description: Contexte : en 2019, 93.0 % des foyers suisses avaient recours à Internet. Les femmes enceintes sont une population propice à employer les médias sociaux. La grossesse est une période de transition qui peut susciter des questionnements et des besoins spécifiques. Les médias sociaux sont devenus une ressource complémentaire de la famille et des professionnels de la santé. Ce travail explore l’expérience des femmes enceintes utilisant les médias sociaux durant leur grossesse. Méthodologie : les bases de données PubMed et CINAHL ont été consultées à l’aide d’équations de recherches pour effectuer une sélection d’articles. Les critères d’inclusion et d’exclusion ont ensuite été ajoutés afin d’affiner les recherches. Huit articles provenant des devis qualitatifs, quantitatifs et mixtes ont été analysés et inclus à ce travail. Résultats : les femmes enceintes utilisent fréquemment les médias sociaux pour rechercher des informations concernant la grossesse ou pour se procurer du soutien. Les réponses obtenues à l’aide des médias peuvent faire émerger des sentiments positifs ou négatifs chez la femme. La transmission insuffisante d’informations par les sages-femmes a été relevé comme une des raisons d’utilisation des médias sociaux par les femmes enceintes. Par ailleurs, cette utilisation n’influence pas leur relation avec la sage-femme. Conclusion : cette revue de littérature a mis en avant les différentes expériences que les femmes enceintes peuvent vivre au travers de l’utilisation des médias sociaux. De par ses compétences, la sage-femme est la personne de référence pour inclure les médias sociaux dans la prise en charge de la grossesse.

description: 1. The presence of parvovirus in chickens with enteric disease was investigated in commercial flocks in Brazil.2. The intestinal contents of chickens exhibiting clinical signs of diarrhoea, weight loss or mortality were examined, and chicken parvovirus (chPV) was identified using a PCR assay. The samples were sequenced and inoculated into SPF embryonated eggs to isolate the virus.3. Necropsies showed that the embryos were dwarfish, haemorrhagic and oedematous. The presence of chPV was confirmed by PCR and DNA sequencing.4. The molecular characterisation of chPV strains circulating in the Brazilian flocks showed that they were genetically related to sequences from North America, Europe and Asia. Phylogenetic analyses clustered the Brazilian chPV sequences with those from Europe (Croatia, Hungary) and Asia (South Korea).5. This study is the first report of the molecular characterisation of chPV circulating in the commercial flocks in Brazil and indicates high genetic similarity with chPV sequences from around the world.

description: In the context of multilevel longitudinal data, where sample units are collected in clusters, an important aspect that should be accounted for is the unobserved heterogeneity between sample units and between clusters. For this aim, we propose an approach based on nested hidden (latent) Markov chains, which are associated with every sample unit and with every cluster. The approach allows us to account for the previously mentioned forms of unobserved heterogeneity in a dynamic fashion; it also allows us to account for the correlation that may arise between the responses provided by the units belonging to the same cluster. Under the assumed model, computing the manifest distribution of these response variables is infeasible even with a few units per cluster. Therefore, we make inference on this model through a composite likelihood function based on all the possible pairs of subjects within each cluster. Properties of the composite likelihood estimator are assessed by simulation. The proposed approach is illustrated through an application to a dataset concerning a sample of Italian workers in which a binary response variable for the worker receiving an illness benefit was repeatedly observed.

description: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline, highly porous and three-dimensional ordered materials with well-defined cages and channels. They have recently been proposed as pollutants adsorbents from aqueous media, being the Zr-based MOFs, such as the MOF8081, the most widely used family. On the other hand, chitin is the second most abundant natural polymer used in various industrial applications.2 This polymer has a simple design, low operational cost, easy handling, high efficiency and easy regeneration ability that make it an ideal mesoporous support to generate MOF@Chitin membranes for water decontamination. In the present study, nanoparticles of MOF808 have been synthesized via solvothermal method and different amounts (5, 10 and 15 wt.%) were incorporated into the gel solution chitin composites. The synthesized chitin/MOF808 composites were structurally, morphologically and thermally characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, Raman and IR spectroscopies, TEM and SEM microscopy and by thermogravimetric (TGA/DSC) analysis. The surface area of the composites was also determined by BET method and the potential for the removal of organic (dyes) and inorganic (metals) pollutants from aqueous media was investigated showing an improvement between 30% and 50% comparing with the pristine chitin or MOF material.

