description: Decision making all seems like forms of randomization, but some of them may follow distinctive cognitive patterns. We all have distinct forms of communication with each other, but all utilize some sort of consciousness, and our thought processes all seem to have both internal and external physiological attributes. We have similar guilt variances in relation to behavioral patterns, we have different ways we react to certainty vs. uncertainty, and we have similar as well as distinct instincts. How people react to social influence and perceived value as well as emotionally driven responses are also especially interesting. The concept of CloutContracts, for conversation purposes, is a blockchain platform that has originally been designed to democratize social media. It has also been meant to be a rollup layer amongst other things. However, a core premise is how do people react to perceived value if the decision making is decentralized as opposed to centralized? What is human influence? Then again, are humans and the way we think somehow universally mathematically representable?

description: Although income diversification is a well-established strategy for mitigating poverty and household food insecurity, gendered dimensions have been under-investigated. Examining a specific district in northern Ghana with heightened levels of food insecurity, we asked two questions: 1) Does income diversification reduce the risk of experiencing household food insecurity? and if so, 2) Does the relationship differ between women and men? This investigation used univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analysis of a cross-sectional survey of married spouses in 435 households. Results indicate that income diversification is linked with greater reporting of household food insecurity (OR = 1.23, p < 0.01). The link between livelihood diversification and household food insecurity is stronger among women than their husbands (OR = 1.27, p < 0.01). While we do not know whether diversified livelihoods cause food insecurity or food insecurity causes someone to diversify their income, improving the stability of income sources for both women and men in ways that consider gendered food dynamics is needed, particularly in rural African geographies disproportionally dependent upon biophysical environments and economies that are rapidly changing. African geographers and rural development professionals need to consider multiple individual and diverse gendered experiences for progressing scholarship that strives to explain and resolve uneven livelihood outcomes for household food security.

description: © 2020, Springer Nature B.V. Land clearing of habitat into smaller, isolated remnants is a major driver of plant and animal extinctions globally. In southeastern Australia, once widespread temperate savannas have been subjected to extensive land clearing since European settlement. Some small fragments have persisted, but declines in the dominant trees have been reported, with anecdotal observations of widespread recruitment bottlenecks and seed set failure. To test the hypothesis that populations of Banksia marginata are experiencing widespread recruitment bottlenecks, we examined tree size-class distribution and production of infructescences (cones) of 15 populations on the western plains of Victoria, Australia. We found no evidence of widespread recruitment bottlenecks or a failure to set seeds; most populations were recruiting, though we did find evidence of declining recruitment with population size, suggesting evidence of an Allee effect. The proportion of trees without cones varied between populations; three populations had large numbers of trees (> 40%) lacking mature fertile cones. Managers should focus on minimising threats to seedling survival and augment populations below 100 individuals to improve recruitment and maintain stand persistence in the landscape.

description: Biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles has attracted researcher’s attention in recent days because of the necessity to develop new clean, cost effective and efficient techniques. In our study, we report green biogenic approach to synthesize silver nanoparticles using flower extract of Rosa damascena as reducing and stabilizing agent. The phytochemicals present in the petal extract induced the reduction of Ag+ ions which resulted in the formation of conjugated nanoparticles. The formation and stability of the as-produced nanoparticles were monitored by UV-visible spectrophotometer that demonstrated an absorbance peak at around 412 nm corresponding to the plasmon resonance of silver nanoparticles. The average crystallite size of the particles calculated from the obtained XRD spectra using Debye Scherrer’s formula was 4 nm. TEM results confirmed the formation of nano-sized polydispersed quasi-spherical shaped particles having the average diameter size of approximately 20 nm. Analysis of FTIR spectra revealed that the chemical moieties containing mainly amine, carboxyl, alcohol, esters functional groups coated the surface of the nanoparticles. Obtained nanoparticles were highly stable with no agglomeration even it is preserved for a period of 3 months and showed ‘good’ antibacterial activity.

description: Abstract: Chemical and microbiological contamination of ground water has several implications for human health. The study of chemical and microbiological contamination of water was carried out in Sitnica river (Kosova). Water samples were collected in 10 sampling points and fourteen different parameters are investigated. The program “Statistica ver. 6.0” has been used for calculations of basic statistical parameters and anomalies (extremes and outliers). These chemometric approaches and results yielded useful information about water quality and can lead to better water resource management. Dendograms and box-whisker plots were drawn to evaluate the chemical variation. The levels of some microbiological and phisico-chemical parameters and ecotoxic ions from surface waters are compared with the results from the river source where anthropogenic effects are negative. Our results show for chemical and microbiological pollutions as results of anthropogenic factors coming from settlements, peripheral rivers and agricultural in the region surround.

