description: Classical solutions describing charged dilaton black holes accelerating in a background magnetic field have recently been found. They include the Ernst metric of the Einstein-Maxwell theory as a special case. We study the extremal limit of these solutions in detail, both at the classical and quantum levels. It is shown that near the event horizon, the extremal solutions reduce precisely to the static extremal black hole solutions. For a particular value of the dilaton coupling, these extremal black holes are five dimensional Kaluza-Klein monopoles. The euclidean sections of these solutions can be interpreted as instantons describing the pair creation of extremal black holes/Kaluza-Klein monopoles in a magnetic field. The action of these instantons is calculated and found to agree with the Schwinger result in the weak field limit. For the euclidean Ernst solution, the action for the extremal solution differs from that of the previously discussed wormhole instanton by the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. However, in many cases quantum corrections become large in the vicinity of the black hole, and the precise description of the creation process is unknown.

description: We report a surprisingly long spin relaxation time of electrons in Mn-doped p-GaAs. The spin relaxation time scales with the optical pumping and increases from 12 ns in the dark to 160 ns upon saturation. This behavior is associated with the difference in spin relaxation rates of electrons precessing in the fluctuating fields of ionized or neutral Mn acceptors, respectively. For the latter the antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between a Mn ion and a bound hole results in a partial compensation of these fluctuating fields, leading to the enhanced spin memory.

description: Using an extensive sample of nearby galaxies (the Nearby Galaxies Catalog, by Tully), we investigate the environment of the galaxies hosting low-luminosity AGNs (Seyferts and LINERs). We define the local galaxy density, adopting a new correction for the incompleteness of the galaxy sample at large distances. We consider both a complete sample of bright and nearby AGNs, identified from the nuclear spectra obtained in available wide optical spectroscopic surveys, and a complete sample of nearby Seyferts. Basically, we compare the local galaxy density distributions of the AGNs with those of non-AGN samples, chosen in order to match the magnitude and morphological type distributions of the AGN samples. We find, only for the early-type spirals more luminous than $\sim M^*$, that both LINERs and Seyferts tend to reside in denser environments on all the scales tested, from tenths of Mpc to a few Mpc; moreover Seyferts show an enhanced small-scale density segregation with respect to LINERs. This gives support to the idea that AGNs can be stimulated by interactions. On larger scales, tens of Mpc, we find that the AGNs hosted in luminous early-type spirals show a tendency to stay near the center of the Local Supercluster. Finally we discuss the interpretations of our findings and their consequences for some possible scenarios of AGN formation and evolution and for the problem of how AGNs trace the large-scale structures.

description: Because of increasing human population and their food need the agricultural production increases, too. But meanwhile artificial fertilizer using and their negative effects to ecosystem are rising day by day. So, the scientist research different alternative solution for this pollution such as eco-friendly biofertilizer.Group of Cyanobacteria consists of photosynthetic prokaryotic microorganisms that has a highly diversity. Cyanobacteria can produce different metabolites that are valuable economically such as amino acids, proteins, vitamins etc. This study focuses the effects of different concentrations of Spirulina platensis (Gomont) Geitler extracts on the germination of lettuce seeds. For this purpose, root-stem length, lateral root number and wet-dry weight were investigated. The application of S5 (100% cell extract) showed an inhibitory effect on seed germination and so other parameters could not be measured. S2 (25% cell extract) and S3 (50% cell extract) applications had a positive effect on germination and seedling development in lettuce. As a result; cyanobacterial extract has positive effects on seed germination and plant growth-development and it is possible to produce a commercial and ecological biostimulant by developing different extract concentrations. And this biostimulant may be used instead of the other ecologically harmful artificial fertilizer. By the way; the large amount money that spends for the artificial fertilizer will be brought to the economy of Turkey.

description: The thermal resistance between a nanostructure and a half-body is calculated in the framework of particle-phonons physics. The current models approximate the nanostructure as a thermal bath. We prove that the multireflections of heat carriers in the nanostructure significantly increase resistance in contradiction with former predictions. This increase depends on the shape of the nanostructure and the heat carriers mean free path only. We provide a general and simple expression for the contact resistance and examine the specific cases of nanowires and nanoparticles.

