description: Biosorption is an effective alternative method for the control of water pollution caused by different pollutants such as synthetic dyes and metals. A new and efficient biomass system was developed from the passively immobilized fungal cells. The spongy tissue of Phragmites australis was considered as the carrier for the immobilization of Neurospora sitophila cells employed for the biosorption of Basic Blue 7. This plant tissue was used for the first time as a carrier for fungal cells. The biosorption was examined through batch- and continuous-mode operations. The biosorption process conformed well to the Langmuir model. Maximum monolayer biosorption capacity of the biosorbent was recorded as 154.756 mg g−1. Kinetic findings showed a very good compliance with the pseudo-second-order model. The negative values of ΔG° indicated a spontaneous nature of the biosorption process and a positive value of ΔH° (14.69 kJ mol−1) concluded favorable decolorization at high temperature. The scanning electron microscopy analysis showed that a porous, rippled, and rough surface of biomass system was covered with BB7 molecular cloud. IR results revealed that functional groups like –OH, –NH, and C˭O participated to the decolorization. Breakthrough and exhausted points were found as 360 and 570 minutes, respectively. The biomass system was successfully applied to the treatment of real wastewater.
The Extra Costs Borne by Families Who Have a Child with a Disability

description: In this report I describe the results of a study undertaken between June 1986 and May 1987. During this period, I visited 50 families, all of whom had a disabled child between 12 and 16 years of age. I talked to them about the costs they incurred as a consequence of their children's disabilities. The study is quite narrowly focused on economic effects, attempting to tease out only those costs which would not have been incurred had there been no disability. I have been concerned with costs of two kinds: firstly direct costs, money actually spent on meeting the child's needs, and, secondly indirect costs, the income forgone by the family because of the child's special needs and dependency. These latter hidden costs arise because the child's dependency can in some cases prevent one or even both parents from full participation in the labour force. It may also inhibit job mobility or career advancement, and thereby earnings, for those who are able to work full time. It may affect long-term earning capacity by, for example, preventing a parent from undertaking further education essential to the pursuit or enhancement of a particular career. Although this study concentrates on economic costs, parents and others caring for children with disabilities will know that the consequences are by no means exclusively economic. Neither are the economic consequences necessarily of greatest significance to family members. There are many ways in which a child's disability can affect a family. These are likely to vary considerably, according to the age of the child and his or her changing needs, and according to the circumstances of the family. There may also be social consequences, such as isolation of the family from the community, relatives and friends, or emotional consequences leading to the breakdown of marriages or the deterioration of other relationships within the family. There can be consequences for the health of family members, resulting from the physical and mental strain of caring for a disabled child. These effects are not felt equally by all family members.

description: Objective: Currently only 5 out of the 50 states in the United States have laws restricting the age of passengers permitted to ride on a motorcycle. This study sought to characterize the visits by patients under the age of 16 to U.S. emergency departments (EDs) for injuries sustained as a passenger on a motorcycle. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, data were obtained from the Nationwide Emergency Department Sample (NEDS) for the years 2006 to 2011. Pediatric patients who were passengers on a motorcycle that was involved in a crash were identified using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) External Cause of Injury codes. We also examined gender, age, disposition, regional differences, common injuries, and charges. Results: Between 2006 and 2011 there were an estimated 9,689 visits to U.S. EDs by patients under the age of 16 who were passengers on a motorcycle involved in a crash. The overall average patient age was 9.4 years, and they were predominately male (54.5%). The majority (85%) of these patients were treated and released. The average charges for discharged patients were $2,116.50 and amounted to roughly $17,500,000 during the 6 years. The average cost for admission was $51,446 per patient and totaled over $54 million. The most common primary injuries included superficial contusions; sprains and strains; upper limb fractures; open wounds of head, neck, and trunk; and intracranial injuries. Conclusion: Although there were only about 9,700 visits to U.S. EDs for motorcycle crashes involving passengers less than 16 years old for 2006 to 2011, the total cost of visits that resulted in either ED discharge or hospital admission amounted to over $71 million.

