Framework for Mentoring East Asian Women Scientists and Engineers
Authors: Mancl Karen , Lee Katrina 
Published: October 2017

The goal of this preliminary study was to develop a framework for success in mentoring East Asian women scientists and engineers. Six women participated in 2-hour interviews providing an oral history. Common themes from their interviews revealed they brought some shared experiences from Asia. While science and engineering studies were encouraged, especially for girls, they had little mentoring. Upon coming to the US they found themselves isolated as an Asian and female minority, while feeling family and cultural expectations. The findings of the study suggest a 4-part mentoring framework. 1. Mentors should be assigned. 2. At least 1 mentor should be a woman. 3. Mentors needed understanding of and to be able to discuss work/life balance and 4. Mentors need to work with protégés to help them with mission and goal setting. This research supports findings of other studies that describe mentoring teams working with minority faculty and the importance of women mentors in providing psychosocial mentoring functions. This research uncovered the limited role of East Asian mentors. Not all of the women had mentors from East Asia and some did not feel it was important.
Examining Gender Equity in Newspaper Coverage of West-Central Ohio High School Basketball Games

Published: October 2017

Across eight high school basketball seasons between 2000 and 2010, we investigated the coverage of over 300 high school basketball games and compared the quantity of coverage allotted to boys’ and girls’ teams within two west-central Ohio newspapers. Unlike previous investigations on media coverage of high school sports, we restricted our sample to coverage of actual games and did not include feature articles about individual athletes, coaches, or booster clubs, and we determined article length by counting the number of words used in each article. We found that boys’ games received two to three times the length of coverage of girls’ games. Media coverage of girls’ games was also less likely to include a photograph and tended to begin lower on the sports page. We discuss the potential implications of ignoring girls’ high school athletics within community media.
Density Functional Theory Calculations on Nitrated Boroxines as Possible High Energy-Density Materials
Authors: Ina Lisa M. , Ball David W. 
Published: October 2017

Density functional theory calculations were performed on a series of nitroboroxine molecules (cyclo-[BO]3-[NO2]xH3-x, x = 1 – 3) to determine their thermodynamic properties and assess them as potential high energy materials. Minimum-energy geometries of four boroxine molecules were determined, along with their normal modes of vibration. Analysis of the energies of the molecules and their possible decomposition and combustion products suggests an energy contact comparable to that of TNT.

The productive performance of pigs fed with solid-state fermented apple pomace (FAP) and an enzymatic complex (ENZ) was evaluated. Twenty-four Landrace x York (38.9±3.6 kg) pigs fed ad libitum with different diet treatments including FAP and ENZ; T0-0 (0 g kg-1 FAP – 0 g kg-1 ENZ), T0-1 (0 g kg-1 FAP + 1 g kg-1 ENZ), T50-0 (50 g kg-1 FAP + 0 g kg-1 ENZ), T50-1 (50 g kg-1 FAP + 1 g kg-1 ENZ), T100-0 (100 g kg-1 FAP + 0 g kg-1 ENZ) and T100-1 (100 g kg-1 FAP + 1 g kg-1ENZ). Feed intake, F:G ratio, growth characteristics, the return on investment by monetary unit (profitability index, PI) and carcass traits were evaluated. Productivity was not affected by FAP or ENZ (P>0.05) as well as feeding characteristics (P>0.05). Hot dressing percent was affected by ENZ (P=0.0497). T100-0 showed similar value to T0-0. Primary cuts yield was not negatively affected (P>0.05). The best PI was obtained to T50–0 in growing phase. FAP improved PI only in growing phase and ENZ combined with FAP showed variant PI. The results showed that FAP may be considered as an adequate option to feeding pigs maintaining animal productivity.
Tradução e Validação da Escala FOUR para a Pediatria e o seu Uso Como Indicador Prognóstico: Um Estudo Piloto
Authors: Ferreira Sofia Simões , Meireles Daniel , Pinto Alexandra , Abecasis Francisco 
Published: October 2017

