description: Chitosan is a polyfunctional biomaterial that is subjected to chemical modification through functionalization to give the derivatives of remarkable anticancer activity. In this study, functionalization of low molecular weight commercial chitosan (CS) (Mw < 3000 Da, 87% DDA) and high molecular weight crab shell chitosan (CCS) (viscosity average Mw 350 kDa, 67% DDA) as chitosan thiophene-2-thiosemicarbazones (DS 63.48–64.14%) and the formation of their copper(II) complexes were established by FT-IR, 13C NMR, EPR spectroscopy, powder X ray diffraction, elemental microanalysis and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The thermal study of the compounds showed a substantial stability up to 200°C until the commencement of chitosan chain degradation. The MTT assay revealed higher activity of CS (IC50 370 μgmL−1 in MCF-7 and >400 μgmL−1 in MDCK cell line) than CCS (IC50 > 400 μgmL−1 in both cell lines), higher activity of CSTHPTSC (IC50 364 μgmL−1 in MDCK and 369 μgmL−1 in MCF-7 cell line) than CCSTHPTSC (IC50 > 400 μgmL−1 in both cell lines), higher activity of the complexes Cu-CSTHPTSC (IC50 338 μgmL−1 in MDCK and 318 μgmL−1 in MCF-7 cell line) and Cu-CCSTHPTSC (IC50 293 μgmL−1 in MDCK and >400 μgmL−1 in MCF-7 cell line) than their corresponding ligands.

description: Shellac is a natural biodegradable oligoester produced by lac insects, containing reactive functional groups such as hydroxyl, carboxylic acid, ester, aldehyde, and alkene groups, which can be used for chemical functionalization. Herein, shellac is functionalized with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) or poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) via grafting-to and grafting-from methods. The functional polymer conjugates are then processed as nanoparticles by the miniemulsion-solvent evaporation process. Shellac-PEG nanoparticles are enriched with apolipoprotein AI after incubation in fetal bovine serum at 37 °C. Moreover, shellac-PNIPAM nanoparticles adsorb specifically prothrombin at 37 °C (T > volume phase transition temperature, VPTT).

description: In the present scenario, there are prime challenges that need to be addressed in modern wireless communication systems. These challenges consist of implementation of techniques which are meant for increasing the capacity and enhancing the data rate for providing the better quality of service. Frequency Selective Surfaces (FSSs) help to address these challenges by offering spatial filtering techniques in wireless communication systems. In this paper, a detailed survey on the FSSs is presented with a focus on the fundamental principles, geometries, and fabrication techniques employed for manufacturing. An extensive review is presented for understanding the journey from traditional elements utilized for making FSSs structures up to three-dimensional FSS geometries. In addition to the shapes of the FSS structures, the focus has also been on the design and analysis of the geometries for numerous applications. An inherent property of FSSs is their capability to act as spatial filters when substituted in the electromagnetic radiation environment. Also, the spatial filtering mechanism exhibited by the FSSs is reported indicating the differentiation on the basis of applications and frequency ranges on which these surfaces are exposed.

description: Eine spezielle Herausforderung im Prozess der Evaluierung der arbeitsplatzbezogenen Belastungen ist die Entwicklung von Maßnahmen und diese effektiv und effizient überzuführen in den betrieblichen Alltag. Aktuell können die Verwendung von geprüften und praxistauglichen Instrumenten und der Erhebungsprozess selbst schon als recht gut eingeführt gesehen werden. Dennoch zeigen sich in der Umsetzung der gesetzlichen und qualitativen Anforderungen und dem gleichzeitigen Gerecht-werden organisationaler Faktoren (z.B. Unternehmensgröße, Schichtsysteme, Matrixstrukturen, Agile Teams,…) in der Ausarbeitung von Interventionen Unsicherheiten für viele Unternehmen, aber auch externe BeraterInnen. Dahinter stehen u.E. Unklarheiten in einzelnen Details von arbeitspsychologischen Konzepten und gerade die Anzahl der unterschiedlichen Modelle.

Aus der Erfahrung von erfolgreich durchgeführten Arbeitsplatzevaluierungen bzw. Gefährdungsbeurteilungen psychischer Belastungen in mehr als 250 Unternehmen verschiedenster Branchen und Unternehmensgrößen (2 bis über 9.000 MitarbeiterInnen) können Schlüsselaspekte für die nachhaltige Entwicklung von Maßnahmen formuliert werden. Abseits von linearen S-T-O-P Regeln können mit den MitarbeiterInnen in Workshops nachhaltige Lösungen entwickelt werden. Die Befragungsmethode (OrgFit und weitere Assessment-Tools) und das prozessorientierte Vorgehen sind dabei zentrale Erfolgsfaktoren, die gemeinsam mit der Karl-Franzens-Universität entwickelt wurden. Die aus unserer Sicht wichtigsten Punkte möchten wir als praktische Erfahrung gerne im Zuge eines Workshops/Arbeitskreises oder Fachvortrags mit den TeilnehmerInnen des 20. Workshops „Psychologie der Arbeitssicherheit und Gesundheit“ teilen.

