description: Introduction: Healthy Homes and Neighbourhoods (HHAN), an integrated care programme in the Sydney Local Health District (SLHD), seeks to address the needs of disadvantaged families through care coordination, as one of its components. This research aims to determine for whom, when and why the care coordination component of HHAN works, and establish the reported outcomes for clients, service-providers and partner organisations.
Methods: Critical realist methodology was utilised to undertake a qualitative evaluation of the impact of care coordination. Purposive sampling was used to select a total of 37 participants for interview, including consumers, service-providers and key stakeholders. Thematic analysis was undertaken to derive the major modes of intervention of HHAN, and data representing these elements was coded and summarised under contexts, mechanisms and outcomes.
Results: Analysis indicates that care coordination has a positive impact on clients’ sense of independence, self-awareness and outlook on life. Trust and favourable interpersonal relations were identified as major underlying mechanisms for a successful client-provider working relationship. The identified modes of intervention facilitating positive consumer outcomes included accessibility, flexibility and service navigation. Persistent siloes in health and systemic resistance to collaboration was seen to hinder effective care delivery.
Conclusions: This study suggests that a care coordination model may be effective in engaging disadvantaged families in healthcare, assist them in navigating the health system and can lead to beneficial health and social outcomes. Successful implementation of care coordination requires flexible programme design and experienced and skilful clinicians to fulfil the care coordinator role. There is a need to appreciate the negative impact that the complex and siloed health system can have on disadvantaged families.

description: Исследовано влияние концентрации примеси в подложке и типа легирующей примеси поликремниевого затвора на пороговое напряжение кремниевых ДМОП-транзисторов с индуцированным n-каналом. Показано, что увеличение средней концентрации примеси в подложке на 50% позволило повысить пороговое напряжение транзистора более чем на 30%. Однако при этом наблюдался рост сопротивления канала транзистора, что повлекло за собой уменьшение тока стока примерно на 25%. Установлено влияние типа проводимости поликремниевого затвора на величину порогового напряжения транзистора. Показано, что замена фосфора на бор при легировании поликремниевого затвора позволяет увеличить пороговое напряжение примерно на 25%. При этом ток стока транзисторов не изменялся, что может представлять практический интерес при разработке помехозащищенных ключей на полевых транзисторах.
Genital and subjective sexual arousal in women : effects of menopause, sympathetic nervous system activation, and arousal disorder
Creators: name: Brotto, Lori Anne

Year: 2009

description: Despite three decades of psychophysiological research on female sexual arousal, inconsistencies in the literature with respect to the influence of age, menopause, sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activation, and sexual dysfunction leave clinicians and researchers with an incomplete picture of the female sexual response. The present investigation was aimed at increasing our understanding of female sexual arousal by exploring (1) the effects of age and menopause; (2) the effects of SNS activation on premenopausal, postmenopausal, and women with female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD); (3) the diagnostic utility of the vaginal photoplethysmograph (VPP); and (4) the relationship between laboratory-based and at-home sexual arousal. Experiment 1 found no significant differences in genital or subjective sexual arousal between 25 premenopausal, 25 postmenopausal, and 21 perimenopausal women agematched to the postmenopausal group. SNS activation significantly increased genital sexual arousal in young women, but had no effect on subjective measures. In Experiments 2 and 3, genital and subjective sexual arousal were compared in 30 control and 31 women with FSAD. Three subtypes of FSAD emerged: "genital arousal disorder" characterized women with impaired genital arousal, "anhedonic arousal disorder" characterized women with impaired subjective sexual arousal, and "missed arousal disorder" characterized women who complained of both types of impairment, but who displayed normal VPP patterns. SNS activation significantly impaired genital arousal in women with anhedonic arousal disorder, near significantly increased it in women with genital arousal disorder, and had no effect in women with missed arousal disorder. No subjective measure was significantly affected. Experiment 4 examined the relationship between laboratory-based and at-home sexual arousal in control and FSAD groups. Using a detailed interview to assess at-home sexual arousal, these indices were found not to correlate with genital arousal assessed in the laboratory. Taken together, these results suggest that the genital arousal response is robust to the effects of age and menopause, but is significantly affected by SNS activation depending on diagnostic status. There is support for putative subtypes of FSAD, and future clinical trials should investigate the efficacy of SNS activating techniques across such subtypes. Finally, female sexual arousal is a complex response involving unique contributions of subjective and genital arousal. Optimal assessment of sexual arousal in women would benefit from combining psychophysiological and self-report assessment techniques.
On Dirac Quantisation rules and the trace anomaly

