description: Background: Geospatial technology has facilitated the discovery of disease distributions and etiology and helped target prevention programs. Globally, gastric cancer is the leading infection-associated cancer, and third leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide, with marked geographic variation. Central and South America have a significant burden, particularly in the mountainous regions. In the context of an ongoing population-based case-control study in Central America, our aim was to examine the spatial epidemiology of gastric cancer subtypes and H. pylori virulence factors. Methods: Patients diagnosed with gastric cancer from 2002 to 2013 in western Honduras were identified in the prospective gastric cancer registry at the principal district hospital. Diagnosis was based on endoscopy and confirmatory histopathology. Geospatial methods were applied using the ArcGIS v10.3.1 and SaTScan v9.4.2 platforms to examine regional distributions of the gastric cancer histologic subtypes (Lauren classification), and the H. pylori CagA virulence factor. Getis-Ord-Gi hot spot and Discrete Poisson SaTScan statistics, respectively, were used to explore spatial clustering at the village level (30-50 rural households), with standardization by each village's population. H. pylori and CagA serologic status was determined using the novel H. pylori multiplex assay (DKFZ, Germany). Results: Three hundred seventy-eight incident cases met the inclusion criteria (mean age 63.7, male 66.3%). Areas of higher gastric cancer incidence were identified. Significant spatial clustering of diffuse histology adenocarcinoma was revealed both by the Getis-Ord-GI∗hot spot analysis (P-value < 0.0015; range 0.00003-0.0014; 99%CI), and by the SaTScan statistic (P-value < 0.006; range 0.0026-0.0054). The intestinal subtype was randomly distributed. H. pylori CagA had significant spatial clustering only in association with the diffuse histology cancer hot spot (Getis-Ord-Gi∗P value ≤0.001; range 0.0001-0.0010; SaTScan statistic P value 0.0085). In the diffuse gastric cancer hot spot, the lowest age quartile range was 21-46 years, significantly lower than the intestinal cancers (P = 0.024). Conclusions: Geospatial methods have identified a significant cluster of incident diffuse type adenocarcinoma cases in rural Central America, suggest of a germline genetic association. Further genomic and geospatial analyses to identify potential spatial patterns of genetic, bacterial, and environmental risk factors may be informative.

description: The experiment was conducted to determine optimum plant spacing and suitable variety and as well as to identify the interaction effect of varieties and Intra-row spacing on the yield of sorghum. The experiment having a factorial arrangement of three varieties (Geremew, Lalo and farmer’s local variety) and three intra-row levels (10 cm, 15 cm and 20 cm) was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. According to the current results, varieties were significantly (p<0.05) affected by all the parameters (days to maturity, plant height, panicle length, thousand seed weight and total grain yield) except stand count. The maximum days to maturity and total grain yield (205.2 days and 5628.1 kg ha-1 respectively) were obtained from Lalo. The highest thousand seed weight (23.1 g) was recorded from Geremew and at it takes a short period for maturity (119.5 days). Similarly, intra-row spacing significantly (p<0.05) affected the panicle length and stand count. The highest panicle length (28.15 cm) was recorded in 15 cm intra-row spaced plants. The maximum stand count (78.6 % and 83.6%) was obtained from 15 cm and 20 cm spaced plants respectively. Generally, the outcome of this study revealed that even though the yield was statistically non-significant to intra-raw spacing, at 15cm and 20cm the grain yield was a maximum of 4178.5 kg ha-1 and 4190.9 kg ha-1, respectively. Therefore, among the intra-row spacing 20 cm intra-row spacing for its minimized planting materials (seed) and easy management and among the varieties, Lalo could be promoted in study areas and similar agro-ecologies.
On the properties of the vacuum expectation value in $R_{ξ}$ gauge and $\overline{R_{ξ}}$ gauge

description: We have investigated the gauge dependence of the vacuum expectation value(VEV) both in the $R_{ξ}$ and the $\overline{R_{ξ}}$ gauge in the $\overline{MS}$ scheme. We have found that, in case of the $R_{ξ}$ gauge, the gauge dependence of the VEV should be modified due to the presence of the parameter in the gauge function that should be identified as a VEV in the broken symmetry phase. However the pole mass remains gauge independent.