description: The concerns about agricultural productivity and its impact on the economy have been a recurring decimal within the sub-Saharan African terrain, given the abysmally low yields of most agricultural enterprises relative to best practice. Even though the continent witnessed some growth recently, it is unclear if these can be attributed to agricultural productivity, particularly in the crop sub-sector, thus suggesting the need for a robust tool in unearthing this fact. Using Nigeria as a case study, this research explored the impact of total factor productivity shocks on crops and those of associated variables on the Nigeria economy. The study employed the computable general equilibrium (CGE) approach based on the current Nigeria’s social accounting matrix. The result showed that total factor productivity (TFP) impacted positively on numerous macroeconomic indices of the economy, comprising absorption, gross domestic product, export sales, labour supply and incomes, including institutional incomes of households across the various quintile categorizations. The results suggest that implementation of 7.23% TFP growth rate, reflective of the agriculture sector growth rate projected under the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (2017-2020), 50% subsidy as operational under the on-going growth enhancement support scheme and adherence to 10 % funding of the agriculture sector as prescribed by the Maputo declaration, will to some extent, support the achievements Nigeria’s development outcomes, particularly, institutional incomes, in line with its Economic Recovery and Growth Enhancement Plan (2017-2020). However, there is the need to change the direction of subsidy from agro-input support to projects with public good characteristics and for local fertilizer manufacturing, given the need to improve public investments in the agriculture sector and inevitably, the prospect for innovative private investments.

Publisher: name: Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: In the writer’s organization, the analysis of the incident reports and sentinel events occurrence in the cardiovascular intensive care unit CSICU revealed that; handoff communication was the contributing factor for around 30% of the total incidents. Effective communication among nurses is imperative to ensure patient safety and deliver high quality of care; furthermore, the aim of the handoff process is to achieve effective, safe, and high quality communication when the responsibility for patient care is transferred from one nurse to another. This improvement project was implemented in CSICU; it was concerned with improving the handoff communication among nurses as a step to improve the quality of care provided, and impacts the patient safety through mitigating the omission of vital information that may result from ineffective handoff. Literature review showed that data obtained by joint commission international accreditation JCIA in their review of reported sentinel events indicated that the communication was the root cause of 65% to 70% of sentinel events occurrence. However, this project used the HSE change model (initiation, planning, implementation, mainstreaming). The improvement team formulated an SBAR based handoff form to standardize the handoff process during the end of shift report ,the project evaluation results showed a declining in the percentages of the handoff related incidents and improves the nurses satisfaction.
Implementation of a Pressure Ulcer Prevention Protocol in a Coronary Care Unit

description: Healthcare clinicians perceive care standardization as a requirement. Hospital Acquired Pressure Ulcers (HAPU) is a leading cause of preventable harm. It is associated with a significant increase in treatment cost, length of stay, and poor patients’ satisfaction. This project applies the principle of care processes standardization via developing and implementing evidence based Pressure Ulcer Prevention Protocol (PUPP). A comprehensive process starts on admission and continues throughout the course of hospitalization in the Coronary Care Unit (CCU). Patients are risk adjusted using the Braden assessment scale to segregate patients who need rigorous Pressure Ulcer (PU) preventive interventions from those who require standard preventive measures. Quality improvement tools and frameworks are integrated into Senior & Swailes organizational development model to implement the project. Measurement and evaluation include patients’ outcomes, performance measurement, and evaluation of barriers to care processes standardization. The PUPP integrates change management and quality improvement tools and frameworks. The results of the first quarter of 2014 revealed one confirmed PU with a significant drop in the reported adverse events relevant to PUs. However, the decline in the number of reported events may be attributed to the introduction of new ‘safety reporting system’ (SRS). The project has several limitations; the evaluation period is too short for the outcomes to materialize. Furthermore, accurate measurement of PUs requires more specific measurement tools such as ‘trigger tool.' Barriers to care standardization include lack of awareness of the care sets, as well as diverse patients’ preferences.