description: In this article I shall clarify various aspects of the Dirac quantisation rules of 1930\cite{Dirac}, namely (i) the choice of antisymmetric Poisson brackets, (ii) the first quantisation Rule 1 (iii) the second quantisation Rule 2, and their relations to the trace anomaly. In fact in 1925 Dirac already had a preliminarily formulation of these rules \cite{Dirac3}. Using them, he had independently rediscovered the Born-Jordan quantisation rule \cite{BornJordan1925} and called it the quantum condition. This is the best known and undoubtedly most significant of the canonical quantisation rules of quantum mechanics. We shall discuss several violations of the Poisson-Lie algebra (assumed by Dirac), starting from antisymmetry, which is the first criterion for defining a Lie algebra. Similar violations also occur for the Leibniz's rule and the Jacobi identity, the latter we shall also prove for all our quantum Poisson brackets. That none of these violations jeopardised Dirac's ingenious original derivation \cite{Dirac} of his first quantisation Rule 1, is quite remarkable. This is because the violations are all of higher orders in $\hbar$. We shall further show that (ii) does not automatically lead to a trace anomaly for certain bounded integrable operators. Several issues that are both pedagogical and foundational arising from this study show that quantum mechanics is still not a finished product. I shall briefly mention some attempts and options to complete its development.

description: Agriculturally, South Dakota is a unique state possessing the highest rate of adoption for genetically modified crop varieties. In 2009 ninety-six percent of corn acres planted in South Dakota were genetically modified compared with eighty-five percent nationally (Economic Research Service). Additionally, South Dakota has seen a dramatic increase in the number of acres treated with insecticide over the past 20 years. These two situations taken together seem to be counterintuitive. Some genetically modified varieties, such as Bt corn, are equipped with genetic defenses so that they can protect the plant from target pests. Intuitively, one would expect to see a decrease in insecticide use as adoption of genetically modified varieties increase. Recent studies have found that there is a reduction in herbicides applied to herbicide tolerant varieties. Here in South Dakota, though, producers have expressed the opinion that the increase in insecticide use is the result of the emergence and spread of the soybean aphid in the state. This research seeks to address the underlying causes of the increase in insecticide use.

Data from the EPIC/p-n camera, the Reflection Gratings Spectrometers (RGS) and the Optical Monitor (OM) have been analyzed. The p-n spectrum is well fitted by a power law, a spectrally unresolved Fe Kalpha line, a Compton reflection component (whose large value, when compared to the iron line equivalent width, suggests iron underabundance), and absorption by warm material. Absorption lines are apparent in the RGS spectra, but their identification is uncertain and would require large matter velocities. The UV fluxes measured by the OM are well above the extrapolation of the X-ray spectrum, indicating the presence of a UV bump.