description: This study aims to describe the views of forensic psychiatric patients' parents, and especially how they feel about the patient's offense. The data analyzed was collected by interviews with forensic psychiatric patients' parents and analyzed by inductive content analysis. The findings suggest that the offense committed has a significant effect on the lives of parents of forensic psychiatric patients and in many ways these people felt like a marginalized group even though they were frequently a major resource for their child who had been taken into forensic psychiatric care. The parents of a forensic psychiatric patient have a prominent role in the life of the patient and this role and the parents' coping should also be supported by the forensic psychiatric treatment system.

Theory and Practice in Australian Social Policy: Rethinking the Fundamentals, Proceedings of the National Social Policy Conference Sydney July 14-16 1993 Volume 1: Plenary Papers
Creators: name: Saunders, Peter
name: Shaver, Sheila
Publisher: name: UNSW Sydney
Year: 1993

description: In his Opening Address to the Conference, David Piachaud examines the invisible societal values that enable societies to function, and considers them in the more general context of the relationship between economic policy and social policy. Peter Taylor-Gooby's paper describes how traditional approaches to knowledge (the 'grand narratives') are breaking up in response to increasing uncertainty. This theme is echoed in the paper by Jan Carter which, in examining the history of social inequality in Australia, also attempts to isolate the rather elusive qualities of egalitarianism we have heard so much about in this country. In his paper, Neil Gilbert portrays the family today not as some descendent of the TV family of the fifties, but instead one faced with an almost bewildering set of considerations before mum and/or dad get out of the door to work or to the child care centre. The gender divisions of labour are further highlighted in Bob Gregory's paper. Again, we have to rethink some fundamentals: why has the United States escaped some of Australia's labour force problems, and what would be the consequences of adopting some of their policies?

description: The paper begins by summarising some of the economic, demographic and social trends that form the backdrop against which social security policies are operating. This is followed by a detailed discussion of the role of research in policy planning in the social security field. Specific issues addressed include the alternative forms and impacts of research on policy, research inputs, the utilisation of research and alternative models of research funding. Some of the discussion draws upon aspects of the SPRC's own experience in conducting policy relevant research within a university environment. The paper finishes with a series of proposals for developing research capability within social security organisations in the Asia and Pacific region.

description: Wastewater flowing in streams and nallahs across India carries several trace metals, including metalloid arsenic (As), which are considered serious environmental contaminants due to their toxicity, and recalcitrant nature. In this study, we determined the phytoremediation of As by Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms either alone or in association with plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria. Pseudomonas and Azotobacter inoculation to E. crassipes resulted in enhanced As removal compared to uninoculated control. Co-inoculation with a consortium of Pseudomonas, Azotobacter, Azospirillum, Actinomyces, and Bacillus resulted in a higher As (p < 0.05) phytoaccumulation efficiency. P. aeruginosa strain jogii was found particularly effective in augmenting As removal by E. crassipes. Our findings indicate that the synergistic association of E. crassipes and various rhizobacteria is an effective strategy to enhance removal of As and thus may be utilized as an efficient biological alternative for the removal of this metalloid from wastewaters.

description: Background: Intraoperative imaging must supply data that can be used for accurate stereotactic navigation. This information should be at least as accurate as that acquired from diagnostic imagers. Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the stereotactic accuracy of an updated compact intraoperative MRI (iMRI) device based on a 0.15-T magnet to standard surgical navigation on a 1.5-T diagnostic scan MRI and to navigation with an earlier model of the same system. Methods: The accuracy of each system was assessed using a water-filled phantom model of the brain. Data collected with the new system were compared to those obtained in a previous study assessing the older system. The accuracy of the new iMRI was measured against standard surgical navigation on a 1.5-T MRI using T1-weighted (W) images. Results: The mean error with the iMRI using T1W images was lower than that based on images from the 1.5-T scan (1.24 vs. 2.43 mm). T2W images from the newer iMRI yielded a lower navigation error than those acquired with the prior model (1.28 vs. 3.15 mm). Conclusions: Improvements in magnet design can yield progressive increases in accuracy, validating the concept of compact, low-field iMRI. Avoiding the need for registration between image and surgical space increases navigation accuracy.