description: The aim of the experiment was to determine the correlations between tuber yield and yield components and to measure the direct and indirect effects of yield components on tuber yield of potato genotypes. The experiment was conducted using eleven potato genotypes with one standard check variety (Belete) and a local check at Kulumsa Agricultural Research Center, Bekoji sub-station during 2020-2021. Data were collected for tuber yield, tuber dry matter content (%), plant height (cm), stem number, specific gravity, and phenological parameters. Since the two seasons had heterogeneous error variance, analysis was carried out separately. In 2020, correlation analysis indicated that the tuber yield was positively and significantly associated with stem height (0.608), marketable tuber (0.997) and positively associated with tuber dry matter content, stem number per plant, days to maturity, while it was negatively correlated with specific gravity, days to emergence and days to flowering at the genotypic level. Total tuber yield was positively and significantly correlated with days to maturity (0.640), stem height (0.791), marketable tuber (0.977) and stem number at the genotypic level. While specific gravity was positively and significantly correlated at the phenotypic level; and negatively at the genotypic level in the second season. Results of path analyses indicated that marketable tubers had the highest positive direct effect (+1.059) on total tuber yield followed by days to flowering (+0.057) and specific gravity (+0.026) in 2020 while marketable tuber (0.7107), stem height (0.2842), tuber dry matter content (0.0078), days to maturity (0.1250) had also positive direct effect in 2021. In addition, most of the indirect effects of yield components on tuber yield were significant and positive. Significant effects of marketable tuber, tuber dry matter content, days to maturity and stem height on total tuber yield, indicated that they could be used as the criteria for potato improvement and breeding programs.

description: In Switzerland, the introduction of the prescription 1g tablet (in addition to the common 500mg tablet) of paracetamol led to significantly more hospital admissions due to unintentional overdoses. A change in dosage is just one of the many causes of the increased risk of unintentional paracetamol overdoses in consumers. The question is, can visually presented warnings in the sense of reference information enhance consumers' accuracy in assessing medication dosage. To investigate this, participants (N = 330) in an online study were presented with a fictitious medication package containing 1g or 500mg paracetamol tablets (factor: dosage) and with no or a a visual reference illustrating the correct dosage for adults (factor: reference). Participants then had to indicate, among other things, the maximum daily dosage in tablets, with the possibility of adjustment after consulting a package insert (factor: pre/post package insert consultation). Significant main effects were observed for the between-subject factors dosage and reference (both p’s < .001), with participants exposed to the 1g paracetamol dosage and the visual reference indicating significantly higher maximum daily dosages. The within-subject effect of package insert consultation was also significant (p < .05), indicating adjustments of participants’ answers after package insert consultation. The significant dosage x pre/post package insert consultation interaction for the adult reference group, for example, shows that the 1g group adjusts their assessments less than the 500mg group. Hence, contrary to expectations, the provision of a visual reference did not improve dosage assessment accuracy. Furthermore, participants prescribed with 1g paracetamol dosage consistently indicated excessively high maximum daily dosages, even after consulting the package insert. These findings show the importance of exploring alternative strategies to enhance consumer awareness and mitigate the risk of medication overdose.

description: Multilevel models have long been used by health geographers working on questions of space, place, and health. Similarly, health geographers have pursued interests in determining whether or not the effect of an exposure on a health outcome varies spatially. However, relatively little work has sought to use multilevel models to explore spatial variability in the effects of a contextual exposure on a health outcome. Methodologically, extending multilevel models to allow intercepts and slopes to vary spatially is straightforward. The purpose of this paper, therefore, is to show how multilevel spatial models can be extended to include spatially varying covariate effects. We provide an empirical example on the effect of agriculture on malaria risk in children under 5 years of age in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