description: BackgroundHealthy Homes and Neighbourhoods (HHAN) Integrated Care Initiative was established to improve the care of families with complex health and social needs who reside in Sydney Local Health District. HHAN seeks to provide long-term multi-disciplinary care coordination as well as enhance capacity building and promote integrated care. The critical realist study reported here is part of the longitudinal development and evaluation of complex integrated health and social care interventions in Sydney, Australia.MethodsWe describe the qualitative component of a critical realist pilot case study aimed at exploring, explaining and refining emerging HHAN programme theories in relation to care coordination. Qualitative interviews were undertaken with HHAN clients (n = 12), staff and other stakeholders (n = 21). Interviews and coding used a context (C), mechanism (M) and outcome (O) framework. Inductive, deductive, retroductive and abductive modes of reasoning were used with the CMO heuristic tool to inform the developing programme theory.ResultsThe mechanisms underpinning effective engagement of clients by care coordinators included: building trust, leveraging other family, social and organisational relationships, meeting clients on their own terms, demonstrating staff effectiveness as quickly as possible, and client empowerment. Mechanisms for enhancing care integration included knowledge transfer activities and shared learning among collaborators, structural and cultural changes, enhancing mutual respect, co-location of multidisciplinary and/or interagency staff and cultivating faith in positive change among staff.ConclusionsUse of a critical realism case study approach served to elucidate the varied influences of contexts and mechanisms on programme outcomes, to highlight what works for whom and in what context. Findings supported the initial programme theory that engagement and trust building with clients, alongside enhanced collaboration and integration of services, improved outcomes for vulnerable families with complex needs. Further research is needed to explore the cost-effectiveness of integrated care initiatives, in view of the long term nature of service provision and the risk of staff burnout.

description: The objective of this paper is to assess the potential demand for a new value-added cowpea product – cowpea flour for purchase by women street food vendors. We use a non-hypothetical real purchase decision mechanism that involves real purchase exchanges of 1 kg packages of cowpea flour in a real market environment in Niamey, Niger. Completed market transactions were bounded between an upper and lower limit price. Our results indicate that kossai vendors’ willingness-to-pay (WTP) for 1kg of cowpea flour exceeds the costs of production including a retail margin. Differences in WTP averages for different groups of vendors (economic status, vendor processor type and scale of production) were found to be statistically significant. Potential exists for profitable entrepreneurial activity in the cowpea flour business targeting women street vendors from more affluent neighborhoods; those using the wet milling process and those who are medium and large scale vendors.

description: It is known that the shortest non-simple closed geodesic on an orientable hyperbolic 2-orbifold passes through an orbifold point of the orbifold. This raises questions about minimal length non-simple closed geodesics disjoint from the orbifold points. Here we explore once self-intersecting closed geodesics disjoint from the orbifold points of the orbifold, called figure eight geodesics. Using fundamental domains and basic hyperbolic trigonometry we identify and classify all figure eight geodesics on triangle group orbifolds. This classification allows us to find the shortest figure eight geodesic on a triangle group orbifold, namely the unique one on the (3,3,4)-triangle group orbifold. We then show that this same curve is the shortest figure eight geodesic on a hyperbolic 2-orbifold without orbifold points of order two.

description: Growing variety and complexity of systems determines the important rule of the simulation, because specification possibilities of classical analytical methods are quite limited. The designing of heterogeneous simulation models is still difficult. One of the reasons is lack of suitable techniques for communications and synchronization of the various models inside the joint systems model. Some different methods and technologies (HLA etc.) exist. The author’s discusses the CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) solution use for integration of the different separate models operating inside the goal model of the heterogeneous system.

description: During my investigations, I highlighted three innovations, all of which serve the production of a final product, sheep kefir. This product contains a unique added value and involves several innovational opportunities. I examined the complex economic analysis of the innovations and technological elements investigated with respect to revenues from the sale of sheep milk, sheep cheese (kashkaval) and sheep kefir. The kashkaval-type sheep cheese does not contain sufficient added value to cover the costs of innovational investments. Investigating the innovational activity for developing sheep kefir and for its market introduction, its cash flow balance becomes positive already in the second year after realization, and is able to generate significant profit.