description: We present a general method to deform the inhomogeneous algebras of the $B_n,C_n,D_n$ type, and find the corresponding bicovariant differential calculus. The method is based on a projection from $B_{n+1}, C_{n+1}, D_{n+1}$. For example we obtain the (bicovariant) inhomogeneous $q$-algebra $ISO_q(N)$ as a consistent projection of the (bicovariant) $q$-algebra $SO_q(N+2)$. This projection works for particular multiparametric deformations of $SO(N+2)$, the so-called ``minimal" deformations. The case of $ISO_q(4)$ is studied in detail: a real form corresponding to a Lorentz signature exists only for one of the minimal deformations, depending on one parameter $q$. The quantum Poincaré Lie algebra is given explicitly: it has 10 generators (no dilatations) and contains the {\sl classical} Lorentz algebra. Only the commutation relations involving the momenta depend on $q$. Finally, we discuss a $q$-deformation of gravity based on the ``gauging" of this $q$-Poincaré algebra: the lagrangian generalizes the usual Einstein-Cartan lagrangian.

description: We present high spatial resolution spectroscopic measurements of dynamic fibrils (DFs) in the Ca {\small{II}} 8662 Å line. These data show clear Doppler shifts in the identified DFs, which demonstrates that at least a subset of DFs are actual mass motions in the chromosphere. A statistical analysis of 26 DFs reveals a strong and statistically significant correlation between the maximal velocity and the deceleration. The range of the velocities and the decelerations are substantially lower, about a factor two, in our spectroscopic observations compared to the earlier results based on proper motion in narrow band images. There are fundamental differences in the different observational methods; when DFs are observed spectroscopically the measured Doppler shifts are a result of the atmospheric velocity, weighted with the response function to velocity over an extended height. When the proper motion of DFs is observed in narrow band images, the movement of the top of the DF is observed. This point is sharply defined because of the high contrast between the DF and the surroundings. The observational differences between the two methods are examined by several numerical experiments using both numerical simulations and a time series of narrow band H$α$ images. With basis in the simulations we conclude that the lower maximal velocity is explained by the low formation height of the Ca IR line. We conclude that the present observations support the earlier result that DFs are driven by magneto-acoustic shocks exited by convective flows and p-modes.

description: The widespread popularity of smart meters enables an immense amount of fine-grained electricity consumption data to be collected. Meanwhile, the deregulation of the power industry, particularly on the delivery side, has continuously been moving forward worldwide. How to employ massive smart meter data to promote and enhance the efficiency and sustainability of the power grid is a pressing issue. To date, substantial works have been conducted on smart meter data analytics. To provide a comprehensive overview of the current research and to identify challenges for future research, this paper conducts an application-oriented review of smart meter data analytics. Following the three stages of analytics, namely, descriptive, predictive and prescriptive analytics, we identify the key application areas as load analysis, load forecasting, and load management. We also review the techniques and methodologies adopted or developed to address each application. In addition, we also discuss some research trends, such as big data issues, novel machine learning technologies, new business models, the transition of energy systems, and data privacy and security.

description: Background: Chronic wounds effect millions of people globally. It is a debilitating condition that diminishes health related quality of life. Wound bed preparation is necessary for wound healing. In order for some wounds to heal, debridement plays an important role. Larvae therapy is one form of debridement, which will be the main focus of this systematic review. Aim & Objectives: To explore the literature pertaining to the use of larvae therapy in chronic wounds to determine its impact on debridement. Selection Criteria: This systematic review included studies in English, randomised control trials, clinical control trials, comparative studies, retrospective studies, prospective studies and systematic reviews. The chronic wounds included in the review were pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers and leg ulcers. Data Collection & Analysis: Studies that fit the inclusion criteria were included in this review. Data analysis were completed in narrative form. The PRISMA statement was used for synthesising the systematic review included in this study. Main Results: After completing a systematic research of the literature, 14 studies were included in this review. The main primary outcome was rate of debridement of a chronic wound. Secondary outcomes included healing rate, pain, health related quality of life and acceptability of larvae therapy. Conclusion: The overall results show that larvae debridement therapy is an effective, safe and fast method of debridement in chronic wounds.