A produção era, regra geral, em pequena escala, em casa dos próprios tecelões e destinava-se à venda local. Partindo de fontes manuscritas inexploradas para o estudo das actividades laborais da Época Moderna, nomeadamente processos do Tribunal do Santo Ofício da Inquisição, pretende estudar-se as atividades dos tecelões, em especial os seus bens materiais, particularmente os que se relacionam com a profissão que desempenhavam, mas também os conflitos em que se envolviam com outros tecelões, o que preparavam e vendiam e em que contextos.

Es wird den Fragen nachgegangen, welche Einflüsse exekutive Funktionen auf das Lernen haben und wie eine Förderung dieser unter Einbezug körperlicher Aktivität aussehen könnte. Die Arbeit untersucht mittels einer umfangreichen Literaturrecherche wissenschaftliche Sichtweisen in Bezug auf das Lernen, wobei der neurowissenschaftliche Ansatz fokussiert wird. Bezugnehmend auf das Zusammenwirken von körperlicher Aktivität und exekutiven Funktionen werden neuste Forschungsergebnisse und kritische Überlegungen dargelegt, sowie Schlussfolgerungen aus Theorie und Praxis hinsichtlich einer wirksamen Förderung präsentiert. Bei der Darstellung der Ergebnisse steht der Praxisbezug im Zentrum. Die Arbeit kommt zum Schluss, dass in der Praxis bereits schulische Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten bzw. Projekte bestehen. In Bezug auf das wissenschaftlich begründete Ursache Wirkungsgefüge hinsichtlich Bewegung und Kognition ist das Treffen einer allgemein gültigen Aussage aber schwierig, da die Zusammenhänge noch nicht endgültig geklärt sind.

description: In this paper, we investigate the commonality of nonparametric component functions among different quantile levels in additive regression models. We propose two fused adaptive group Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator penalties to shrink the difference of functions between neighbouring quantile levels. The proposed methodology is able to simultaneously estimate the nonparametric functions and identify the quantile regions where functions are unvarying, and thus is expected to perform better than standard additive quantile regression when there exists a region of quantile levels on which the functions are unvarying. Under some regularity conditions, the proposed penalised estimators can theoretically achieve the optimal rate of convergence and identify the true varying/unvarying regions consistently. Simulation studies and a real data application show that the proposed methods yield good numerical results.

description: Our original expectation was that the Guilty Strong list would show the most false alarm to the critical lure, the Guilty Weak the least, and the Guilty Medium in the middle. However, our results (see Data) show the opposite trend. This finding is surprising, given that past research with this paradigm had a 7-word strong association activate the critical lure approximately 75% of the time. However, given that our list is new and has not had the same sort of analyses as established DRM lists (e.g., extensive forward and backwards associative strength testing), it is possible that the forward associative strength of each word is different than the backwards associative strength - the strength on which we based our list and expected association strength.

Thus, we want to replicate and extend our findings, and will collect another sample with the following changes:
1. We will remove the Chair list controls in order to save on time and cost (the Chair list Strong/Medium/Weak list showed the predicted trend for critical lure activation)
2. We will add a second "Strong List" (labeled Strong2) that contains the 2nd-8th strongest associated list (the "Strong List" contains 1-7).

