High temporal resolution rainfall rate estimation from rain gauge measurements
Authors: Song Yang , Han Dawei , Rico-Ramirez Miguel A. 
Published: August 2017

Abstract
Rainfall rates derived from tipping bucket rain gauges generally ignore the detailed variation at a finer temporal scale that particularly occurs in light rainfall events. This study extends the exploration of using artificial neural networks (ANNs), in comparison with the conventional linear interpolation method (LIM) and the cubic spline algorithm (CSA) for rainfall rate estimation at fine temporal resolution using rain gauge data based on a case study at Chilbolton and Sparsholt observatories, UK. A supervised feed-forward neural network integrated with the backpropagation algorithm is used to identify the complex nonlinear relationships between input and target variables. The results indicate that the ANN considerably outperforms the CSA and LIM with higher Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency, lower root mean square error and lower rainfall amount differences when compared to the disdrometer observations when the model is trained within a broad span of input values. Consistent stability in accurately estimating rainfall rate in different sites shows the intrinsic advantage of ANNs in learning and self-adaptive abilities in modelling complex nonlinear relationships between the inputs and target variables.
The importance of surface functional groups in the adsorption of copper onto walnut shell derived activated carbon

Published: August 2017

AbstractIn this study, activated carbon (AC) was prepared from walnut shell using chemical activation. The surface chemistry of the prepared AC was modified by introducing or blocking certain functional groups, and the role of the different functional groups involved in the copper uptake was investigated. The structural and chemical heterogeneity of the produced carbons are characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Boehm titration method and N2/77 K adsorption isotherm analysis. The equilibrium and the kinetics of copper adsorption onto AC were studied. The results demonstrated that the functional groups on AC played an important role in copper uptake. Among various surface functional groups, the oxygen-containing group was found to play a critical role in the copper uptake, and oxidation is the most effective way to improve Cu (II) adsorption onto AC. Ion-exchange was identified to be the dominant mechanism in the copper uptake by AC. Some other types of interactions, like complexation, were also proven to be involved in the adsorption process, while physical force was found to play a small role in the copper uptake. The regeneration of copper-loaded AC and the recovery of copper were also studied to evaluate the reusability of the oxidized AC.
Continuous treatment of Acid Red B with activated sludge bioaugmented by a yeast Candida tropicalis TL-F1 and microbial community dynamics

Abstract
Continuous treatment of Acid Red B (ARB) with activated sludge (AS) bioaugmented by an azo-degrading yeast Candida tropicalis TL-F1 under aerobic conditions was investigated in the form of sequencing batch tests. Dynamics of both bacterial and fungal communities were analyzed using polymerase chain reaction followed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) method. The results showed that bioaugmentation with the yeast TL-F1 improved the performance of AS for continuously decolorizing, degrading and detoxifying ARB. Meanwhile, the AS systems bioaugmented by the yeast TL-F1 showed higher sludge concentration and better AS settleability. The result of PCR-DGGE suggested that microbial communities of both bacteria and fungi shifted due to treatment of ARB and bioaugmentation. Some dominant bacteria and fungi were identified as probably efficient degraders of ARB or its decolorization byproducts. Furthermore, the yeast TL-F1 was found as one of the dominant fungi in all the three bioaugmented systems, suggesting that bioaugmentation was successful due to the colonization of the yeast TL-F1 in AS systems.

Published: August 2017

The southern part of the Special Province of Yogyakarta consists of a coastline spanning over 113 km, under the administrations of Bantul, Gunung Kidul and Kulon Progo regencies, that can become an asset and resource of an important economy. Cabe Merah (red chilli) is one of the commodities that show high numbers of productivity in Kulon Progo Regency. Activities of red chilli farming on the coastal land of this regency have been growing, especially since the establishment of commodity auction market to help farmers sell their harvests. The study was conducted to (1) find out the size of production in red chilli agribusiness on coastal land, (2) to analyze the risk levels of production faced by the farmers, and (3) how to mitigate the production risks on coastal red chilli farming. There were 40 participating farmers from Banaran Village, Galur Sub-district, Kulon Progo Regency. The location was intentionally chosen by using multistage area sampling method. The data used were collected from the production and income of three growing seasons. Data analyses were performed using production risk and The House of Risk methods. Based on the variance coefficient, the production risks level was at 0,03 with the production lower limit of 9.596 Kg/Ha, which showed a low level of risk. The various risk mitigation strategies have been performed by the farmers to lessen the risks that can causes losses in the process of coastal red chilli productions.