description: BACKGROUND: Although styrene is an established neurotoxicant at occupational exposure levels, its neurotoxicity has not been characterized in relation to general population exposures. Further, occupational research to date has focused on central nervous system impairment. OBJECTIVE: We assessed styrene-associated differences in sensory and motor function among Gulf coast residents. METHODS: We used 2011 National Air Toxics Assessment estimates of ambient styrene to determine exposure levels for 2,956 nondiabetic Gulf state residents enrolled in the Gulf Long-term Follow-up Study, and additionally measured blood styrene concentration in a subset of participants 1 to 2 y after enrollment (n = 310). Participants completed an enrollment telephone interview and a comprehensive test battery to assess sensory and motor function during a clinical follow-up exam 2 to 4 y later. Detailed covariate information was ascertained at enrollment via telephone interview. We used multivariate linear regression to estimate continuous differences in sensory and motor function, and log-binomial regression to estimate prevalence ratios for dichotomous outcomes. We estimated associations of both ambient and blood styrene exposures with sensory and motor function, independently for five unique tests. RESULTS: Those participants in the highest 25% vs. lowest 75% of ambient exposure and those in the highest 10% vs. lowest 90% of blood styrene had slightly diminished visual contrast sensitivity. Mean vibrotactile thresholds were lower among those in the highest vs. lowest quartile of ambient styrene and the highest 10% vs. lowest 90% of blood styrene (−0:13 log microns; 95% CI: −0:23, −0:03 and −0:39 log microns; 95% CI: −0:72, −0:05, respectively). The highest vs. lowest quartile of ambient styrene was associated with significantly poorer postural stability, and (unexpectedly) with significantly greater grip strength. DISCUSSION: We observed associations between higher styrene exposure and poorer visual, sensory, and vestibular function, though we did not detect associations with reduced voluntary motor system performance. Associations were more consistent for ambient exposures, but we also found notable associations with measured blood styrene.

description: Kinder und Jugendliche wachsen in einer reichhaltigen und sich rasant verändernden Medienwelt auf. Erziehungsverantwortliche fühlen sich dabei oft verunsichert oder überfordert – berechtigterweise fragen sie sich: Wie viel Medienzeit in welchem Alter ist vernünftig und wo liegen die Chancen und Risiken digitaler Medien? Manche Eltern würden sich wünschen, ihre Kinder vor medialen Einflüssen abschirmen zu können. Das ist weder möglich noch sinnvoll, denn Medien bieten vielfältige Entwicklungs- und Lernchancen. Zudem sollen Kinder und Jugendliche dazu befähigt werden, sich sicher in den medialen Welten bewegen zu können und zwischen direkt erlebten und medienvermittelten Erfahrungen eine Balance zu finden. Kurz: Es ist wichtig, dass Heranwachsende sich Medienkompetenz aneignen.
Der vorliegende Leitfaden «Medienkompetenz» beantwortet häufig gestellte Fragen rund um das Thema Jugend und digitale Medien. Er bietet Orientierung und möchte Eltern ermutigen, Kinder und Jugendliche im Umgang mit digitalen Medien aktiv zu begleiten. Dass es in diesem Prozess zu Auseinandersetzungen kommt, ist normal und Voraussetzung für ein gegenseitiges und gemeinsames Lernen. Erziehungsverantwortliche, die diese Herausforderung annehmen, den Konflikt nicht scheuen und ein offenes Ohr für Erlebnisse der Kinder in digitalen Welten haben, sind auf dem richtigen Weg. Selbst wenn sie möglicherweise technisch weniger verstehen als ihre Kinder oder sich weniger geschickt im virtuellen Raum bewegen.