description: Fireballs are an essential part of any cosmological $γ$-ray burst. We drive here a stability criterion for fireballs and show that fireballs are Rayleigh-Taylor unstable in any region in which the entropy decreases outward. The instability begins to operate when the fireball becomes matter dominated. Among the possible implication of the instability are: (i) Conversion of a fraction of the radiation energy to a convective energy expressed in the motion of bubbles relative to each other. (ii) Penetration of fast bubbles through slower ones and creation of high $γ$ regimes which are essential for efficient conversion of the energy to $γ$-rays. (iii) Formation of rapid variation (of the scale of the bubbles) in the observed $γ$-rays.

description: Background: The management of unscheduled patients presenting to an operating theatre poses a major obstacle for service planning and provision. The ability to schedule these cases during rostered working hours, where possible, is safer for the patient1 and a more efficient use of theatre, staff and hospital resources2. Aim: The aim of this project was to introduce a structured booking form to enhance workflow patterns from point of booking until transition to the operating theatre for unscheduled patients. Methods: The project was conducted among the theatre staff and stakeholders of a level two hospital in the west of Ireland over a two month between January and February 2014. Focus groups were employed to identify barriers to change. The author employed SWOT and force field anlaysis to determine a strategy for change. A structured booking form was designed for theatre and endoscopy. The change process was delivered using Kotters change model facilitated by action learning sets. Ethical approval was granted to conduct this study. Results: Over the two month period that the study was conducted there was a 52% reduction in procedures performed out of hours for January when compared to the same period the year before. Similarly, there was a 17% reduction for the month of February when compared with same month the year before. Post introduction of the booking form the minimum time taken to schedule an unscheduled patient was 5 minutes and maximum time spent was 7 minutes (a net reduction ranging from 74% – 82.5% in the time taken prior to the introduction of the booking form. If time saved during the booking process was transferred into increased theatre utilisation, this would translate to a potential cost saving ranging between €124,050 – €240,900; assuming every unproductive theatre hour costs €1500 under the productive operating theatre Conclusions: This study has shown that unscheduled patients presenting to theatre can be scheduled in an efficient and effective manner. A structured booking process can translate into considerable cost savings where this results in increased resource utilisation.

description: This paper outlines the mechanisms used to position the offspring of slave women and white men at various points within late nineteenth-century Cuba’s racial hierarchy. The reproductive choices available to these parents allowed for small, but significant, transformations to the existing patterns of race and challenged the social separation that typically under girded African slavery in the Americas. As white men mated with black and mulatta women, they were critical agents in the initial determination of their children’s status–as slave, free, mulatto, or even white. This definitional flexibility fostered an unintended corruption of the very meaning of whiteness. Similarly, through mating with white men, enslaved women exercised a degree of procreative choice, despite their subjugated condition. In acknowledging the range of rape, concubinage, and marriage exercised between slave women and white men, this paper highlights the important links between reproductive practices and the social construction of race.

We argue that fermions coupled to the scalar field of the string can also make the string stable and discuss the physical case where the string is coupled to quarks and leptons. This stabilization mechanism is expected to work for other embedded defects and also for unstable solutions such as the sphaleron.

description: Monosubstituted nitrotoluenes serve as important model compounds for nitroaromatic energetic molecules such as trinitrotoluene. This work investigates the ultrafast nuclear dynamics of 3- and 4-nitrotoluene radical cations using femtosecond pump-probe measurements and the results of density functional theory calculations. Strong-field adiabatic ionization of 3- and 4-nitrotoluene using 1500 nm, 18 fs pulses produces radical cations in the ground electronic state with distinct coherent vibrational excitations. In both nitrotoluene isomers, a one-photon excitation with the probe pulse results in \ce{NO2} loss to form \ce{C7H7+}, which exhibits out-of-phase oscillations in yield with the parent molecular ion. The oscillations in 4-nitrotoluene with a period of 470 fs are attributed to the torsional motion of the \ce{NO2} group based on theoretical results showing that the dominant relaxation pathway in 4-nitrotoluene radical cation involves the rotation of the \ce{NO2} group away from the planar geometry. The distinctly faster oscillation period of 216 fs in 3-nitrotoluene is attributed to an in-plane bending motion of the \ce{NO2} and \ce{CH3} moieties based on analysis of the normal modes. These results demonstrate that coherent nuclear motions determine the probability of \ce{C-NO2} homolysis in the nitrotoluene radical cations upon optical excitation within several hundred femtoseconds of the initial ionization event.