description: Outdoor particles can penetrate through wall assemblies and influence the indoor air quality (IAQ). In this study, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was developed for predicting the particle penetration through wood-framed residential wall assemblies. The model included a simplified approach to account for the particle loss due to the fiberglass insulation material layer in the wall assemblies. Particles ranging from 0.001 to 10 μm in diameter were studied. Particle movement was modeled following an Eulerian approach, while particle deposition in the fiberglass insulation was accounted for by an additional sink term in the governing equation, derived from the classical filtration theory. The model was applied to a typical residential wall assembly, assuming crack heights of 1 mm in the vertical direction and 3 mm in the horizontal direction and a fiberglass insulation width of 0.14 m. The results showed that 0.05–1 μm particles were the most penetrable particles. The fiberglass insulation media reduced the particle penetration by more than 85% when the air permeability of the fiberglass insulation was larger than 0.001 s.Copyright 2015 American Association for Aerosol Research

description: ABSTRACTTemnospondyl amphibians are a large and diverse group of early tetrapods, whose paleohistology has been incompletely studied. Here, humeri of Micropholis stowi and Lydekkerina huxleyi from the Karoo Basin of South Africa (Katberg Formation) were thin–sectioned for paleohistological analysis. Diaphyseal bone histology of both taxa exhibits a convergence to fibrolamellar tissue and an absence of lines of arrested growth; additionally, medullary cavities free of trabeculae support terrestrial lifestyles in both Micropholis and Lydekkerina. The presence of azonal tissue in Micropholis is unlike that of other dissorophoids or extant caudatans, suggesting an adaptation to local conditions in the Early Triassic of the Karoo Basin, as well as a complicated and incompletely studied pattern of histological evolution in dissorophoids. Additionally, the propodial histology of these and 12 other taxa were assessed through different broad–scale phylogenetic hypotheses for Temnospondyli. Results reveal convergence towards sustained, non–cyclical growth and an absence of lines of arrested growth in the diaphyses of Early Triassic temnospondyls. The optimization of histological traits on to existing phylogenetic hypotheses is equally parsimonious between the different topologies. Homoplasy among histological characters suggests that evolutionary history in this group is overshadowed by developmental plasticity in bone microstructure, potentially due to environmental and biomechanical constraints. However, the interpretation of these data is limited by small sample size, and increased sampling is required to validate the patterns revealed in this study.http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:7CF4CD42–3C8B–43F3–83A1–7C611C5CDBB8SUPPLEMENTAL DATA—Supplemental materials are available for this article for free at www.tandfonline.com/UJVP

description: Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are one of the most widely used statistical methods for analyzing sequence data. However, the reporting of output from HMMs has largely been restricted to the presentation of the most-probable (MAP) hidden state sequence, found via the Viterbi algorithm, or the sequence of most probable marginals using the forward–backward algorithm. In this article, we expand the amount of information we could obtain from the posterior distribution of an HMM by introducing linear-time dynamic programming recursions that, conditional on a user-specified constraint in the number of segments, allow us to (i) find MAP sequences, (ii) compute posterior probabilities, and (iii) simulate sample paths. We collectively call these recursions k-segment algorithms and illustrate their utility using simulated and real examples. We also highlight the prospective and retrospective use of k-segment constraints for fitting HMMs or exploring existing model fits. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