description: Compact, medium size, white to creamy cauliflower curds were packed into different packaging techniques like i. without packaging (control); ii. packed in low density polyethylene (LDPE) bag with 1% perforation; iii. wrapped with polyethylene (PE) cling film and iv. newspaper (locally used). Half of each treatment was kept at (6±1°C and 50±5% RH) and the other half was kept at ambient conditions (25±3°C and 60±5% RH). LDPE bag or PE cling film has a great effect to retain firmness and reduce weight loss of cauliflower in both storage conditions. Respiration rate, rot incidence and changes of colour values (lightness and hue angle) was reduced significantly for the cauliflowers packed in LDPE bag or wrapped with PE cling film stored in a refrigerator than that of control (without packaging) and all packaging techniques stored at ambient condition throughout the storage period. Initially, acidity, TSS and ascorbic acid content were 0.26%, 4.7° Brix and 58.7 mg 100g-1, respectively. Ascorbic acid content was reduced severely in the cauliflower stored in ambient conditions than that stored in a refrigerator. Cauliflower wrapped with PE cling film and packed in an LDPE bag (1% perforation) stored in a refrigerator (6±1°C and 50±5% RH) could retain white colour, good sensory quality, firm and fresh curds with minimum loss in weight, texture and disease incidence up to 18 days and 16 days, respectively.

description: Einleitung: Der Pflege(fach)kräftemangel ist seit Jahren ein weltweites Problem. Es wird geschätzt, dass allein in der Schweiz 2030 bis zu 20’000 Pflege(fach)personen fehlen werden. Gleichzeitig ist die Berichterstattung über den Pflegeberuf in den Medien realitätsfern. Diese Realitätsferne spiegelt sich auch in der Darstellungen in Medical Dramas wider, welche eine Millionenreichweite haben.
Fragestellung: Wie wird der pflegerische Beruf in aktuellen Medical Dramas dargestellt und wie wird dies von der Öffentlichkeit wahrgenommen?
Methode: Für diese Arbeit wurde ein themengeleiteter Ansatz gewählt. Eine systematische Literaturrecherche und -analyse wurden durchgeführt. Zusätzlich wurde eine Analyse von der Darstellung der Pflege(fach)personen in den aktuellen Staffeln von Grey’s Anatomy, The Resident und Chicago Med durchgeführt.
Ergebnisse: Die Darstellung in Medical Dramas ist von Stereotypen geprägt und wirkt sich negativ auf das Image des Berufes und der Pflege(fach)personen aus. Zusätzlich hindert es potenzielle Pflege(fach)personen daran, den Beruf zu wählen.
Schlussfolgerung: Es muss für mehr Sichtbarkeit für den Pflegeberuf und die ihn ausübenden Pflege(fach)kräfte gesorgt werden. Gleichzeitig muss der Beruf zur Steigerung des Prestiges attraktiver für Männer gemacht werden.

description: We investigate the stability of an inhomogeneous chiral condensed phase against low energy fluctuations about a spatially modulated order parameter. This phase corresponds to the so-called dual chiral density wave in the context of quark matter, where the chiral condensate is spatially modulated with a finite wavevector in a single direction. From the symmetry viewpoint, the phase realizes a locking of flavor and translational symmetries. Starting with a Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson effective Lagrangian, we find that the associated Nambu-Goldstone modes, whose dispersion relations are spatially anisotropic and soft in the direction normal to the wavevector of the modulation, wash out the long-range order at finite temperatures, but support algebraically decaying long-range correlations. This implies that the phase can exhibit a quasi-one-dimensional order as in liquid crystals.

description: The objective of this paper is to determine whether deep tubewells installed through arsenic mitigation efforts in rural Bangladesh provide better drinking water microbial quality compared to shallow tubewells. We conducted a stratified random cross-sectional survey of 484 households to assess microbial contamination of deep tubewell water at source and at point of use (POU) compared to shallow tubewell water using the Compartment Bag Test. In addition, we measured storage time, distance, travel time and ownership status among both sets of users to assess deep tubewell efficacy and under what conditions they offer poorer or better water quality. Differences in tubewell characteristics were compared using non-parametric Mann-Whitney U tests and two-proportion Z-tests. Prevalence ratios of microbial contamination stratified by water quality, storage time and distance to tubewells and ownership were estimated using unadjusted Mantel-Haenszel tests. There was no significant difference in microbial contamination between shallow and deep tubewells at source. The presence of POU water microbial contamination in storage containers in deep tubewell households was 1.11 times the prevalence in shallow tubewell storage containers (95% CI = 0.97–1.27). Deep tubewell users stored water longer and walked significantly farther to obtain water compared to shallow tubewell users. Among deep tubewell households, those residing farther away from the source were 1.24 times as likely to drink contaminated water from storage containers compared to those located nearby (95% CI = 1.04–1.48). Our findings suggest that deep tubewells have comparable water quality to shallow tubewells at source, but increasing distance from the household exacerbates risk of microbial contamination at POU.