description: The optimum systolic blood pressure (BP) after endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischaemic stroke is uncertain. We aimed to perform an updated meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of more intensive BP management compared to less intensive BP management. We searched various electronic databases to retrieve relevant RCTs on the clinical effects of more intensive BP management after endovascular thrombectomy compared to the less intensive management. We calculated odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for dichotomous outcomes. Our meta-analysis included four RCTs with a total of 1560 patients. More intensive BP management (<140 mmHg) was associated with a statistically significant decrease in the number of patients showing functional independence (modified Rankin scale [mRS] score = 0–2) at 90 days (OR 0.69; CI = 0.51–0.94). Regarding 90-day mortality, our pooled results showed no statistically significant difference between the two groups (OR 1.21; CI = 0.89–1.65). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding the incidence of intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) (OR 1.09; CI = 0.85–1.39) and the incidence of symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage (sICH) (OR 1.11; CI = 0.75–1.65). According to our meta-analysis, the intensive BP lowering group decreased the number of patients showing functional independence at 90 days. We found no benefit of the intensive lowering of BP on mortality rates and incidence of ICH compared to the conservative BP management. Future large-scale trials should focus on other interventions to improve prognosis in these patients.

description: The goal of taxonomic literature is to describe taxonomic diversity as a result of charting the Earth's biological diversity. As research adds to our knowledge, our understanding of taxa increases with additional published results. This is how it has happened since the standard publications by Linnaeus in 1753 and 1758 in the format of taxonomic treatments, clearly delimited sections of text about a particular taxon. Later, material citations were added, providing an explicit link to the material that led to the published research result. Each treatment has a nomenclatural section including the referenced taxonomic name representing the usage of a specific citable name. Thus, the taxonomic name Apis mellifera L, 1758 refers to the taxonomic treatment published by Linnaeus 1758 on page 576. Later usage of the name cites this treatment thereby adding new research to the scientific corpus. From a semantic point of view, a treatment and a material citation provide context to the content. For example, a geo-coordinate or specimen code in a material citation are references to a specimen which is a reference to the taxon of the treatment in which the material citation is in the text of a publication. While this can be easily perceived by a human, machines depend on the treatment, treatment citation, material citation and taxonomic name annotations for recognizing this relationship. These elements are in most cases distinct entities discoverable and annotatable by machines, can support human curation, but even better, the annotations can be embedded in prospective publications like those championed by Pensoft and the European Journal of Taxonomy. Over the last 15 years, Plazi has been spearheading efforts to develop TaxPub, a schema modeling the taxonomic treatments, as well as material citations. Plazi has developed a processing workflow to discover these elements, make them open and citable using TreatmentBank and the Biodiversity Literature Repository and reused in collaboration with the Global Biodiversity Information Facility. Currently 730,000 treatments and over 1M material citations have been liberated from 51,000 publications. They have also been made reusable by GBIF, including over 80,000 taxa that are in GBIF only because of Plazi-provided treatments.

description: Bipartite networks provide an insightful representation of many complex systems, ranging from mutualistic species interactions
 in ecology to financial investment portfolios of banks.
 In order to unveil genuine properties of real-world structures,
 statistical comparisons with appropriately defined null models
 are necessary. Among other frameworks, entropy-based
 null models have proven to perform satisfactorily in providing
 benchmarks for testing evidence-based hypotheses, showing
 the desirable feature that the resulting graph probability
 distributions are generally unbiased and often analytically
 tractable. Moreover, applying these models to empirical data
 permits to reveal 'second-order' phenomena by discounting
 selected topological properties. In this thesis, we present
 the bipartite exponential random graph formalism and develop
 a novel method for obtaining unbiased and statistically validated
 monopartite projections from bipartite networks, the
 so-called grand canonical projection algorithm. We apply our
 methods to the social MovieLens database and the International
 Trade Network, and show that nontrivial communities
 can be detected in the projections. In particular, in the
 trade network our approach succeeds in distinguishing between
 countries of different economic developments and detects
 a signal of specialization among the general tendency of
 export diversification. The formalism developed here is general
 and promises applications in other fields where bipartite
 structures are present.