description: Background/Aims: To evaluate whether visual assessment of medial temporal lobe atrophy (vaMTA) can predict 2-year conversion from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to dementia and progression of MCI and Alzheimer's disease dementia as measured by the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale Sum of Boxes score (CDR-SB). Methods: vaMTA was performed in 94 patients with MCI according to the Winblad criteria and in 124 patients with AD according to ICD-10 and NINCDS-ADRDA criteria. Demographic data, the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease 10-word delayed recall, APOE ɛ4 status, Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia, and comorbid hypertension were used as covariates. Results: vaMTA was associated with MCI conversion in an unadjusted model but not in an adjusted model (p = 0.075), where delayed recall and APOE ɛ4 status were significant predictors. With CDR-SB change as the outcome, an interaction between vaMTA and diagnosis was found, but in the adjusted model only delayed recall and age were significant predictors. For vaMTA below 2, the association between vaMTA and CDR-SB change differed between diagnostic groups. Similar results were found based on a trajectory analysis. Conclusion: In adjusted models, memory function, APOE ɛ4 status and age were significant predictors of disease progression, not vaMTA. The association between vaMTA and CDR-SB change was different in patients with MCI and Alzheimer's disease dementia.
Tax Theory and Targeting: A Survey
Creators: name: Bradbury, Bruce
Publisher: name: UNSW Sydney
Year: 1999

description: In many countries, the targeting of income transfer schemes leads to a very high effective marginal tax rate on private income. How can the equity goals associated with targeting be made consistent with the maintenance of labour supply incentives? This paper reviews the inevitable trade-offs facing income-tested tax-transfer systems, and then goes on to examine the conclusions of a growing body of economic analysis of these questions. This analysis, growing out of the literature on ‘optimal income taxation' seeks to provide a framework for a balancing of the conflicting efficiency and equity issues involved in income-based redistribution. Though existing research is not able to provide firm guidelines to policy, there are valuable insights - particularly from research that has begun to incorporate the administrative features of programs. These have major implications for the structure of income testing. Insofar as activity testing increases labour supply, one might argue for the use of a higher benefit withdrawal rate - since this permits a lower tax rate at other points in the distribution without defeating equity objectives. At the same time, economic theory has yet to seriously analyse the diversity of social goals in this area. Different social evaluations of the value of ‘leisure’ may have important implications for policy.

description: The roles and responsibilities of cities in CO2 mitigation have drawn increasing attention in recent years. To facilitate optimal design of effective mitigation policies, it is important for city authorities to understand the magnitudes and sources of their CO2 emissions, and their relative shares of emissions at a higher spatial level. Although several studies estimate CO2 emissions at the city level, the robustness of these estimates and their linkage to emissions at a higher level remains unclear. This kind of localized information on emissions is important for coordination of climate policies at different spatial scales. The study aims to fill a gap in understanding by building a systematic bottom-up approach for estimating urban CO2 emissions and offering a consistency check with IPCC top–down estimates. Using Taiwan as a case study, we display the geographic distribution of CO2 emissions. The significance and implications of the downscaling CO2 emissions are indicated accordingly.

description: Introduction: Engerix B (GSK HepB, GSK, Belgium) was the first recombinant hepatitis B virus vaccine to be licensed, and marked its 30th anniversary in 2016. Vaccination of adult populations against HBV is usually implemented on a risk-based approach with varying degrees of success. Confirmation of ongoing vaccine effectiveness requires monitoring the performance of HBV immunization as reported in individual studies, using systematic methods. Areas covered: We conducted a systematic review of the literature to summarize 30 years of immunogenicity and safety data for GSK HepB in adult populations. Expert commentary: Primary 3-dose vaccination of healthy individuals is generally associated with seroprotection rates of 90% or more, although seroprotection decreases with older age. Accelerated 0, 1, 2-month or 0, 7 and 21-day schedules require the recommended booster dose to achieve similar rates of seroprotection. Lower rates of seroprotection were also observed in adults with underlying chronic disease and with a weakened immune system. GSK HepB had a clinically acceptable safety profile in all of the populations studied, including individuals with underlying co-morbidities and immunosuppression. GSK HepB will continue to contribute to global HBV control for the foreseeable future. Further investigation is needed into how to optimize seroprotection in less immune-competent groups.

