description: © 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Seed germination is a critical process for completion of the plant life cycle and for global food production. Comparing the germination transcriptomes of barley (Hordeum vulgare) to Arabidopsis thaliana revealed the overall pattern was conserved in terms of functional gene ontology; however, many oppositely responsive orthologous genes were identified. Conserved processes included a set of approximately 6000 genes that peaked early in germination and were enriched in processes associated with RNA metabolism, e.g., pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR)-containing proteins. Comparison of orthologous genes revealed more than 3000 orthogroups containing almost 4000 genes that displayed similar expression patterns including functions associated with mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, carbohydrate and RNA/DNA metabolism, autophagy, protein modifications, and organellar function. Biochemical and proteomic analyses indicated mitochondrial biogenesis occurred early in germination, but detailed analyses revealed the timing involved in mitochondrial biogenesis may vary between species. More than 1800 orthogroups representing 2000 genes displayed opposite patterns in transcript abundance, representing functions of energy (carbohydrate) metabolism, photosynthesis, protein synthesis and degradation, and gene regulation. Differences in expression of basic-leucine zippers (bZIPs) and Apetala 2 (AP2)/ethylene-responsive element binding proteins (EREBPs) point to differences in regulatory processes at a high level, which provide opportunities to modify processes in order to enhance grain quality, germination, and storage as needed for different uses.

description: © 2020, The Author(s). Background: This study explored the psychometric properties and dimensionality of the Stress of Conscience Questionnaire (SCQ) in a sample of health professionals from a tertiary-level Australian hospital. The SCQ, a measure of stress of conscience, is a recently developed nine-item instrument for assessing frequently encountered stressful situations in health care, and the degree to which they trouble the conscience of health professionals. This is relevant because stress of conscience has been associated with negative experiences such as job strain and/or burnout. The validity of SCQ has not been explored beyond Scandinavian contexts. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 253 health professionals was undertaken in 2015. The analysis involved estimates of reliability, variability and dimensionality. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to explore dimensionality and theoretical model fit respectively. Results: Cronbach’s alpha of 0.84 showed internal consistency reliability. All individual items of the SCQ (N = 9) met the cut-off criteria for item-total correlations (> 0.3) indicating acceptable homogeneity. Adequate variability was confirmed for most of the items, with some items indicating floor or ceiling effects. EFA retained a single latent factor with adequate factor loadings for a unidimensional structure. When the two‐factor model was compared to the one‐factor model, the latter achieved better goodness of fit supporting a one-factor model for the SCQ. Conclusion: The SCQ, as a unidimensional measure of stress of conscience, achieved adequate reliability and variability in this study. Due to unidimensionality of the tool, summation of a total score can be a meaningful way forward to summarise and communicate results from future studies, enabling international comparisons. However, further exploration of the questionnaire in other cultures and clinical settings is recommended to explore the stability of the latent one-factor structure.

description: © 2020, The Author(s). Foetus sterility until parturition is under debate due to reports of microorganisms in the foetal environment and meconium. Sufficient controls to overcome sample contamination and provide direct evidence of microorganism viability in the pre-rectal gastrointestinal tract (GIT) have been lacking. We conducted molecular and culture-based analyses to investigate the presence of a microbiome in the foetal GIT of calves at 5, 6 and 7 months gestation, while controlling for contamination. The 5 components of the GIT (ruminal fluid, ruminal tissue, caecal fluid, caecal tissue and meconium) and amniotic fluid were found to contain a pioneer microbiome of distinct bacterial and archaeal communities. Bacterial and archaeal richness varied between GIT components. The dominant bacterial phyla in amniotic fluid differed to those in ruminal and caecal fluids and meconium. The lowest bacterial and archaeal abundances were associated with ruminal tissues. Viable bacteria unique to the ruminal fluids, which were not found in the controls from 5, 6 and 7 months gestation, were cultured, subcultured, sequenced and identified. We report that the foetal GIT is not sterile but is spatially colonised before birth by a pioneer microbiome.