Introdução: A escala FOUR - Full Outline of UnResponsiveness, já validada na população adulta, avalia a depressão do estado de consciência. O objetivo deste estudo consiste na tradução para português e validação da escala FOUR na população pediátrica, assim como na comparação da pontuação obtida e da evolução clínica dos doentes entre a escala FOUR e a escala de coma de Glasgow, nos doentes internados numa unidade de cuidados intensivos pediátricos.Material e Métodos: Estudo observacional prospetivo, envolvendo os doentes internados na unidade de cuidados intensivos pediátricos com depressão do estado de consciência, durante um ano. Ambas as escalas foram aplicadas diariamente aos doentes, por três avaliadores (médicos especialistas, médicos internos e enfermeiros), desde a admissão até à alta clínica, e as sequelas neurológicas foram avaliadas através da escala King’s Outcome Scale for Childhood Head Injury - KOSCHI.Resultados: Foram incluídos 27 doentes com idades compreendidas entre um e 17 anos. Ambas as escalas são fiáveis e a concordância inter-avaliador foi superior na escala FOUR. A escala de coma de Glasgow apresentou pontuação mínima em oito avaliações. No entanto, a escala FOUR apresentou o score mínimo em apenas duas dessas avaliações. Em ambas as escalas verificou-se uma forte associação entre o valor obtido à entrada e a evolução clínica do doente (escala FOUR: área sob a curva =0,939; escala de coma de Glasgow: área sob a curva = 0,925).Discussão: A escala FOUR fornece mais informação sobre o estado neurológico dos doentes do que a escala de coma de Glasgow e tem interesse prognóstico.Conclusão: A escala FOUR pode ser aplicada nos doentes internados com depressão do estado de consciência na unidade de cuidados intensivos pediátricos. Consideramos que um estudo multicêntrico seria importante para confirmar estes resultados.

Published: October 2017

Introdução: A idade materna avançada corresponde à maternidade depois dos 35 anos. Está associada a maior número de complicações na gravidez e período neonatal e ainda à diminuição da fertilidade. Propôs-se analisar a relação entre idade materna avançada e suas consequências materno-fetais, assim como a perceção materna dos riscos de uma gravidez depois dos 35 anos.Material e Métodos: Estudo observacional, retrospetivo, descritivo e comparativo entre dois grupos: Grupo idade materna avançada (idade ≥ 35 anos) e Grupo não-idade materna avançada (idade < 35 anos), efetuado entre março e junho de 2015. Utilizado o teste do qui-quadrado e teste exato de Fisher e considerado significativo se p < 0,05.Resultados: Das 736 puérperas internadas (32,2% com idade materna avançada), 306 foram incluídas no estudo (153 em cada grupo). No grupo não-idade materna avançada verificou-se um maior número de primíparas (p < 0,01). No grupo idade materna avançada observou-se um maior número de abortos espontâneos prévios (p < 0,001) e foi superior o recurso a técnicas de reprodução medicamente assistida (p < 0,01), a realização de amniocentese (p < 0,001) e o número de partos distócicos, nomeadamente cesarianas (p < 0,001). Não se encontraram diferenças em relação à presença de patologia materna na gravidez, malformações congénitas, necessidade de reanimação neonatal ou prematuridade. Quanto à perceção do risco numa gravidez em idade materna avançada, o grupo não-idade materna avançada considerou-o superior (p < 0,05).Discussão: A maior parte das mulheres em idade materna avançada tiveram partos de termo e sem complicações. Os resultados neonatais parecem não ter sido influenciados pela idade materna avançada. Conclusão: As consequências de uma gravidez em idade materna avançada na nossa amostra não tiveram a mesma expressão clínica que as descritas na literatura. No futuro, a idade materna avançada será possivelmente considerada após os 40 anos.
Negative βhCG and Molar Pregnancy: The Hook Effect
Authors: Lobo Antunes Isabel , Curado Joana , Quintas Ana , Pereira Alcides 
Published: October 2017