description: Interest in the subject of privatisation in Australia has increased markedly over recent years, although references to it have been made in the literature intermittently over a longer period. The original purpose of this bibliography was to record items dealing with the privatisation of welfare services. However, as work on collecting material for the entries proceeded, it became obvious that it is extremely difficult to separate privatisation of welfare services from the effects on welfare of the privatisation of enterprises not directly concerned with those services. Privatisation of enterprises such as the water supply and communication services, has direct or indirect effects on the well-being of the population. It introduces the question of 'community service obligations' (CSOs), or the non-commercial objectives of government business organisations, which are often lost when these organisations are privatised. This bibliography has therefore widened its scope to include works which refer to the effects on the well-being of the population of the privatisation of enterprises not directly in the welfare area. Another issue which has affected the choice of entries has been that of what constitutes privatisation. A number of works cited here are concerned with definition and with detailing the nature of the changes which are entailed in different forms of privatisation: deregulation, the introduction of user-pays practices, asset sales etc. Among these may be included an expanded role for the voluntary or non-profit sector in the provision of community and welfare services. These entries are found under the keyword 'Forms'.

description: Abstract Die Psychomotoriktherapie hat immer wieder mit Kindern zu tun, welche fremdplatziert werden. Die Folgen des damit zusammenhängenden Traumas zeigen sich zum Beispiel in unangepasstem Verhalten oder in Schwierigkeiten der Körperwahrnehmung oder der Konzentration. Solche Symptome gehören zu den Gründen, warum ein Kind für die Psychomotoriktherapie angemeldet wird. Trotzdem wird in der Ausbildung zum*r Psychomotoriktherapeuten*in die Thematik des Traumas nur gestreift. Mit dieser Arbeit wird Psychomotoriktherapeuten*innen, welche mit dem Thema in Kontakt kommen, ein Mittel an die Hand gegeben, welches ihnen als Anker für die Thematik dienen und in der Praxis den Umgang mit betroffenen Kindern unterstützen kann. Um die Verbindung zur Psychomotorik zu gewährleisten, behandelt die Arbeit körperzentrierte Ansätze der Traumaverarbeitung. Auf die Praxis bezogen bildet ein Interventionskatalog die Verbindung zwischen Psychomotorik, Traumatheorie und Bilderbuch. Um das Verständnis der Vorgestellten Ansätze zu gewährleisten und Psychomotoriktherapeuten*innen Sicherheit in der Praxis zu geben, wird mit den Grundlagen zur Traumapädagogik begonnen und erklärt, was Fremdplatzierung überhaupt ist. Die vorliegende Arbeit ist eine Produktarbeit mit dem Ziel der Erstellung und der theoretischen Verankerung des Bilderbuches und des Interventionskataloges. Sie kann Grundlage für Folgearbeiten zur empirischen Evaluation des Bilderbuches und der Interventionen sein.

description: Background and purpose — The reliability of conventional radiography when classifying distal radius fractures (DRF) is fair to moderate. We investigated whether reliability increases when additional computed tomography scans (CT) are used. Patients and methods — In this prospective study, we performed pre- and postreduction posterior–anterior and lateral radiographs of 51 patients presenting with a displaced DRF. The case was included when there was a (questionable) indication for surgical treatment and an additional CT was conducted within 5 days. 4 observers assessed the cases using the Frykman, Fernández, Universal, and AO classification systems. The first 2 assessments were performed using conventional radiography alone; the following 2 assessments were performed with an additional CT. We used the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) to evaluate reliability. The CT was used as a reference standard to determine the accuracy. Results — The intraobserver ICC for conventional radiography alone versus radiography and an additional CT was: Frykman 0.57 vs. 0.51; Fernández 0.53 vs. 0.66; Universal 0.57 vs. 0.64; AO 0.59 vs. 0.71. The interobserver ICC was: Frykman: 0.45 vs. 0.28; Fernández: 0.38 vs. 0.44; Universal: 0.32 vs. 0.43; AO: 0.46 vs. 0.40. Interpretation — The intraobserver reliability of the classification systems was fair but improved when an additional CT was used, except for the Frykman classification. The interobserver reliability ranged from poor to fair and did not improve when using an additional CT. Additional CT scanning has implications for the accuracy of scoring the fracture types, especially for simple fracture types.
Event-Level Impaired Control Over Alcohol: A Scoping Review
Creators: name: Kalina, Elena
Publisher: name: OSF Registries
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Social and Behavioral Sciences