description: Background The optimum systolic blood pressure after endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke is uncertain. We aimed to perform an updated meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of more intensive blood pressure management as compared to less intensive blood pressure management. Methods We searched various electronic databases including Embase, MEDLINE (via PubMed), and CENTRAL to retrieve relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the clinical effects of more intensive blood pressure management after endovascular thrombectomy as compared to the less intensive management. We assessed the risk of bias using the revised Cochrane “Risk of bias” tool for randomized trials (RoB 2.0), calculated odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for dichotomous outcomes. Results Our meta-analysis included 4 RCTs with a total of 1560 patients. According to our analysis, more intensive blood pressure management (<140 mmHg) was associated with a statistically significant decrease in the number of patients showing functional independence (modified Rankin scale mRS score = 0-2) at 90 days (OR 0.69; CI = 0.51-0.94; I2 = 44%). Regarding 90-day mortality, our pooled results from three RCTs showed no statistically significant difference between the more intensive blood pressure management group and the less intensive blood pressure management group (140-180 mmHg) (OR 1.21; CI = 0.89-1.65; I2 = 0%). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding the incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) (OR 1.09; CI = 0.85-1.39; I2 = 0%) and the incidence of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) (OR 1.11; CI = 0.75-1.65; I2 = 0%). Conclusion According to our meta-analysis, the intensive blood pressure lowering group was associated with a lower number of patients showing functional independence at 90 days We found no benefit of the intensive lowering of blood pressure on mortality rates and incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage as compared to the conservative BP management. Future large-scale trials should focus on other interventions to improve prognosis in these patients.

description: The present study focused on the identification of tropolone derivatives in the essential oils of black turmeric (Curcuma caesia Roxb.). Cyclohepta[b]furan-2-ones and azulene compounds to which tropolone might be the precursor were detected in the essential oils. Predominant compounds present were curzerenone (51.11–70.26%), curzerene (1.85–3.62%), germacrone (3.64–12.54%) and eremanthin (3.9–5.08%). The efficacy of extracted essential oil (BTC) and tropolone (TC) on postharvest quality of edible coated mangoes was studied during storage at 28 ± 2 °C (RT) and 9 ± 2 °C (LT). Treated mangoes showed lower water loss and higher firmness than control mangoes at both temperatures. β-carotene and sugar content increased in the mangoes stored at RT indicating ripening with higher TSS (Total Soluble Solids) and lower acidity (p < 0.05). Phenolic and flavonoid concentration was retained in the coated mangoes at LT. The study concluded that the BTC and TC mangoes at LT extended the shelf life with delayed ripening.

A quantitative analysis of news consumption on Facebook

Publisher: name: IMT Alti Studi Lucca

Subjects: QA75 Electronic computers. Computer science

description: The advent of social media and microblogging platforms has
 radically changed the way we consume information and form
 opinions. Despite the importance given by the scientific community
 to these changes in news production and consumption,
 not much is certain about the spreading and consumption
 patterns through social media platforms. This thesis does
 an in-depth quantitative analysis of news consumption and
 polarization on Facebook, taking into account factors such as
 trust in news, confirmation bias and cognitive dissonance.
 First, we explore the anatomy of the English news by characterizing
 on a global scale the news consumption patterns of
 376 million users over a time span of six years. Second, we
 compare the selective exposure and polarization of France,
 Germany, Italy and Spain (86M users), and present a model
 of selective exposure that considers trust in the emergence of
 communities. Finally, we analyze the polarization on the vaccination
 debate over time (2.6M users).
 Our findings show that confirmation bias and homophily are
 present in the users' consumption of news, which leads to
 polarization and the creation of homogeneous communities.
 We also find that the preferences of users and news providers
 differ. By tracking how Facebook pages like each other and
 examining their geolocation, we find that users have a more
 cosmopolitan perspective of the information space than news
 providers. In addition, we devised two simple models of
 selective exposure that reproduce the observed connectivity
 patterns.
Low health literacy impact on headache diagnosis

description: Health literacy has a broad range of impacts, including whether and where a person seeks treatment and how well that patient interprets and applies clinical recommendations. Patients with headache may not seek treatment, may fail to disclose even severe pain to their physician, and may not understand or adhere to treatment. Universal precautions can be a helpful initial approach, and information styles can be modified as needed over time. Patients should be asked about headache and explanations about headache causes and treatment should be given in everyday language. The teach-back method can confirm if patients understand instructions. Health literacy can impact how patients perceive their headaches and how well they adhere to treatments. Health literacy is a two-way street; it depends on the patient’s ability to understand and act on clinical information and the clinician’s ability to give clear information. Language and cultural barriers can adversely impact health literacy, even in patients who otherwise have good understanding of medical advice. While health literacy can impact outcomes, those with low or very high health literacy are most likely to be non-adherent, albeit for different reasons. Clinical action plans can be valuable for those with severe headache. Health literacy refers to those skills that impact how well a patient can understand a medical condition, clinical advice, and adhere to treatment. Health literacy starts with the ability of a person to access the healthcare system to seek treatment in the first place, then the ability to understand the medical condition, and finally the ability to comprehend and act on physician advice or recommended treatments. The best approach for clinicians is to assume that patients have low health literacy and adjust their communications style over the course of the clinic visit. Low health literacy does not necessarily mean the patient is not literate or ill-informed, only that they may not be familiar with medical explanations as to the mechanisms of their condition and how to treat it. Language and cultural barriers can also decrease the ability to understand and act on medical information. Headache is a very common condition, but not all patients seek treatment even when the headaches are frequent or severe. There are many types of headaches and diagnosing them requires careful consideration of pain locations, symptoms, pain descriptions, and other factors. This often requires a detailed patient interview. There are many myths about headache that may influence what patients believe about headache, their causes, and how to manage them.