Molar pregnancy, included in gestational trophoblastic disease, is a benign pathology with ability to metastasize, usually occurring with excessively high βhCG levels. Clinical scenario is usually a woman in extremes of reproductive age presenting with amenorrhoea, pain and vaginal blood loss; signs derived from high βhCG levels may be present (hyperthyroidism, hyperemesis). Diagnosis is based on a positive pregnancy test – usually a qualitative urinary test. The limitation of this test results from its inability to become positive in presence of markedly high levels of βhCG, saturating the antigens used – known as the ‘hook effect’. With the widespread use of gynaecological ultrasound cases of molar pregnancy have been diagnosed in timely fashion. We describe a case referred as a degenerating fibroid, with a negative urinary pregnancy test. Transvaginal ultrasound was highly suggestive of molar pregnancy, which was confirmed with a quantitative βhCG test, allowing for timely treatment. The importance of a high index of suspicion for this pathology is tremendous to avoid the devastating consequences of a delayed diagnosis.
Recreational Cannabis Legalization and Opioid-Related Deaths in Colorado, 2000–2015
Authors: Livingston Melvin D. , Barnett Tracey E. , Delcher Chris , Wagenaar Alexander C. 
Published: October 2017

Objectives. To examine the association between Colorado’s legalization of recreational cannabis use and opioid-related deaths. Methods. We used an interrupted time-series design (2000–2015) to compare changes in level and slope of monthly opioid-related deaths before and after Colorado stores began selling recreational cannabis. We also describe the percent change in opioid-related deaths by comparing the unadjusted model-smoothed number of deaths at the end of follow-up with the number of deaths just prior to legalization. Results. Colorado’s legalization of recreational cannabis sales and use resulted in a 0.7 deaths per month (b = −0.68; 95% confidence interval = −1.34, −0.03) reduction in opioid-related deaths. This reduction represents a reversal of the upward trend in opioid-related deaths in Colorado. Conclusions. Legalization of cannabis in Colorado was associated with short-term reductions in opioid-related deaths. As additional data become available, research should replicate these analyses in other states with legal recreational cannabis.
Laboratory Tests and Modeling of Carbon Dioxide Injection in Chalk With Fracture/Matrix–Transport Mechanisms

Summary
The main focus of this paper is to present experimental and simulation results that describe carbon dioxide (CO2) injection in a chalk sample with fracture/matrix interaction at reservoir conditions. On the basis of the experiments, simulation models were built to mimic the main transport phenomena, including diffusion, which was found to be particularly important.
The first experiment consisted of a vertically oriented Sigerslev outcrop chalk core, where a single “fracture” was represented by a centralized hole along the core. Both matrix and fracture were initially saturated with a North Sea stock-tank oil (STO) at reservoir conditions. Once the initial conditions were established, CO2 was injected from the top of the fracture and the oil was produced from the bottom.
Injected CO2 diffused into the oil in the matrix and swelled the oil. Once the oil in the fracture was drained, the matrix fed the fracture with oil at decreasing rates. The first experiment lasted up to approximately 24 pore volumes injected (PVinj). The second experiment is similar, but laboratory oil n-C10 was used instead of STO. Laboratory oil and CO2 have very similar densities at the chosen reservoir conditions, which minimizes gravity-driven convective (Darcy) transport and maximizes the effect of diffusion.
Our modeling was conducted with a compositional reservoir simulator. We developed and used a tuned equation-of-state (EOS) model that accounts for proper estimation of the phase and volumetric properties for CO2 mixtures in the STO and n-C10 systems. Automated history matching was used to fit the experimental data. A commercial reservoir simulator could reproduce laboratory results adequately.
Numerical simulations were conducted to match experimental oil-production data by tuning the oil- and gas-diffusion coefficients. Good agreement between the numerical model and the experimental data was obtained. For the n-C10 system, we found that the results were not sensitive to vertical permeability, confirming displacement was dominated by diffusion rather than convective flux.
Verifying the accuracy of modeling the diffusion-dominated processes in a fractured chalk system with CO2 at reservoir conditions has been accomplished. The lesson learned from the experimental and modeling work flow obtained from this study becomes an important step toward modeling an actual fractured chalk/reservoir-oil system undergoing CO2 injection.
Determining the lengths of dry periods in annual and monthly stream flows using runs analysis at Karasu River, in Turkey