Myocardial infarction (MI) continues to be a major cause of mortality and also death at early ages all over the world. This study is undertaken to evaluate the effect of MI on the levels of lipid profile, two enzymatic markers, fasting blood sugar (FBS), urea, creatinine and total serum bilirubin (TSB), rather than to assess the risk factors which lead to MI and its relation to these variables. The sample of the study consisted of (50) patients admitted to the Cardiac Care Unit in Al-Ramadi General hospital. MI patients had significantly (P≤0.05) higher levels of triglyceride (TG) (201.4 mg/dl) as compared with the controls (142.8 mg/dl), while high density lipoprotein (HDL) significantly (P≤0.05) decreased in patients (42.24 mg/dl) compared with control group (58.7mg/dl). Total cholesterol (TC) (183.6 mg/dl) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) (109.3mg/dl) were not affected significantly (P≤0.05) in MI group when compared with control group with the average of (172.2 mg/dl), (116 mg/dl) respectively. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) increased significantly (P≤0.05) in patients (61.38 IU/L) compared to the control group (23.5 IU/L) , while there was no significant (P≤0.05) difference in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) between MI and control group. Levels of fasting blood sugar (FBS) in the serum of MI group (206 mg/dl) increased significantly (P≤0.05) comparing with the control group (122.1 mg/dl). This study showed increase in urea (55.6 mg/dl) and creatinine (1.26 mg/dl) levels in the MI group contrast with the control group which its mean was (29.8 mg/dl), ( 0.85 mg/dl) respectively. There was no difference in the level of TSB. Findings of this study, stating differences in levels of some biochemical parameters can use as a biomarker of myocardial infarction. There is an increase in the incidence of myocardial infarction and some differences in the level of parameters in the presence of one or more major risk factors.

Poor hygiene performance and insufficient sanitary conditions assume real parts in the expanded weight of communicable diseases inside developing nations. Lack of resources such as hand washing materials, water and sanitation facilities may be essential factors why students do not wash their hands, also struggling of affordable toothpaste and absence of awareness regarding oral hygiene may be affected by improper cleaning teeth and tongue. This study was carried out to assess the knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) of personal and oral hygiene among undergraduate university students in Sulaimani city /Iraq and evaluated the degree to which appropriate information of hygiene was related with individual hygiene character. This cross-sectional study was carried out among 1055 undergraduate students who were met via trained staff. Data comprised of cleanliness and hand washing practices, learning about sanitation, individual cleanliness qualities, nearness of gastrointestinal parasitic disease, oral and dental diseases including dental decay and bad breathes. University students with satisfactory information of legitimate personal and oral hygiene probably had clean clothes 68.8% (P value < 0.05), clean hair 72% (0.0001 P value), fingernail trimmed 139% (P value> 0.05), clean teeth 59.4% (P value <0.05), good mouth breath 57% (P value <0.05). Approximately 57.2% of students were delegated having sufficient information of legitimate cleanliness (P value <0.05). Most students preferred hand washing after defecation (96.5%) (P value <0.05), while 93.8% revealed utilizing shampoo. On the other hand 62.7% of contributors reported brushing their teeth before going to sleep (P value <0.05) and 74% of participants revealed cleaning their tongue sometimes (P value< 0.01). this study discovered underscore the requirement for more cleanliness training in universities; and give target confirm that may direct the improvement of far reaching personal, oral hygiene and health mediation programs in Sulaimani universities.

This thesis discusses strategies off the record that describes implicatures modesty in a conversation. Off record strategy is one of the five strategies. This strategy is discussed for the use of the language used in the forms of direct. The object of research is strategies off the record that describes implicatures politeness in a famous talk show in America, namely, "Oprah Winfrey Show". The data were taken using methods refer to refer techniques involved free conversation, where the author was not involved in the dialogue that occurs because the data is taken from the TV show, recording technique with the aid of a recorded tape. Furthermore, the authors use the technique CAAT by way of transcribing talk show back in the form transcription orthographic. This analysis uses methods equivalent pragmatic look at the role of external factors of language, especially the factor of interlocutors on selection strategies used off record. The results showed that the context of the situation and the violations of the maxim of conversation will influence the choice of strategies used off record. However, there are some cases when this option do not follow the rules. This is because of other factors that come into play in a conversation such as an intonation. implicatures appear generally in the form of affirmation that is used in polite. In one sentence found two or more strategy off record selected speakers.

LA DEMOCRACIA DE LAS MINORÍAS: EL RECONOCIMIENTO DEL DERECHO AL CAMBIO DE SEXO DE LAS PERSONAS POR EL TC DEL PERÚ
Authors: León Anibal Quiroga 
Published: August 2017