 for a mutual agreement, to service execution, where service
 management is driven by the agreed requirements.
 Much work has been devoted to specification and enforcement of
 service quality terms in the Cluster, Grid and Cloud domains. However,
 the dynamism present in Cloud services is ignored. We propose
 a theoretical and practical framework which addresses the first
 phases of the service life cycle: (i) the definition of service provision;
 (ii) the negotiation of offers/requests expressed and (iii) the
 service deployment, mainly focused on latency-sensitive applications.
 We introduce SLAC, a specification language for the definition of
 service requirements, the so-called service level agreements (SLAs),
 which allows us to define conditions and actions that can automatically
 modify those terms at runtime. Experimental results show
 that the use of SLAC can drastically reduce the service violations
 and penalties to the advantages of providers and consumers.
 Then, we define a novel matchmaking and negotiation framework,
 which evaluates the compatibility of SLAC requests/offers, and provides
 the modifications necessary to reach an agreement. Experiments
 demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposal.
 We also introduce a new scheduling algorithm for latency-sensitive
 services, in a Cloud/Edge computing scenario, which takes into account
 not only the service requirements but also network latency,
 bandwidth and computing capabilities. Again, experimental results
 confirm the advantages of this new approach over existing solutions.

description: Here we discuss the orientation of the megalithic Quadrangle of Stonehenge, created by its four Station  Stones. Stimulated by the recent proposal made by Timothy Darvill of a solar calendar embedded in the monumental sarsen stones, we investigate a possible role of the moon. At the same time, we invite the reader to use software to simulate the behavior of the moon, regarding lunistices (lunar standstills) and lunar phases. Thanks to software, we can appreciate how the full moon, rising and setting, along the long side of the Quadrangle in the case of major lunistices, is heralding the solstice. The Metonic cycle could also be considered as involved in the solar calendar proposed by Darvill.

Don't drink the water! Impacts of wild pig disturbance on forested watersheds

description: The wild pig (Sus scrofa) is one of the most destructive invasive species in the United States and causes an estimated $1.5 billion of damage annually. While the physical damage is obvious, their impacts on local watersheds are relatively unknown. Understanding this relationship may improve management strategies and predict changes in ecosystems, especially as wild pigs are rapidly expanding their range. Our first hypothesis is that pig rooting in riparian zones increases sediment and other pollutants in surface waters due to erosion and sediment transport, affecting bank stability and water quality. Our second hypothesis is that pig disturbance of soil and detritus changes soil characteristics and impacts microbial activity, including nitrogen mineralization (NMIN), nitrification, and microbial biomass. We are examining water quality (physiochemical and microbial characteristics) and soil nitrogen responses in watersheds on a privately-owned property in southeast Alabama. Water samples are being collected to measure concentrations and loads of sediment (TSS), nitrate and ammonium, base cations and chloride (Ca, Mg, Cl), and E. coli and other fecal coliforms. Soil samples are being analyzed for NMIN, nitrification rates, and microbial biomass.

Preliminary results indicate that water quality is severely impacted by the presence of pigs. Analyses show that E. coli levels are much higher on average than reference levels in watersheds absent of pigs, and DNA analyses detected E. coli of wild pig origin at 7 of our 14 sampling sites. Nitrite levels are elevated while TSS and nitrate levels are low. This information is further evidence that pig eradication and control initiatives should be high priority for land owners and land managers to protect economic resources, wetland services, and even human health.While pig eradication is difficult and costly, management on private lands is necessary to halt the spread of pigs and their negative impacts on the landscape. Our research fills a gap of knowledge on the influence of pig damage in riparian systems and uncovers essential information that can influence management of this invasive species to safeguard water quality in local watersheds.

description: Using data from the 2013 American Community Survey, we found that 24.3 million people (about 1 in 4) who were either eligible for Medicaid/Children’s Health Inusrance Program (CHIP) or appeared likely to shop for Qualified Health Plan (QHP) lacked residential high-speed Internet. Specifically, 28.6% or 18.9 million people eligible for Medicaid/CHIP and 17.1% or 5.5 million people who appeared likely to shop for a QHP did not have high-speed Internet in the home. For both the Medicaid/CHIP eligible and those likely to shop for a QHP, the proportion of people living in households without Internet varied substantially by race, geography, and other socio-demographic characteristics.