description: B.Sc. Thesis, October 2010. Supervisor: Dr. Paolo Massa, Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Trento. Abstract: Using a private car is a transportation system very common in industrialized countries.
However, it causes different problems such as overuse of oil, traffic jams causing earth
pollution, health problems and an inefficient use of personal time.
One possible solution to these problems is carpooling, i.e. sharing a trip on a private
car of a driver with one or more passengers. Carpooling would reduce the number of cars
on streets hence providing worldwide environmental, economical and social benefits. The
matching of drivers and passengers can be facilitated by information and communication
technologies. Typically, a driver inserts on a web-site the availability of empty seats on
his/her car for a planned trip and potential passengers can search for trips and contact
the drivers. This process is slow and can be appropriate for long trips planned days in
advance. We call this static carpooling and we note it is not used frequently by people
even if there are already many web-sites offering this service and in fact the only real open
challenge is widespread adoption.
Dynamic carpooling, on the other hand, takes advantage of the recent and increasing
adoption of Internet-connected geo-aware mobile devices for enabling impromptu trip opportunities.
Passengers request trips directly on the street and can find a suitable ride in
just few minutes. Currently there are no dynamic carpooling systems widely used. While
adoption is still a key issue, dynamic carpooling offers many open basic challenges related
to the implementation of the technological infrastructure.
This dissertation describes Dycapo, an open-source project for enabling dynamic carpooling
services. After a review of the state of the art and a comparative analysis of
dynamic carpooling issues, the two main components of the project are described, namely
the protocol and the server. Dycapo Protocol is an open REST-based protocol for sharing
trip information among dynamic carpooling clients and servers, taking inspiration from
OpenTrip, a previously proposed data exchange format. Dycapo Server is a prototype
providing web services for dynamic carpooling functionalities, implementing Dycapo Protocol.
Our aim with the release of an open protocol and open source code is to provide
a missing standard and platform that providers of dynamic carpooling services can adopt
and extend.

description: Australian College of Midwives Objective: To evaluate new mothers’ experiences of infant feeding support. Design: A postal survey developed for this study was sent to all new mothers in ten local government areas in Victoria, Australia when their baby was six months of age. Questions explored infant feeding methods, feeding support services, and experiences of infant feeding support. This survey made up one component of the Supporting breastfeeding In Local Communities (SILC) cluster randomised controlled trial. Findings: 997/4127 women (24%) completed the survey between 15 April 2013 and 31 July 2013. Women received infant feeding support from multiple sources, including professionals, family members, and peers. Overall, 88% reported receiving adequate infant feeding support. Women who reported not receiving adequate infant feeding support were less likely to be giving any breast milk at six months compared to those reporting adequate support (OR = 0.59; 95% CI 0.40, 0.88). Adjusting for breastfeeding intention and parity did not alter the association (Adj. OR = 0.60; 95% CI 0.40, 0.90). Women were most satisfied when they received accessible, available, consistent professional infant feeding support provided in a non-judgemental and reassuring way. Women were dissatisfied when there were barriers restricting access to support, or when they received conflicting advice or support that made them feel guilty, pressured or judged. Key conclusions: Regardless of infant feeding method, women wanted accessible, non-judgemental support. Given that receiving adequate support was associated with more breast milk feeding at six months, care providers should ensure accessible infant feeding support is available to all new mothers.