description: There is an increasing interest in industrial and security applications and the establishment of wireless communication operating at frequencies of up to 0.30 THz. Soft tissue has a high coefficient of absorption at 0.30 THz and this limits effective penetration of the energy to a depth of 0.2 to 0.4 mm. The capacity of 0.30 THz radiation to access the deeper parts of the ear by diffusing through the ear canal and exposing the tympanic membrane (ear drum) to the radiation has not been studied. Simulations show that, with excitation parallel to the ear canal, the average power flux density within the central tympanic membrane region is 97% of the incident excitation. The structures of the outer ear are highly protective; less than 0.4% of the power flux density is directed at 45 degrees from the parallel reached the same region. Given the sensitivity of the tympanic membrane to mechanical change, in-vivo assessment of the penetration of 0.3 THz into the ear canal is warranted to assess the suitability of the present radiation safety limits and to inform 0.3 THz emitting device deign.

description: We report the synthesis of giant carbon particles with spherical and interconnected porous morphologies. Direct organic–organic self-assembly between phenolic resin and polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene oxide) (PS-b-PEO) was employed to prepare these highly ordered carbon particles. Mesoporous carbon nanoparticles with tunable textural characteristics such as large surface area, uniform pore structure, and high thermal properties were achieved by simply adjusting the ratio between the block copolymer to phenol without using acid, base, or activating agents. The synthesized nanoparticles possess a very high surface area of up to 832 m2 g–1, and ultrasmall pore size, as small as 3 nm, and exhibited excellent electrochemical performance when used as active electrodes for lithium-ion batteries. Making use of the secondary interactions between the functional groups of the block copolymer and phenol, this study created tunable nanoparticles with excellent surface area and uniform morphologies that can be used in target oriented applications in the energy storage area.

Subjects: Clinical Psychology

description:        Around the world many people are being impacted by mental health challenges. Many individuals that are suffering from mental health challenges do not receive treatment. Therefore, there is a need to explore the therapeutic effectiveness of alternative intervention tools and activities. Rock climbing is an activity that includes many aspects of wellness including physical activity, social connections, problem solving, enhanced self-efficacy, emotion regulation, and exposure to nature. This critical review of the literature sought to explore the current research available on rock climbing to draw conclusions regarding its effectiveness as a therapeutic intervention tool. This review is a narrative systematic literature review, which aimed to answer focused research questions on rock climbing’s impact on mental wellbeing by exploring available research articles. A total of 10 studies were reviewed that focused on various aspects of mental wellbeing including broad psychological wellbeing, depression, anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy. Results revealed preliminary evidence to suggest that rock climbing is effective at reducing depressive symptoms in addition to traditional therapies. The results also indicated conflicting evidence that rock climbing enhances broad psychological wellbeing, self-efficacy, and anxiety symptoms. There was not sufficient available research to assess rock climbing’s impact on managing stress. Additionally, the research on rock climbing was not inclusive of diverse populations overall. The research was inclusive in diversity of age and developmental disability. Overall, this review suggests that rock climbing has some preliminary support based on the studies reviewed as an effective tool to use in addition to psychotherapy and medication in reducing depressive symptoms. Further research is warranted to understand rock climbing’s impact on anxiety, stress, and self-efficacy, as well as research on diverse populations.

description: The liquid–liquid extraction process called EXAm was developed by the CEA to allow the recovery of Americium alone from a PUREX raffinate. Americium is extracted from a highly acidic feed solution (HNO3 4–6 M) by a mixture of two extractants: DMDOHEMA and HDEHP. The Am/Cm selectivity is improved using a specific diglycolamide (TEDGA) as a selective aqueous complexing agent which retains preferentially Cm and heavier lanthanides in the aqueous phase. In this study, the impact of the lipophilicity and steric hindrance of several diglycolamides on the Am/Cm selectivity was investigated in order to understand the enhancement brought by TEDGA. For this purpose, liquid–liquid extraction and partitioning experiments were performed under various conditions.