Today we are in the throes of piecing together what is likely the most unique convergence of medical data and computer technologies. But more deeply, we observe that the traditional paradigm of computer simulation and prediction needs fundamental revision. This is the time for a number of reasons. We will review what the drivers are, why now, how this has been approached over the past several years, and where we are heading.

description: Medication administration errors are common, costly and the cause of adverse events in clinical practice. Interruptions during medication administration rounds are thought to be a prominent causative factor of these errors. The change chosen for this project was the introduction of drug round tabards in a long term care facility for the elderly. The aim was to reduce non-urgent interruptions during drug rounds, reduce the incidents of medication errors, enhance patient safety, safe time and promote compliance with professional and national standards on medication management. Disposable red tabards embroidered front and back with ‘Drug round in progress, do not disturb’ and checklist were introduced. The HSE change model was applied as a framework for the design and implementation of the change project. A total of 66(n=66) drug rounds- 33 pre-implementation and 33 post-implementation were observed for 2 weeks each. The sources of interruptions were recorded using the Medication Administration Distraction Observation Sheet (MADOS). Nurses’ compliance to medication administration policy was evaluated using observational checklist that included 30 criteria. Medication administration errors were captured through direct observation and retrospective chart review. All staff were adequately trained, and nurses’ satisfaction with the change project was measured in a survey. Quantitative evaluation method was used. There was an 85% decrease in interruptions (125 to 19), and larger decreases in medication errors (91%; 46 to 4) and non-compliance to policy (98%; 125 to 3). The average medication time saved was 9minutes. The result from the nurses’ survey and verbal feedback on the project showed satisfaction with the use of drug round tabard and checklist. These results will be used as evidence to roll out these strategies to other units in the hospital.

Hartree-Fock study of an Anderson metal-insulator transition in the presence of Coulomb interaction: Two types of mobility edges and their multifractal scaling exponents

description: In summary, we investigated the role of Coulomb interactions in the nature of eigenfunction multifractality of an Anderson metal-insulator transition, based on the Hartree-Fock approximation and the Ewald summation technique. As a result, we showed that two types of mobility edges appear near the Fermi energy and at a high energy, respectively, where the low-energy mobility edge results from Coulomb interactions while the high-energy one is nothing but the mobility edge of the Anderson localization transition without electron correlations. Indeed, not only multifractal scaling exponents but also the multifractal singularity spectrum confirms the existence of two kinds of mobility edges: Their values differ from those of the Anderson metal-insulator transition and the singularity spectrum collapses into two types of curves, implying two kinds of scale-invariance, which depends on the energy scale. We speculate that this novel nature of the eigenfunction multifractality would serve as valuable information for possible instabilities near a metal-insulator transition in the presence of Coulomb interactions.
Redesigning a speech and language therapy service in a school for emotional, behavioural disorders: perspectives of service users

Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This project takes a whole systems view of the challenges and opportunities for individuals working towards integration for children with speech, language and communication needs. The context involves collaboration across mental health and special education, to improve vocabulary outcomes for children attending a school for emotional, behavioural disorders. The facilitator of this project (student) viewed collaboration from a multilayered perspective, incorporating children, parents, school staff, operational and strategic levels of collaboration. Policy and the literature will be summarised to explore effective models of collaboration. Consultation with service users and the workforce led to the development of a whole school language approach, designed around the needs of children and their families. The facilitator used The HSE model (2008b) as an effective framework to analyse the change process. The facilitator adopted an action research methodology, alternating cycles of reflection and action. Evaluation involved multiple stakeholders in health, education sectors and service users providing feedback to inform further planning. This involved evaluation of SMART aim and objectives, in order to effect changes in the educational system. There are implications of this action research at clinical, research and policy levels. Children, parents and the wider workforce can effect changes in systems to mitigate the negative trajectory of speech, language and communication effects on all aspects of children’s lives. The key is making the inter-dependent journey together, adopting shared responsibility for communication impairment.