description: The structural insulated panel (SIP) is an engineered composite product composed of an insulating foam core sandwiched to provide the insulation and rigidity, and two face-skin materials to provide durability and strength. SIPs can also be used as permanent wood foundation (PWF) for basements in low-rise residential construction to save in the energy cost. The maximum deflection equation specified in the Canadian Standard for Engineering Design of Wood, CAN/CSA-O86.09 specifies expressions for the effects of short-term bending deflection on the PWF timber stud walls. Information on the long-term creep behavior of SIPs under sustained triangular loading, simulating soil pressure, including effect of the change in ambient temperature and relative humidity is as yet unavailable. The long-term creep deflection for permanent wood foundation panels that is characterized as viscoelastic materials is highly affected by the change in ambient temperature and relative humidity. This paper reported the results from flexural creep experiments performed on two sets of different sizes of PWF made of structural-insulated foam-timber panels. In these tests, deflection, temperature and relative humidity were tracked for an eight-month period. The experimental findings were examined against existing creep models in the literature. Then, a creep model incorporating the effects of temperature and relative humidity on creep deflection was developed. Correlation between the proposed model and the experimental findings provides confidence on using the proposed model in the determination of the capacity of the PWF under combined gravity loading and sustained soil pressure as affected by temperature variation and relative humidity.

description: Over a decade ago Polymerase δ interacting protein of 38 kDa (PDIP38) was proposed to play a role in DNA repair. Since this time, both the physiological function and subcellular location of PDIP38 has remained ambiguous and our present understanding of PDIP38 function has been hampered by a lack of detailed biochemical and structural studies. Here we show, that human PDIP38 is directed to the mitochondrion in a membrane potential dependent manner, where it resides in the matrix compartment, together with its partner protein CLPX. Our structural analysis revealed that PDIP38 is composed of two conserved domains separated by an α/β linker region. The N-terminal (YccV-like) domain of PDIP38 forms an SH3-like β-barrel, which interacts specifically with CLPX, via the adaptor docking loop within the N-terminal Zinc binding domain of CLPX. In contrast, the C-terminal (DUF525) domain forms an immunoglobin-like β-sandwich fold, which contains a highly conserved putative substrate binding pocket. Importantly, PDIP38 modulates the substrate specificity of CLPX and protects CLPX from LONM-mediated degradation, which stabilises the cellular levels of CLPX. Collectively, our findings shed new light on the mechanism and function of mitochondrial PDIP38, demonstrating that PDIP38 is a bona fide adaptor protein for the mitochondrial protease, CLPXP.

description: The primary goal of this paper is to present a distributive proposal for reinterpreting Solow’s residual and apply it within the Chilean context. We argue that Solow’s residual can only indirectly capture technological phenomena. This critique draws upon the contribution of Felipe and McCombie (2020), who contend that production functions merely reflect an identity account. Hence, the so-called Total Factor Productivity (TFP) mirrors the dynamic of real wages and the rate of profit.


We adopt a descriptive approach to estimate and decompose the Solow residual growth for the Chilean economy, to discern the origins of distributional changes between 1985 and 2019. A key patterns is that throughout almost the entire period, the dynamic of the Solow residual is closely intertwined with fluctuations in the profit rate. Additionally, we decompose the profit rate to highlight that the decline in the Chilean economy’s profit rate stems from both distributional and technological factors.

description: © 2020, The Author(s). Background: The optimal method to collect accurate healthcare utilisation data in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is not well established. The aim of this study was to determine feasibility and compare self-report and administrative data sources to capture health care resource use in people with COPD for 12 months following pulmonary rehabilitation. Methods: This is a secondary analysis of a randomised controlled equivalence trial comparing centre-based and home-based pulmonary rehabilitation. Healthcare utilisation data were collected for 12 months following pulmonary rehabilitation from self-report (monthly telephone questionnaires and diaries) and administrative sources (Medicare Benefits Schedule, medical records). Feasibility was assessed by the proportion of self-reports completed and accuracy was established using month-by-month and per participant comparison of self-reports with administrative data. Results: Data were available for 145/163 eligible study participants (89%, mean age 69 (SD 9) years, mean forced expiratory volume in 1 s 51 (SD 19) % predicted; n = 83 male). For 1725 months where data collection was possible, 1160 (67%) telephone questionnaires and 331 (19%) diaries were completed. Accuracy of recall varied according to type of health care encounter and self-report method, being higher for telephone questionnaire report of emergency department presentation (Kappa 0.656, p < 0.001; specificity 99%, sensitivity 59%) and hospital admission (Kappa 0.669, p < 0.001; specificity 97%, sensitivity 68%) and lower for general practitioner (Kappa 0.400, p < 0.001; specificity 62%, sensitivity 78%) and medical specialist appointments (Kappa 0.458, p < 0.001; specificity 88%, sensitivity 58%). A wide variety of non-medical encounters were reported (allied health and nursing) which were not captured in administrative data. Conclusion: For self-reported methods of healthcare utilisation in people with COPD following pulmonary rehabilitation, monthly telephone questionnaires were more frequently completed and more accurate than diaries. Compared to administrative records, self-reports of emergency department presentations and inpatient admissions were more accurate than for general practitioner and medical specialist appointments.

