fe(bpp)2]2+ (bpp=2,6‐bis(pyrazol‐3‐yl)pyridine), a four‐fold noncentrosymmetric H‐bond donor, was combined with a disymmetric H‐bond acceptor such as the isonicotinate (isonic) anion to afford [Fe(bpp)2](isonic)2⋅2 H2O. This low‐spin iron(II) compound crystallizes in the acentric nonpolar I
space group and shows piezoelectricity and SHG properties. Upon dehydration, it undergoes a single‐crystal to single‐crystal structural rearrangement to a monoclinic polar Pc phase that is ferroelectric and exhibits spin crossover.
The central importance of ecological spatial connectivity to effective coastal marine protected areas and to meeting the challenges of climate change in the marine environment

Abstract

The several forms of ecological spatial connectivity – population, genetic, community, ecosystem – are among the most important ecological processes in determining the distribution, persistence and productivity of coastal marine populations and ecosystems.
Ecological marine protected areas (MPAs) focus on restoring or maintaining marine populations, communities, or ecosystems. All ecological MPAs – no matter their specific focus or objectives – depend for their success on incorporating ecological spatial connectivity into their design, use (i.e. application), and management.
Though important, a synthesis of the implications of ecological spatial connectivity for the design, use, and management of MPAs, especially in the face of a changing global climate, does not exist. We synthesize this information and distill it into practical principles for design, use, and management of MPAs and networks of MPAs.
High population connectivity among distant coastal ecosystems underscores the critical value of MPA networks for MPAs and the populations and ecosystems between them.
High ecosystem connectivity among coastal ecosystems underscores the importance of protecting multiple connected ecosystems within an MPA, maximizing ecosystem connectivity across MPAs, and managing ecosystems outside MPAs so as to minimize influxes of detrimental organisms and materials into MPAs.
Connectivity‐informed MPAs and MPA networks – designed and managed to foster the ecological spatial connectivity processes important to local populations, species, communities, and ecosystems – can best address ecological changes induced by climate change. Also, the protections afforded by MPAs from direct, local human impacts may ameliorate climate change impacts in coastal ecosystems inside MPAs and, indirectly, in ecosystems outside MPAs.

Abstract

To meet the Convention on Biological Diversity's Aichi Target 11 on marine biodiversity protection and Aichi Target 6 on sustainable fisheries by 2020, as well as the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2 on food security and SDG 14 on oceans by 2030, there is an urgent need to rethink how best to reconcile nature conservation and sustainable development.
This paper argues for effective governance to support processes that apply principles of sustainable development and an ecosystem approach to decide about economic activities at sea such as aquaculture. It describes opportunities, benefits and synergies between aquaculture and MPAs as a basis for wider debate. The scope is not a comprehensive analysis of aquaculture and MPAs, but rather to present examples of positive interactions between aquaculture activities and MPAs. The unintended negative consequences are also discussed to present balanced arguments.
This work draws from four workshops held in 2015 and 2016 and used to collect information from about 100 experts representing various sectors and perspectives.
It is recognized that aquaculture is an important activity in terms of sustainable development. It can play a role in providing food security, poverty alleviation and economic resilience, in particular for MPA local communities, and contribute to wild stock enhancement, as an alternative to overfishing and for providing services to the ecosystem.
This study showed that there is a need from both aquaculture and MPA sides for clarity of objectives and willingness for open and extensive dialogue. The paper concludes by describing a number of tools and methods for supporting greater synergies between aquaculture and MPAs.
The results from this work have already helped to build a common understanding between conservation and aquaculture and initiate a rapprochement for increasing synergies.

Published: September 2017

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to evaluate auditory feedback for dance students on a competition team in which one peer provided auditory feedback to another peer for a selected dance movement. Some peers switched roles during the study, and increases in their performances were evaluated both as the receiver and deliverer of auditory feedback. All participants demonstrated increases in their respective target behaviors when they received auditory feedback. Several participants also displayed increases in their movements when they provided auditory feedback to their peer partner, although these increases were not as substantial as those who received feedback.