Published: October 2017

AbstractDrought analysis is a vital component of water resources planning and management for dam and hydroelectric power plant (HPP) construction, reservoir operation and flood control. In this study, stochastic models were developed to estimate the monthly and annual flows of the Karasu River in the upper section of the Euphrates River valley. A time series model of flows was established based on the Box–Jenkins methodology. An autoregressive (AR) model was selected as the most suitable model. One hundred synthetic series, having the same length as the historical series (40 years), were produced using the AR model. It was also possible to control whether or not the generated time series maintained the statistical characteristics (mean and standard deviation) of the historical time series. After applying specified threshold levels (q = 0.5; q = 0.3; q = 0.1), the historic and synthetic flow series were subjected to runs analysis. Dry period lengths (run sum and run length) of historic and synthetic flow series were determined. Future droughts are estimated using maximum dry period lengths.
Reducing Social Distress for Chronic Disease Patients in Primary Care: An Intervention for Latino Type 2 Diabetes Patients Seen at Community Health Centers
Authors: Allen Nancy A. , Zagarins Sofija , Welch Garry 
Published: October 2017

Background.Social and behavioral factors have important direct and indirect effects on chronic disease onset and progression. The U.S. health care system is beginning to focus on assessment and management of social and behavioral problems through federal mandates related to meaningful use of electronic health records and improved patient outcomes.Methods.We examined the clinical adoption of a 20-item screening tool to measure social distress focusing on type 2 diabetes. This Internet-based survey tool was embedded within a diabetes team care dashboard used to manage Latino patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes (n = 399) seen at urban safety-net clinics with referral as needed to clinical, community, and social services.Results.Results showed a high baseline prevalence of many of the 20 social distress issues assessed. The control group had a mean 6.8 ± 4.3 items at baseline and 6.2 ± 4.3 items at 6 months; the intervention group had a mean 7.2 ± 4.5 items at baseline and 5.6 ± 4.6 items at 6 months. The majority of participants (&gt;90%) reported having one or more social distress issues during the previous week. Moreover, 11 of 20 social distress items were identified by ≥30% of patients as being present. However, social distress was significantly reduced from our intervention based on a culturally sensitive team model focused on actively managing social distress issues compared to usual diabetes team care (P &lt;0.01).Conclusion.Social distress issues are common but were significantly reduced with a 6-month diabetes team intervention involving initial screening followed by tailored diabetes education and referral to existing local services.
Achievement of Adequate Glycemic Control in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Comorbid Mental Health Conditions Treated in a Primary Care Setting

Published: October 2017

Objective.
This study investigated the association between the presence of a mental health condition (MHC) diagnosis and glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes in a primary care clinic network.

Methods.
This retrospective cross-sectional study compared adequate glycemic control (A1C &lt;8.0%) in patients with type 2 diabetes with and without any MHC, as well as by MHC subtypes of depression or anxiety, bipolar or schizophrenia disorders, and substance use disorder.

Results.
Of 3,025 patients with type 2 diabetes, 721 (24%) had a diagnosis for one or more MHC. The majority (54.9%) were &lt;65 years of age, female (54.9%), and Caucasian (74.5%). Mean A1C was statistically lower in the MHC cohort at 7.14 ± 1.66% compared to 7.38 ± 1.73% in the group without any MHC (P = 0.001). Furthermore, those with an MHC were more likely to attain adequate glycemic control than those without an MHC (odds ratio 1.27, 95% CI 1.01–1.59). Among patients with MHCs, similar rates of adequate glycemic control were seen between those with depression or anxiety and those with other MHCs. However, fewer patients with substance use disorder had adequate glycemic control compared to those without this condition (66.7 vs. 80.10%, P = 0.004).