description: The poor thermal performance of many dwelling units built from 1940 to 1980 produces a low energy efficiency under the present thermal standards. In order to fulfil comfort and energy efficiency requirements, these facades need to be retrofitted. In many cases, External Thermal Insulation Composite System (ETICS) are used to increase thermal insulation, although this solution does not consider the thermal inertia. New mortars with improved thermal insulation and inertia are investigated as an innovative solution. Twelve cement-lime mortars were designed, using: white cement, air lime, siliceous aggregate (0-4 mm), lightweight aggregate (LWA) (expanded perlite), short cellulose fibres and 10 and 20% of a Phase Change Material (PCM) - microencapsulated paraffin wax. PCM’s nominal melting temperature was 23 ± 1 °C. An experimental program was carried out to assess the effect of PCM on the physical and thermal performance of the mortars. Two different scenarios were considered to evaluate the temperature effect on the PCM-mortar performance. Bulk density, open porosity, capillary absorption, vapour permeability, thermal conductivity and compressive strength were characterized. PCM produced significant changes on the mortar thermal properties and a synergetic effect of PCM and LWA was identified.

description: Background To determine the general appearance of normal axillary lymph nodes (LNs) in real-time tissue sonoelastography and to explore the method′s potential value in the prediction of LN metastases. Methods Axillary LNs in healthy probands (n=165) and metastatic LNs in breast cancer patients (n=15) were examined with palpation, B-mode ultrasound, Doppler and sonoelastography (assessment of the elasticity of the cortex and the medulla). The elasticity distributions were compared and sensitivity (SE) and specificity (SP) were calculated. In an exploratory analysis, positive and negative predictive values (PPV, NPV) were calculated based upon the estimated prevalence of LN metastases in different risk groups. Results In the elastogram, the LN cortex was significantly harder than the medulla in both healthy (p=0.004) and metastatic LNs (p=0.005). Comparing healthy and metastatic LNs, there was no difference in the elasticity distribution of the medulla (p=0.281), but we found a significantly harder cortex in metastatic LNs (p=0.006). The SE of clinical examination, B-mode ultrasound, Doppler ultrasound and sonoelastography was revealed to be 13.3%, 40.0%, 14.3% and 60.0%, respectively, and SP was 88.4%, 96.8%, 95.6% and 79.6%, respectively. The highest SE was achieved by the disjunctive combination of B-mode and elastographic features (cortex >3mm in B-mode or blue cortex in the elastogram, SE=73.3%). The highest SP was achieved by the conjunctive combination of B-mode ultrasound and elastography (cortex >3mm in B-mode and blue cortex in the elastogram, SP=99.3%). Conclusions Sonoelastography is a feasible method to visualize the elasticity distribution of LNs. Moreover, sonoelastography is capable of detecting elasticity differences between the cortex and medulla, and between metastatic and healthy LNs. Therefore, sonoelastography yields additional information about axillary LN status and can improve the PPV, although this method is still experimental.

FROM IRAQ TO IRAQ AGAIN: JUS AD BELLUM IN THE INTERNATIONAL CONTEXT 10 YEARS AFTER THE IRAQI INVASION

description: The jus ad belum changes substantially after the end of the Cold War, occasioning deep changes in international relations. It is possible to say that the fall of the Berlin Wall led to the opening of the international system for a greater role of the United Nations and its normative regulations. This condition is blatant regarding the international acceptance of the UN Charter rules at the first Gulf War. However, less than ten years later these normative regulations are ignored in favor of a more pragmatic perspective: the Kosovo bombing was not authorized by the Security Council and, severely criticized, it was eventually accepted by the international community only as the lesser of two evils. In a new cycle, the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq at the beginning of the new century determined a new position on the issue, as without formal authorization nor international support , a small group of countries went to war. One important question to be posed is whether this new position is the manifestation of the so called “active pacifism” or if it is a new drawback for the international normativity in favor of the sovereign concreteness. The answer to this question is important as it helps to design the limits of the International Law.