description: Synthesis of polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-organoclay nanocomposite was studied through grafting of PAN onto organophilic kaolinite. The organophilic kaolinite was prepared by treatment of kaolinite with different rations of hexadecylethyldimethylammonium (HDEDMA) to kaolinite. The chemical grafting polymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) onto organophilic kaolinite was performed. The synthesized polymer-organoclay nanocomposite was studied for simultaneous adsorption of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) and methylene blue dye (MB) from aqueous solutions. The results of Cr(VI) or the dye adsorption revealed that the adsorbed amounts increased with increasing HDETMA concentration. The removal percentage of Cr(VI) reached more than 98 % if individually studied, while 96 % was obtained when competing with dye. Also the adsorption of Cr(VI) was potentially influenced by its concentration in solution. The isothermal studies were performed using Langmuir and Freundlish models. The maximum calculated adsorption capacity was found to be 127 mg g-1 and 68 mg g-1 for Cr(VI) and methylene blue, respectively for individual adsorption, while in simultaneous adsorption their adsorption capacity was not affected by each other.

description: The study compared access to disease-modifying treatments (DMTs), care, and services for multiple sclerosis (MS) patients across six Central and Eastern European Countries (CEECs). A 2-part questionnaire-based survey was conducted among experts from Bulgaria, Estonia, Poland, Romania, Serbia, and Slovakia over 4 months (1 December 2022 – 1 April 2023). The study reveals notable variations in the legal requirements for pricing and reimbursement of MS medications, as well as criteria for health technology assessment (HTA) across countries. Despite these differences, DMTs were fully reimbursed in all countries. Poland exhibited the highest MS expenditures in 2021, totaling 171 million euros. Administrative procedures for prescribing and dispensing MS drugs were similar across countries, but the range of services and support offered to MS patients varied. Assessment of treatment accessibility, based on the number of authorized DMTs listed in Positive Drug Lists (PDLs), shows Bulgaria leading with 84.21% access, followed closely by Poland and Slovakia with comparable rates of 78.95%. The study revealed disparities in health care and services for MS patients across the countries surveyed. Addressing these disparities and the need for targeted interventions to ensure equitable access is critical. Further research is needed to find effective solutions.

Canada. Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms
Supreme Court of Canada

description: Brian Dickson was the first chief justice during the enactment of The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Charter is enshrined in the Canadian constitution and became the supreme law of Canada when enacted with the purpose being to protect the rights and freedoms it established for Canadians. Dickson’s exceptional impact on a variety of cases led him to being one of the most revered figures in Canadian legal history. His numerous landmark decisions are accentuated by his abounding number of Supreme Court decisions that have affirmed many aspects of the Charter. This thesis will attempt to highlight his many decisions and the sections of the Charter they recognized. This will be done by analyzing Dickson’s reasoning through a qualitative study. A mixed method research design will be paired with a mixture of purposive and convenience sampling to acquire cases with the greatest thematic value. Then, a thematic analysis will be conducted to highlight Dickson’s interpretation of the case and the language of the Charter. The five cases chosen for this thesis will be the s.8 case of Hunter et.al v. Southam Inc. (1984), a s.2 freedom of religion case in R. v. Big M Drug Mart Ltd (1985), a s.1 and s.11(d) case of R. v. Oakes (1986), a s.2(b) freedom of expression case in Irwin Toy Ltd. v. Quebec (Attorney General) (1989) and a s.15 case in Andrews v. Law Society of British Columbia (1989). The chosen cases are described as being the first major decisions for their respective Charter sections and will help illustrate the important effect Dickson had in setting up the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms for its sustained and ever-lasting success.

description: © The Author(s) 2020. This study was conducted to set up a new reference line for municipal solid waste quantification and characterization in the least urbanized cities of a developing nation. A survey was run to collect baseline data from 60 new municipalities of Nepal. The study covered a sample size of 3300 households, 600 institutions and 600 commercial establishments in those municipalities. The municipalities were further stratified according to geographical location, the degree of urbanization, household expenditure and population size to assess the influence on waste generation. The results indicated that the average per capita household waste generation is 115 g day-1 while the average total municipal waste generation was estimated to be 180 g day-1 per capita.The study also revealed that size of municipal population, geographic location, household expenditure and degree of urbanization were found to have a significant influence on the unit waste generation. The larger the size of municipal population the higher the per capita household waste generation, degree of urbanization and per capita waste production. Increasing household expenditure revealed an increase in the unit waste generation. The waste categories included organic waste, plastics, paper and paper products, textiles, rubber and leather, metals, glass, and others. The results indicated that organic waste dominated the characterization (62%), followed by plastics (12%) and paper/paper products (11%).