Relevante Ergebnisse: Aus den vier Studien des Erlebens der Angehörigen ergaben sich folgende Hauptthemen: zeitnahe und wahrheitsgetreue Informationen sowie emotionale Unterstützung und Vertrauen in die Pflegefachpersonen. Die Hauptergebnisse des Erlebens der Pflege sind: zusätzlicher Stress, strukturelle und emotionale Herausforderungen.
Schlussfolgerung: Für einen gelungenen Umgang mit den Angehörigen ist eine familienunterstützende Person, welche nicht direkt in den Reanimationsprozess miteingebunden ist, von hoher Bedeutung. Weiter können institutionsinterne Richtlinien sowie Schulungen für die Pflege in dieser herausfordernden Situation unterstützen.

description: Bed nets averted 68% of malaria cases in Africa between 2000 and 2015. However, concerns over insecticide resistance, bed net durability and the effectiveness of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLIN) are growing. To assess the effectiveness of LLINs of different ages and insecticides against malaria, we conducted a population-based, cross-sectional study using data from 162,963 children younger than 5 years of age participating in 33 Demographic and Health and Malaria Indicator Surveys conducted in 21 countries between 2009 and 2016. We used Bayesian logistic regression to estimate associations between LLIN age, insecticide type, and malaria. Children sleeping under LLINs the previous night experienced 21% lower odds of malaria infection than children who did not (odds ratio [OR] 0.79; 95% Uncertainty Interval [UI] 0.76–0.82). Nets less than one year of age exhibited the strongest protective effect (OR 0.75; 95% UI 0.72–0.79), and protection weakened as net age increased. LLINs containing different insecticides exhibited similar protection (ORdeltamethrin 0.78 [0.75–0.82]; ORpermethrin 0.79 [0.75–0.83]; ORalphacypermethrin 0.85 [0.76–0.94]). Freely-available, population-based surveys can enhance and guide current entomological monitoring amid concerns of insecticide resistance and bed net durability, and be used with locally-collected data to support decisions on LLIN redistribution campaign timing which insecticide to use.

From the Physics to the Computational Complexity of Multiboson Correlation Interference
Creators: name: Laibacher, Simon

description: We demonstrate how the physics of multiboson correlation interference leads to the computational complexity of linear optical interferometers based on correlation measurements in the degrees of freedom of the input bosons. In particular, we address the task of MultiBoson Correlation Sampling (MBCS) from the probability distribution associated with polarization- and time-resolved detections at the output of random linear optical networks. We show that the MBCS problem is fundamentally hard to solve classically even for nonidentical input photons, regardless of the color of the photons, making it also very appealing from an experimental point of view. These results fully manifest the quantum computational supremacy inherent to the fundamental nature of quantum interference.

description: We identify high risk clusters and measure their persistence in time and analyze spatial and population drivers of small area incidence over time. The geographically linked population and cholera surveillance data in Matlab, Bangladesh for a 10-year period were used. Individual level data were aggregated by local 250 × 250 m communities. A retrospective space-time scan statistic was applied to detect high risk clusters. Generalized estimating equations were used to identify risk factors for cholera. We identified 10 high risk clusters, the largest of which was in the southern part of the study area where a smaller river flows into a large river. There is persistence of local spatial patterns of cholera and the patterns are related to both the population composition and ongoing spatial diffusion from nearby areas over time. This information suggests that targeting interventions to high risk areas would help eliminate locally persistent endemic areas.