description: This article aims to identify the existence and classify the personality rights of the unborn. Therefore, it is necessary to present the legal nature of the unborn child. In this sense, the study assumes that the unborn child is assigned legal personality grounded in the Conceptionist theory that assures personality rights from the conception. Although the unborn child is respected as a subject of rights, it is recognized that he or she is a person in differentiated condition of those who already were born, which does not prevent him/her from assigning the capacity of law, however there are specificities that should be considered to make an appropriate classification of his/her personality rights. In order for the unborn is born alive, it is essential that his/her psychophysical integrity is assured by fundamental rights, such as: the right to health during pregnancy; the right to be born alive; and the right to be born without congenital malformation. Accordingly, we conclude that the unborn child, for having intrauterine life, is endowed with legal personality, which guarantees him/her the capacity of rights, which, related to personality rights, are classified as the right to physical integrity and moral integrity.

description: Introduction: In North America, data over the last decade have found significant morbidity associated with opioid use and prescribing of opioids to patients. The objective of our study was to assess if there has been a change in opioid prescribing practices by emergency physicians over time for undifferentiated abdominal pain. Method: A medical records review for adult patients presenting at two urban academic tertiary care emergency departments was conducted for two distinct time periods; the years of 2012 and 2017. The first 500 patients per year with a discharge diagnosis of “abdominal pain” or “abdominal pain not yet diagnosed” for each year were identified and their charts were reviewed. Data were collected regarding analgesia received in the emergency department and opioid prescriptions written. Opioids were standardized into morphine equivalent doses to compare quantities of prescribed opioids. Results: 1,000 patients were included in our study. The mean age was 42.0 years and 69.6% of patients were female. Comparing 2012 to 2017, there was a non-significant decrease in opioid prescriptions written for patients discharged from the emergency department from 17.8% to 14.4% (p=0.144). Mean opioid quantities per prescription decreased from 130.4 milligrams of morphine equivalents per prescription to 98.9 milligrams per prescription (P=0.002). There was an increase in foundational analgesia use prior to initiating opioids in the emergency department from 17.6% to 26.8% (p=0.001). There was a significant decrease in opioid use in the emergency department from 40.0% to 32.8% (p=0.018). Conclusion: Opioid prescription rates have not changed significantly over our 5-year study period. However, physicians have reduced the quantity prescribed per prescription and are using less opioid analgesia in the emergency department for abdominal pain of undetermined etiology.

description: Il presente lavoro scientifico del Dottorato Uomo e Ambiente XXIII Ciclo riporta una interessante esperienza in Madagascar, svolta in collaborazione con i Frati Minori Cappuccini e il contributo finanziario di una società italiana impegnata nel settore energetico, al fine di attivare iniziative inerenti l'impiego energetico della Jatropha curcas L.. Si tratta, è bene spiegarlo, di attività svolte con il consenso e la partecipazione diretta della popolazione locale, e che nulla hanno a che vedere con i deprecabili fenomeni speculativi di tratto "neo-coloniale". L'interesse specifico riguarda prevalentemente le modalità di co-gestione del progetto da parte delle comunità locali e le possibilità che un progetto nel settore energetico possa indurre processi di sviluppo endogeno capaci di garantire reddito rafforzando, al contempo, i legami di comunità. Per l'A.A. 2009-2010, il Dottorando ha usufruito di una Borsa di Ricerca assegnata dalla Regione Puglia, particolarmente interessata a favorire l'incontro tra mondo della ricerca e dell'innovazione con nuove idee imprenditoriali, specie per lo sviluppo di fonti energetiche alternative, sostenibili. Interessata anche a rafforzare le proprie relazioni con il “sud del mondo”, favorendo la cooperazione e l'impresa etica. Una parte sperimentale del lavoro riguarda la caratterizzazione agronomica dei terreni che ospitano gli impianti di Jatropha nonché una valutazione delle quantità e qualità di olio estraibile dai semi e la successiva trasformazione in biodiesel. Le prove sono state svolte in collaborazione con il CNR di Lesina, nel quadro dei consolidati rapporti di collaborazione formativa e scientifica esistenti con la nostra Università.