description: This survey assesses the effects of Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 and 1830/2003 on the food industry in Germany. According to this study 89.5 % of the food producers in Germany are affected of Regulations (EC) 1829/2003 and 1830/2003 and no food producer in Germany processes GMOs which would require labelling. Furthermore, the food industry in Germany developed quality management systems to exclude GMOs from production which would require labelling. The most used measure which 82.4 % of the food producer mentioned to comply legal requirements and to prevent GMOs in production processes is the demand of a written affirmation of GM-free status from suppliers. The second most used measure, which 77.1 % of the food producer mentioned, are enquiries back to supplier about GM-status of raw materials. Arising costs of Regulations (EC) No 1829/2003 and 1830/2003 mainly result from higher costs of GMO free raw materials (mentioned by 13.7 % of the food producers), costs for analytical testing of GMO contents in raw materials (mentioned by 27.7 % of the food producers) and additional personal costs (mentioned by 33.0 % of the food producers).

description: Objective To investigate Australian medical student burn-out during rural clinical placement. Second, to examine the association between perceived burn-out and rural career intent at the time of finishing their rural placement.Design, settings and participants The 2016 Federation of Rural Australian Medical Educators evaluation survey is a cross-sectional study of medical students from 17 Australian universities. Specifically, those medical students who completed a full academic year or more at a Rural Clinical School (RCS). Responses from 638 medical students from regional Australia were analysed in the study of all eligible 756 medical students (response rate 84.3%).Primary and secondary outcome measures The primary objective was to determine self-reported burn-out (emotional exhaustion) in rural placements for medical students. Secondary outcome measures were designed to explore interactions with rural practice self-efficacy and rural intentions. Logistic regression models explored factors associated with burn-out.Results 26.5% of students reported experiencing burn-out during a rural placement. Factors associated with burn-out were female gender, rural origin, low preference for RCS, stress in the year prior to a rural clinical placement, perceived social isolation during rural placement and lower rural practice self-efficacy. Burn-out was not associated with rural career intentions. Social isolation and low rural self-efficacy were independently associated with burn-out during rural placement and together explained 10% of variance in burn-out (Model Nagelkerke R2=0.23).Conclusion Burn-out during rural placement may be a consequence of stress prior to a medical school placement. Social isolation and rural self-efficacy are amendable factors to mitigate medical student burn-out during rural placements.

description: We investigate the transport through a quantum ring, a dot and a barrier embedded in a nanowire in a homogeneous perpendicular magnetic field. To be able to treat scattering potentials of finite extent in magnetic field we use a mixed momentum-coordinate representation to obtain an integral equation for the multiband scattering matrix. For a large embedded quantum ring we are able to obtain Aharanov-Bohm type of oscillations with superimposed narrow resonances caused by interaction with quasi-bound states in the ring. We also employ scattering matrix approach to calculate the conductance through a semi-extended barrier or well in the wire. The numerical implementations we resort to in order to describe the cases of weak and intermediate magnetic field allow us to produce high resolution maps of the ``near field'' scattering wave functions, which are used to shed light on the underlying scattering processes.

description: The increasing reliance on renewable energy generation means that storage may well play a much greater role in the balancing of future electricity systems. We show how heterogeneous stores, differing in capacity and rate constraints, may be optimally, or nearly optimally, scheduled to assist in such balancing, with the aim of minimising the total imbalance (unserved energy) over any given period of time. It further turns out that in many cases the optimal policies are such that the optimal decision at each point in time is independent of the future evolution of the supply-demand balance in the system, so that these policies remain optimal in a stochastic environment.

description: Assessment of heart rate variability (reflective of the cardiac autonomic nervous system) has shown some predictive power for stress. Further, the predictive power of the distinct patterns of cortical brain activity and - cardiac autonomic interactions are yet to be explored in the context of acute stress, as assessed by an electrocardiogram and electroencephalogram. The present study identified distinct patterns of neural-cardiac autonomic coupling during both resting and acute stress states. In particular, during the stress task, frontal delta waves activity was positively associated with low-frequency heart rate variability and negatively associated with high-frequency heart rate variability. Low high-frequency power is associated with stress and anxiety and reduced vagal control. A positive association between resting high-frequency heart rate variability and frontocentral gamma activity was found, with a direct inverse relationship of low-frequency heart rate variability and gamma wave coupling at rest. During the stress task, low-frequency heart rate variability was positively associated with frontal delta activity. That is, the parasympathetic nervous system is reduced during a stress task, whereas frontal delta wave activity is increased. Our findings suggest an association between cardiac parasympathetic nervous system activity and frontocentral gamma and delta activity at rest and during acute stress. This suggests that parasympathetic activity is decreased during acute stress, and this is coupled with neuronal cortical prefrontal activity. The distinct patterns of neural-cardiac coupling identified in this study provide a unique insight into the dynamic associations between brain and heart function during both resting and acute stress states.