description: Objective: The objectives of this scoping review are to understand the optimal methodology to measure event-level impaired control over alcohol and to understand the key predictors of between-person differences in event-level impaired control.
Introduction: Heavy-episodic drinking among young adults is a national health concern. Existing alcohol prevention interventions for young adults exhibit minimal long-term efficacy, thus it is essential to research possible mechanisms of heavy-episodic drinking behavior change, like impaired control over alcohol. Event-level methodologies are needed to understand dynamic changes in impaired control in real time. However, there remains a lack of standardized methods for doing so. The purpose of this scoping review is 1) to identify the best-fitting methodology for assessing event-level associations between impaired control and drinking behaviors, and 2) to understand which between-person characteristics and event-level covariates need to be accounted for in the assessment of those associations.
Inclusion criteria: We will include experimental and observational studies. We will target studies that recruited participants who drink alcohol, conducted event-level assessments, and measured impaired control over alcohol, intentions to drink, and/or intentions to limit alcohol consumption at the event-level. While we will record between-person characteristics examined in these studies, the inclusion of such variables is not required for inclusion.
Methods: Databases will be searched with search terms such as “impaired control” and limited to articles published after 1993 (i.e., the year the impaired control scale was first published). Three experts will be involved in a review process via Covidence. This review will be in accordance with PRISMA.
Social Capital and Welfare: Dependency or Division? Examining Bridging Trends by Welfare Regime, 1981 to 2000
Creators: name: Patulny, Roger
Publisher: name: UNSW Sydney
Year: 2005

description: Social capital is a contentious and multifaceted topic. A broad consensus has been reached, however, that norms such as trust, networks of association membership, and practices of volunteering and socializing are essential to its makeup. It is also increasingly recognized that such elements fall into two distinct types of social capital – bonding and bridging. Social structural influences, such as welfare, have an effect upon social capital. A common conservative conception is that welfare induces dependency and thereby erodes social capital; this can be called the ‘dependency hypothesis’. I suggest this is largely limited to bonding capital only, however. I suggest an alternative, that welfare cutbacks or contingencies upon mutual obligation or status preservation is socially divisive. I call this the ‘division hypothesis’, and it is relevant to the more definitively positive bridging capital. This paper shows trends in bridging social capital in nine OECD countries of differing welfare regime type from 1981 to 2000. It uses data from the most recent versions of the World Values Survey and Multinational Time Use Study. It suggests that welfare regime type, and importantly, welfare regime re-structuring, bears strong relations to national levels of bridging social capital.

O papel decorativo da pintura a fresco dos séculos XV e XVI em Portugal
Creators: name: Caetano, Joaquim Inácio
Publisher: name: Revista de Artes Decorativas
Year: 2015

description: Paralelamente à função catequética e devocional, a pintura a fresco dos séculos XV e XVI no Norte de Portugal, tem um importante papel do ponto de vista decorativo. Esse papel assume vários aspectos que vão desde a existência de composições decorativas independentes, com vários tipos de linguagem onde o grotesco tem uma presença significativa, passando pela imitação de aparelhos construtivos, de retábulos e de tecidos como, por exemplo, no segundo plano das composições figurativas, em frontais de altar e imitando panos de armar a forrar a capela-mor, alguns com evidente intenção ilusionista.