description: The temperature dependence of the in-plane magnetic penetration depth ($λ_{ab}$) in an extensively characterized sample of superconducting CaKFe$_4$As$_4$ ($T_{\rm c}\simeq35$ K) was investigated using muon-spin rotation ($μ$SR). A comparison of $λ_{ab}^{-2}(T)$ measured by $μ$SR with the one inferred from ARPES data confirms the presence of multiple gaps at the Fermi level. An agreement between $μ$SR and ARPES requires the presence of additional bands, which are not resolved by ARPES experiments. These bands are characterized by small supercondcting gaps with an average zero-temperature value of $Δ_{0} =$ 2.4(2) meV. Our data suggest that in CaKFe$_4$As$_4$ the $s^\pm$ order parameter symmetry acquires a more sophisticated form by allowing a sign change not only between electron and hole pockets, but also within pockets of similar type.

description: Introduction: Legionnaires’ is a severe pneumonia, the diagnosis of which can be confirmed by a positive Legionella Urinary Antigen (LUA) test. The British Thoracic Society has specific guidelines for its use. Incorrect LUA test requests can result in false-positive results while accumulating costs. Aims and Objectives: The aim is the rationalisation of LUA testing. The first objective is to educate clinicians on indications for testing reducing unnecessary orders. The second is to develop a laboratory Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) to screen test requests. The third is to reduce costs. Methodology: Rationalisation of laboratory testing can be through clinical education, laboratory administrative methods or a combination. The HSE Model guided the change process. A pre-change audit created urgency, engaged key stakeholders and informed development of the SOP. Face-toface education was undertaken in H1 & H3, with a written memo distributed to H2. The new SOP was presented to laboratory staff. Post-change audit results were used to mainstream. Evaluation: Following change implementation there was a decrease in LUA test requests in H1 & H3 of 17.5% and 15% respectively, but an increase of 2.3% overall. The total reduction in tests processed was 71.5% reducing costs by €2,195.52 and saving 24 hours of laboratory time. Conclusion and Organisational Impact: Face-to-face educational interventions are beneficial however administrative methods are most effective when rationalising laboratory test usage. High level management support and early engagement of stakeholders is key in successful change. Once mainstreamed, a saving of €28,541 and 312 laboratory hours per annum is predicted.

description: Galactic open clusters provide an abundant sample of stellar aggregates of various sizes, ages and metal abundances, apt to constitute a template for comparison with star systems in other galaxies. In this paper we present and discuss a standard methodology to synthesize {\sl U,B,V} fluxes and colours, and apply it to a set of 138 open clusters. Results are compared with previous available ones in the literature. We were able to calibrate a mass--luminosity relation by which we evaluated the mass of $\simeq 400$ open clusters, leading to a well defined present--day mass function. The number--complete sample of galactic open clusters presented in Battinelli \& Capuzzo--Dolcetta (1991) is enlarged of a $15\%$.}

Uniqueness results on phaseless inverse scattering with a reference ball

description: This paper is devoted to the uniqueness in inverse acoustic scattering problems for the Helmholtz equation with phaseless far-field data. Some novel techniques are developed to overcome the difficulty of translation invariance induced by a single incident plane wave. In this paper, based on adding a reference ball as an extra artificial impenetrable obstacle (resp. penetrable homogeneous medium) to the inverse obstacle (resp. medium) scattering system and then using superpositions of a fixed plane wave and some point sources as the incident waves, we rigorously prove that the location and shape of the obstacle as well as its boundary condition or the refractive index can be uniquely determined by the modulus of far-field patterns. The reference ball technique in conjunction with the superposition of incident waves brings in several salient benefits. First, the framework of our theoretical analysis can be applied to both the inverse obstacle and medium scattering problems. Second, for inverse obstacle scattering, the underlying boundary condition could be of a general type and be uniquely determined. Finally, only a single frequency is needed.

description: The entanglement detection via local measurements can be experimentally implemented. Based on mutually unbiased measurements and general symmetric informationally complete positive-operator-valued measures, we present separability criteria for bipartite quantum states, which, by theoretical analysis, are stronger than the related existing criteria via these measurements. Two detailed examples are supplemented to show the efficiency of the presented separability criteria.