description: A magnetic model for low/hard state (LHS) of black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs),H1743-322 and GX 339-4, is proposed based on the transportation of magnetic field from a companion into an accretion disk around a black hole (BH). This model consists of a truncated thin disk with an inner advection-dominated accretion flow (ADAF). The spectral profiles of the sources are fitted in agreement with the data observed at four different dates corresponding to the rising phase of the LHS. In addition, the association of the LHS with quasi-steady jet is modelled based on transportation of magnetic field, where the Blandford-Znajek (BZ) and Blandford-Payne (BP) processes are invoked to drive the jets from BH and inner ADAF. It turns out that the steep radio/X-ray correlations observed in H1743-322 and GX 339-4 can be interpreted based on our model.

description: Einleitung: Die Prävalenz von Mobbing unter Pflegefachpersonen variiert weltweit, wobei europäische Länder im Vergleich zu Amerika und Australien niedrigere Prävalenzraten aufweisen. Mobbing, insbesondere verbales Mobbing, wirkt sich nicht nur auf die Betroffenen durch physische und psychische Symptome aus, sondern belastet auch das Gesundheitssystem durch erhöhte Kosten und Qualitätsverluste.
Fragestellung: «Wie können Pflegefachpersonen auf FH-Niveau Einfluss nehmen auf Mobbing unter Pflegenden im Akutspital?»
Methode: In den Datenbanken Pubmed und CINAHL Complete wurde eine systematisierte Literaturrecherche durchgeführt. Es wurden vier Studien und zwei Reviews miteinbezogen, zusammengefasst und kritisch gewürdigt.
Ergebnisse: Mobbing im Pflegebereich tritt in verschiedenen Formen auf und betrifft Männer und Frauen gleichermassen. Die Auswirkungen von Mobbing betreffen nicht nur die Betroffenen selbst, sondern auch die Familien und die Gesundheitsorganisationen durch erhöhte Kosten und Personalfluktuation. Zu den Risikofaktoren für Mobbing gehören Stress, Machtungleichgewichte und Rollenkonflikte.
Schlussfolgerung: Die Erfassung von Mobbing am Arbeitsplatz ist aufgrund subjektiver Wahrnehmungen und unterschiedlicher Definitionen schwierig. Dennoch liegt es im Interesse aller Gesundheitsberufe, interprofessionelle Probleme frühzeitig anzusprechen und präventive Massnahmen wie Rollenklärung und regelmässige Fortbildung umzusetzen, um Mobbing zu bekämpfen und Schaden von Pflegenden und Patientinnen abzuwenden.

description: the weighted country-wide prevalence of HCV viremia was 0.9% (95% CI, 0.3%-1.6%) among adults ≥40 years of age and 0.7% (95% CI,.6%-.8%) among human immunodeficiency virus-infected subjects. All successfully genotyped cases were due to genotype 4 infection. Conclusions DBS-based HCV testing represents a useful tool for the diagnosis and surveillance of HCV viremia and can easily be incorporated into specimen referral systems. Among adults ≥40 years of age in the DRC, 100000-200000 may have active infection and be eligible for treatment.
description: Background Efficient viral load testing is needed for hepatitis C (HCV) surveillance and diagnosis. HCV viral load testing using dried blood spots (DBSs), made with a single drop of finger-prick whole blood on filter paper, is a promising alternative to traditional serum-or plasma-based approaches. Methods We adapted the Abbott Molecular m2000 instrument for high-Throughput HCV viremia testing using DBSs with simple specimen processing and applied these methods to estimate the national burden of infection in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). We tested DBSs collected during the 2013-2014 DRC Demographic and Health Survey, including 1309 adults ≥40 years of age. HCV-positive samples underwent targeted sequencing, genotyping, and phylogenetic analyses. Results This high-Throughput screening approach reliably identified HCV RNA extracted from DBSs prepared using whole blood, with a 95% limit of detection of 1196 (95% confidence interval [CI], 866-2280) IU/mL for individual 6-mm punches and 494 (95% CI, 372-1228) IU/mL for larger 12-mm punches. Fifteen infections were identified among samples from the DRC Demographic and Health Survey