Publisher: name: La Trobe
Year: 2020
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: © 2020 Elsevier Ltd This paper studies the bending, buckling and free vibration analyses of functionally graded (FG) sandwich microbeams using the third-order beam theory. The modified strain gradient theory (MSGT) with three material length scale parameters (MLSPs) is used to capture the size effect. The Mori-Tanaka homogenization scheme is employed to model the material distributions through the thickness. Finite element model is formulated to solve the problems. Verification studies for epoxy and FG microbeams are carried out to validate of the present model. Comparisons of the results of three different models such as MSGT, the modified couple stress theory (MCST) and classical continuum theory (CCT) are presented. Effects of small size, gradient index, shear deformation and boundary conditions on the structural behaviours of microbeams are investigated. Some new results of FG sandwich microbeams for both models (MCST and MSGT) are presented for the first time and can be used as benchmark in future studies.

Publisher: name: La Trobe
Year: 2021
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. Conjugation of reciprocal transformations is used to solve a class of boundary value problems involving a source term relevant to water transport through a heterogeneous medium with a volumetric extraction mechanism. The main emphasis is the solution method that involves conjugation of reciprocal transformations, as well as other changes of variable, applied to a newly identified integrable model. The transport equation is a version of the nonlinear Richards equation, based on Buckingham’s extension of Darcy’s law to unsaturated media, now allowing for heterogeneous transport coefficients. In addition, there is a plant-root water extraction term that depends on both water content and position. The nonlinear boundary conditions have prescribed flux at one boundary and zero flux at the other barrier boundary of a one-dimensional heterogeneous medium.

description: Abstract

Knowledge sharing in healthcare is crucial for enhancing clinical practices and patient care. This study investigates the impact of work culture and the use of digital information resources on knowledge sharing among health professionals in state-owned hospitals in Oyo State, Nigeria. Employing a survey research design, the study sampled 234 out of 596 health professionals using a validated questionnaire with a 100% response rate. The findings indicate a high level of knowledge sharing, with an overall mean score of 3.33 (SD = 0.598) on a 4-point scale. Health professionals actively share knowledge on medical procedures, drug administration, best practices, and digital health technologies. Face-to-face interactions and mobile phones are the predominant channels for sharing, with 100% utilization reported. Despite moderate engagement with digital resources (M = 3.01, SD = 0.768), barriers such as inadequate technology use and lack of incentives affect knowledge sharing. Work culture significantly influences knowledge sharing, accounting for 55.6% of the variance, with hierarchical structures and criteria for success having positive effects. Digital resources use has a minimal influence (Adj. R² = 0.069). The study concludes that fostering a supportive work culture and enhancing digital resource accessibility are essential for improving knowledge sharing practices. It recommends frequent seminars and workshops and the establishment of online messaging platforms to facilitate continuous knowledge exchange.

description: The transmitted light intensity (TLI) and polarized optical microscopy (POM) measurements, performed for [Mn(OS(CH3)2)6](ClO4)2 and [Zn(OS(CH3)2)6](ClO4)2 in a function of temperature, showed that only some of the phase transitions discovered earlier for these compounds by the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were now observed as anomalies on the TLI curves and as different textures in POM pictures. Mentioned above methods indicated that discovered phases of both compounds were the crystalline phases with different orientational dynamical disorder. Additionally, there was confirmed that these both compounds melt at 488 and 465 K, respectively.

HYDROGEN BONDING AND ACTIVITY ANALYSIS OF CHOLANE CLASS OF STEROID DERIVATIVES
Creators: name: Kant, Rajni
Publisher: name: European Chemical Bulletin
Year: 2015

description: Most of the crystallographic analysis that follows from structure determination involves interpretation of the molecular geometry and a working knowledge of a variety of intra- and intermolecular interactions based purely on geometrical considerations (distance and angle cut off criteria). In this paper, a total of fifty-nine structures of cholane derivatives have been chosen for the prediction of their biological activities and hydrogen bonding interaction analysis. Intermolecular interactions of the type X-H…A [X=C,O, N; A=O, Cl, N, Br] in all the  structures have been computed and discussed primarily on the basis of distance-angle scatter for better understanding of molecular packing in cholane derivatives. In some structures, bifurcated hydrogen bonds have been observed. Solute-solvent/solvent-solute interactions have also been investigated to understand more complicated processes that occur for biomolecules in aqueous solution.