description: The objective of this paper is to study the relationship between productive structure and economic performance at the subnational level in Argentina. Based on a dataset at the subnational level, we study the impact on economic growth of three types of productive patterns: i) productive efficiency (W), ii) related variety (RV), and iii) unrelated variety (UV). In addition, we explore to what extent this impact is conditioned by the level of technological intensity of productive structures. Results show that unrelated variety positively impacts on economic growth when it happens within a context of high levels of technological intensity of productive structures. When this is not the case, the impact might even be negative, or there may be no impact at all.

description: "Crypta Manent ‘013" aims to create a hybrid virtual-reality, immersive, and scenographic exhibition-space/path, representing a Catacomb of the Ancient Rome, installed inside a modern, itinerant museum. The resulting environment is dynamically connected to big open dataset [LOD], specific for the archeological Built Heritage, enriched with correlated media resources, aiming to process them in quasi-real time, through urgent computation algorithms, and live reproducing different path and archeo-environment live. The resulting experience touches every sense and stimuli [visual, acoustic, tactile, olfactory, cognitive and learning], coming to the "immersive" experiment, since a so called "tech-capsule" is installed reproducing in stereoscopic, immersive performance a real underground walkway, assisted by wearable devices. The dynamics of data streams coming from the set of Big Open Data, leads up to the experience to “5 dimensions”.
A phenomenological description of feeling not-good-enough in the workplace: The worth of worth
Creators: name: Matheson, Anne
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 399999
subject: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Within feeling not-good-enough there are two types of experience. The first is the chronic experience, where feeling not-good-enough is an ongoing filter to perception, from which there is no escape or resolution. Here people’s experience of their sense of worth is damaged. The second is the episodic experience in which feeling not-good-enough is an episode that occurs, and for which there is always resolution, and people’s experience of their sense of worth is restored. A narrative description of the whole phenomenon is given through the two types of experience, the chronic and the episodic.

description: The vulnerability of countries related to climate change is driven by different conditions, with geographical location and lack of adequate infrastructure making South America especially vulnerable. Research highlights the importance of South American forests in mitigating climate change. The increasing frequency of climate events calls for preventive attitudes, focusing on sustainable financing. Developed countries have a particular responsibility to support developing countries in addressing the impacts of climate change. A recent study highlights the importance of foreign investment flows in BRICS countries. The article aims to compare the flows of foreign investments between different countries in South America in 2010, 2015, and 2020, using the theory of economic social networks to explore the financial relationships between them. The results indicate interesting changes in the flow of green investments for climate change mitigation, especially in South American countries.

description: The main purpose of the paper is to build a balance of payments constraint model with capital inflows, where green innovations are inducers of the structural change process. The main results indicate that green R&D can reduce the growth rate of natural resource use. On the other hand, green structural change will only occur if foreign direct investment has spillover effects on green R&D.

description: This paper discusses methodological individualism and the perceived “need” for microfoundations in economic theory. It argues that the persistent focus on microfoundations has led a large part of the field to overlook the complexity of social interactions, the relevance of historical processes, and the characteristics of each society in understanding economic growth and development. The paper suggested focusing on social foundations as an alternative to microfoundations that is particularly relevant for studying economic development processes. It proposes framing the post-Keynesian view of demand-led growth and distribution-led growth within a conceptual framework of socio-economic development as a valid approach, consistent with social foundations, to understand a phenomenon as complex and multi-causal as development.