Проведено сопоставление величин индексов с расчетными (B3LYP/6-31+G(d)) активационными и термодинамическими параметрами реакции скрамблинга пероксида бензоила и его взаимодействия с некоторыми мономерами (растворителями). Обнаружено, что участие молекул рассмотренных мономеров или растворителей в реакции скрамблинга повышает барьер ∆G≠ (понижает скорость) рекомбинации бензоатных радикалов в клетке, что должно увеличить долю свободных радикалов в стадии инициирования.

description: The ground states and excited states of the Lipkin model hamiltonian are calculated using a new theoretical approach which has been derived from an extended time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory known as the time-dependent density-matrix theory (TDDM). TDDM enables us to calculate correlated ground states, and its small amplitude limit (STDDM), which is a version of extended RPA theories based on a correlated ground state, can be used to calculate excited states. It is found that this TDDM plus STDDM approach gives much better results for both the ground states and the excited states than the Hartree-Fock ground state plus RPA approach.

description: Peik and Tamm [Europhys. Lett. 61, 181 (2003)] proposed a nuclear clock based on the isomeric transition between the ground state and the first excited state of thorium-229. This transition was recognized as a potentially sensitive probe of possible temporal variation of the fine-structure constant, $α$. The sensitivity to such a variation can be determined from measurements of the mean-square charge radius and quadrupole moment of the different isomers. However, current measurements of the quadrupole moment are yet to achieve an accuracy high enough to resolve non-zero sensitivity. Here we determine this sensitivity using existing measurements of the change in the mean-square charge radius, coupled with the ansatz of constant nuclear density. The enhancement factor for $α$ variation is $K = -(0.82 \pm 0.25) \times 10^4$. For the current experimental limit, $δα/α\lesssim 10^{-17}$ per year, the corresponding frequency shift is $\sim\!200$ Hz per year. This shift is six orders of magnitude larger than the projected accuracy of the nuclear clock, paving the way for increased accuracy of the determination of $δα$ and interaction strength with low-mass scalar dark matter. We verify that the constant-nuclear-density ansatz is supported by nuclear theory and propose how to verify it experimentally. We also consider a possible effect of the octupole deformation on the sensitivity to $α$ variation, and calculate the effects of $α$ variation in a number of Mössbauer transitions.

description: The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is a cornerstone of EU policy relating to rural areas. Initially, it aimed to provide a harmonised framework for maintaining adequate supplies, increasing productivity and ensuring that both consumers and producers received a fair deal in the market. These priorities have shifted to environmental and animal welfare concerns, as well as food safety and security aspects. As a consequence, the CAP has gradually moved from a production-based structure of subsidies to a market-oriented system, integrating standards for food, environment and biodiversity, as well as animal welfare. In 2010, the EU launched an extensive debate on the future of the CAP, as the European Union needs a better tailored, reformed Common Agricultural Policy to answer the challenges of food, growth and jobs in rural areas. The European agriculture must address the expectations of rural society and demands of the market concerning public goods, the environment and climate change. This raises questions of whether the CAP payments in the past have been effective in achieving their objectives and whether direct payments should be continued for supporting agricultural environmental issues.
ROLE OF INNOVATIONS AND KNOWLEDGE – INFRASTRUCTURE AND INSTITUTIONS