Conclusion.
Patients with diabetes and MHCs had slightly better glycemic control than those without any MHC. However, the presence of substance use disorder may present more barriers to adequate glycemic control. Additional research is needed to identify barriers unique to each MHC to optimize diabetes management in this population.
Etlik Piliçlerin Kesim Öncesi Bilinçsizleştirilmesinde Kullanılan Farklı Akım ve Dalga Tipindeki Elektrik Değerlerinin Karkas Kusurları ve Göğüs Eti Kalite Özellikleri Üzerine Etkisi

Bu çalışma kesim öncesi etlik piliçleri bilinçsizleştirmek amacıyla uygulanan farklı akım (AC/pDC) ve dalga tipilerini (kare, üçgen ve chirp) içeren elektrikle sersemletmenin karkas kusurları ve göğüs eti kalite özellikleri üzerindeki etkilerini belirlemek amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada ticari olarak benzer çevre koşullarında yetiştirilen ortalama 2350 g ağırlığında aynı sürüden temin edilmiş 39 günlük yaşta (Ross 308) etlik piliçler kullanılmıştır. Her birinde 10 piliç (5â™€:5â™‚) bulunan altı deneme grubu oluşturulmuştur. Toplam 60 piliç, su banyosunda 5 sn süreyle 200 Hz frekans ve 120 mA/piliç değerlerinde AC ve pDC elektrik akımıyla sersemletilmiştir. Kesimden sonra piliçlerdeki kan kaybı miktarı, karkaslardaki damar kanamaları, spot lekeler ve kanat kemik kırıkları tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, göğüs etinin pH ve renk değerleri ve su kaybı incelenmiştir.
Elektrik akımı uygulaması piliçlerde herhangi önemli bir karkas kusuruna neden olmamıştır. Üçgen ve chirp dalga tiplerinin, kare dalgaya göre piliçlerde daha fazla kan kaybına yol açtığı belirlenmiştir. AC akım uygulanan piliçlerin göğüs etinde pH15 değeri daha yüksek bulunurken, göğüs etindeki en düşük su kaybı chirp dalga tipinde meydana gelmiştir. Su banyolarında üçgen ve kare dalganın, bireysel uygulamalarda ise chirp dalga tipinin incelenen özellikler üzerinde daha fazla olumlu etkilerinin olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Cet article propose d’étudier les logiques qui président au fonctionnement économique, technique et éditorial des services de modération de contenu à travers une recherche originale combinant deux volets : une enquête par entretiens et observation menée entre février et mars 2016 auprès d’un des trois principaux fournisseurs de services de modération aux médias français et une analyse semi-automatisée et comparative d’un échantillon de messages publiés et non publiés par trois sites d’information, portant sur les attentats de novembre 2015 à Paris. Notre travail confronte ainsi la pratique de la modération, encastrée dans un cadre socioéconomique plus large et travaillée par un faisceau de contraintes de natures juridique, technique et industrielle, à la qualité et au pluralisme d’informations qu’elle produit et met à disposition de l’espace public numérique.
L’entreprise de presse et son audience en ligne
Authors: Malcorps Sylvain 
Published: October 2017

Depuis la fin des années 1990, les journalistes web des entreprises de presse ont progressivement intégré les web metrics dans le cadre de leurs missions quotidiennes. Cet article revient sur les mécanismes qui ont conduit depuis 1996 les journalistes de la rédaction en ligne du quotidien belge L’Écho à s’emparer de ces nombres, en observant comment les modèles de revenus privilégiés par l’entreprise pour ses activités en ligne ont pu avoir une influence sur ce processus. En mettant d’abord au jour les modes de négociation des acteurs impliqués dans le processus de « configuration de l’audience », cette étude de cas montre que le passage d’un modèle de revenus basé sur la publicité vers un modèle centré sur l’abonnement va conduire les journalistes web à s’approprier différemment les métriques et à modifier la nature des contenus publiés sur le site.

Résumé L'article vise à documenter empiriquement quelles étaient les caractéristiques sociales des présents à Nuit Debout place de la République, en s'appuyant sur une enquête collective par questionnaires passés in situ au printemps 2016 place de la République à Paris. Bien qu'issus des classes supérieures de la société française, une bonne partie des présents sont des « créatifs culturels » travaillant dans des secteurs d'emploi en crise. La relative concentration, mais aussi limitation, de ces milieux de recrutement en Ïle-de-France constitue une des explications du caractère à la fois soudain et circonscrit dans le temps de Nuit Debout. Ces caractéristiques aident aussi à comprendre que cette mobilisation ait pris la forme nouvelle d'une conviviale et sociable occupation de la place de la République.