description: © 2020 The Author(s). Background: Foot health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians' has not been established. Additionally, studies have shown that there is a lack of engagement of this population with general preventive foot care services. The aim of this study was to establish foot health in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people attending two recently developed, culturally safe podiatry services in rural and regional New South Wales (NSW), Australia. Secondarily the relationship between self-perceived foot health and some medical and demographic characteristics was investigated. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study included participants attending the culturally safe foot health care services managed by the University of Newcastle on the Central Coast or in Wellington, both located in NSW, Australia. At the consultation, participants completed the Foot Health Status Questionnaire (FHSQ) with the assistance of an Aboriginal health care worker, underwent basic vascular and neurological screening, and podiatric treatment. Results: A total of 111 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians (48 from the Central Coast, and 63 from Wellington) were included. FHSQ scores for pain (75.7 ± 26.8), function (80.2 ± 25.2), footwear (53.9 ± 33.4), and general foot health (62.0 ± 30.9) were generally good, but below the optimal score of 100. The presence of diabetes (n = 39 of 111 participants or 35.1%) was associated with lower levels of self-perceived foot function (r = - 0.20, n = 107, p = 0.04). Conclusion: We found that community-based foot health care services that are culturally safe are utilised by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples not currently at high risk of foot complications. This supports the use of culturally safe foot care services to improve engagement with preventative foot care. Future research should continue to be driven by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples and investigate ways to implement additional screening measures and undertake prospective evaluation of the impact of such services on health related outcomes in these communities.

CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF 2,7-DIMETHOXY-1,8-BIS(1-NAPHTHOYL)NAPHTHALENE: COOPERATIVE HYDROGEN BONDS AND THE ROLE IN THE MOLECULAR PACKING

description: The aromatic rings in 2,7-dimethoxy-1,8-bis(1-naphthoyl)naphthalene in crystal accumulate non-coplanarly to each other, with the dihedral angle between the terminal naphthalene and the 2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene rings of closer to 90˚ than the homologous compounds, 1,8-dibenzoyl-2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene and 2,7-dimethoxy-1,8-bis(2-naphthoyl)naphthalene.  Molecular packing structures of the title compound and the homologous two compounds are classified by screw-sense and orientation of molecular assembly with a two-fold screw axis.  In the title compound, right(left)-handed 21 helical assemblies are oriented in same direction and aligned to form a plane.  The plane is alternately stacked with the counter handed version.  On the other hand, right(left)-handed 21 helical assemblies are oppositely oriented to each other in the homologous two compounds.  In the right(left)-handed 21 helical assembly of the title compound, two types of effective C–H…O=C hydrogen bonds are observed, i.e., (sp3)C–H…O=C hydrogen bond and (sp2)C–H…O=C hydrogen bond.  However, either of two types of C–H…O=C hydrogen bonds is found in a right(left)-handed 21 helical assembly of the homologous two compounds.  Besides, the title compound has (sp3)C–H…O=C hydrogen bonds between the right-handed 21 helical assembly and the left-handed one, the homologous two compounds have effective pi…pi stacking interactions and (sp2)C–H…O=C hydrogen bonds.  When two types of C–H…O=C hydrogen bonds cooperatively stabilize the right(left)-handed 21 helical assembly, the helical assemblies are oriented in single direction to form a plane.  Presence of pi…pi stacking interaction between the right-handed 21 helical assembly and the counter handed one apparently mask the effect of C–H…O=C hydrogen bonds to molecular packing to block a plane composed of single-handed 21 helical assembly.

description: © 2020 Camilieri-Asch et al. Contrast-enhanced X-ray imaging provides a non-destructive and flexible approach to optimizing contrast in soft tissues, especially when incorporated with Lugol’s solution (aqueous I2KI), a technique currently referred to as diffusible iodine-based contrast-enhanced computed tomography (diceCT). This stain exhibits high rates of penetration and results in excellent contrast between and within soft tissues, including the central nervous system. Here, we present a staining method for optimizing contrast in the brain of a cartilaginous fish, the brownbanded bamboo shark, Chiloscyllium punctatum, and a bony fish, the common goldfish, Carassius auratus, usingdiceCT.Theaim of this optimization procedure is to provide suitable contrast between neural tissue and background tissue(s) of the head, thereby facilitating digital segmentation and volumetric analysis of the central nervous system. Both species were scanned before staining and were rescanned at time (T) intervals, either every 48 h (C. punctatum) or every 24 h (C. auratus), to assess stain penetration and contrast enhancement. To compare stain intensities, raw X-ray CT data were reconstructed using air and water calibration phantoms that were scanned under identical conditions to the samples. Optimal contrast across the brain was achieved at T = 240 h for C. punctatum and T=96 h for C. auratus. Higher resolution scans of the whole brain were obtained at the two optimized staining times for all the corresponding specimens. The use of diceCT provides a new and valuable tool for visualizing differences in the anatomic organization of both the central and peripheral nervous systems of fish.