description: There is a well known saying: Research converts money into knowledge, innovation converts knowledge into money. The knowledge-based economy has four pillars: innovation, education, the economic and institutional regime, and information infrastructure. Transformation towards a knowledge-based economy will necessarily shift the proportion and growth of national income derived from knowledge-based industries, the percentage of the workforce employed in knowledge-based jobs and the ratio of firms using technology to innovate. Progress towards a knowledge-based economy will be driven by four elements: human capital development, knowledge generation and exploitation (R&D), knowledge infrastructure. Increased investment in these four areas will certainly have an impact. National experience, however, suggests that an incremental approach will not work. Nations that have achieved accelerated growth in outputs and capabilities have acted decisively, targeting investments in areas of strategic opportunity. The organizational and infrastructural improvement of research requires supranational cooperation and the promotion of the free movement of knowledge. Therefore, the EU decision on the establishment of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), which ensures that the GDP proportion for research and development (R&D) shall achieve 3% stipulated by member states in the long run, is particularly welcome.

description: BACKGROUND: The World Health Organization recommends consumption of a minimum of 400 g of fruits and vegetables per day for prevention of cardiovascular disease. Low fruit and vegetable intake is associated with an increased risk of stroke by 11% and ischemic heart disease by 31%. The present study aims to explore factors affecting the fruit and vegetable intake in Nepal and its association with history of self-reported major cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction and stroke). METHOD: Data for this cross-sectional study were collected as part of the study "Community Based Management of Hypertension in Nepal" initiated in the Lekhnath Municipality in 2013. Demographic and nutrition information were collected using the WHO STEPwise approach to a surveillance tool. Descriptive statistics identified the frequency and percentage of fruit and vegetable intake. A Chi-square test examined the association between fruit and vegetable intake and history of self-reported cardiovascular events, socio-demographic and cardiovascular risk factors. Binary logistic regression analysis identified odds ratio with 95% confidence intervals between fruit and vegetable intake and history of self-reported cardiovascular events. RESULTS: The mean and median intake of fruits and vegetables were 3.3 ± 0.79 and 3 servings respectively. Of the 2815 respondents, 2% (59) reported having a history of major cardiovascular events. The adjusted odds of having a history of major cardiovascular events was 2.22 (95%CI, 1.06-4.66) for those who consumed

description: The paper analyses the economic effects of specific co-existence measures (like e.g. increasing isolation distances between GM and non-GM plants, changing flowering time between varieties, non-GM buffer zones) in maize crop and seed production in selected regions in France. The results are based on simulations of agronomic measures and corresponding cost calculations for specific measures and landscape simulations. In maize grain production levels of adventitious presence below 0.9 % can be achieved without any co-operation between farmers in neighbouring clusters. In case fields are located in the same cluster, additional measures have to be taken with very differing cost effects depending on the specific characteristic of the measure. Additional measures should also be taken (either by the seed company or by the commercial GM grower) for ensuring co-existence between commercial GM fields and non-GM seed production clusters, while current practices would be sufficient for ensuring co-existence between GM and non-GM maize seed production plots for a threshold of 0.5 % adventitious presence.

description: Serbia has small number of producers which have encircled production system (from primary production to processing), which do business successful, introduce marketing strategy and production standards, registered their products' mark of origin, succeed to export on EU market, use internet or has its own internet domain, etc. For creation of such, competitive and modern agricultural producer, there is necessity for production specialization, any kind of cooperation and better organization. In same time, there is more space for bigger financial support of state, as expert and consultative support „created“ through strong partnership between public and private sector, i.e. tough and constructive cooperation of state and farmers sector, like as institutions of education, science, research and consultative work. In the paper was given review of number and territorial dispersion of educational institutions, current scientific-research work and consultative functions in agriculture in Serbia, than was pointed out main problems in their functioning and previous work and also proposed concrete suggestions for overcoming of existing limitations, as for modernization /reorganization of those institutions, in a way to be more useful for agricultural producers.