La democracia representativa supone como premisa esencial la primacía de la voluntad de las mayorías sobre las minorías, ya que es un proceso cuantitativo que tiene una traducción política cualitativa. Pero eso no significa en modo alguno que la mayoría esté autorizada a aplastar o desaparecer a la minoría, ya que eso, pudiendo ser legal, no resulta ni legítimo ni democrático. Es, más bien, antidemocrático. Ahí están las experiencias numéricamente mayoritarias del nazismo, del fascismo o del comunismo que, so pretexto del bien de una mayoría, intentaron desaparecer a las minorías de sus sociedades, con las consecuencias que todos conocemos. Y es que mayoría y minoría forman parte de un todo democrático. La exclusión de cualquiera de ellos (la minoría se impone sobre la mayoría o la mayoría aplasta a la minoría) excluye al resultado de un verdadero valor democrático. Pedro de Vega enseñaba que la verdadera democracia no es aquella donde todo piensen y sientan de igual manera, monocorde; sino aquella sociedad en que el conjunto de gentes puedan pensar y sentir diferentes y sin embargo compartir un espacio y una sociedad de modo igualitario sobre la base de un común denominador y de valores e ideales mínimos de respeto por todos. El TC del Perú (TC) acaba de sentenciar un importante caso, dejando de lado una posición doctrinaria anterior (que no era precedente vinculante) ha determinado que una persona (nacida biológicamente como hombre o mujer) tiene derecho a solicitar al Estado el reconocimiento del cambio de sexo, y que ese nuevo género sea ingresado a su ficha en el RENIEC a fin de que la sociedad, el Estado y el sistema legal le reconozca y de trato con el nuevo género voluntariamente escogido.

This study aims to describe main characters and psychological conflict experienced by the characters in “Korupsi” novel. The method used is qualitative descriptive method. Two issues are: (1) how the character of the character in “Korupsi” novel and (2) what psychological conflict experienced by the main character will be studied by combining a structural approach and psychological literature. The structural approach is used to understand the characterization aspect as one of the novel structures that discusses character and main figure’s character. The psychological literature is employed to understand psychological conflict and psychological problems experienced by the main characters. he results show that the main characters are easily tempted, inconsistent, impatient for having all his needs fulfilled. These characters makes him trapped in corruption case. The bribery money makes him in corruption trap in his office causes inevitable psychological conflicts. The main character decision to get involved in corruption case is inseparable from influence and pressure from family and his friends in his office. The action to neglect principle, integrity, and honesty that have been retained for many years causes him trapped in psychological conflicts. Psychological conflicts experienced by the main characters lead to psychological problem in the main characters, such as guilt, shame, negative hallucinations, nightmares, and desire to suicide.

Reduction in necrotizing enterocolitis and improved outcomes in preterm infants following routine supplementation with Lactobacillus GG in combination with bovine lactoferrin
Authors: Meyer Michael P. , Alexander Tanith 
Published: August 2017

BACKGROUND: Preterm infants remain at high risk of adverse outcomes following necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and late onset sepsis (LOS). Meta-analysis of randomized trials has indicated a reduction in severe NEC following use of probiotics and bovine lactoferrin (LF). Overall, however, uncertainty remains over which probiotic, or combination to use. The aim of this study was to compare the incidence of severe NEC and LOS before and after routine supplementation with Lactobacillus GG (LGG) and LF. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, infants <32 weeks or <1500 g routinely received LGG and 100 mg lactoferrin daily from 2011 –2015 were compared with similar infants born from 2004–2008. Cases of NEC were Bell stage 2 or greater and LOS was blood or spinal fluid culture positive after 48 hrs of age. RESULTS: We noted a marked decline in the incidence of NEC from 3% to 1% with a RR of 0.29 (CI 0.1–0.9) and a number needed to benefit of 50. The cost of preventing one case of NEC was estimated to be NZ $2800, considerably lower than the cost of treatment. LOS rates were not significantly different. There was a decrease in retinopathy treatment rates. During the period there was one case of LGG sepsis in a 23 week gestation infant with abdominal pathology and one infant developed NEC after stopping prophylaxis. CONCLUSION: The rates of severe NEC was markedly reduced following prophylaxis. The case of LGG sepsis indicates caution is required in extremely preterm infants.

OBJECTIVE: We hypothesized that infectious morbidities following percutaneously inserted central venous catheter (PICC) removal would be greater among neonates with central-line associated bloodstream infection (CLBASI). STUDY DESIGN: This retrospective cohort study, included all neonates who required a PICC over a ten-year period. Outcomes assessed following PICC removal included: late bloodstream infection, rule-out sepsis workups, need for a subsequent PICC and antibiotic days and PICC days after PICC removal. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were determined for outcomes. Regression analyses were used to control for confounders. RESULTS: Two-thousand nine hundred and thirteen neonates required at least one PICC during the study period. After adjusting for confounders neonates with CLABSI were 3.4 (95% confidence interval (CI) 2.5, 4.6) and 2.2 (95% CI 1.2, 4.0) times more likely respectively to require a subsequent PICC or develop a late bloodstream infection after PICC removal. Neonates with CLABSI required 1.33 (95% CI 0.77, 1.89) more days of antibiotic treatment and 6.85 (95% CI 5.34, 8.37) more PICC days following PICC removal than neonates without a CLABSI. CONCLUSIONS: Neonates with CLABSI are at risk for additional infectious morbidities after PICC removal. Future intervention studies aimed at reducing CLABSI should evaluate whether morbidities following catheterization are also reduced.