Structural change, commodity dependence and middle-income trap: Emerging approaches to a traditional agenda

description: The objective of this paper is to revisit key themes of development literature in the light of novel emerging approaches. Applying complexity economic tools, evidence is presented to argue that, along the development trajectory of countries, a complexity increase, to be sustainable, must go hand in hand with a departure from their productive historical path, in the form of unrelated diversification. Also, it is argued that successful trajectories must avoid the middle-income trap (MIT), which is shown to stem from the interplay of supply and demand factors. Finally, building on balance of payments constrained growth literature, a theoretical model is proposed to explain the high prevalence of MIT situations among commodity-dependent countries. It is suggested that this phenomenon arises from the interaction of commodity price volatility and real exchange rates, which affects the accumulation of sophisticated productive capabilities.

description: Currency substitution defined as the use of foreign currency in the domestic economy is a relatively common phenomenon in developing countries. While mainstream economics has analyzed it in some detail, the same is not the case in heterodox economics. This paper proposes an analytical approach to evaluate the effects of currency substitution and its relationship with exchange rate dynamics; it provides an empirical investigation of orthodox and alternative views for the case of Argentina. The orthodox view emphasizes the role of fiscal deficits financed by monetary emissions, while alternative views emphasize the importance of external vulnerabilities, both associated with current and financial account deficits as the source of currency substitution. We find some support in favor of the alternative or heterodox perspective on currency substitution or dollarization.

description: Complex systems may be a useful methodological tool to address “challenges for research in development”. There is a huge and growing literature on complex systems and economic theory that might be related to early intuitions of classical economists on the workings of capitalist economies. Kondratiev and Slutsky have worked with features of complex systems – how technological revolutions change the system. This may underlie one peculiarity of capitalism – a complex system that changes its level of complexity over time. The inclusion of the periphery broadens its turbulent nature: a complex system that combines regions with self-organization dynamics – the center – and regions with random behavior – the periphery.

description: RIW [portmanteau ger. "Revolution", "Ist", "Webber", also eng. "Revolutionist" "Webber"] is a quasi-MAB [quasi-Multi Authors Blog] maintaining both the centrality for a main author, and distributing the fulcrums as in the Theory of Networks, thus creating a participatory, poly-centric, adaptive and genetic-growing platform. The model of the RIW is a hybrid between an organized multi-layers, hierarchical pyramid and a Network of networks [NNs], springing a fertile pattern for innovative political and social organizations. In this introductory paper, we apply our original scheme introduced with the so called “CircÓs® OpenJournalism” into a famous Italian journalist's blog, currently maintained on Wordpress [Rivoluzione Italiana], determining a swap to a triple helix governed genetic growing new ecosystem.

Interlukein-6 as a Predictor for Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury Recovery

description: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability around the world, making it a major public health concern. The post-injury condition is marked by a complex, pathophysiological nature and wide-ranging physical, emotional, and cognitive symptoms. We hope to explore the connection, if any, between interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels and patient recovery following a head injury in pediatric patients. Essentially, we predict that higher IL-6 levels would correspond with more unfavorable patient outcomes following injury, and this relationship would be found to be more robust in TBI participants. To forward this objective, we used serum IL-6 samples and three surveys completed at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months since the initial hospital visit. We compared these values to a set of pediatric orthopedic controls to isolate TBI-specific biomarker-outcome interactions. Thus far, our findings indicate that IL-6 levels are a poor predictor for patient post-injury outcome for TBI cases and a moderately good predictor in orthopedic controls. Yet, on average, participants who reported worse outcomes had higher IL-6 levels, even across both groups. These findings allow for us to understand how certain biomarkers, such as IL-6, may play a role in predicting TBI-specific recovery in pediatric patients.
